Good morning all, just paid my Consumers Energy bill online and it appears the mild weather so far this winter has given homeowners in mid-Michigan a break on their heating bills. Just finished preparing a crock pot meal of corned beef and cabbage that will be done about 3 pm, I have a 6 pack of premium beer to wash it down with and am already anticipating the meal. Today I am making another trip to the local recycling center and take my old electronics to the Goodwill store. One of them is my '93 vintage Sony cabinet style 32" tv set. Back then it was one of the best tv sets you could buy but it cost $1200 and today you can buy a 32" Toshiba LCD with picture quality that is far superior for $250. Makes me wonder. :laughing:
