Shoes sizes haven’t changed I’m sorry to tell you guys, your feet have. Foot ligaments loosen and feet both spread and lengthen. It happens with age, or pregnancy or taking up running. So unless you’ve recently gone on an extreme health kick or birthed a child, you’re getting old. 😜
Note: Due to inflation dirty deeds will no longer be done dirt cheap.
I have a buddy that thought his feet were getting smaller, but it was eventually explained to him that when he was getting Blundstones online he was seeing the AUS sizing.
Wore the 11’s I bought on Sunday to work today and they are 110% more comfortable than the 10’s.

My wife has borrowed some books from Kindle and a good number of them have notes and comments from previous readers. Is that normal and if so, is there a way to get rid of them?
Tried to copy on my phone not working but yes. Google delete other peoples notes on kindle. It’s a pretty simple process, you have to turn it off in Aa.My wife has borrowed some books from Kindle and a good number of them have notes and comments from previous readers.

Not sure where else to put this, but I'm looking for advice from the hive mind...
I rent cars from Hertz a lot (due to corporate discount), and every single time I make a reservation, I get a receipt that says: "Due at time of rental: $xxx.xx USD". Lower down on the reservation email it says, "NOTE: There may be discrepancies between charge detail amounts and totals. Total amounts are correct."
Every single time I pick up the car and drive away, I get a receipt from Hertz that lists my total amount due well over what was listed in my initial reservation, ranging from a few dollars to $20+.
Every single time I get home I immediately send an email to Hertz asking them to fix the charges.
Every single time they refuse to do it, and sometimes they give me Hertz points and a half-assed apology.
(This past time they barely even responded: "After further review, I regret to inform you that the charges billed were valid.")
I certainly can't be the only one this is happening to--I assume people are just forgetting to reconcile their expenses, don't care, etc. But this can't be legal, right? I have looked through the rental terms and conditions and it does not say anything related to the charges other than what is listed above.
My question is this: is this the kind of thing one brings to the attorney general to look into, especially considering this is a repeated pattern? I don't really care about the money, but this has to be against some sort of law, right? Am I just crazy?
Given Hertz's habit of allowing people to get arrested in rental cars due to having reported the car stolen months or years before and never updating when the "stolen" car is returned a few hours or days later, while still sending the car out on a new rental, I think someone would have to put a gun to my head to get me into a Hertz car.
More directly to your question, I'd need to see... what is it that they're tacking on?
B1G refs... corrupt, or just incompetent?
It’s entirely unclear as the fees don’t match up at all.
Been wearing size 10 shoes for over 30 years. Though I’ve feeling some soreness in the tips of my toes and shoes/boots fitting tighter. I’ve been on a water pill for the last six months and at night when I get ready for bed I notice my ankles do swell at times. Yesterday we were at the outlet mall in Eagan and I tried on a new pair of shoes for work. I had my feet measured and now I’m a size 11.
I did play Dr. on Google to see if there is any scientific evidence that your feet can grow at 49. Though I really didn’t find anything to back it up either way. Might just have to talk to a doctor at work tomorrow to see what their opinion is.
I posted about this over a month ago. And after switching to up a size my feet and foot problems have pretty much disappeared. I also had a chance to talk to a podiatrist who's a friend of mine. And she said it's very normal and gave me all these medical terms that I don't remember... lol!!!

I have never had an issue with Hertz and the price...but if you are having those types of issues maybe try paying upfront and seeing if that alleviates it.

Unfortunately with my corporate rate code it doesn't let me pre-pay... That would be awesome though!
I'm still tempted to report them to the attorney general for deceptive business practices, but part of me says, "What are you thinking??? That's ridiculous..."
I frequent Marketplace other sites like Craigslist. And it amazes me how many people sell stuff used for more than it would be new. And people are buying the stuff… lol!!!
Though I find stuff all the time for a bargain. And I’m always up for bargain and may barter. Pawn shops are another place to find bargains. And it’s a marathon, not a sprint when buying more stuff… lol!!!

I hit up one of the antique stores in Hopkins a few times a year. Usually it's a book, but I did find a (approx 1972) set of Jarts in mint condition a couple years ago. There is one particular old-timey table lamp I am looking for, and yes, I know I can find it online, but where's the fun in that? 😉
When you tell somebody somethin', it depends on what part of the United States you're standin' in... as to just how dumb you are.
I also look from items with a story behind them or I relate to. I have a flashlight from Berkeley’s Pit in Butte, Mt. I remember as a kid seeing the pit in operation. Now it’s full of water.

I very seldom take night time cold medications (once or twice a year). Though like the last 2 or 3 times I have, it really messes with me. It knocks me out for most of the night but I have weird dreams and hallucinations type of episodes. I take day time cold medications often and never have a problem with them. Almost make me just want to take day time at night and deal with struggling to get to sleep.

Night time I load up on a few things to clear my sinuses and avoid cough.
Dextromethorphan syrup (Nyquil Cough) helps. Benedryl helps a lot. I actually use it nightly year round. Vick's Vaporub under the nose. And saline spray to the nose (also Nasacort if needing additional help).
I sleep with a CPAP so clear sinuses are a must or I won't sleep at all. But I avoid pseudoephedrine at all costs.
I received my Hawaiian THC Gummies, very strong after 1 dose i now only take 1/2 of one a day 
Aloha!
If you read the fine print it says “ may cause excitability in children”….thats me 😳But I avoid pseudoephedrine at all costs.
Racing heart, major anxiety, feels like electrical snaps in my body, horrible reaction.

Just a friendly reminder that phenylephrine doesn't actually work, so don't use it...
I made that mistake once. Never again. What I can't figure out is why companies are allowed to sell phenylephrine as a nasal decongestant if it doesn't work? It feels like a scam.Just a friendly reminder that phenylephrine doesn't actually work, so don't use it...

It has to do with regulatory processes related to approval and the removal of approval of medications.
It actually takes a while to essentially revoke approval, including something like a 180 day comment period on the FDA advisory panel recommendations (which was, in essence, "oral phenylephrine doesn't work")
I would guess this gets pulled from the market in the next year, but I don't actually have any formal background in pharmaceutical regulatory affairs 🤔 😆
If the Vikings ever go on a 5 year run like the Chiefs. Will our fan double to triple and people who you had no idea were Vikings will be the biggest Vikings fans around… lol!!!

What is the point in making Twitter bots (for lack of a better term)?
They usually have a few things in common:
- The avatar is always of an attractive lady
- These accounts typically follow thousands of others
- The usually don't have a single tweet
Are these like the Kenya e-mail bank scams of the past, in that they hope to lure some thirsty into sending a PM and eventually sucking money out of them?
I always assumed they’re primarily data mining. Out there lurking and learning.

I always thought they were being used for follow bots, ie following an up and coming "influencer" to boost their follow amount (for money of course). They then follow random people to try and avoid auto ban detection.
