Hints From Heloise

Avoid high repair costs for vehicles Dear Heloise: More drivers notice cars that only have one working headlight. Years ago, fixing a headlight meant buying a bulb, unscrewing it, and replacing it in minutes. Today, many vehicles require the removal of panels or bumper parts to access the bulb. Several friends recently complained about high repair costs. A mechanic explained that new assemblies are more complex, and labor can take 1-2 hours. So, if a headlight burns out, check the owner’s manual first. Some cars allow for simple bulb changes, which saves money. If not, always request ...

Hershey says it will shift back to classic recipe for all Reese’s products after criticism

(AP) — Hershey said Wednesday it will use classic recipes for all Reese’s products starting next year, a change that comes after the grandson of Reese’s founder criticized the company for shifting to cheaper ingredients. Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups have always been made with real milk chocolate or dark chocolate and peanut butter. But a small portion of Hershey’s and Reese’s products, like mini Easter eggs, are now made with a coating that contains less chocolate. Hershey said that in 2027, it will shift those products to “their classic milk chocolate and dark chocolate ...

As a longtime denture wearer, I’ve told him that it takes time and that he needs to ask the dentist to adjust the partials if ...

Politically addled brains

“Hezbollah hit 19 IDF tanks today. That’s $95M lost in 1 day. The IDF is a paper tiger,” declared Ethan Levins on Twitter with a picture of a burned-out tank. He describes himself as an “independent journalist,” “American Christian,” and “truth seeker.” The picture he posted was from 2006. His claim is fiction. Mario Nawfal tweeted footage with the text of his tweet reading, “Iran releases footage claiming to down a U.S. F-18 fighter jet. If true, this only happened twice before: 1991 Gulf War and 1995 Bosnia War.” Nawfal is a prolific tweeter with over 3.2 ...

PBS smears GOP as ‘white with fear’

One of the most preposterous claims from liberals is that somehow, conservatives uniquely try to win elections by using “fear,” “hate” and “division,” especially on race and religion. Democrats never use any divisive, negative tactics when trying to motivate voters. It’s like they’ve never heard Chuck Schumer saying a Republican voter-ID bill is “Jim Crow 2.0.” On March 24, PBS stations debuted a long negative campaign commercial disguised as a documentary titled “White With Fear,” on how “America’s conservative political machine uses racial fault lines to ...
