An Egyptian scarab.

You say it's priced at 85K, repairs 15K. Would you buy it if it was in perfect condition for 100K? If so, buy it. If not, walk.

I don't know what your local market is like, but in most places a seller won't entertain that much price reduction.

I won't recommend anything in particular, but before buying an auto inflation vest confirm the price and availability of reload kits. The pill expires after a couple of years.

When I take my dog outside and he shuffles around looking for the perfect spot to crap, I tell him to "get with the program." He seems to understand that I'm becoming impatient.

It's been a long time since I looked at bar codes, but this link is to an old printer manual that has some useful information in its appendix: https://www.cognitivetpg.com//assets/downloads/105-008-02_Programming_Manual-HTML_revC2.pdf

Storm windows are a thing in four season climates, basically just another pane of glass over the existing window in winter. I have known low income people to just staple clear plastic over the frame for the same effect. You might give it a try. Ugly, but better than boarding them up.

I never resist anything on a restaurant menu. If I wanted to restraint myself I'd just stay home.

It's like a restaurant that advertises home cooked food. I go out to escape that.

Something like that happened to me how once. I was at an art gallery and asked if photography was ok. The guard said sure, and flash was ok as well, so I flashed him and he threw me out.

So, did the Englishman leave in a huff because he couldn't get a cab?

Been there. I liked the job and ignored the religion, consistently not remarking on the "god is guiding us" stuff. I eventually outlasted the fundies.

In another situation I had enough difficulty with the in-my-face religion, spoke up about it, and was the first one laid off when money got tight.

I guess the lesson is, pick your battles.
