  1. That is a real nice way of calling him a fucking idiot.
  2. I shit you not. My 10 month old toddled up to the coffee table just now with something in her mouth. It was the missing pusher cap. Of all fucking things for her to find on the floor. She got extra strawberries with dinner tonight.
  3. Got a hold of the service center this morning and crossing my fingers that it's not too pricey of a fix. Went to M. Robinson to see if they could send it off and they wanted to charge $100 just to ship it off. Omega will send you prepaid shipping if you call them first. The jeweler also quoted me a repair time of 3 months and the folks at Omega said it's usually 4-5 weeks, which I can live with.
  4. Thumb was fielding a ground ball at third that took a bad hop into my chest. Put a bare hand on it, the wrong way and took the nail off and broke everything up into my metacarpal. The watch? Carrying my kids shit into out beach house. Fuck.
  5. Tried to “bowling ball” your mom. Her butt hole did that.
  6. Well, fuck. That was quick.
  7. You of all people should know the rules around here. In all seriousness, beautiful piece. Congrats!
  8. Didn’t realize this thread was still alive. Currently on the safehold series and looking for a reason to stop. Book 3 seems like it’s really dragging the story out at this point. May give the Powder Mage trilogy a shot or that frontline series.
  9. Sam is going to crush so much strange in the midwest
  10. After Fields drops to the late first round tonight, Sark should really only say one thing to Ewers - “Coaches, not schools, develop players. It just so happen that Ohio State sucks dick at developing quarterbacks no matter how you frame it.”.
  11. Eat it up man. You only get 2-3 moments like that.
  12. @immamac "We're coming everywhere!" - New surly podcast tagline.
  13. Nice nursery. The wife and I are thinking of getting a SNOO when our daughter arrives in July. Let me know how it works out for you. Our latest iteration was iffy on the SNOO. Was the only thing that could get her to sleep some days, hated it the next. Make sure you lease it or get one second hand. $1100 is a lot of money for something they might hate or will only use for a few months. Best wishes for a healthy and happy little one.
  14. Possible future residence. In the short term, we’d like the play to somewhat pay for itself when aren’t there. The cap rates in Estes, according to airdna, are alright. Plus we like the access to the park.
  15. Mind sharing which area you looked in? We’re honestly not set on a ski town. We’d be just fine with a place in Estes.
  16. Anyone have any experience with a second home purchase? My company was fortunate enough to be one of the ones that wasn't effected by COVID and the stock price is up 200% since I had a large LTI grant awarded. Mrs.'s FromTheMailRoom and I are considering investing in a second home with some of the proceeds of the RSUs maturing and we've pretty much decided on somewhere in Colorado (Estes/Snowmass) with plans on spending 30-60 days each year there. Any thoughts, pro-tips, or gotchas we should be aware of?
  17. Good for him. He showed us a few ranches two years ago. Super, super nice guy.
  18. Christmas came early. I’m very pleased with it.
  19. @G650 @ChiTownDoc got busy af with work. Still owe you two a couple of pm’s. Finally got a price I was comfortable with and pulled the trigger on a favorite here. Should be here the 26th.
  20. I’ll shoot you both pms. She is serious.
  21. She is looking to sell them. How many best by coupons you willing to add to the mix? In all seriousness, @G650 @ChiTownDoc, I’m a little out of my depth on super high end vintage secondary markets. Any thoughts?
  22. I was talking with our nanny yesterday and brought up that I was going to look at an IWC moon and tide that afternoon. She casually mentions that her father (a retired and well know Austin area pediatrician) was recently moved to hospice and he was a big watch guy. She had a bunch of his collection at her house and had no idea what to do with them or what they were. I told her to bring some of them by today and I’d take a look. I about shit my fucking pants when she pulled them out. No joke, she had 4 vintage patek phillipes, a vintage grand seiko, and solid gold piaget emperador. All in all, about $150k in watches, all with original receipts, all with original hand signed documents from the manufacturer. That was just what she brought over for me to look at. I told her to get a safety deposit box immediately and call her home owners policy holder to get a rider that covers the collection. Seriously some fucking epic watches. Here’s a couple of them
