Editorial: New law no bargain
Rocky seas are ahead for businesses in Massachusetts.
Yesterday, Gov. Charlie Baker signed the “grand bargain” bill into law. It increases the minimum wage to $15 an hour by 2023, requires paid leave for workers starting in 2021 and establishes an annual sales tax holiday each August.
Last year, the state Legislature voted themselves a handsome pay raise. This week the mayor of Boston as well as the City Council did the same. Taxpayers are made to hand over their hard-earned dollars to improve the standard of living for their elected representatives again and again.
When do they get some relief? One weekend in the summer?

In the raid, 38 bombers were lost and 481 were damaged, according to an April 2007 Air Force Magazine article. The USAAF estimated that as many as 500 Luftwaffe fighters attacked and almost 400 men did not return. Many were missing in action after bailing out of their aircraft.
The Nov. 2nd mission was the deadliest, the article explained, but not the last of the missions to Leuna. Crews risked a half-dozen more missions over an array of at least 1,700 flak guns.

Then I was able to park in the shade at the ShopRite, That made the car much more comfortable when I came back to it.

Hi
I'm back from walking and no cents. The Temperature out the door was 75 degrees and It was uncomfortable walking due to high humidity. The Rain forecast for overnight happened and the rain had ended before I left the house. As I was approaching the store to pick up my coffee I saw a Deer heading across the street I was on and heading down the street behind the store. I could see that we already hit 100% for rain when I left the house, It is drying outside currently. OTOH if the weather today is like Monday's then we will be having bands of rain going through all afternoon.
When I am walking I sometimes see Instant Lottery Tickets so I pick them up, Scratch off bar code and check them occasionally, In last weeks batch I found a Instant winner that someone had discarded worth $5 so You could say I found $5

Hi
I'm back from walking and no cents. The Temperature out the door was 77 degrees and It was uncomfortable walking due to high humidity as I headed out the door. Then it started drizzling after a block of walking. 1 block further on the rain became heavier and was still falling heavily as I returned home.
Once I check my lottery tickets I will know how many millions I won in Tuesdays drawing.

Hi
I'm back from walking and no cents. The Temperature out the door was 74 degrees and It was uncomfortable walking due to high humidity as I headed out the door. I could see that it rained overnight, however the streets and sidewalks were starting to dry up. I was just looking out the window and the sky looks like more rain could be on the way
I did Laundry Tuesday and as soon as I get some motivation back I need to take the clean sheets and put them on the bed so I can wash the old ones. First thing is the printer table as I also use it as my desk to write checks and I have two of them to write so I can mail them tomorrow
Yesterday I was rolling the Old Radio Shack Printer Table over in front of the TV I use a larger 42 inch Monitor when the Bar that the wheels are mounted to on one side came off. So now I need to take everything off of it so I can turn it upside down and reattach the wheels. It is sort of old since I bought it back when the home Printers were either Dot Matrix or For really nice looking is slow printing Daisy Wheel Printers. I did make something to block the opening where the pin feed paper came up so that the keyboard, Mouse etc. did not fall through. Call me cheap but I want to fix it rather than replace it if I can even find something that size with wheels.
