We saw the new movie release ….. A Complete Unknown. This is a movie about Bob Dylan from his starts in 1961 to 1965. This was FANTASTIC. There are not enough superlatives to describe how well this movie was done, and how much I enjoyed it. Yes, I am a big fan of his music. This movie is a must own when it is available. There should be an academy award or two from this movie. Anyone else here see it today?

Like so many here I'd love to see Dan Bongino get that spot.

I know...I know...I NEEEEED to update my operating system...but assume I cannot for the sake of this posting. Do you guys happen to know the latest most up to date Windows 7 version of the web browser Brave? We are currently using Version 1.47.186. Thank you!!!

Hi, Do window air conditioners draw more current when they get old? I had one in the bathroom. Toward the end of the summer, it was tripping the GFCI quite a bit. It had not done that in past summers. I got tired of resetting the GFCI. The air conditioner is heavy; I got around to taking it down just now. I've had a space heater in the bathroom plugged into the GFCI for a few weeks. It has not been tripping -- I'm thinking the space heater draws less current than the air conditioner even in the best of...

So I get a call from my son at about 7:30 am. He’s freaking out wondering of something happened here since (according to him) I made 2 calls at approximately 1:28 am. He assumed something must have been wrong for me to be calling so late, but we chalked it up to an infamous ‘butt dial’. But wait: I was pretty sure I was in bed before then, and made that pretty clear. I then after checking my phone history I said, “can you check the number that actually called you, since I have no record of it on my...

Folks, advice needed: I live in South Philadelphia, the heart of the inner city. Some non-negotiable things: I’m not moving, I won’t surrender the ownership of my home, no surrender. So, in anticipation of the Election, I’ve stocked up on batteries, lanterns, charcoal, matches, canned goods, fire extinguishers, cash, gold, candles, ammo, non-firing weapons, first aid supplies (wife is a Nurse) and gasoline. Anyone better versed in this than I am have suggestions which I may have overlooked?

Had to reload my PC and when I went to cywoody's page to reload the posting enhancer the add-on link is dead. He disappeared from FR years ago but the page remained. Now, his page is there but the link to the add-on is dead. I loved that add-on and used it for years. I am not smart enough to create it so I'm hoping one of our coders here would take on the job. I know a lot of Freepers use it, too.

Do you like it? Tolerate it? Of the three types of machines, which do you prefer? Are they noisy or is it like "white noise?" Caveats? Suggestions? Thanks.

My husband and I are thinking of relocating to Greenville, SC or west of that area. Does anyone have any recommendations of areas and neighborhoods we should be looking? We would like to be in a nice, established area that is close to conveniences. Pretty much a good area to walk our dogs and not too far out in the country - it would be nice to be 10-15 minutes from restaurants, grocery stores and other shopping. We live on the coast of NC and would like to move inland away from the Hurricane Alley. Many thanks for any input!

FR needs a block feature. I'm tired of coming to FR to get the news only to find zeepers and ho supporters dominating the bandwidth.

I believe my wife suffers from a phobia of and an obsession with mold.

Need help, I like using duck duck go, was good for more than a half a year. Then got small and can't change it back. As it is now it unreasonable.

I don't know how to add a picture to a post. Any help is appreciated. TIA
