How well are your (bagged) salads and lettuce selling these days?

With the cyclospora scare lately, it seems like a lot of people are not buying any sort of salads out of abundance of caution. As such our salad sales have dropped. Our iceberg is primarily from California. We sell Fresh Express, Taylor Farms, Earthbound, Organic Girl, and Gotham Greens. So far none of these have been recalled yet. How are you guys doing?

The Public Library Starter Pack

Some I didn't include here:

- Someone shaving or doing other personal care stuff in the bathroom

- That one book you want to check out isn't available

- You see the same people there almost every day of the week

- Sometimes the loudest voices you hear are the library staff

Some of the outlets in the basement are two prong. Others are three. What do you suspect the wiring is?

We’re clearing out my grandparents house and I’ll be moving in. The house is older, likely mid 20th century. I really don’t know.

The house has a mix of two prong outlets (living room, bathrooms, part of basement) and three prong outlets (kitchen, garage, upstairs rooms, utility room, part of basement). I have no clue if any were changed since the house was built.

I understand there’s a workaround for changing two prong to three prong outlets by using a GFCI. In the instance of the basement where three outlets are two prong and two are three prong, would you think the (higher rated? Don’t know the correct terminology) wiring would be in place to make a change without using GFCI?

As for the living room (two prong), I know the wiring doesn’t/won’t support the ground normally.

It just seems weird that there’s a mixture of the different outlets in the house. What would be your recommendations for a safe change of outlets?

Of course this happens right before vacation or a big holiday starter pack

What I've seen over the years on midlyinfuriating or wellthatsucks and likely other subreddits too.

How would you go about affixing this garland to walls and ceilings?

Obviously it won’t be in clumps like this. Rather, spread out like actual vines. My initial thought was using some sort of tape, but it may look tacky. Any suggestions? These are lighter weight all around so I can’t imagine I’d need anything heavy duty. Also, the walls will be painted a lighter green color.

Is it just me or are storms these days more destructive than ever?

Napervillan here. Growing up there were definitely big storms, but I don’t recall too much tree damage, though. Meanwhile, in the past couple of years when there’s a big storm, it’s BIG and there’s tons of downed trees and branches. Does anybody else feel the same way?

Pictures are from Central Park downtown Naperville.
