  1. I bought a Canik once. I sold it. Pretty good just not for me.
  2. Not since bob stoops has there been such a punchable face
  3. The only issue with my 4Runner (2021) is keeping it aligned. I’ll keep it for at least a decade. It’ll probably be my kids second car after they total my wife’s Ford explorer. I have issues in the 4Runner with road shake at 60mph -65mph. I went through several rounds of wheel balancing at two different shops, tire swaps and ultimately an alignment adjustment to minimize the shake. My next step if it comes back is to swap out a needle bearing.
  4. Does your good friend need another good friend?
  5. Yep. Thin around the stadium but it was a good atmosphere inside.

    Shit My Kid Says

    I was trying to dive home the importance of wearing a coat to the bus stop when it’s freezing or raining “There’s no such thing as bad weather, just being poorly dressed for the weather provided” Response: “I’ll remember that when we have a tornado”.
  7. Yeah. I don’t use parking mode. The cameras come on when the car turns on.
  8. I have VIOFO 119 and 119 minion my two cars. They work well enough and easy to install. I don’t care much for the phone app.
  9. This was a very entertaining game. Go Navy!
  10. I had a hunch this was going to be an issue. Getting people committed to the first round when there are hopefully 3 more after is a big $$ ask for fans at an inconvenient window right before Xmas. For a team that isn’t favored, they may be more inclined to go to the first round game. If you are one of the top four teams expecting to win the first two rounds, it is easier to shift the assets to the games after the new year. I hope we fill the stadium but I have doubts.
  11. Red one - the rock and Chris Evans save Santa Now on prime. That seemed quick… Movie is enjoyable enough.
  12. If we weren’t offsides he would not have made those throws.
  13. This one is 45mm case and 22mm bracelet
  14. The gun frame is short in relation to the slide. It looks like an overbite.
  15. We have three boys in middle school. Their snacks of choice are apples and strawberries. We probably go through 4 apples and a pound of strawberries a day. She does the grocery shopping on Saturday. Anyone want to take a guess as to how many apples and pounds of strawberries she comes home with? Bonus points if you can guess what day of the week I am asked to stop and pick up more fruit. I have taken to going to Costco and buying supplemental fruit on Sunday to get us to at least Wednesday.
  16. It is preferred to stay in your name (I believe) as the 529 in the moms name counts as an asset when it comes to financial aid calculations. A 529 In your name or a grandparents name, they qualify easier for needs based financial aid.
  17. Just checked morningstars report on 529 plans. Nevada has been downgraded from gold when we started to bronze. Utah Pennsylvania and three others are gold. the expense ratio in Utah is vanguard like (<0.1%) which is less than the 0.8% I see on the Nevada plan. The Nevada plan has some options for investment broadly but their age based portfolio is already transitioned to moderately conservative (45% equities 55% fixed income) so I expect my gains to be minimized while the fees are the same. Is it worth it to move my funds to Utah to get the lower fees if my kids are in middle school?
  18. I Bought some Ariat boots while in Nashville for the game last week. Ariat Men's Sport Wide Square Toe Cowboy Boot They’re comfy but I bought a half size too big. I had also tried on Ariat Bench Made which I really liked but they did not have my size in the color I wanted. tried Tecovas too but I wasn’t sold on them. anyway, this sent me down the rabbit hole and ended up with Chisos #2 when I got back to town. time to break them in. fuck boots are expensive.
  19. a year and a half later and regrets?
  20. I’m always looking for a burnt orange knife in a style I like. Until I fork over the $300 for the latest Sage 5, these will have to do: Benchmade Bailout kershaw Iridium reate box cutter leatherman juice The bailout feels the best but the iridium is pretty good. With the iridium at $50 while the Bailout is $200, it is a better value.
  21. I took the kids. It was pretty good. there was a dusty moment but it kept moving.
