  1. I used to date a girl from Fort Dodge which is kind of N/NE central Iowa, so this hits close to home.
  2. Understood, I just always thought the easy monetary fix for deflation is print more money. Gooses the economy and gets rid of deflation, seems like a much easier problem to solve than inflation from a fed standpoint
  3. Is it though? Isn't the simple solution to deflation the old dumping money from a helicopter?
  4. Did I spy a mullet on that Ukrainian?
  5. Laugh. There are high schools in Texas with more D1 prospects than the entire state of Minnesota. I live here and have watched a shitload of HS ball, and it's abysmal.
  6. Correction- it's every single school in the UC system (other than Santa Cruz), then UT-Austin. Source-my daughter goes to UCSB and talks endless shit about these rankings, without even thinking of the fact my UT degree is paying for her world class education. But I'm not bitter. Not at all.
  7. Also depends on how much you have in traditional ira. If you've got 2mm in there, it makes sense to start converting some now because required minimum distributions are going to destroy you tax wise. If you've only got 100k, you can finesse that out in small increments once you retire. Basically, you want some amount around 500k-1mm in traditional after you retire and you can manage your tax levels by withdrawing the right amount every year in retirement.
  8. Back in 1992 I was stranded in Dover with about 10 pounds to make it all the way to Glasgow. I met a couple of Manchester cab drivers on the ferry who were returning from a drinking and whoring holiday in Amsterdam who offered to drive me to Manchester. During the entire drive these 2 hungover cab drivers had an in depth discussion with me about the US congressional system and the executive branch with specific emphasis on the Kennedy administration. I was just hoping they didn't ask me to name any PM other than Churchill. Csb/tldr- we Americans are kind of dumb.
  9. A potential coach is going to be angry that you performed under the agreed to terms of the contract with the previous guy? Makes no sense to me.
  10. Ummm, you sure about that?
  11. I like to think that if Switzer died on a game day at DKR, we'd get a "Barry's in a box" chant going. That kind of hate is a special one that shouldn't be taken for granted.
  12. TV executives if this were to happen...
  13. Frightened inmate #3?
  14. I was intrigued by your NCSU discussion until I got to the part about Tim Beck.
  15. I see the problem here- you are supposed to take her by surprise and make her realize. You're flipping roles, like a nowthis sock.
  16. That's my thought. That's a broken down man there and the only other thing I can think of is a sick kid but that'd be something they'd probably disclose. My money is on Giselle stepping out.
  17. God dammit. I guess my recall of Texas football events is better than mediocre 90s country music.
  18. So many great memories- Steelers roll left, major to McGarity (with Ricky split out wide in short yardage for some Greg Davis reason but I digress), Sean Rodgers bitch slapping their o-line, vasher pick, bailey kick, Charles running for roughly 780 yards in the fourth quarter, and GG owning them. Bevo taking a dump is unfortunately not one of them, but I believe a waitress did get banged to the sweet background melodies of the Bellamy brothers that night, according to legend.
  19. Forgive the threadjack but is that ctj starting QB bet still on? Was it just money, or was there some additional humiliation added?
  20. Narrator - he won't.
  21. At the time he made the decision he had no idea he would be a celebrity in prison. He was as surprised as anyone at the reception he got on the bus, and even said going to Montrose would be a hellhole. Old Jimmy McGill got a little luck of the Irish on that one.
  22. I know you're joking but could you imagine the shit storm that would ensue on this board and the internet in general? I could almost see Gilligan doing that just to fuck with people.
  23. Why are people arguing w cloakroomers?They live for this shit. Put them on ignore or at least quit quoting them so I don't have to read their gaslighting bullshit.
  24. I was doing due diligence on a company a client was going to buy. One lawsuit they were defending involved a transport truck for a load of pipe (the steel kind,not the steelshank kind). A single pipe was not chained correctly and going up a mountain it slid off and impaled a driver through the chest. I make sure not to tailgate those trucks now.
