    What are y'all paying for a haircut these days?

    Now $36 plus a $10 tip. They used to have beer available, but the downtown restaurants complained. The place I went to in Winston Salem was $35 and included a hot towel treatment. Plus they had a beer cooler and the woman who cut my hair often had a bottle of whiskey to share. It was all female...

    NWS Pics that make you :lol: every time you see them NWS

    He did walk away. But the guy decided to follow him and engage instead so once he instigated by following and started swinging, clearly was self defense.

    Crazy Shit / F’ed Up Thread

    In college I was doing a back dive from the side of the pool. Coach said "some of you aren't getting out far enough". Didn't realize that comment was directed to me. Did my next attempt and caught the side of the pool with the crown of my head. A friend of mine on the other side of the pool...

    2005 Pontiac GTO | Retro Review

    GM thought all they had to do was slap a GTO badge on and it would be a success. Nothing about that car said GTO to those who knew the original. It looked like a Chevy Cavalier, only slightly bigger.

    Crazy Shit / F’ed Up Thread

    Our youngest was caught outside a couple of blocks from home when a thunderstorm rolled in. He and a friend were walking down the street headed to the house when lightning hit a tree about 30' away from them. Knocked both of them off their feet and part of the tree exploded all around them. It...

    The Caribbean Island talk thread

    Some friends of ours lived on Grand Cayman for a couple of years. They said it was nice, but after a while they felt really isolated and after the 4th hurricane said it was enough. They live in Canada now.

    High Cholesterol - Statin Drugs

    The colonscopy itself is not a problem. The prep though -- or the "night of a thousand waterfalls" --- is what I hate!

    High Cholesterol - Statin Drugs

    I've always had fairly low cholesterol even with a family history of high (both Mom and Dad). But this past year in my late 60's suddenly I had a spike. Heart is fine, no blockages, probably similar to you. Doctor prescribed atorvastin and within a month or 2 my cholesterol is way down. The...

    Scammed

    If you report it to Facebook they do nothing except tell you that the ad "doesn't violate our terms and standards". Which translates to, "as long as they pay to run the ad we don't give a shit if it is a fraud"

    I stopped doing back dives in college. We were working out at the pool and coach said, "some of you aren't getting out far enough on your back dives". Turns out he was talking to me but didn't want to point me out of the group. Next dive, hit my head on the side of the pool and fell into the...

    Should a spouse be named in parent’s Will?

    As an estate planning attorney I can give you the "attorney answer" ----- it depends. The estate plan is your Mother's and her assets. So it depends upon who SHE wants to include as a beneficiary in her plan. The plan you laid out - 50/50 between her children and with no grandchildren then...
