That's what crosses my mind when they're there at all intersections in 95°-98° weather with no shade, surrounded by asphalt, concrete and hot vehicles. They're walking back and forth ALL day long. Any job has got to be easier than that.
I'm trying to be charitable, but don't really feel safe. Just scammed.
I'd rather give to an actual person that needed it they i know or a reputable local charity or my church.

Looks like I'm taking the train next month. We need to get two cars and a truck 3 hours away, but we only have two drivers.
First thought was drive two cars up a few days early, park one, and drive one car back. Six hours round trip for two for no good reason.
But I could drive up, get some business done and take a 3 hour train ride back. It's only $29 and the train station at this end is 30 minutes from home.
Trains good, planes bad!
@TJ of the Side-Eye When my Grandfather died when I was about 5 or so, I road a train from Seattle, WA to Davenport, IA, it was a 3-day ride and an experience I am fond of to this day.
I think it is sad that our railroads have been allowed to go to shit. Rather than electrify them like every other continent has done and depend upon them for the efficient and inexpensive transport of both goods and people, we let them rot. Horrible shame that is.
I would drive to the station in Sunnyvale, and ride up to Redwood City. The company had a shuttle bus from the train station during commute times, or it was only a mile or so to walk.
I lived near Lawrence Expressway and had a gig in Scotts Valley for half a year. Nice drive as long as there aren't any accidents.

The Web Design Journey: From Vision to Victory
When you hire a Singapore website designer, understanding the web design process can make all the difference. You don’t need to know code or design, but grasping the steps helps you work together smoothly, avoid surprises, and get a website that delivers.
Web design isn’t just about aesthetics or quick page setups. It’s a disciplined process that turns an idea into a functional site. Skipping or rushing steps can lead to a site that looks good but doesn’t perform.
Here’s a clear guide to the web design process, from start to finish.
Step 1: Set Your Goal
Every website begins with a purpose. Why are you building this site? What’s it meant to achieve?
Many jump in without a clear answer, thinking a website is just “required.” Without focus, the project can lose direction.
Are you aiming to capture leads? Drive online sales? Or create a professional presence so visitors don’t find a outdated social media page?
A professional Singapore website designer will start by asking about your goals, audience, and user expectations. This clarity shapes the entire project.
Step 2: Planning the Framework
Once your purpose is clear, it’s time to organize the site’s structure.
This involves deciding what pages are needed, how they’ll connect, and how users will navigate. A sitemap—a simple outline of the site’s pages—acts as a blueprint.
Next, wireframes are created to show the layout of each page. These are basic sketches of where elements like text, buttons, and images will go, without focusing on visuals yet.
This step might feel technical, but it’s crucial to avoid costly revisions later. A solid plan keeps the project on track.
Step 3: Shaping the Content
Content is often overlooked, but it’s the backbone of a great website.
A site’s design only works when paired with clear, engaging words. That means content needs to be tackled early, not as an afterthought.
You might write the content yourself, hire a copywriter, or see if the designer offers support. Many Singapore website designers don’t include full copywriting, so check this upfront.
Content isn’t just filler—it’s how you convey your value, connect with visitors, and drive action. Weak content can undermine even the best visuals.
Step 4: Crafting the Visuals
This is when the site starts to take shape visually, and things get exciting.
Using wireframes and content as a foundation, the designer adds colors, fonts, imagery, and branding to create the site’s aesthetic.
The design should reflect your brand—polished for a corporate site, or bold for a creative one. A skilled Singapore website designer ensures the visuals align with your goals and appeal to your audience.
You’ll review drafts, share feedback, and see tweaks. Be honest about your preferences, but trust the designer’s expertise for what works online.
Once approved, development begins.
Step 5: Building the Site
The development phase turns designs into a working website.
Depending on your needs, the site might be custom-coded or built on platforms like WordPress, Shopify, or Webflow. Your goals will guide the choice.
The developer ensures the site is responsive (works across devices), loads quickly, and includes features like forms, e-commerce tools, or social integrations.
Top Singapore website designers test thoroughly, checking for issues like slow load times or broken links that could erode user trust.
Step 6: Final Review and Launch
Before going live, you’ll test the site in detail. Check navigation, review content, try forms, and flag any final changes.
This is your chance to ensure everything’s perfect: Are images sharp? Do links work? Does the contact form function correctly?
Once you sign off, the designer handles the launch—setting up the domain, hosting, security, and backups.
A reliable Singapore website designer will offer post-launch support, like fixing bugs or training you on basic updates. Confirm what’s included to avoid surprises.
Choosing Your Designer
Singapore has many website designers, from freelancers to agencies. Quality and pricing can vary widely.
Don’t just judge by portfolios. Look at their process. Do they ask insightful questions? Communicate clearly? Offer guidance while respecting your vision?
Choose a designer who acts as a partner, turning your ideas into a site that performs online.
Final Thoughts
A great website comes from clear goals, careful planning, strong content, thoughtful design, and reliable development.
When hiring a Singapore website designer, pick someone who guides you through each step with expertise and transparency. Your website is your business’s digital foundation—build it with care.

Personally, I dont think there is one best Jelly/Jam/Preserve for a Peanut Butter & Jelly Sammich.
Variety is what makes the PB&J such a tireless classic.
I just had an Apricot Jam PB&J with Crunchy Peanut Butter. The mild flavor pushed the Peanut Butter forward in the sandwich, which was nice. As opposed to something like Strawberry, Marmalade or Raspberry which are very strong contrasting flavors...which are good in a PB&J in their own right, but different.
Then you have something like an Apple Butter or Pear Butter which brings a whole other flavor contrast to the humble PB&J.

I juice our sour cherries every 4th of july weekend. Can the juice and make cherry jelly as needed during the year. I do the same with concord grapes in the fall. We freeze our strawberries during june and make jam as needed. Then freeze our raspberries in august for jam as well. My fav is the cherry, but their all fantastic and like you say, its the variety that makes it never get old.
You should try making a pb&j sandwhich then cook it just like french toast. Omg!

We have all read in scientific books, and, indeed, in all romances, the story of the man who has forgotten his name. This man walks about the streets and can see and appreciate everything; only he cannot remember who he is. Well, every man is that man in the story. Every man has forgotten who he is. One may understand the cosmos, but never the ego; the self is more distant than any star. Thou shalt love the Lord thy God; but thou shalt not know thyself.
It is the only way I can express in words my clear and definite perception that one thing is quite distinct from another; that there is no logical connection between flying and laying eggs. It is the man who talks about "a law" that he has never seen who is the mystic. Nay, the ordinary scientific man is strictly a sentimentalist. He is a sentimentalist in this essential sense, that he is soaked and swept away by mere associations. He has so often seen birds fly and lay eggs that he feels as if there must be some dreamy, tender connection between the two ideas, whereas there is none. A forlorn lover might be unable to dissociate the moon from lost love; so the materialist is unable to dissociate the moon from the tide. In both cases there is no connection, except that one has seen them together. A sentimentalist might shed tears at the smell of apple-blossom, because, by a dark association of his own, it reminded him of his boyhood. So the materialist professor (though he conceals his tears) is yet a sentimentalist, because, by a dark association of his own, apple-blossoms remind him of apples. But the cool rationalist from fairyland does not see why, in the abstract, the apple tree should not grow crimson tulips; it sometimes does in his country.
This elementary wonder, however, is not a mere fancy derived from the fairy tales; on the contrary, all the fire of the fairy tales is derived from this. Just as we all like love tales because there is an instinct of sex, we all like astonishing tales because they touch the nerve of the ancient instinct of astonishment. This is proved by the fact that when we are very young children we do not need fairy tales: we only need tales. Mere life is interesting enough. A child of seven is excited by being told that Tommy opened a door and saw a dragon. But a child of three is excited by being told that Tommy opened a door. Boys like romantic tales; but babies like realistic tales—because they find them romantic. In fact, a baby is about the only person, I should think, to whom a modern realistic novel could be read without boring him. This proves that even nursery tales only echo an almost pre-natal leap of interest and amazement. These tales say that apples were golden only to refresh the forgotten moment when we found that they were green. They make rivers run with wine only to make us remember, for one wild moment, that they run with water. I have said that this is wholly reasonable and even agnostic. And, indeed, on this point I am all for the higher agnosticism; its better name is Ignorance. We have all read in scientific books, and, indeed, in all romances, the story of the man who has forgotten his name. This man walks about the streets and can see and appreciate everything; only he cannot remember who he is. Well, every man is that man in the story. Every man has forgotten who he is. One may understand the cosmos, but never the ego; the self is more distant than any star. Thou shalt love the Lord thy God; but thou shalt not know thyself. We are all under the same mental calamity; we have all forgotten our names. We have all forgotten what we really are. All that we call common sense and rationality and practicality and positivism only means that for certain dead levels of our life we forget that we have forgotten. All that we call spirit and art and ecstasy only means that for one awful instant we remember that we forget.

"The letter to Epstein bearing Trump’s name is bawdy. It contains several lines of typewritten text framed by the outline of a naked woman, which appears to be hand-drawn with a heavy marker. A pair of small arcs denotes the woman’s breasts, and the future president’s signature is a squiggly 'Donald' below her waist, mimicking pubic hair.
The letter concludes: 'Happy Birthday — and may every day be another wonderful secret.'"
@HiroProtagonist it could be as you say, or it could be real. As I said it'll be interesting to see what comes of his lawsuit. The discovery phase could prove interesting as well, if they actually go to trial. As to why this album appeared now, we would have to first know who gave it to the WSJ and when.
At the end of the day, even if it's 100% true, it's not much more than a curiosity from a time when the two were friends.
