#1 ..their online site for Sales. Buying last season's stuff for next year can indeed save money. Caught items that were cheaper than Wallysmart, but far better quality.

#2 I'm conflicted here: one the one hand LLB supports ( or at least one of the owners do) DJT, but a the same time LLB sponsors through apparel 'Product Placement,' The Weather Channel, a big proponent of Climate Change. (All the weatherguessers sport the blue LLB jacket) If DJT is opposed to CC, then where does that leave LLB? Just another capitalist whore?

Should the Russian scientists (and increasing numbers of others) be right about the coming little ice age resulting from the sun hitting the cool side of its multi-century cycle, L.L. Bean will benefit equally from the Weather Channel placement. I don't think it implies support for hypothesis of human-driven global warming as such. What they benefit from is people thinking about and dressing for the weather, regardless what it might happen to be.

#4 My U-verse is busted - the Russian-sounding tech who has 'tried' to help for two days has given up. Must be on Trump/Putin's orders...

#6 My solid-ox unit won't work on fiber... Actually, seems like the new modem they installed is no longer compatible with my old receiver, so a tech is (supposedly) coming tomorrow, probably to replace my receiver and take away all my DVR's stuff.

#7 And they kept charging me the previous rate for two extra months. Spousal unit is much more patient than I - I was telling her to have the tech just pick up their equipment tomorrow and cancel my account.

#8 And even the supervisor she talked to spoke with an Eastern European accent.

#9 You can deal with Eastern Europeans, or Indians. I will take the former any time.
