I’ve been reading post about haint as a color and wondered if it was more of a regional “color”. I have never ever heard the word used in relation in reference to a color. Haint in my neck of the woods is a ghost or evil being. Even regions of south have their own slang. I even checked with a couple friends who are not from my neck of the woods but born and raised in the south. They were clueless too. But we all marked it down to learn something new and off to read up on something everyone thinks we should know. Haint BlueGeez, I'm from the west. The furthest south I've been (not counting Mexico 😁), is Denver Colorado and I knew about painting ceilings blue, for protection, in the south. Clearly, some of you don't watch enough HGTV! You must be watching the ID channel... Fear thy Neighbor. NoNamePerson 😄 (Keep that in mind, Tennesseer 😉) Bwahahaha 🤣

Really?

That can't be the title for a portrait of a man.

When I worked in New Haven CT, there were several employees who had never been west of the Hudson River in NY.

Those look like AAs. Are you sure they shouldn't be AAAs?

Thanks toomuchreality! Just so you know, I have a love/hate relationship with technology too. I've been going back and forth between an old phone and my current phone and my desktop, tonight. It's annoying!

Those look like AAs. Are you sure they shouldn't be AAAs? Triple AAAs might power a remote, but these would likely be called something like Ts or something in like that. It is weird they look like really large versions of AA batteries.

No plants or other live greenery in the house. And nothing for them to tip over within max jumping height.
