HippieChick58 comments on Dec 12, 2022:

Where I live we all have garages, and my car is always parked in the garage. For a few weeks I did have a second car parked on the driveway, but that was temporary and is gone now. My neighbors complain about their cars parked on their driveways, how their cameras record strangers messing with thier cars. So many neighbors have garages full of junk and park on the drive. I don't understand it. @LiterateHiker, if you have the capability put a camera on your carport, they can be set to alert you for movement. The floodlight idea is also good. You might check with the local PD for what kinds of problems have been reported recently.

I don't like getting up in the dark. i don't like getting up when it is light out either, but darkness just makes it harder. Since we can't change it, I just deal with it and wait for warmer weather to return. And it will, sooner than we think it will.

There is nothing he could do, aside from dying that would bring him higher in my regard, and I am doubtful of the dying. What I want to know is if there is a master behind that puppet, or is Trump smart enough to know what he is doing? Where does he come up with this stuff. Who is pulling his strings.

Then when I left dad's house I joined the Army and I didn't watch TV for a long time after that, and then living overseas with the military. I don't know that I've ever seen an episode. I remember hearing about it and that is about it.

HippieChick58 comments on Dec 3, 2022:

I like this as an example of how language is fluid and grows to fit the needs of the speakers/peoples/times. And yes, there is one side of the issue that is making it a pejorative, but I think it is actually a very good thing. I am woke to the inequality of life, and I want to help to change it. I am woke to the BS in the red side, and I hope they all fall into a fiery pit and very soon.
