For smaller first degree burns. Not for second or third degree.

Don't. No butter either. Or toothpaste. None of that old wive's tale type of stuff. It doesn't help anything, and will just make things worse.

Let us know how long that extra money stays in your account. I'll bet not long...

"I've got a headache." "Hung over?" "Don't know what hit me. I took that one last sip and really got smashed!"

Was the cracking noise loud enough to startle you, to cause you to blink your eyes? Sometimes a blink may be mistaken as a flash. A more generalized flash - your flash sounded small and localized per your description though. I would put my money on the crack being associated with a small...

How did you cook that pork chop? Grilled? Pan seared?

Why do we pay people to study the dumbest things and come up with the most obvious conclusions? https://coloradosun.com/2024/04/19/fighting-wildland-fire-with-beavers-colorado/ Yeah, well since water doesn't burn, I can see how anything that causes water to pool (beavers included) might be...

Is THAT supposed to convince anyone that it's an actual photograph? Sophisticated, yes. Photograph, no. Not even close.

You gotta wonder about the kind of person who would come across this new A.I. high tech stuff, think hard about what they wanted to do with it, and then decide, "Hey Siri, make me a photo of babies dressed up as Brussel's sprouts!" Yep, you do have to wonder about people like that.

Ha! I used to do that. These days I sit down to read. Sometimes that puts me right back to sleep. If not, I get a lot of reading done in the middle of the night.

We use that foil covered foam board to close up our fireplace. We never use it anymore, so we cut a piece of that foam to wedge into the front part of the fireplace for insulation and to block drafts. When we close the glass doors that are in front of the fireplace, you don't notice the shiny...

We need animal alarms for the stupid woodpeckers. Those damn house destroyers. We've been using the alarm built into our Ring Camera Flood Lights. Set that off, as stupid as it is, and the woodpeckers run for cover. But it's a manual trigger (from the cellphone app). The neighbors are...

Lead is used to block radiation (e.g., gamma rays). I don't think it will help much, if any, around an EMP. Mu-metal is used to block magnetic fields. These are the concern for EMP's, not radiation. "EMP" stands for "electromagnetic pulse". Any metal that is high in ferrous (iron) content...

That is the cleanest and most organized garage I've ever seen. Not that there's a whole lot of organization required. You've got like three things in the whole garage. We have thousands in ours. No room for any cars, no way. They have to fend for themselves out in the driveway in the snow.

Most wouldn't call it a dinner, but neither of us were terribly hungry. So we had smoothies! Coconut milk Almond milk (roasted coconut flavor) Bananas Mangoes Peaches Strawberries Blueberries

Who needs roads if you live in a place like that?

Along these same lines, can we REALLY expect people to accept having their hard earned money ripped from their hands and given to these "kids"? It's not my job to support everybody in the world who made a bad financial decision. If I agreed to that, it would be a whopper of a bad financial...

My eBooks are organized in the Calibre program. Lot's of ways you can find a book - by title, by series name, by author, by genre, by rating (my rating after having read it), etc. My physical books are stored wherever they fit, in whatever room where there is space. Some are horizontal on...

I use chopsticks as cleaning tools - they are good scrapers for getting gunk out of corners. And they don't mar things. I also use a chopstick to pry the paddle from my electric bread maker out of the loaf of bread, without scarring up the anti-stick coating. I reuse old drier anti-static...
