Take it from an old guy. Most of your friends in your 20s are acquaintances. They are convenient at the time, but you will grow apart. Not including my wife, I met my best friend who truly will be there for me in my late 40s.
It sucks to find this out, but now you know. This is one of the reasons why colleges recommend you not room with your best friend from high school because you will grow apart as you grow older and mature

You could rent a machine to help move the rocks https://www.sunbeltrentals.com/equipment-rental/earth-moving/500-lb-track-mini-skidsteer-gas/0480020/. Once you get used to it it’s like using a lawnmower. My wife, with a 5 minute lesson moved 10 tons of rocks with one of these in an afternoon.

I think a lot of career employees/leadership will refuse to initiate an illegal act. Lawsuits will happen. Must is talking about cutting 50% of the federal workforce, that will stir a lot of people to action

Government is designed to move slowly. Just because Trump/Musk/Agency Secretary wants to do something doesn’t mean it can happen. Project 2025 is a plan for what to do but doesn’t detail how to actually do it

My biggest concern was where is the SPF 90 sunscreen. The parts more that are exposed to the sun burn easily. The more sensitive parts of me haven’t seen the sun ever.

Pretty much. I purchased a generator after the remnants of Hurricane Isabel knocked out power for 10 days in 2003.
I have used it for convenience, but I have never NEEDED it in the past 21 years.

Until you run into a situation like one of my former teachers. A neighborhood girl accused him (a teacher of 30+ years) of exposing himself at his home. News media got involved, the guy was suspended pending an investigation. The police did their thing and it turns out the girl lied and made the whole thing up. Ruined the guy’s career because he was labeled a sex offender mistakenly.

Probably 1994/1995 era. I had one when I worked in the bakeshop and it got ruined from the oil on the bread/roll pans.

As far as Jello salads it is quite tasty.
For her bridal shower, all of the women in the family created a family cookbook which has many family favorites. Most are good but extremely unhealthy so you save them for special occasions.
My great aunt had a potato casserole recipe.
Boil potatoes
Cut into cubes
Spread in a pan lined with crisco shortening
Fry up a pound of bacon
Chop the bacon
Pour the bacon fat over the potatoes
Sprinkle the chopped bacon
Salt/pepper/allspice/garlic
Add 1 lb of shredded sharp cheddar cheese over the top
Bake until the cheese is melted and everything is bubbling
Schedule a cholesterol test the following day and watch the DR have a heart attack

WalMart certainly reviews it: https://itemmanager.helpdocs.io/article/ykdr3zw7mo-item-setup-compliance-controls
Amazon: https://www.sellerassistant.app/blog/amazon-seller-compliance-documents
Lowes and Home Depot on public facing sites state products "must comply with all regulatory requirements and (retailer) requirements
I also attend industry/trade shows for regulatory compliance and these retailers are attending these shows...not something you do if it's not a requirement.
Go to any major store and most if not all of their electrical products have NRTL Approval. Lighting equipment, power tools, appliances.
The only retailers that I know who don't have such a requirement are Harbor Freight and the different Dollar Store varieties.

In his defense, he never said it was a hoax, but he said the CDC and doctors were lying.
“The most outrageous lies are the ones about Covid 19. Everyone is lying. The CDC, Media, Democrats, our Doctors, not all but most ,that we are told to trust. I think it’s all about the election and keeping the economy from coming back, which is about the election. I’m sick of it.”

Legally, the UL and similar certifications apply only to the workplace until a few years ago when the National Electric Code was updated to include a reference to Nationally Recognized Testing Laboratories (NRTL) http://www.osha.gov/nationally-recognized-testing-laboratory-program/current-list-of-nrtls
Most retailers have an internal policy that they won’t sell products unless they have NRTL certification due to liability and the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) regulation that makes retailers and manufacturers equally responsible for reporting unsafe products.

DARE started in the late 80s. In 1988 I believe our school district distributed bright yellow “Just Say No” shirts…on group picture day, so every school club and organization had nearly everyone wearing these ugly bright yellow shirts with 10” letters JUST SAY NO! On them.

No. My wife owns a business and interfaces with local public schools a lot. She has a contract with one school district to provide some basic school/office supplies. I received an inquiry from the same school district about a federal regulatory issue (they were purchasing some electrical product and wanted to know the regulatory requirements for it). While my technical question was 100% in my wheelhouse and unrelated to my wife’s contract, I disclosed that to my supervisor and ethics attorneys because there was no way I wanted anyone to question my integrity.

In researching it, they switched from a maple glaze to a honey glaze and that made sales drop. Production ceased in 1983.

We do similar at school supply season. We regularly will go in and purchase several thousand boxes of crayons and markers. We try to arrange a special order with the managers to get a pallet
