M of O was always coming up with something like "The Lion bravely protects his Pride. *You* can protect *your* family with Mutual of Omaha insurance!"

I can hear the man's voice who did those

LOL.

Although I watch some retro TV once in a while, actually haven't come across that old series.

A good book and only $10.

this is one of the more remarkable things I learned about fishing kind of late in the game

when I was coming up, you knew nothing till someone showed you or told you. Today, there is online help

>>>

how often should you change your fishing line?

once every 6 months to 1 year

Mono and fluoro lines become brittle over time and weaken when they're exposed to saltwater and UV rays. I'd recommend changing it out at least once every 6 months to 1 year. And if you notice that it starts to coil, it's time to go ahead and replace it. For braided line, there's no reason to replace it within a year

I often order fajitas if we go to a Mexican restaurant. These restaurants use a lot of cheese, which I need to avoid, and I need to avoid guajillo pepper sauces, and these may be included without mention. Fajitas are a safe choice!

Somebody told me a long time ago, it's inauthentic

>>>

Are fajitas real Mexican food?

Authentic Mexican Cuisine: A Heritage of Tradition - Aqui es ...

Even fajitas are a Tex-Mex invention (offered to tourists in Mexico now because so many Americans associate fajitas as authentic). Tex-Mex is a cuisine only very loosely related to Mexican cuisine.
__

Fajitas have grown from obscure, South Texas roots to become a beloved mainstay of Mexican cooking. The history of fajitas, while somewhat blurred, belongs to the Rio Grande Valley of South Texas and northern Mexico, where skirt steak was often used as payment to vaqueros (Spanish for “cowboys”).

I have some interest in 'Light Horse' Harry Lee, read a biography some time ago

He wound up having a somewhat soiled reputation in the public memory, I believe. At least in my experience in talking to people I have observed this. People don't accept too well that he abandoned his family and died. That he had an illustrious early career and was also governor of Virginia seems to not carry enough weight in public memory, and didn't make it on Mt. Rushmore or any other pantheons.

If you read about him, though, his health was a problem; he was severely injured in a riot against a newspaper opposed to the War of 1812, getting himself in the thick of defending it due to a friendship with the editor. He was nearly killed and wasn't recovering from that well, having head injuries amongst other injuries. This we can say was not his fault, unless you want to criticize the wisdom of his actions.

He had another big problem that was his fault: debt in the time of debtor prisons. It seems to me he correctly had the vision that America, Virginia particularly, was going to grow and that real estate as a consequence was going to be a good investment. He didn't seem to realize that even in rapidly expanding America, real estate was only going to pay off in the long run for all but the most clever investors, making incurring debt a tricky business. Nor did he seem to know to be aware of the boom/bust cycle, investing during the 1790 bubble. Basically, he was not smart financially and no doubt this was made worse by his mental condition.

He spent time in debtor’s prison, and was looking at more of that. It sometimes is said he fled to the Caribbean for his health, but it was maybe more to avoid more prison. He really only had a choice to be useless to his family in that territory, or be useless by being in prison.

I came across a short list of the “financial no-nos” Lee committed, they include:

Quote:

* Lack of documentation of claims; 

* Loaning $40,000 to someone [he should have known was] unable to repay him; 

*Lack of priorities in spending his time—e.g., writing a 30-page manuscript on the evils of Thomas Jefferson at a time when he could have been putting his financial house in order; 

* Selling lands whose titles were often in doubt; 

* Selling land whose dimensions and boundaries were imprecise—for instance, buying what he believed to be a 300,000-acre tract, selling it to New England investors, only to have them stop payment when they learned it was only 133,874 acres; 

* Writing a bad check for a friend helping him pay his debts; 

* Buying land he couldn’t see even while being forced to sell land he knew, as when he insanely bought a tract in Georgia even as he coughed up Virginia property.

I was looking up the meaning of 'brisling' as to sardines, and apparently just a type, they tend to be small. Plus one other characteristic!

>>>

What is a bristling sardine?

The name came from Sardinia, a Mediterranean island that was one of the first areas to pack these fish for commercial consumption. Unlike other sardines, brislings are a specific species of fish, called sprats. They only live in icy northern waters.
__

are sardines gutted?

Typically, you can expect canned sardines to be gutted and descaled, and often, the heads and gills are also removed. But unless you buy a can specifically labeled as boneless and skinless, canned sardines will generally still contain both
__

Are brisling sardines gutted?

Following generations-old Norwegian sardine fishing practices, the brisling are “thronged” or held in the catch nets long enough to allow the natural cleansing of their digestive tracts. [in other words, "no" (not considered necessary)] [not sure what to expect for canned brislings in the US]

just watched a Dutch movie, 'Character' [1997] in which a bailiff was the bane of poor people, and his own son .... they would physically get orders of the court enforced, more active than, say, sheriffs of our time in the US. The suggestion seems to be this was very much so in earlier times, but evidence is they are still around over there in Europe.

What is a bailiff in Europe?

bailiff, a minor court official with police authority to protect the court while in session and with power to serve and execute legal process. In earlier times it was a title of more dignity and power.
__

What did a bailiff do in Medieval times?

Bailiff was the term used by the Normans for what the Saxons had called a reeve: the officer responsible for executing the decisions of a court. The duty of the bailiff would thus include serving summonses and orders, and executing all warrants issued out of the corresponding court.

Are there bailiffs in England?

A bailiff ('enforcement agent') may visit your home if you do not pay your debts - such as Council Tax bills, parking fines, court fines and county court, high court or family court judgments. [the link seems to indicate this is true today]

What are the four cardinal signs of Parkinson's disease?

rigidity: stiffness of the arms, legs, or neck.
tremor.
postural instability: balance issues.

How long can you have Parkinson's without knowing?

It's possible for non-motor symptoms to start occurring up to a decade before any motor symptoms emerge. Years can pass before symptoms are obvious enough to make a person to go to the doctor.
