RE: Vintage Gas Prices
11 cents a gallon on the Navy base in the mid fifties. Slightly higher off base.
Guy
Wow! 11 cents! I've never seen such a price. And unfortunately, I'm unlikely to ever see it.

RE: Best security cameras for travel trailer?
What about Google Nest. Is it good?
I didn't try it by myself, but when I was looking for a camera, I read much about Nest. Its main competitor is Arlo, I guess. And I ended up addressing arlo customer service via this source https://arlo.pissedconsumer.com/customer-service.html and choosing the Arlo Ultra camera because of the 4K video resolution, color night mode, and flexible power options. It also has an integrated spotlight and the whole thing is powered with a rechargeable battery pack. I didn't regret that decision.

RE: Prostate problems
My father has a prostate problem. He didn't go through surgery. His doctor prescribed Doxazosin (Cardura). This is an Alpha blocker. From what I read on the Canadian Pharmacy Online site, it relaxes the muscles of the prostate and the neck of the urinary bladder. I do hope it will help him, but the more I read, the more posts I find written by people who had to undergo surgery after the course of drugs.

RE: Cold Coffee
I used to drink lots of coffee, but faced a problem with high pressure. Now I can have only one cup per day in the morning and only after breakfast.

RE: Buy RV in USA & drive it down? Or after I arrive in Mexico?
Where do you guys look for RVs? Is FB a decent place for searching one?
I can also recommend checking Motor Home Specialist (MHSRV). I read the reviews about it here https://motor-home-specialist.pissedconsumer.com/review.html. It is supposed to be the biggest motorhome dealer in the world. At least, it no doubt can help with buying an RV in Mexico.

RE: Health rant
It is always inspiring to read posts written by people who do care about their health. I think we would have a healthier nation if we ate properly and teach our children to do it from birth. Of course, being physically active is important and great, but nutrition plays the biggest role. I found a good list of products and helpful recommendations here https://betterme.world/articles/a-macro-food-list/ and decided to follow them. I should say, it helped me figure out what products to eat and when.

RE: Anybody use Aliexpress??
Aliexpress is one of the most popular e-commerce websites that allow buying and selling products. It is easy to find products at lower prices there, moreover, the choice is really wide. I make purchases there now and then. What I also like about this platform is it often offers free shipping.

RE: COVID PERSONAL EXPERIENCES
We were vaccinated Late November and then 2nd in December of 2021. Got COVID in February. Just like the flu, feverish and aches and chills for a few days then like a cold that settled in my chest. Wife was not quite as bad. Then got the booster in March. We've been careful wearing masks and sanitizing all along. Not sure yet if I will take the next booster. Have diabetes, high blood pressure, a-fib, gerd all managed by meds.
My wife also has type 2 diabetes. Of course, she is on meds (after talking to a doctor, she decided to buy trulicity online and give it a try), but still, I worry about getting a shot. Two of our friends got sick after the second booster (fever, headache, weakness, etc.). We still haven't decided whether to do it or not.

RE: Thinking about investing in Crypto currency?
The crypto market is not dead. I'm interested in this topic, so I follow the news in this sphere. Moreover, I read that big data analytics is widely used among crypto traders now. It helps them make data-driven decisions and better identify the future of the market. Thus, they can figure out what causes the changes in the prices of these coins. I find it to be very interesting.

RE: Direct TV Question
I watch sports mostly on Dazn (here is a good review https://dazn.pissedconsumer.com/review.html if someone is interested). This is a great sports streaming service. I have a subscription, but it has to be noted that you can watch all of the free videos on the homepage from start to finish even if you don't pay for the service. But thanks for the recommendations!

RE: Mother/son wedding dance songs
My nephew is getting married soon and my sister drives me crazy because of all this wedding preparation. Fortunately, she finally chose that very princessly dress and a suit for her son. But now she wants me to help her with the mother/son wedding song. So, thanks for the recommendations. I hope Ed Sheeran will be a perfect choice.

RE: Early Television
I don't remember when we got our first tv, but it was black and white. I remember how my Mom called me to watch a tv show for kids or a cartoon when she caught it. Though I understand my children will never even understand what it is like to live without tv and the Internet, I like my childhood memories. All these apps and Kodi give much more possibilities today, and there is no need to tell about the variety of devices we all use. Times have changed significantly.

RE: Animal care in times of Coronavirus
In times of ticks it is not less easy...
It's true. Every summer I worry about fleas and ticks though I buy Advantage Multi on the Pet express site for my cat.
As for times of Coronavirus, we were keeping the cat out of the wife's isolation area as we didn't need a sick cat with anyone well enough to take her to the vet.

RE: Great Movie
Just watch a movie called The Gentleman. Great one!
Absolutely agree. I liked it a lot. Good suspense and action, excellent acting from the entire cast (it has to be noted that Matthew McConaughey is of my fav actors).To me, The Gentlemen is one of the better movies if not the best movie I watched this year. I'm glad that I've found a list of firestick channels https://www.firestickhow.com/firestick-channels.html and caught the movie.

RE: Obesity in America
The obesity percentage in the USA is twice as many as three decades ago. Approximately 15% of children and teens are overweight. It is essential to monitor nutrition. I've recently read about black lentils https://betterme.world/articles/black-lentils-nutrition/ I'm going to try it. Also, it has to be noted that it is important to make your children eat healthily.

RE: Credit Cards For Fuel Discounts
I've recently opened a mission lane credit card. Having looked through its benefits on this source, I decided that this would be a good choice. Actually, I'm pleased with it, but in order to get cash back or any other rewards, I opened the Discover it card. It turned out to be a good match. It earns 2 percent back on gas station and restaurant purchases on up to $1k in combined spending per quarter, then 1 percent back on all other purchases. But it is good to learn from the experience of others. Thanks, guys.

RE: The [Star] Trek Thread
Who watches Star Trek: Strange New Worlds? I've recently finally started watching it via the Redbox TV app https://www.firestickhow.com/redbox-tv.html on my firestick. Of course, it differs from the old series, but it is not bad.

RE: Thinking about investing in Crypto currency?
To be honest, I was suspicious about cryptocurrency when people around started investing money in it. Now I feel that this is the case when I had to think like others.

RE: Finally Found a Cold Cereal I Like
I haven’t had a spoon full of sugar in almost 40 years. Don’t even have a bag of it in the house. So if there is sugar in my Life cereal I’ll jut deal with it.
I know what you are talking about. I have to control my weight all the time. I do workouts regularly and monitor my nutrition, but stress makes me lose weight more than I want. By the way, I found an article on the topic https://betterme.world/articles/can-stress-cause-weight-loss-even-when-eating/ I'm going to follow it as a guide in the hope it will help me. As I want to gain weight (not to lose), eating sugar doesn't seem to be the worst decision, but still, it is not good for my health.

RE: Traveling via B&B/hotel vs RV
As you compare costs between RV travel and hotel arrangements, keep in mind that costs vary widely. Generally, the larger your family, the better your opportunity to save money with an RV. Savings also grow with the length of your trip. We haven't decided yet where and how to go in the fall, so I've already taken additional projects at work in the hope to earn extra money (fortunately, the guys from https://writinguniverse.com/essay-types/synthesis-essays/ agreed to help me). Also, it has to be noted that your travel destination plays a great role as large cities are not RV-friendly. As for me, I like both B&B and RV traveling. These are just different kinds of trips. I guess it depends mostly on the place I'm going to visit and on the people I'm going with.
