No More Cloudy Glasses!
August 25, 2020 I hesitated to write this post. I first wanted to make sure that my tip was safe for dishwashers. I have used this method for several years now, and so far, all good! The only thing to remember is that this method is to be used only on a need basis. After…

What to Think?
July 28, 2020 Something very strange happened… I have been posting my thoughts for a couple of years on my GrandMa Talks website. During that time, my poor site was inundated by Google Ads. But then, what else to do? I can not really make people pay for my opinions or tips. I realize I…

Lock Them Up?
December 4, 2019 Are we done yet with blowing our money like crazy trying to impeach a duly elected President? Am I the only one profoundly disturbed when listening to the impeachment hearings I hear questions asked by democrats ending with closed opinions that sound like “but we know he is guilty as sin anyway”?…

The Mueller probe did not bring the expected results. If anything, it…

Made in USA?
We want vibrant cities with shops and boutiques, lively sidewalks, cafes and restaurants. We want easy access to grocery stores. We lament that the shops are closing and stay empty for months, even years. Meanwhile, we shop on Amazon.com to save a few dollars. We are outraged by sweat shops in developing countries. We are…

Simple, Cheap, and Spotless! Clean It All Solution.
I will admit, I don’t like cleaning. Any type of cleaning… I find it a big loss of time. But I love my house clean. It smells, looks, and feels good. Having allergies, it is not like I have a choice. Either I clean, or spend a small fortune on tissues and antihistamines. I used…

Hijab, Yarmulke, Rift
April 2, 2019 Women wearing the hijab make me uncomfortable. Men wearing the yarmulke disturb me. The hijab shouts “this woman is a Muslim!” The yarmulke proclaims “this man is Jewish!” What is the point? We are all free to believe in any God we like. We are all free to practice our religions. We…
