  1. The Social Dilemma covered that one and you're right. Social media sites push people towards what they believe to be similar thinkers. It's one reason there is no Facebook, Twitter, etc on any device or computer that I own. College football forums are the extent of my social media.
  2. I forgot what a shitty poster you are. Now it's coming back to me.
  3. Where did I say he was the only one? He is certainly one of the most visible.
  4. He's a hypocrite. That's what upsets people. If it puts money in his pocket he ignores it.
  5. It's even worse that a senior government official did something similar.
  6. We hired a new guy on Monday. He followed up and filled out his paperwork which is a big plus. Fingers crossed that he shows up on May 3rd. Had an interview setup for 11 am yesterday. He no showed and didn't answer his phone or respond to texts. People suck.
  7. See, that's the thing. People want items cheap, cheap, cheap and then they bitch about what companies have to do to produce cheap, cheap, cheap. I'm all for everyone being able to earn a fair wage and live a good life but there's a cost and it's higher prices on goods and services.
  8. https://www.cincinnati.com/story/news/local/hamiltoncounty/2021/04/20/cincinnati-police-charge-13-year-old-girl-stabbing-death-another-teen/7298533002/ Yeah, you're right. Let's just let the 13 year old girls kill each other like what happened in Cincinnati this week.
  9. Hiring new employees right now is a bitch. I could double or triple my business immediately if I could just find labor and then have them actually show up on day one for work.
  10. Agree on all points and the unlapping makes sense given the explanation.
  11. McLaren made a mistake not putting Norris on mediums. Ferrari was very strong today. The race for third in Construtors will be fun this year. Riccardio did Norris no favors by not defending Hamilton better. I thought Russell and Bottas both made mistakes in that incident. I hate the ability to unlap under red. Those guys were fairly lapped. Bullshit that they get a get out of jail free card to get back into the race.
  12. I'm looking into a dedicated wine transportation service. Domaine is headquartered in Washington, DC. If not, I will take 2-3 cases down with me in my vehicle and store the rest in Virginia until temperatures are cooler.
  13. That's my thought as well. We're renting a climate controlled storage unit in Virginia. I may store it there and then move it down at a later date. There's a lot of sentimental value in that wine and I don't want to damage it.
  14. Moving truck. Maybe two days. It’s 1100 miles.
  15. Question on moving wine. We're moving down to Naples, FL in July. While I don't drink the wines that some here drink on a regular basis I do have about 250 bottles to move down. We will have a moving company move us. My concern is that three days in the back of a moving truck will not be good for the wine. Suggestions?
  16. Plus you never have to set foot on St. Maarten which is a bonus. It's not my favorite island though it is close to two gems. St. Barths and Anguilla.
  17. If you're riding the ferry take dramamine and sit up top. If seas are choppy at all it can be a puke fest inside. Other than that it's an incredible high-end island. If you fly in you're in for the landing of your life.
  18. Eh, it was the first repercussion that popped into my head. A whole lot of people wouldn't want a possible ding on their credit. Honestly, those that don't aren't worth going after because they might not even have two nickels to rub together. Look at the traffic stops that were on LivePD. A large number of the people pulled over were struggling to put a roof over their heads. Paying a moving violation is that last thing on their minds. It's just further down the money hole they're already in.
  19. Cop sees a minor moving violation, expired tags, etc. Take a photo of the tags and send a ticket in the mail. If the ticket isn't paid in 90 days report it to the credit bureaus. There's no need for needless conflict on the side of the road or for putting lives at risk on the side of the road (including the cop who runs risk of being hit in many circumstances). If there's a SERIOUS warrant out for the driver then call for backup and act accordingly.
  20. I'm a little tired of Norway comparisons. It's not like that is the US. It's just a terrible comparison. The US is the most armed country in the world. I am NOT defending the police but there is an inherent risk every time they answer a call or pull a car over.
  21. This situation was escalated when the cops came out screaming and with guns drawn. The cop never lowered his tone and spoke. He screamed the entire time. I'd be scared shitless too.
  22. You just hate to see it.
  23. Yes I am.
  24. I've been to Hemmingway's house in Cuba. This one is a must watch for me.
