  1. It’s insane how that little Japanese lady generates power. At least little Schwartzito has some muscle and core strength. She looks like she weighs about 100 pounds.
  2. I just don’t trust Sabalenka under pressure. Ryba 4 and 3. Lets go Karen!
  3. We’re walking at the beach, which is mostly gone thanks to the asshole atmospheric river. Yeah the droughts over but what about my personal inconvenience ! Chocolate is not impressed.
  4. I can’t understand a word of that salad. I am starting to see how olds felt about the internet when it came around.
  5. @Baboontyme sorry to hear about what happened. RIP Louise, she looks like a sweet dog. Phenobarbital is the devil as a medication for seizures. We finally got chocolate off it completely and switched to Keppra which has resulted in going back to normal weight, fewer seizures (one grand Mal during the weaning), and a much happier dog. Phenobarbital has the added bonus of harming liver and kidney and the central nervous system. Our new vet said she won’t prescribe it unless nothing else will work. Keppra is tough because the animal needs three doses a day but it’s amazing to see the difference.
  6. I don’t think so. My 16 yo son has both a regular fidelity account and a Utma account with stock in them.
  7. Yup. He looked completely at a loss on how to close it out when Ruud was throwing softballs at him.
  8. Holy shit the level of incompetence is mind boggling. He really should reduce staff to a few Qanon followers to see how it goes. That way he doesn’t have to worry about their loyalty.
  9. They are definitely full of something. JPow got the Rona so here we go!
  10. Funny the guy stanning for fat Ons is on Bianca’s case. She is a top talent but her injuries have really hurt her play style and I don’t see her being a threat any more. Calling it now, not that it’s surprising. Nadal retires after the French. Djoker keeps winning for another two or three years barring a freak injury. There’s no one close to his level outside of Medvedev and Alcaraz, and neither of them are complete enough yet to beat him even 1/3 off the time.
  11. Sorry not getting involved with any George Sharp plays. I get a real bad feeling about that guy.
  12. At least you can eat this one. I am pretty convinced now that the one utility I saw in crypto, which was avoiding exchange commissions in foreign currencies, is totally ruined by the volatility in the coins. My brother used BTC because of this but lately he’s been acknowledging he’d be better off just accepting the skim from a currency trader.
  13. I read this thread instead of going out on the Highway during ice storms to see slow moving wrecks.
  14. Were they in a sunga? Bonus points for being robbed by a guy in a banana hammock and helmet.
  15. Caracas, Venezuela in 1995 I sat in traffic for 4 hours from airport to hotel. Never seen that many “classic “ cars before. Gas was something like 8 or 9 cents per gallon. Second worst was São Paulo, Highway to Rio (via Dutra). South America has epic traffic jams.
  16. I’m not reading Lincoln Highway based on what I’ve seen but rules of civility is in my queue.
  17. I think username fits perfectly. Hulk smash!
  18. What kind of fucking top 10 has 15 cities listed? Get the fuck out. And yeah those are b horrific amounts of wasted time.
  19. Either @PilotsError is Elon or his biggest fan. Pretty funny neg.
  20. Lol, these mental midgets ought to get rid of their hood fans and let the gas stove run even when not cooking. That’s how you get libtard tears flowing!
  21. Thanks everyone who has been posting. It’s impressive the collective knowledge you bring to this. I’m taking notes. Now go fuck off again.
  22. The other author he reminded me of in characterization was Mark Helprin, who wrote two books I really like - A Soldier in the Great War and Memoir from Antproof Case. His other work isn’t nearly as good. My opinion of course.
  23. Finished A Gentleman in Moscow, it’s one of my top five books ever right now. Fantastic how Towles made that story work in such a small setting with great characters. The Bishop was a great antagonist. Reading From Strength to Strength (a sort of guide to retiring) and seeing a lot of the reasons I feel like it’s time to hang it up articulate much better than I could. It is a little hokey on some of the advice but the decline in skill and liquid intelligence is real. I have seen it in other people and I’m noticing it in my career now, starting at 25 years in (I am over 27 years in now).
