Your tax dollars at play.
Not mine; I've not called the state "home" in decades. Tho we do pay
toll on the Thruway when driving it and sales tax on most purchases (groceries are exempt), we don't pay income and other taxes (property/school taxes are MUCH higher than what we pay.
But if you go there to visit frinds/relatives or even if you are just passinng thru you will be somehow taxed. Or if you replace a
Cornigware cooking vessel.
Basically, what I said. (G) When Steve was in the Army, he changed his home of record from NC (where we'd lived before he went in) to NY,
where his family lived. Active duty stationed outside the state didn't have to pay state taxes, income or otherwise but when we were in
Savannah, he got a letter from NY saying he owed so many thousand
dollars in state taxes. He sent them proof he'd been outside of the
state except for less than 30 day periods; they dropped their claim.
Here in NC military retirement pay isn't taxed if you went in before
1985, which he did.

they'd go out for supper). Dad learned to enjoy salads so he and mom
had them at home more often. Trouble is, they liked bleu cheese
dressing; when I visited, I had to make my own dressing as bleu cheese
is one I do not like. 1,000 Island is quick, easy and made with stuff
they kept on hand. Steve grew up with home made Italian (oil, vinegar
and herbs) dressing so we do that quite often.
I, OTOH, really like the blue-veined cheeses.Beit bleu, Stilton, roquefort, Gorgonzola, or whatever.
I don't mind small amounts on a cracker or similar but as a salad dressing, it's too much bleu for me.
There are two versions of "Russian" dressing. One is very 1000
Islands ike (mayonnaise based) and the other is closer to
Catalina dressing. Neither has been near the USSR. Bv)=
This is my preferred sauce w/o cheese in/on it:

Looks good, maybe I'll give it a try sometime soon. It looks similar to the dressing that was set out (in individual cups with lids) at the
Purple Heart banquet we went to last Saturday.
Yesterday (07 August) was the actual "Purple Heart Day"
I know, George Washington issued the first Purple Hearts on that day. Since 2009, Wake Forest has had (except for 2020) a banquet to honor Purple Heart recipients in the area. The first one was held in
November, 2009, in the seminary gymnasium. Nine recipients were honored then; I think we had 46 this year, including a 104 year old WWII pilot. Steve's Hebrew professor, retired Marine, was on the PH committee so he invited us, knowing Steve was retired Army. I think we missed a couple
in the first few years because of travel but have attended most of
them. The guest speaker is always interesting; last year it was Jessica Lynch. This year's speaker was a suvivor of the SCUD bombing of the barracks in 1991 that killed 28 (?) members of the PA National Guard.
Our banquet is the first Saturday in August; back in 2021, we had it as
an outdoor event and it rained buckets! Moved back inside in 2023. Our Legion Auxiliary has a set up of light finger foods for the honorees in the afternoon, something to tide them over until supper--it's always interesting to talk to the (mostly) men, a few women, when they come
over to get their food.

So, how did you manage to not pay sales tax when you went shopping? Or
did you not worry about it because the hassle wouldn't save you much?

Today's Purple Heart originally was "Badge for Military Merit". It
became what we know now as the Purplr Heart in 1932 (George's bicentennial). My father, who never left the US got a Purple Heart
when he suffered a broken shoulder opening a hanger door at N.A.S.
North Island (Sandy Eggo) to get plances in the air during an alert
caused by the sightiing of a Japanese submarine. He was somewhat embarrassed by it.

We paid taxes while shopping there. If it was something durable that
we brought back home with us, we kept the reciept. We can take the difference (if it's a higher tax rate than NC) off of our NC taxes.
I kept reciepts for the 2 trips we made earlier this year, marking
with a highlighter, ones that had durable goods on them. I'll sort
them out in a bit, filing those away for tax time, others will be
shredded or tossed.

Got some good news for you--the rules have changed and you can join the American Legion. Go down to the post you want to join with a copy of

you, you can use Steve's name as he verified the change for me. (G) The Legion is open to all honorably discharged vets but the VFW is only if

The problem there being that all of my records were lost in the
Jefferson Barracks on July 12, 1973, when a disastrous fire at the National Personnel RecordsCenter (NPRC) destroyed approximately 16-18 million Official
Military Personnel Files (OMPF). The records affected: No duplicate
copies ofthese records were ever maintained, nor were microfilm copies produced.
And my framed discharge and paper copy of my DD214 were lost in *my*

We either shred or toss into the paper recycle bag. The town issues one can for recycling so we have to co-mingle paper, glass, plastic, etc
but until it goes outside, I separate the paper from the rest of it. A
few years ago they let us upgrade our recyle can (plastic, covered bin)
to one the same size as the regular trash (95 gallon) and then use the older (about 60 gallon) for yard waste. We usually have more in the
recyle bin than the regular trash one so it was a no brainer offer for

This time around, yes. Located where we are, we usually don't get major effects from a coastal storm, usually more rain (which produces local flooding) and wind. Last fall's Helene gave us rain, but not as bad as even a couple of hours west of us.

Since I can't print Fido from this computer, I looked it up at the
source and printed it, will probably try it this fall.
Are you using the Netbook? I have a wi-fi dongle on mine so it can
talki to the other comptuers as well as my printer.

Dodged that bullet then.
This time around, yes. Located where we are, we usually don't get major effects from a coastal storm, usually more rain (which produces local flooding) and wind. Last fall's Helene gave us rain, but not as bad as even a couple of hours west of us.
Sometimes when ahurricane hits along thee Gulf of Mexico - like
Katrina in '05,it will come right up theMississippi and give us an unwelcome bath.. And spawn tornadoes. Eeeeeewwwww.
We were in Hawaii when that hit--but out there at one point one summer,
we had 5 hurricanes coming at us. There was enough ocean between us and them that they all fizzled out before hitting land.

This looks like a dandy if you like maple syrple - I'd use B'/rer
Rabbit dark molasses in its place.

It does look good; I'd keep the maple syrup tho.
That's you. For some reason I have never cared for "tree blood". Be it
on panquakes, or as an ingredient is sauces or even in candy. I've participated in making maple syrup, etc. and it's kinda neat. But something in the flavour just puts my teeth on edge.

I'm using an HP, not quite as small as a net book or tablet, not quite
as big as a full on laptop. In a way, it is a lap top as I just curl up
in a recliner with the computer on my lap.

Aren't Pacific hurricane called "typhoon" (from "tai fun" or"supreme wind")
I can recommend "Typhoon" byJoseph Conrad for your reading pleasure.

I have three Asus EEE PCs that I have picked up over the years. Mostly
I use them as jukeboxes - playing music while I work on something.
