  1. We did about 3 hours of prep yesterday, and were open for business for about 5 hours today. Made enough to make it worthwhile, and literally everything we had out there was taken, which was the whole point. Not a single item had to be brought back inside, taken to goodwill, or thrown away. It's amazing that crap that has been just sitting around my house or in my garage has a new life. Everyone had cash. it was glorious.
  2. Forgot to add that, with the exception of the exercise bike, all remaining items are free to anyone who wants to come get them.
  3. Sorry, you missed it by about an hour. It went with the Lynskey. Items still available: 2-bike storage rack Yakima hitch rack (found the other adapter, so will fit 1 1/4" or 2" hitch) Schwinn 270 Recumbent Exercise Bike Some of the jerseys Some of the tools
  4. The Surly Long Haul Trucker has found a new home. Everything else is still available.
  5. Thanks. The way I'm looking at it, if I'm able to ride again at some point, having to get a new bike will be worth it. I'm just hoping to get them to people who will ride them. They've been sitting idle for too long.
  6. I'm a large dude, and cycling clothing runs small.
  7. Thanks. Having to give it up has been really tough.
  8. Sorry to those who have already seen this, but in an effort to get the most eyes, I'm cross posting here as well.
  9. Cross posting this over here. Anyone looking for a nice titanium road bike to add to your stable?

  11. Why would they travel all the way across the state? Did you mean LoanDepot Park, where the Marlins play?
  12. What team do you think this is? One can dream.
  13. I'm moving, so it's really about getting rid of the stuff I'm not taking with me. I'll list the bikes separately, and what doesn't sell, I'll have the Salvation Army come get. Thanks all.
  14. I have not had a garage sale in close to 15 years, and back then, the ex did all the grunt work. How are people advertising these things now? I'm not on Nextdoor. Is it worth joining just for this? If I put it on Craigslist, will 10,000 people show up at my house? What are typical cash alternatives for higher end items? PayPal? Venmo? Google Pay?
  15. Excuse me, sir. Seeing as how the V.P. is such a V.I.P., shouldn't we keep the P.C. on the Q.T.? 'Cause if it leaks to the V.C. he could end up M.I.A., and then we'd all be put on K.P.
  16. Maryanne was really the only person left that hade a résumé, and as already stated, she nailed final tribal. Clearly Romeo had no interest in winning or he would have taken Mike's advice and had Maryanne make fire. I was surprised that there was no mention at the after show of how dominant Jonathan was in the physical challenges. Clearly he was not the same toward the end after having so little food, but there has never been anyone like him on the show. It's a shame he did not have the brains to match the brawn.
  17. It's not like Omar had much of a choice, though if I were him, I would have certainly tried to convince her to give me the idol. It's possible that Lindsay was okay with Omar going home, and therefore did not want to protect him, but I don't think she could see the forest because of the giant Jonathan tree standing in front of her. In her defense, while Jonathan wasn't the greatest threat to win with Omar still in the game, he was the biggest obstacle to her winning challenges, even if it is unlikely that he could solve a two-piece puzzle, especially in a calorie starved state. While Maryanne got Omar out, a big assist has to go to Drea for exposing him as the threat that we all knew he was. I'm surprised that it has come to this, but Maryanne is the only player left who understands that at this point in the game, you need to be getting rid of the people who could win at the end. Mike and Jonathan both are stuck in "whatever gets me to next week" mode. Lindsay prizes challenge success over the game. Romeo just wants something to eat. I've been hoping that I was imagining things, but the editing has favored Maryanne all season. While I think anyone but Romeo could conceivably win at the end, things seem to be trending Maryanne. For anyone else to win, they will need to engineer the vote that eliminates her. Maybe everyone else will wake up and remember what the objective is to actually win.
  18. I can't really disagree with any of this. If no one figures out that Omar is driving everything soon, then he will win. He, Drea, and Lindsay seem the only ones likely to make any significant moves. Sadly, Romeo likely has a better chance to win than Jonathan because he's at least likely to be carried to final tribal as a non-threat. Jonathan's only chance is to win immunity the rest of the way, but there will eventually be some puzzles, and even without those, his size puts him at a disadvantage in too many challenges.
  19. Mike only finds out if he is on the jury. He could easily be a non-threat player that gets taken to final tribal. I'm pulling for Jonathan, but think Omar is playing the best social game by far.
  20. I guess I'm in the minority who actually like Jackson, but he definitely blew it in RW. He has been crushing it until now.
  21. To be fair, he looked like he was in his 70s during his playing days.
  22. I thought it was pretty straightforward. Only Hai, Jonathan, Maryanne, Lydia, and Lindsay could receive votes because of immunities. The current majority alliance worked to save Jonathan, and the safest option was to target Lydia. Those on the outside looking in split votes between Jonathan and Maryanne. Rocksroy is an outlier because Rocksroy. The only surprise was Hai being so willing to vote off Lydia after being willing to go to rocks to save her in episode 3. He won't even get to benefit from her being on the jury. This shows how strong Omar's social game is. His stock went way up for me, and he will be a force unless someone catches on and makes him a target.
  23. RIP, Rayfield, a legend from my favorite period as a Cowboys fan.
  24. I thought he was great in the Aquaman movies.
