  1. RE: Luke In the expanded universe, the Thrawn and Jedi Temple trilogies, I thought he wrestled with it a bit. As far as this take on Luke goes, his two mentors hammered in to him attachment issues because his dad turned Vader on them due to attachments, and they were rightfully terrified he’d do the same (turned out they should have had that talk with both kids). As he is struggling to rebuild the Jedi in his own, with only the teachings of Obi Wan and Yoda plus his personal experiences, I could see him trying to over correct that direction. It is just a matter of how you tell the story of that character. I trust Filoni to mostly do that correctly.
  2. So the Andor show comes out before Ahsoka, and Rebels certainly (obviously) crossed paths with quite a bit of the rebel alliance building, something Hera seemed to be involved in. I wonder if it will be like Bobba Fett - a vehicle to move the Rebels storyline along using an established movie character to introduce to the unwashed masses the clone wars characters Hera and possibly Sabine or Zeb.
  3. Kickstarter has been around over a decade? Fuck that makes me feel old.
  4. Had my physical and respirator fit today. Technician said I could blow like not other! …wait a second… Max sure to hit the bike in addition to weights today. Save my first beer for Mandolorian tonight. This is the way.
  5. You’re old loan won’t change. Your new house shouldn’t take a rate hit because it is where you will be moving and be your primary residence
  6. I know there was a YouTube cut that deleted all Jarjar dialogue years ago. That improved things in episode 1. I thought I remember trying to find a cut version but they were all fan or spam crap. Surely there is a legit fan edited version of 2 and 3 that is only about 90 minutes long by now. Right? If not, who wants to set up the Kickstarter? eta - maybe there are enough scenes in 3 to put at the begging of the 2-3 mashup to make you feel like obi wan and anakin actually like each other.
  7. And General Grievous.
  8. Was jk. I eat quite a bit of plain Greek yogurt myself. Makes for a nice change up, and actually taste good with some blueberries or strawberries
  9. I think you must have made a typo.
  10. Finally closed on the 2 cash outs. Thank you Phil, Thad and Dana! First round of hookers and blow using what is supposed to be investment money is on me. Im a bit burned out, and rather than try to find something to buy and fix up, I’m tempted to buy 2-3 SF or a smaller 2-4 plex that is already ready to rent. But that would get me back to my points earlier - it would only be investing and hoping for appreciation. Easier methods to invest.
  11. Galaxy is a big place. They don’t all have to be making trench runs on the Death Star. And really the only people that were going to be difficult were the Jedi that were supposed to have been all wiped out. But that was from Obi Wans point of view, and Filoni has already done a good job blending/weaving Ahsoka, Kanan, and Ezra in to the post prequel/preOT timeline.
  12. The kid clone would be correct age. And they used Rex at about equivalent age as the older ones in Rebels. Actually, wasn’t it confirmed that one of them was retconned in to the assault group on Endor?
  13. 199 on my weigh in at the beginning of the month. 193 today. Going to bump my weekday calories to 1650 on Monday. Will definitely be having a few beers Sunday, but I’m only going to buy singles so I’m not tempted to have one or two every night.
  14. Beacon, egg, cheese, avocado, and salsa (maybe sour cream too) wrapped in a tortilla is why America is great.
  15. My pull-up tree that was also the kids climbing tree in the backyard took a hit during that higher wind cold front we had in October last year. Wife got me a power tower (pull-ups, dips, ab leg lift movement). Finally out it together today. Might not be able to lift my arms tomorrow! Is nice to have a quick way to go do pull-ups again
  16. Not sure if this is the right place, but we just got an HSA option at work and we have the option to invest if we want. Our options are vsiax, vbmpx, vttsx (2060 target date), vigix, and vftax. I know nothing about these other than the 1/5/10/life are all over 18% for the last one, and only vigix and vsiax are close to that. Any advice?
  17. If they’re still pulling the cast together, we don’t get the series until mid 2023 at best, correct?
  18. On Bolivar - either septic or tie in to the sewer line run by some company. It’s a small lot, and that close to beach requires aerobic system, so we’re going to tie in to sewer line. Being so flat, requires a grinder pump. The compound has a sewer line running down the middle (rectangle shape, road down the middle long way). There were actually 3 RVs at one point with at least 2 sewer tie ins. I’m hoping I can reuse at least those 2. Since RVs use so much less water, I’m hoping they’ll let me put 2-3 rvs per sewer tie in.
  19. In order of purchase starting 2018: 1 duplex that cash flows well, 1 2 bdrm that I Airbnb Str but am moving toward nurse finder medium term for non summer, a 4 bdrm Airbnb, and a…um…property that is a “handyman special” that has a triplex, 1-1, and 3-1 on it. Only the 3-1 is currently livable, and in addition to fixing up the other 2 buildings were going to add 6-10 rv spots. We also have an empty lot on Bolivar fairly close to the beach we bought just before the compound that we’re going to toss and rv pad on to rent. edit to add - the 2 bdrm didn’t cash flow well until this year when we got a nurse in there for about 5 months at a higher rate than we could long term it for. So between that and the summer months it has been a good 12 months. The appreciation has been great though - bought it for 85, put in about 20, appraised last month for 240. The 4 bdrm only breaks even, but a similar story on the appreciation.
  20. Posted a job for trench job on Facebook and Craigslist. Nothing but scam / bots from CL. Got a couple interesting applications local from FB. Picked one for $400 said he was going to hand dig it. Got another message from someone new today - guy I'm paying $400 subbed it out for $150 to someone else on Facebook! And he didn't pay him. I'm staying out of it
  21. What are you curious to hear? It’s my side hobby/long term retirement, but my experience so far is 1) if you want cash flow look at 2-4plex 2) if you want (hope for) long term appreciation look at single family and 3) if you aren’t buying a property that you are planning on doing work to to increase the value, all you’re doing is investing, and it would probably be easier to buy reis
  22. I’d eat the fuck out of that right now
  23. I understand why she is your ex.
