Anybody tried it? If you lose a hand, you keep doubling the bet and you are eventually back to even because "you won't lose them all." Skim the profit when you win a hand, and only use profits for splits and doubles. What could go wrong?

There was a plot twist to this too that I'm not sure how it finally resolved, maybe one of our Surly lawyers can answer. Jeremy knew his goose was cooked. So he and his wife filed some kind of "partition" agreement and he filed for personal BK the very next day or something like that. I'm sure a plan to avoid creditors but can you do that? https://caselaw.findlaw.com/us-5th-circuit/1780808.html

Was the defendant's name Jeremy Wiggains? He was a childhood friend but I lost track of him 30 years ago. He owned a used car dealership in Dallas selling "high line" stuff. Rolls, Bentley, Ferrari, etc. He got busted and house raided by the FBI about 5 years ago. Something about selling the cars twice - once to Park Place and also to his actual customer. Not sure how he ever expected to get away with it. Cash probably was tight for a couple months and he found a "creative" way to stay afloat until it finally caught up to him. Edit: just saw the other posts so different guy. But still: https://www.dallasobserver.com/news/park-place-motorcars-says-preston-hollow-man-business-partners-stole-dozens-of-luxury-cars-7127662

About ten years ago my wife no pics served on a Travis county jury that awarded $25 million to Texas Disposal Systems in a civil case vs Waste Management. At the time it was the largest civil verdict in Travis county history, maybe still is. /csb

It appears we have a Surly consensus. Has this ever happened?

Update - I do have the schedule option you describe to close the door. My bad. But my remote lockout feature not available.

Make sure you'll get the features you want with a retrofit. I have a Liftmaster smart opener with the app and all that baked in. I don't see a way to set schedules. The feature I would like to see is a schedule that locks out remotes at 10pm or whatever. Only way to open the door is from "inside the house!" (whatup Scream) or via the app. But nope.

How much impact does shingle color have on attic temps? My newish neighborhood has a bunch of dark gray roofs. If vented properly, no big deal? You don't see too many lighter color roofs even in places like Arizona so I'm guessing the delta must be fairly small.

Tell me more about the alarms. Make/model, etc.

Half question, half advice. If the case is pretty open and shut like OP's appears to be, how much negotiating leverage does he have? Giving up 30-40% of your case to a trial lawyer seems awfully rich. If the insurance company has already accepted liability like he says, could he find a lawyer to paper the deal for 10-15% - or better yet, a flat fee?

Very cool. Who was your pro you saw for putting?

Now a serious reply. Get a metronome app for your phone. 75 BPM is a good starting point, but adjust to what feels good. I like 72. Take away on one tick and make contact on the next, regardless of length of putt. Practice for an hour, then take away the metronome and practice another hour, but try to "hear" the ticks in your mind. Focusing on the ticks will take away the yips. Good luck and report back.

Putts only break one way if you have two putters. You've eliminated 50% of the challenge. Best value club in the bag.

Update. Used Quotacy.com and it was a good experience. Policygenius also good but not quite as personal. Quotacy gave me a dedicated rep and Policygenius didn't so I'd recommend them for that reason alone really. Everything else was easy. Ethos had weird carriers with low coverages unsuitable for Surly 1%. Lemonade flat out denied me.

Trying Policygenius which seems good so far, but Quotacy.com is the current leader in the clubhouse. We'll see how it works out.
