2 things - a) did Rory send a message, or peak a week too early (shot his wad at Quail Hollow)? b) Congrats to new dad Scottie - hoping he can make a run at the PGA and add true excitement into this season. x) would love to see Jordan somehow put together a week, compete and get some excitement into the PGA Championship about his career slam

Whew, dodged a bullet. Everyone should do their safe check in shit just so we know we didn't lose anyone to this traumatic event

The real question is Meredith going to hold out until after the PGA to drop that kiddo on the world, or is Scottie going to skip the Louisville major? All that drama in Augusta, and now a month later Scottie Jr. still waiting to hatch

My brother in-law, retired cop, says if you are going to prep you need to build up from the 3-Bs: Beans (meaning dry foods - beans, rice, pasta, wheat, and malt/barley to make your beer) Beverages (90% water, then your favored alcohol) Bullets (along with a reloader & supplies) here is an interesting site he sent me a few years ago - interesting source

- the 2023 speaker of the house voting thread of implosion
The R votes on this really tell the story of true MAGA support - R's voted 196-11 to table, or they have 11 votes in their own caucus to support removal of Johnson. I know this is just hopeful thinking, but I'd like to see this threat just go away and allow the house to actually get some legislative work done. Greene could well get reelected, but maybe even in her own district voters will start to realize how ineffective she is - but maybe they like having a loud mouth schnook; and to quote Foghorn Leghorn - she is about as smart as a bowling ball.- Markets still falling like whoa
Scared money don't make money. The best time to invest in BRK was yesterday, it will still be true tomorrow, as it was last week, last year, etc. Make it easy on yourself, $ cost average in over 6-12 months put 10-20% of the amount you want to invest every month, that way you avoid peaks and valleys relative to putting it in in one or two big chunks. Past performance is no guarantee of future results; beware the Wally/Reverse Wally curse- Markets still falling like whoa
I am starting to think that BRK.A/B has the same idea about buying shares when Warren does die. I mean that $190 billion in cash would certainly be available to support buying into the distresssed mark & last I read Warrens' stake in worth under $140 billion. Damn it they are going to front run me on this last of his lifetime event.- 2021 - Is inflation finally back in the conversation?
Wrong meme - should be the hard landing, because the Fed missed the airport to bring it in softly & now they are flying around and will slam it right into a slamming us all right into a recession. WIll the Fed ever figure out that driving, while looking in the rearview mirror means you should ease up sooner than you think. Dumbest thing ever was to keep stimulating as long as they did. Oh well, we need some sort of a reset anyway.- What old tech do you still have or use around the house or at work?
Major props for the slide rule; I wish I could find one like they had in the school when they taught how to use them. It was about 6 foot long and at least 2 foot wide, that would be a cool garage/techcave addition.- Markets still falling like whoa
LOL - great headline reading there. The actual answer is somewhere in those articles that you scanned Buffett told shareholders at Berkshire's annual meeting that his view on Apple's business hadn't changed and that the tech giant will likely remain the conglomerate's largest stock holding at the end of 2024. crowdsourced from Investopedia fwiw they did sell their entire position in Paramount full dislosure: I am sitting on my entire cash hoard (somewhat less than $90 billion) and waiting to buy on the dip when Old Uncle Warren kicks it, but that may be almost 10 years if his goal is to live longer than Charlie- 2024 PGA Tour
Hi Patrick, Do you enjoy being the golf villain?- Waiting for the sky to fall (Catch all tornado thread)
Mobile home park with lots of damage, and a FedEx facility damage that reportedly trapped about 50 workers inside for over an hour https://www.mlive.com/news/kalamazoo/2024/05/trapped-workers-at-fedex-building-escape-after-reported-tornado.html- 2024 Celebrity Death Pool
It makes me nervous to see Nicole posting in this thread; wondering if maybe she has something to do with the person passing away. (and just to be clear about the death pool rules - no points are awarded for a death, if you are involved the event. just sayin')- What the fuck is wrong with you, Houston? Non-CR thread
This hits close to home, well close to my first apartment in Houston over 40 years ago. That apartment is long gone & has been replaced by an IKEA, but still - damn, an argument over an order at McDonald's, I guess no onions means no onions- 2024 PGA Tour
If I recall right, he went to pursue fitness, like super for t and it hurt his swing. He had already been super successful, and Tiger was already becoming dominant, so why fight to get your A-game back to only be second best.- Lauren Boobert - Tits and a Gun
Don't ask me why I found this - but here is Boobsert with Mrs Gaetz Interesting pose - completely empty room and they are doing the standing snuggle- the 2023 speaker of the house voting thread of implosion
Anyone else thinking that ol' Three Toes has figured out she gets a lot of attention by threatening to make the motion to vacate; and she knows that it is not likely to pass. So why not just keep making threats, but then back away for some made up reason, only to rinse wash repeat the next week.- 2024 PGA Tour
Jordan doing Jordan things (remember when that meant he made a 60+ footer, or chipped in a couple of times) well today it means he is +1 so for and will need to go -3 or 4 for the rest of the round to make the cut. this is where his fan club is these days; watching and hoping he makes the cut Go Jordan Go, birdie man birdie- What old tech do you still have or use around the house or at work?
We still have 1 tube tv in our basement, I think it was purchased in the late 1990's. And yes there is a VCR player connected to it, though I am not sure the VCR works. There is also an answering machine connected to a "base" cellular phone that replaced our actual landline about 12 years ago. Mrs Fairway really likes both of these, though she never listens to the answering machine, and I don't either because I hate even having it. and I haven't give out that number in 20 years. Use your own definition of old tech- Lauren Boobert - Tits and a Gun
quite the subtle humblebrag right there - well done Mr Upper middle class or better upbringing. Bet you were also early adapter color and then a little later with cable TV- Markets still falling like whoa
I hate this market - just sayin' I've lost on hedging, all the while watching some of my investments decline. The system is rigged, because I don't know how to bet against my own investing.- "Citizen" journalism
After Xwitter was Elon'd, I stopped following Elon but that didn't work since half of the people on there retweet his crap; so the second step was to get off Xwitter myself. Best thing I ever did, about once a month I'll get on and look at what a few accounts have posted - but I think whatever I am missing out on is much less than dealing with all the crap that is on it. Anyway, I use Surly Daily New & 6th Street as a news aggregator - if it is important it will be here - the 2023 speaker of the house voting thread of implosion
