      Trekker One replied to the thread Snoring. AARRRGGGGHHHHH!!!!.
      Two words: Private room. Consider a pension or hotel where available. I am a light sleeper myself and a good night's sleep is essential to me after my daily half marathon of walking. Being sleep deprived really starts to put a damper on things...

      The US recently sent 100 billion in military aid between Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan rather than spending it on there own infrastructure at home or it's own citizens. They do this quite often. Most US cities look old, tired and stuffed with...

      My sympathies for his wife and family.This hits home being a 64 year old male myself. While 65 is much too young, my greater fear is ever getting old enough to require being placed in a senior home. That would be truly hell for me. Going with my...
