  1. Thanks, I do a lot of construction work, but tend to only do work on larger construction out of state. For smaller operations you are usually better off finding someone a little more local. Ask around and see who others are using that they like. If you have some specific questions, throw them up and we may be able to give you some answers.
  2. We spent June and July at the beach and ended up doing a lot more sitting this year than riding when we were out on it. That plus the kids schedule when school started back have killed our lake time. I really need to put a lift and cover on the dock at the lake to keep from having to haul it back and forth. It would make it easier to run up for a little while during the week. I’m also on a 1000 acre lake, so it’s not like we’re going up to cruise around either.
  3. Dealer I work with says they are expecting lot availability to be nonexistent through the next model year outside of buying whatever happens to come in or ordering one. I’m going to see what comes out on the 2023 redesign while I wait and then decide something for sure when it gets closer. He said he didn’t have a problem putting this one on the lot if I want a ‘23 instead as it would be gone immediately.
  4. Moved on as well, wish I would have pulled the trigger a day earlier.
  5. Waiting on an update on my Bronco order, but Ford dealer seems to think it will be sometime around year end. Went with a 2 door Black Diamond so it would have no carpet where I could rinse sand and dirt out of it. Went ahead and put in a 2022 F250 order also while I was talking to him. It’s time to upgrade.
  6. That $9.49 back in February sure is looking nice right about now. It’s going to back slide until news now it looks like. The momentum was already priced in over the last few days apparently.
  7. I wouldn’t get greedy, the uplist news was what everyone was waiting for. There is no other news or fundamentals to push the stock much higher than just uplisting will and some of that is priced in already over the last few days. There is nothing out there that makes this a $10 stock, hell IBRX with several big money drugs in play is just bouncing around under $10.
  8. Having been to a number of SEC stadiums, this is a stupid take. I’ve never had a bad experience at any of them and they are typically great game day experiences.
  9. What’s this shaving thing? Team beard, I haven’t seen a razor since before my kids were born. No shaving the edges, none of that stuff, just run a beard trimmer through it to keep it the length I want it and done.
  10. How in the world does he just lazily go out of bounds and not try and fight through, lateral, whatever at that point once his stupid ass crossed the line of scrimmage instead of throwing it like he should have?
  11. I’ve never had anyone cut across, but I have had some close calls especially the last two years. We have had some boats get way too close to downed riders and the tubes. I’ve had to come around quickly to a downed rider a couple times because a boat was heading right for one of the kids. We have ended up changing our habits and timing on the water, but it’s just not as much fun lately. Boat is winterized and put up, we’ll try again next year. Maybe I’ll end up with more than 16 hours next year.
  12. A couple of the other recent up lists have quickly doubled on the news and then retreated just as quickly, so it all depends on the numbers they put out.
  13. Standing in solidarity by still being on the payroll while not having to do anything for his paycheck? Between his payroll and the luxury tax around it, the Nets are getting bent over for someone standing with the collection of idiots in this country. It shouldn’t be allowed and they shouldn’t have to pay him 1 dollar if he makes a decision that costs him the ability to play. Really take a stand instead of some phony B.S.
  14. Stupid take is stupid. Kyrie didn’t retire, he put the team and his teammates in a shit position. I would have way more respect for him if he actually put his beliefs first and walked away from the game like someone with real convictions. Instead, the Nets still probably have to pay him for about half the games while he sits or let him play and have a fucking circus around him playing every other night and the disruption that causes within the team with him in and out of the lineup. This is a bitch move by the ultimate bitch of the NBA. Just nut up and retire.
  15. There are a couple of brothers up north that run golf pools, football pools, baseball pools, etc. They are typically $100 buy ins and have several thousand participants. There is another guy that runs a ton of pools and squares with $100-$500+ buy ins depending on the pool with a lot of people in them. I’ve won off both and never had any issues with payouts.
  16. This has been an interesting season so far. There have been a bunch of close calls, but almost no big pick upsets. I’m in a couple of pools with $500k+ payouts and a lot of the people in the pools are still alive. Usually by now there have been massive cuts with surprise losses.
  17. Once incorporated, you just need to file a 1023 to get recognized as a 501c3 by the IRS. They have a detailed checklist of information you have to include, but most of it can be done by you unless you can find an attorney/CPA to handle it. You will need a board, bylaws, the documents you received when you originally formed, etc. The IRS has moved the process online and it can be handled through their website. Once you get the 501c status recognized by the IRS, you typically have to file with the state also. I do work for several club sports groups, it’s not that difficult or expensive to keep up with.
  18. This with a caveat, you don’t necessarily have to use it a lot for it to still be worth it just maybe not financially. We use ours probably 12 weeks +/- every year and have been as little as 6-8. For the two months that we are there in the summer, owning it is a much better deal. All of our crap is already there, I bought the mattresses so I know what I’m sleeping on for two months, all the kitchen stuff is ours, etc. If I was doing it a week at a time off an on, I would go back to renting. For an extended stay, owning is the way to go if you can swing it.
  19. Hence the reason I am at the beach with the dog. Did my service, not going back any more. Plus, the dog rates above the kids to my wife, so it wasn’t even a hard sell to keep him while they went.
  20. 1, definitely a 1 unless the scale goes negative and then I would like to revise my answer.
  21. Factor in the maintenance side of things as teak is a labor of love to keep it looking nice at least in the boat applications I’ve always used it in. Have you looked at the higher end composite decking material? It may be something to at least check out as what we used has a really nice look and has held up well. It still seems odd to not be doing either stone or finished concrete. I can’t say I’ve even seen a wood decking on an in ground pool that I recall.
  22. Teak looks great when taken care of which is a process, not so much when it ages. However, I can’t see any way that true teak would in any way be cheaper than a stone alternative. I’ve never seen it used in that large a layout or around a pool either.
  23. Looked at 4 doors and 2 doors several times, I prefer the look of the 2 door. The 2 door is definitely the jumbo sized shape of the classic early 70’s Broncos, but there is nothing wrong with the 4 door with the proper accessories and colors.
  24. I had just driven the that road and dropped off my girlfriend (wife now) 15 minutes before that happened. Anyone in the passenger seat wouldn’t have made it. I had an interior picture at one point that showed the dash and back of the motor pushed into the passenger seat which was pushed into the back seat. Not sure how my no seat belt wearing self walked other than I hit the tree slightly off centered so the car bent into a J rather than just stopping and the steering column broke so I ended up up in between it and the door. That plus a lot of smaller brush helping scrub speed before I hit something solid and a shit ton of it just not being my time I guess. I knew people that didn’t make it from much less serious looking wrecks. I don’t remember anything from that night prior to the wreck, but I clearly remember the first cop asking where the body was when he looked at it. It was on a 7-8 mile back road I ran multiple times a day and each time I drove it late at night I tried to better my time from end to end. My vehicles took a serious downturn after that one. Went for a K-5, to the Camaro, to a string of cheap Escorts and Tauruses.
  25. Still my favorite vehicle on the road. I’ve thought hard about pulling the trigger on another one, but I just haven’t been able to do it.
