  1. It’s well seasoned.
  2. Went country style this weekend.
  3. One of them put me in a hospital with a herniated disc. She skipped the ballet and went straight to slam dancing. Need to cross post this to the Vegas thread.
  4. Ah, the Great Firewall of China. Another fun attraction. Was fine for me as I intentionally did not do much online while I was there.
  5. Tokyo is a lot of fun and so is Osaka. If you can hit Kyoto it’s pretty awesome for traditional sites and ceremonies. Like a geisha show and tea ceremony. And their onsens are a great experience to the culture. Shanghai is really nice and vibrant but also check out Hangzhou which is a little south of there. Marco Polo (the OG) called it heaven on earth. West Lake there is beautiful. I went many years ago and called it the Austin of China. It’s blown up now. Where a lot of great tech was born (Alibaba). Beijing is cool and the Great Wall is a must see. Have fun…I could hit Asia every year!
  6. Appreciate the math wiz on the board. I did this for fun and not to “make money.” I will be holding this and all my BTC for a very long time. I’m one of the believers on this board. I’ll pull out this Ledger drive once or twice a year and likely keep smiling. \m/
  7. .0214676 BTC They took some cut of the mining...but for one unsused rig running in a spare bedroom for 3 years....not too bad...and was fun to watch and check on. I don't think electricty was much and will be curious to track as I see what "normal" is now for the next couple months. $2,099. USD value as of this morning.
  8. Just shut down my old gaming rig that was running an NVidia 1080 GPU. Was really “old” but I had for fun set it to mining BTC for the last three years. Used NiceHash and they just moved to Switzerland. With new rules it’s not making “money” anymore because it doesn’t generate enough BTC each month to meet their minimum transfer amount. Will be cool one day to talk about actually being part of the BTC mining community. Was fun. Will now be able to figure out what electric costs we’re doing. Also, helped me set up my first Ledger drive. I was able to cash out my BTC before their new rules, basically eliminating one machine “hobby” miners. Will likely save that processor as that’s what turned me on to NVDA and will be a good piece of my crypto history.
  9. Applewood smoked ham with American cheese on a fresh roll. Cheese enchiladas for dinner so had to go light for lunch.
  10. We had a great time in SMA over new years. Mexico has become a must for me at least once a year. The food scene is awesome,..people are great and the dollar goes a long way.
  11. CAP is awesome. I did it. It’s a great avenue to get to UT if that’s your goal. Time flies and you’re on the 40 acres before you know it. Best of luck.
  12. This is super bad ass
  13. Hope this makes him snap back to reality.
  14. Feels like BTC wants to move up. It’s about that time.
  15. First game at tOSU is going to be….as my kids would say….fire. Can’t wait. 🔥
  16. Bro with the headband. I can’t.
  17. Yeah, I know. The more I have had to deal with insurance the more I realize their MO is to decline anything possible and pay lowest. Thought about this and the percentage they would want. Not sure this case is that big. Maybe it's something an hour with a good attorney he can get some tactics to use himself. Happened in Austin.
  18. Friend just called. His wife was in an accident that totaled her vehicle. Other driver was cited. She has a back injury and the other insurance is trying to get them to settle asap and they aren’t sure how serious it is yet. Any attorney recommendations would be helpful…unless there is a way for my buddy to handle it himself. Not sure what attorney fees are here and if a % is involved. Appreciate any thoughts.
  19. RT versus Beard tomorrow night. *popcorngif
  20. Chili has beans. Fight me. \m/
