The Swamp

Anyone recently bought appliances? I need to get some on order for the new house. Anything you love about your fridge/gas range/washer and dryer right now? Anything to stay away from? I've run the gamut on brands in three different houses over the past 10 years. Here is what can tell you: Despite h...

Guess I had the Red Wings in 2008. Other than that I'm in same boat as bengal except swap out the Griz for the Nuggets.

Seems high to me. Recent guys I have hired in Colorado seem to be about $120.

I agree with AB. Keep the Jetta since it's still in fine shape and, as you say, fun to drive. Don't give up on something that's working well. I also would not count on the Envoy making 200K. Sell the Envoy on your own if you think you can get more than you could towards a trade. What is it about GM ...

Sorry to hear...sounds like a lousy experience. I work in software so if/when you're ready to start looking again reach out and I can see what my company has available. We're always looking for technical folks.

But oh yes... I'm bringing theJeopardy! pen. Throwing it down on our table will be the equivalent of a Mike Tyson stare down with these hipster punks.

You should get t-shirt printed with that picture of you and Trebek and just roll in wearing that.

I was conducting a workplace investigation for a client that had a discrimination claim against them. The complaining employee was on medical leave for 3 months as a result of a high risk pregnancy, which her doctor supplied information requiring 3 months of bed rest. During the investigation, the ...

Clearly it was a salted pretzel

From a service/quality standpoint they are all kind of the same. The only real difference tends to be price. I've found that there is usually one or two that are cheaper than the rest for any given airport. Unfortunately, IMO, Denver is a stupid and expensive place to rent a car because each company...

Booked a last-minute (-ish - we leave in six weeks) trip to the Big Island (Kona Coast). Anyone ever been and have any must-dos? We're definitely going to Hawaii Volcanoes National Park and probably to Mauna Kea. Probably not interested in anything over on the Hilo coast since we'll probably only r...

The feds want their money from taxes. Not sure they care about the parenting aspect except in the sense that it was the impetus of the fraud. I'm sure you're correct. Bottom line is the FBI didn't indict kids involved because they clearly were not the ones responsible even though they are the ones ...

Therefore I would contend that the problem isn't the Olivia Jade's of the world...it's the people that like/follow/watch her. Seems rough to call a bunch of teen and pre-teen girls "the real problem with the world". I don't think they are the "problem with the world." Elite coll...

Saw Captain Marvel last night. Thought it was somewhere between good and great. From what I saw in the trailers I was worried I would not like Brie Larson as the character but I think she did a great job with it. The story was much better/a little more complex than I expected.

Who would of thought that graphic design work for minor league baseball teams would have been a solid career choice? With all the special uni's, name changes, etc. it has to keep a fair amount of people employed.

I knew pancreatic cancer is one of the fastest and most lethal, but damn. Stage 4 pancreatic cancer has a 1% survival rate, and the life expectancy is 2-6 months. My grandmother died from pancreatic cancer, and it was amazing how fast she deteriorated. That was 25+ years ago, but I don't think the ...

Is craft beer burning out? Pieces like this annoy me because it's intellectually lazy. While I am one of those guys who always prioritizes trying something new over what I've had before (even if it's excellent) I can still only go to places that are convenient (i.e. nearby). So if my usual places d...

As with most PFT stuff take with a grain of salt and guessing the bigger name isn't the person we all hope it is, but still interested.

Schefter is reporting the same thing...I'm hoping he got it independently sourced.

So our oven won’t start. You press BAKE, and then set the temperature, and then soon after it just clicks. No gas. The burners on the top work fine though. How much is this going to cost me to repair? I'm guessing your oven is newer (like within 10-15 years old) so it could be the control board...I...
