How often does a fire extinguisher need to be serviced? We have three, one for the basement, kitchen, and upstairs but they haven't been used since we got them

Do they go bad or need service? Who does that?

Like, last I checked, I think Amtrak from KC to Omaha runs through either Chicago or LA

My big one is the dearth of north-south lines between the Mississippi River and the west coast. All those great plains routes are east-west

We did Amtrak from Chicago to Portland last year and my favorite delay was when we slowed down in Montana "because it's so hot that if we go any faster, the rails might explode"

I like mushrooms on pizza and I like mushrooms wrapped in bacon on the grill. Do 'em low and slow off direct heat like brats so the bacon grease doesn't start a fire. Fantastic crunch and squish full of flavor

I don't check them out at all, but I think Wired still does tech product reviews

I would've said Ollie Marmol, but he's kinda calmed down this season

So, what did the county get for selling off a hospital? Nothing but losing money and a blank space where hospital used to be

10.08.2025 03:50 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

I'm gonna cut this short, but after three sales, two bankruptcies, it's a tear down

This hospital was owned by the county, supported by donations, but then the Republican county committee didn't want to spend the money

I know this hospital and I can tell you about its decline and fall.

It once provided cancer, obgyn, emergency trauma services

You could birth a baby, Grandpa's cancer, nephews school physical

Find a feed store that can sell you red or white clover. It's not an immediate answer but it does work

If you call them "bromides" I don't know that I'd argue against you

I've been over here arguing for "polemic" and nobody ever listens to me

Probably because of my rants on the subject. Well, some of them might've been diatribes

If you do it enough, you'll shear off the pins that hold the lid to the hinge.

And, remarkably enough, zippo will still fix it

The video was taken in the dark with a potato, but it's basically putting sideways stress on a hinge that should just have vertical stress

Oh yeah, don't do that, it's a stupid trick that impresses nobody and you'll break your lighter
