I would do a search for a small stand alone solar system. Will not be reliable in winter due to snow coverage, but should be more than enough for the summer. Keep in mind you need only to keep the...

This is all very rational, but as a society we are fixated on gas prices (and the S&P). Turn on the news (actual news, not opinion/commentary), and you'll get an update on every cent up or down. ...

Pretty much the same with me--no target mark, only vague symptoms, and some not believing it was anything.

I was very lucky that a doctor caught it early enough that I was fine within days. But...

It's been a few years since our last one, and we've loved all of them, so I was not really paying attention to price, but I think the under sink system is $2,000-3,000 and the filters that are...

Scott was a class act. Kind, knowledgeable, and forgiving with customers who are occasionally dopes. He was not about money, he was about helping people enjoy the lake.

A stand up guy who lost his truck in the ice and was broke would have stood up.

Whoa--glad you were OK, must have been terrifying.

Mistakes happen, and government needs to be flexible or forgiving with people who are broke. But the mollycoddling of this guy is ridiculous

Just how stupid do you need to be to envision an amateur pulling this thing out? Outrageous that the state/town have not extracted this professionally and given the guy the bill.

I agree that if a person can't swim they must wear a pfd. But that's no excuse for selling this wacky "boat". Plus, swimming skill is not much help while trapped underneath the boat

I feel better now--the reason the kitchen looks terrible is that the restaurant owner does not want the property sold.
