Tell us about yourself:
Joined AARP in 2020, when I turned 50. My father was a big fan of the organization, so I guess I've joined it based on his recommendations. (He's gone now.)
I am neither avocado nor dog. Nor do I have a dog. (But I love animals.) I had to come up with a user name when I joined, and I looked up and saw a silly quote I had pinned to my bulletin board that includes that unlikely combination of words.
Pretty irreverent about a lot of stuff, but I never mean to offend. I think of myself as a decent guy.
Area of knowledge and what I know well:
I am a veritable cesspool of useless knowledge, to quote some "Jeopardy!" contestant I remember from the 1980s.
Bio
Because my Dad was a big fan of AARP I joined the organization when I turned 50. I believe I am a cesspool of useless knowledge who simultaneously operates as a professional social distancer.

I watched Encanto tonight. It's been on Disney+ for a while, but it just didn't interest me, but tonight I finally decided, "Why not? What else do you have to do, you bum? What—you're going to start laundry at this hour? I don't think so. Aaah, watch...
Yep — YouTube ain't just for funny cat videos or 1960s Bert Kaempfert songs! I go there all the time for DIY / repair help. Type in what you're looking for and nine times out of ten, someone has posted a video about it — of varying helpfulness. The ...
Happened upon this post while searching for something else I wrote months ago. My dad taught my sister and I both to fish and gave us both fishing poles and tackle boxes for our birthday one year. I can speak for myself and probably safely speak for...
