  1. I want to gain some hours of community service. It's not mandated or anything like that. I just have hours to spare at the moment. What's the best way to approach this?
  2. I don't visit this forum very often, but this thread caught my attention. My brother, sister, and I got to choose a song for my dad's funeral program. My brother chose, You are my sunshine. My sister chose Amazing Grace. I chose...... My borhter asked if it was a truck driver song or something beacuse we spend a lot of time on the road. Nah bro. Just listen.
  3. Did he steal that from someone's den or trophy room? Looks like a mount.
  4. That's funny. I'm going to start doing that when I check out of hotels. 4am sounds good? yeah, 4 am.
  5. Are y’all really trying to argue that bro is possibly Not working out in a jail? Far out.
  6. No need to bring Maverick into the conversation. Erroneous! Basically, I didn’t agree with the five stars. Glad you liked it.
  7. Thanks for the recommendation, but this didn’t really live up to that review. No good guys or good characters. Cool visuals though. French riots seam weak and lots of WTF tactical fighting decisions. Not worth reading subtitles in my opinion.

  9. Yeah, really cool. I just spent a half hour checking out last year's results. Cool builds. Are these kids building all of this from scratch? https://jamshow.org/results
  10. What? Why? Google: " Is vinyl chloride in cigarettes? Cigarette smoke contains 5.6 to 27 nanograms of vinyl chloride per cigarette. This amount is not immediately harmful, but over time it can cause serious damage to the liver."
  11. I thought Southpaw with Gyllenhaal was a pretty good boxing movie too.
  12. Still got it. I have too much invested to give it away for what other folks think it’s worth. My son is 13, so I’ll just keep it for his first truck in a couple of years. I need to drive it more so the few original things on it don’t rot while it’s in storage. I fired it up after my dads funeral. Other than a dead battery, it ran like a top. The interior is unbelievably clean. https://www.surlyhorns.com/board/topic/22521-new-motor-with-100k-gm-warranty-avalanche-ltz-new-interior-brakes-tires-more/#comment-4243433
  13. I was cleaning out my dads place after he passed away recently. Scored this nice little old-fashioned. Fits great in my pocket and is a good reminder of my dad.

    It would have been great if it would have been a stationary "cyclist" that got run over instead. lol.
  15. I've been on a Gosling binge this week/weekend. Crazy, Stupid, Love (2011) is an absolutley wonderful movie full of laughs, crys, and hot women. Drive was a great re-watch. The Place Behind the Pines is great and sad; it's basically two movies. The Nice Guys (2016) is one of the funniest movies I've seen in a long time, and it's really re-watchable. I intend to go back and re-watch Murder by the Numbers (2002) with Gosling and Sandra Bullock. I remember it being a great thriller. Also, to whomever recommended the movie "Men" (2022) by director Alex Garland (Ex Machina): I offer a friendly fuck you. That was a completely unnecessary movie, and it should not have been made.
  16. I was a recent ASE grad when Columbia exploded. I never really studied it beyond the understanding that foam struck the wing at liftoff, which damaged the wing heat shield. I looked up some articles today and there is a lot of information out there. One of the headlines really got me thinking. It stated that NASA knew the shuttle was damaged, and that it would break-up on re-entry. However they chose not to inform the crew. I was skeptical this could be true. I still don't know the answer exactly, but I found an amazing read about the full work-up for a rescue mission. This is an amazing read.
  17. I was talking to my brother last week, and we was encouraging me to get my son into studying A.I., because it will be taking all the jobs and then take over the world in the next 25 years. My response was, "Nah, A.I. will start making porn and then take over the world in a week."
  18. My sister is cutting checks to me and my brother for $3500 tomorrow to clean out most of the cash. Any reason not to take the check? Thread advise sounds like I'm good.
  19. I just want to say thanks to this thread. I sold my recently deceased father's truck for cash, title in hand. I kept the plates, registartions sticker and toll tag. We filled out the online transfer of title notice before handing over the keys. Nice guy buyer sent me a picture the same day with new plates and registration sticker on the truck. Square deal. No BS. Thanks Surly.
  20. Thanks. This is all way out of my knowledge base. My sister is listed as the only beneficiary on the life insurance. The will says we split everything three ways. @TwiceHorn, is it really that simple. Next year, I just say it was due to death and it's all tax free? I realize that this is not a lot of money, so I wouldn't be suprised if that's the case. You stated two different tax returns. Do I need a CPA? Or is this pretty easy on turbotax?
  21. My father passed away and left a little money to me and my two siblings. It should work out to be a bout $45k each. My sister is the only listed beneficiary, so the funds will flow to her then to me and my brother by checks written from her to us. We are listed in the will as equal thirds in the will. The $135k comes from 3 sources: $100k life insurance, $50k in an unsual real estate deal, and $15k in cash; minus $15k in funeral expenses. I'm pretty sure my sister isn't going to a have an income tax exposure, but I'm concerned my brother and I will be subject to income tax on the $45k each. Is there anything we can do to shield the inheritance from taxes? Am I overthinking this?
