  1. We stayed at this riad in Marrakech: http://www.riadkniza.com/ It's just inside the walls of Old Medina, so all the old city stuff (souks, historical sites, main square, etc) is very walkable, and it's also easy to leave the walls to check out the "modern" side of things which you'll likely want to do for some dining options. We did the hammam experience on site which was really cool, and they have a nice rooftop. The owner was very nice and served as our guide on a walking tour (not free, but worth it). I would not say he helped much on the haggling front. That was left to us. That can get stressful, but we had fun with the experience for the most part. Last thing I'd say is 7-8 days in Marrakech sounds like a lot to me unless you really are just planning to sit by the pool for a good portion of that, or if you plan on doing a ton of shopping. We were there during Ramadan. I would recommend trying to avoid that. It's weird eating and drinking during the day in front of people that can't. We didn't go anywhere else in Morocco as this was the end of a month on the road (spent mostly in Spain), so I can't help with the other questions.

    And of course I just looked back at the flyer, which very clearly states it's Kid Friendly. Ha, my bad. Thanks for the confirmation!

    @C-Man Would you say this is typically a kid-friendly event, or recommend a babysitter?

  5. We'll be up there May 16 - 24, which is "Early Season" so the Going to the Sun Road won't be open yet. Not ideal, but it's the timing that works for us. Hoping we'll miss some crowds by being early. I have a 3 year old. Can he do a kid's float trip? We are looking to rent a cabin somewhere between Glacier NP and Bozeman (where we fly out of). Any particular locations come to mind? Would like to relax a bit, but still do some hiking/fishing.
  6. My FIL won the putter in a closest to the pin challenge. I honestly don't think he has ever hit a putt with it, but obviously there are some minor dings visible on the bottom that got there somehow. The putter is currently with my FIL in Garden Oaks, Houston. I'm in Old East Dallas, and he makes frequent trips up here. Thinking $175. He'd probably throw in the Butterfinger tin to sweeten the deal.

    It's actually very easy to make. https://www.themediterraneandish.com/homemade-labneh-recipe/
  8. Can regular consumers buy these? Their website says the below. Best to use a professional? Are you a homeowner? Professional servicing by Pest Management companies is needed for the employment of the In2Care Mosquito Trap. Veseris can assist you to find Pest Control experts in your area.

  9. XMET is showing up as completely worthless in my account. I was riding on free shares and a little profit, but was hoping to get something for the remainder. Can they really just go to absolute zero? Same for others that still have some?
  10. @RCRanger03 Are you completely out of FPVD? I sold the majority of mine for a nice gain, but still have 50k shares. Can't decide if I should let it ride or cash in the $1k today.
  11. Bid Ask spread is pretty wide at the moment.

    Nothing wrong, just making sure you didn't see something saying they were closed longer. I'm glad you mentioned. We probably would've headed there after thawing out this weekend and been disappointed to find them closed.

    What makes you say this? Not sure when they closed, but my wife picked up a few things on Feb 3rd (glanced at cc statement), and their website says they're closed till 2/22 due to a single case. We live close, so we drive by/go pretty frequently. On weekends there is often a line to get in, and not uncommon during the week either. Pretty much been like that all pandemic. I certainly hope they're doing ok.
  14. -26F in Quebec City, 1/2/2014. Been skiing all my life and lived in Manhattan and shit for 10 years. -26 was...eye opening. Pick a summer in Texas for the high. Looks like it was 112 in Dallas in 2018. I was here then.
  15. A separate /WSB thread makes way more sense.
  16. I've definitely thought about that because I see the swings, but it's so hard to make myself get more invested in a company that has such dismal financials. I've got nothing but time though, so hopefully there's some long term growth.
  17. I've been holding this bag for a long time. In at an embarrassing 0.0169. Wondering if this is my chance to get out with less loss. It's also a small-ish position, so...to the moon or bust! Any idea why this is moving today? I don't see any news.
  18. I have some nilgai backstrap I'd like to cook this weekend. Would typically slice and pan fry. Any other good recs? Has anybody ever smoked a backstrap? Sous vide? Or stop trying to mess up a good thing? I see the stuffed backstrap above that looks pretty delicious. Recipe?
  19. What is going on with FRSX? Time to sell?
  20. You can now delete things from your browsing history in Amazon, FYI. Go to Your Account top right, click Browsing History, "Remove from view" the stuff you want to. Has been helpful for dildo Christmas shopping.
  21. Now that ALPP has crossed that glorious threshold, do you have any intention of selling? Or are you thinking this could go much higher? I'll def be sending you libations once I convert some of these unrealized gains, but don't let that bias you, ha.
