    Rationing again?

    Available everywhere here! Much of this is supply chain issues-Because of labor shortages there are 100s of container ships anchored off the west coast ports waiting to off load-stuff that is on ships is not in the supply chain and thus not on your walmart shelves. We have not seen rationing...

    Remote work

    I cannot do the majority of what i do remotely. I was out of the office for about a month last spring and the only thing that we could accomplish was online refresher training in some areas. Additionally, I work for an organization that operates 24/7/365 and the period of time when some people...

    What are your worst fears?

    Dementia-it runs in my family-great grandmother, grandfather, mother-probably back farther but no good records-i watch all three of them and it terrifies me.

    End scene in “Jungle Cruise”. (Caution: spoiler alert)

    We saw it yesterday-first time to a theater since December of 19-Streaming is okay but the theater is nice. Jungle Cruise was just the right vibe-campy, and fun but we did not expect anything else so it was perfect.

    What do you keep on top of the fridge/freezer?

    empty egg cartons. They go back to my friends who have hens and get exchanged for full ones.

    Many large websites down

    DNS server outages-they happen and can impact wide swaths of the NET-forunately they tend to get resolved fairly quickly

    European Christmas Markets

    Outstanding! Everything was awesome. The only think we decided we would change-and its on us-is the first trip we booked a room with fixed windows below the water line to save $$. We could hear the boats we passed and Locks as we passed through them at night so decided to book a higher level...

    European Christmas Markets

    We LOVE AMA-great food, great rooms, great people, They are definately a luxury line just a little less high profile and a little less advertised than Viking or Avalon.

    European Christmas Markets

    I know most of the responses were regarding easy123 but we are also traveling 12/22-we are using AMA Waterways rather than Viking -our first cruise with them was amazing and they are friendlier in terms of payment. I did book with an agent because i have a dear friend who is an agent who does a...

    Do your young children...

    My children are older than a good many of you. But no TV in the bedroom-we had one in the house. If you needed to relax or decompress you had books and were welcome to read or when very small be read to. One shared family computer until they needed laptops for university. One shared cellphone...

    Northern Lights?

    I have seen them from my parents backyard in Northwest Wyoming but it was close to 40 years ago. In the fall-cool but warm enough to lie on a blanket on the lawn and watch them. I think they were visible in Northeast Wyoming a couple of years ago. If you can see them there Montana and Northern...

    Phoenix & Sedona

    The Desert Botanical Gardens in Pheonix are pretty awesome. Maybe as an evening thing as it is quiet hot and dry in that area right now.

    I am security mad

    Himmmmm-i do cyber security for a living-don't get to comfortable that you are 'safe'. Most of your protections are more porous than you think, and you just shared with the entire internet what they are. .....................
