Cancer Posted January 10, 2022 Report Share Posted January 10, 2022 You can buy battery-powered electrically heated items of clothing. One retired gentleman was given an electric vest for Christmas. Not entirely convinced but willing to give it a try, he used it most days after the holiday. Come mid-January and he was visited by his daughter, who'd given him the vest. She asked how it was working for him. "Well, it is warm," he said. "It just just doesn't feel quite right, though, truth be told." "What's the problem?" she asked. "Well, to really feel right, I'd want it to make me feel the same as when I have half a bottle of bourbon for breakfast." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is being written from beneath the electric blanket I got for Christmas. 🥶 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I regained all the weight I had lost prior to the lockdown. My fault. I have a treadmill and an exercise bike among other things, but I chose to become a couch potato.

It’s important to have both a treadmill and an exercise bike....That gives you a place to hang both clean AND dirty clothes. btw....I AM, I AM, THE TUBER KING!!!!

Ockham's Spoon Posted January 15, 2022 Report Share Posted January 15, 2022 Be careful when buying things online. I learned the hard way that if you buy a wristwatch that claims that you can swim with it, that only applies if you could already swim without it. Logan D.
