(I like Spam, BTW) We ate way too much government cheese and government meat when I was growing up. I got sick of spam and velveta almost before I ever had spam or velveta. Every time Union Carbide was on strike or had a layoff we got boxes of those shiny metal cans. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Niki1 1 #60 January 16, 2018 wmw999Maybe I haven't had enough of it. I still like creamed chipped beef (as well as creamed hamburger). Chicken a la king not as much, it's not as savory. Wendy P. Me too. I never had a problem with it even when I was in the army. But then growing up in a navy household we had fried bologna for a few days before payday.Most of the things worth doing in the world had been declared impossilbe before they were done.

Bob_Church 7 #62 January 16, 2018 Since there are several alerts there, and I wouldn't want to be the person who sent out a false alarm for a tidal wave either, I think they should have a sign next to it with a word that has to match the condition you've selected. incoming missile alert selected. enter MISSILE to confirm. Tidal wave warning selected. enter BIGWAVE to confirm and so on. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Even then, the page is so crude it looks like something whipped out just to test the functions, where nobody went back to design the "real" page before the system was rolled out.

OK I am curious. That seems an odd thing to aspire to - why? (If you don't mind me asking?) No, no problem. I just don't deal with the whole cattle car thing very well. I guess it's part of being spoiled, even at work I didn't have to deal with other people much more than I wanted to. i've only flown commercial twice in my life and I hated it both times, and that was before 9/11. If I need to then sure, I will but I'm fortunate enough that I don't need to fly for work or to visit family. And our favorite vacation spots are in Wisconsin and in Gulf Shores Alabama and either of those are easy drives. In fact, when you figure in having to rent a car and pare down what you take I think it's easier to drive to both. And the fact that the nearest airport is a little over 100 miles away doesn't help. That's not a big factor but they add up. It's like getting a root canal, I can if I have to, but I'd rather not. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
