    Could my grave be on my land?

    I wasn’t being critical of your post. I used to fly for a company that did extensive record-keeping business with Service Corp…who owns ~90% of all funeral home operations… which resulted in an inside-view of the shenanigans the funeral-home business pulls on people when they are so...

    Elder Care

    We went thru this also. Older brother, me, younger sister…. Things were fine until Dad’s COPD finally got him. (USAAF gave kids cig’s as a “benefit” for the debrief when they returned from a mission…. addicted a whole generation to tobacco.) We didn’t know Mom’s increasingly argumentative...

    Could my grave be on my land?

    Do NOT fall for the belief that a “Funeral Home” or business will properly guide you. They are in the business of making Money off your Death….and are NOT reliable sources. Read the Law in your jurisdiction. In most cases it is quite legal to be buried on private land. The problem might be...

    Restaurants/Retailers Accepting Cash/Not accepting Cash and Charging a fee for Using a Card/ Labor Fee

    When I eat out and pay with CC …I Always leave the waiter’s Tip in CASH…. so the employee can get max benefit as well as use their own scruples whether or not to share or report it. The small family cafe where I like to have lunch will reduce the “tab” if Cash is paid instead of CC. No...

    Restaurants/Retailers Accepting Cash/Not accepting Cash and Charging a fee for Using a Card/ Labor Fee

    I don’t trust “digital” currency….if that is what “bitcoin” etc etc is… It’ll be a retrograde to “barter”…which never works for a sophisticated economy.

    Nylon protective sleeve

    Not as good as the dedicated-product…but “cheaping-out”…. when adding a diverter-valve for a top-link… I’ve used the legs cut out of some old bluejeans…. and the sleeves cut out of an old welding jacket. (primarily for abrasion-resistance as they route beneath the tractor)
