If I remember right the first (and maybe only) comment in the TECO source code was "Abandon all hope, ye who enter here".

If you have relatives from Europe look into citizenship via decent. My grandmother was born in Ireland and I was able to acquire Irish citizenship because of that. Now I have dual US/Irish citizenship

My wife still teaches "Consumer and Family Studies" in one of the few school systems here that still has that curriculum. From how amazed the kids are that you can prepare things from scratch I don't think there are too many parents and grandmothers out there cooking dinner. Mostly takeout and packaged goods.

PBS has a secondary channel here called Create that runs a lot of the older cooking shows during the evening and prime-time hours. Maybe take a look and see if it available in your area.

The S&P is growing because companies are borrowing to buy back their stock. It is illegal stock manipulation but that law is no longer enforced. This makes money that used to be taxed as dividends eligible for capital gains treatment and it taxed at a lower rate than it would be as dividends. this lowers tax income to the government. A downward spiral with no end in sight.

It is amazing to hear people that would find "3/5 a person" to be revolting talk this way when a vote doesn't go their way.

You are lucky you got a reply. All I got was another bill.

Disgusting. A bitter old man with a Don Quixote complex thinking he is going to ride in and save the day in a brokered convention.

And people wonder why I call my job "Data Janitor".

Google "nicaragua neighborhood watch". It doesn't need to be high tech.

Yes. In Massachusetts for a startup by MIT professors and graduates. MA will enforce NDAs and non-compete agreements. It is nothing like California here.

Because MBs during that era were basically Chryslers. MB picked up on the cost cutting when they owned Chrysler and produced a lot of junk during that time.In later years they got back to producing quality products.

If he will let them work from home I bet a few Yahoo employees would be willing to join on.

I have a cell phone and cash. A cell phone can never be what cash is. Anonymous.

Just look at the US tax code to figure out why most of the money in the hands of old white people. The tax benefits of IRA/401K accounts really favor people who have the guts to cut back on consumption and save over the years.That is all money that didn't get spent. Some say it increased the savings rate but did the increased savings really help the country?

"The people who generally have their financial shit together don't usually realize when it's pay day." isn't a specious argument. You would have enough to pay your bills whether or not you got paid for a multiple of months.An emergency fund that covers 6 months of expenses is the first step to having your financial shit in order.If you can manage that it gets easier.

They only time I notice I got paid is when I make a ATM withdrawal and see the balance go up.
