JJ Not a bad start.

Neither looking and sounding like one is from Texas, nor the converse, are badges of honor. The whole idea is stupid.

Yes, its amazing how a display of common decency from a Republican candidate is alarmingly refreshing.

As was the Lousiana connection

Been also doing TVZ version of Dead Flowers, having fun with the double base line rambling picking version of Freight Train. Then the Fleetwood Mac thread had me trying out some acoustic version of Tusk. (!) The singing part is damn fun, but irritates the hell out of the wife. From the posts above, I think Baby Please Don't Go is next.

Texas is not so bad at bed shittery either.

Yes, it's best to keep any taste for Rush to oneself. In the car alone, for example. And then only for 2 or 3 songs. Like any addiction. Secretly.

Might check sarcasm meter.

Great to know Suzie is on the case. Should it come to a vote....

The book rationale is that in cost plus you are bearing more cost uncertainty, and in fixed price the GC is bearing more. But, for both, the change order process is their way to recover most unforseen issues. It all boils down to the quality of the GC and their subs. But, for empirical data: a significant remodel in Seattle about 5 years ago was cost plus. We uncovered lots of issues so the scope exploded. Fixed price would not have been much help there. But, the productivity of the GC's own guys was too low. Put some productivity terms in your contract. An even more significant remodel in FL last year went fixed price, with the largest GC in town. They ended up being as professional as I was used to in industry. An 8 month schedule ended up 9, due to having to stop for a hurricane. Cost came in just a tad under bid, and I got that difference, due to the contract. This job was 3x the size of the Seattle job. If schedule is not that critical, your brother plan can work, if you put a whole lot of attention into it, and incentivise him appropriatetly through a contract.

Well, that's what this board is for, right? A bit of reasonable speculation. Anyway, Duffey for heisman next week.

To borrow from Roma, the sides aren't the parties, the sides are the Trumpists and the anti Trumpists, and, yes, the latter are fighting for the rule of law. Cuz the Trumpists. Additionally, incredulity is a fallacious basis for argument. But you are ironic, and shit.

Oh, that imagery. I hate myself.

😎Great. So, the engineering and hard science people piss on your character.

Ok, Atticus. What's your educational background? So we can then judge the entirety of your character.

Nothing to see here, move along.

Yea, I discovered Bekinsdale in, and liked, Cold Comfort Farm. Certainly a chick flick. Amusing, perhaps, diverting, but never fun.

It ain't personal, bc. Everyone has their imperfections.

That was, in fact, my point(s). Happy to be a Satan in Q eyes. Fuck bama.

Glad to be on Satan's team. Better than Saban's.

This is the right perspective. A big step forward. Rome wasn't built in a day, etc. Or we may just be circling the drain, Brisket style. But I will call this good. Have to say, that FL vote count progression was like the WVU game. You saw it coming, but, fuck.

Not that I know shit, but I hadn't seen that combo.

If the spot had been changed one iota, no timeout charged, and, I'm not sure if the challenge is retained. Not sure about any of this, given how the rules change.

Well, sure it would be massive upset. Some massive things are good.

That's a good joke. But, 2 years ago I had to handle a tearful phone call from my then 29 yr old daughter (no pics) over that result.
