All of that old and unwanted gym and sporting equipment is not only recyclable, it can make you money, too. Hand weights are made mostly from iron, and even if there are some rubberized components attached to them, those are easily removed, and the rest is recyclable.
Now that the cable TV news networks are firing people left and right, how about if they fire Donald Trump? Sure, he can be a short-term ratings booster, but what about the long-term costs? If Tucker Carlson and Don Lemon could be shown the door, why not the most ubiquitous talking head of them all?
VERO BEACH, Florida – Three-quarters of a century ago, when Joe Biden and Donald Trump were children, this state was a backwater, both the smallest in the South and the smallest east of the Mississippi, ranked in the bottom half of the states by population and by home ownership. Its six members of the House – fewer than Oklahoma – were nobodies, representing a sprawling peninsula that was basically nowhere. It had enjoyed booms (land, citrus) and busts (land, citrus) in recurring waves of dreams and dross. The University of Florida had about the same student enrollment (2,604) as Vermont’s Middlebury College has now (2,526).
DEAR HARRIETTE: I recently went out with a friend of mine. She had a few too many drinks. I asked her not to drive home and offered to call her an Uber, but she was adamant that she was fine to drive. Knowing that wasn’t the case, I convinced her to let me order her some food in the hope that she would sober up a little bit, but she was still insistent on driving home.
The TSA agent looked stern — as they usually do. “I’d like to look inside this bag, ma’am,” he said. “No problem!” I always sound a little too eager when being questioned by an authority figure. I’m trying so hard to prove I have nothing to hide that I sound like I must have something to hide.
For every action in politics there is a reaction, and here is proof: The Dobbs decision last June, repealing a national right to abortion, was a devastating blow to women personally, but a huge benefit to Democrats politically.
DEAR HARRIETTE: My youngest daughter is graduating from college this year and is looking forward to moving in with her older sister when she graduates. Both girls live in a different state than me. While I love them both, I am hesitant about this decision. My older daughter has always been a bit malicious and mean to her little sister, and I’m not comfortable with them living together without my presence there to supervise. I’m worried about the potential of a toxic relationship developing between the two of them.
Dear Doctors: Could you please write about hormone replacement therapy in menopause? It got labeled as dangerous due to a single study, which I’ve read is considered to be flawed. I started HRT before that study came out, and it saved my health, my ability to continue working and my marriage.
Dear Editor: I personally, and on behalf of the Western Plains Genealogical Society, want to thank you for the coverage your paper gave for our recent Clinton Cemetery tour.
