  1. The worst thing about this world is the fucking names. Say what you want about GRRM but he was very good at inventing names that were easy to pronounce and remember. Tolkien is all Gwyyndwethior marched towards Morigatqypkk with the Akkcvbnm wizard, Onegiop’zeriiy, at his side.
  2. Jack does not give a fuck while giving all the fucks. Gruntled.
  3. Nate Silver got lucky with one poll years ago and his models have been complete shit since then.
  4. Ticket prices were released and they’re not bad at all… Cardiff, London, Edinburgh Pitch Standing – £135.00 (face value) plus fees Seats – £65 (face value) plus fees Seats – £90 (face value) plus fees Seats – £115 (face value) plus fees Seats – £150 (face value) plus fees Seats – £185 (face value) plus fees Premium Standing Package – £195 (face value) plus fees Premium Seat Package – £250 (face value) plus fees
  5. Some utilities and pipeline companies that used to have a pension, have replaced it with a 401K match + a profit sharing contribution. Where I used to work, we had the standard 6% 401k match and we also had a 5% profit sharing 401k contribution. That was implemented 20 years ago to replace the pension. You could look around at companies and see if any offer a version of that. That 11% company contribution was awesome and the only reason I stayed over 15 years.
  6. I'll probably grab London tickets. They're doing four dates at Wembley. It shouldn't be an issue getting tickets.
  7. I don't give a shit about LOTR lore. Just entertain me with a decent plot and coherent storytelling.
  8. RBFCU? There are like 3 registers that will read my debit card chip at the Allandale HEB. The self check out worker said that RBFCU always has problems with their readers.
  9. Only Murders in the Building is back tonight.
  10. A friend went to work for ERS out of college. At the time, I thought that was a waste of a finance degree. He's currently a Portfolio Manager making $400,000. Assuming no more raises, he'll retire in the next year or two, and with 30 years of state service his pension will be over $275,000/year for life. He's never worked more than 40 hours a week.
  11. So, she wasn't really missing? Otherwise the boyfriend would've been arrested for something other than outstanding warrants.
  12. "Several". The flight selection is a big reason we will retire in CO. Asia Tokyo-Narita, Japan (NRT) Canada Calgary (YYC) Edmonton (YEG) Montreal (YUL) Toronto (YYZ) Vancouver (YVR) Winnipeg (YWG) Caribbean Grand Cayman, Cayman Islands (GCM) Montego Bay, Jamaica (MBJ) Nassau, Bahamas (NAS) Central America Belize City, Belize (BZE) Liberia, Costa Rica (LIR) Panama City, Panama (PTY) Roatan, Honduras (RTB) San Jose, CR (SJO) Europe Dublin, Ireland (DUB) Istanbul, Türkiye (IST) London-Heathrow, United Kingdom (LHR) Frankfurt, Germany (FRA) Munich, Germany (MUC) Paris, France (CDG) Reykjavik, Iceland (KEF) Zurich, Switzerland (ZRH) Mexico Cancun (CUN) Cozumel (CZM) Chihuahua (CUU) Guadalajara (GDL) Mexico City (MEX) Monterrey (MTY) Puerto Vallarta (PVR) San Jose del Cabo (SJD)
  13. That’s one way to get 100% of his money instead of 50%.
  14. We toured CU before Deion was hired and when we walked by the stadium, the guide said nobody goes to games.
  15. I’m ready for Martinelli to be a backup. He’s never progressed and continues to dribble with his head down missing opportunities. For every moment of brilliance, there’s 20 missed chances.
  16. 16 YO Amir Thompson, Pflugerville Hendrickson, son of Marion Jones and Obadele Thompson supposedly just committed. He never ran track until this spring and ran a 10.28 100m.
  17. After that speech, Taylor’s panties are too wet to perform.
  18. If he doesn't walk out to this, I am disappoint.
  19. I would like to see an HBO or Apple series with the premise that an alien sample is retrieved and taken to that mining planet. That was a world we need more time in and you could definitely build an awesome show of trying to contain the threat with a huge population of potential hosts. Unfortunately, Disney owns the franchise and I would bet a lot of the worst fan service was their execs forcing it on the director.
  20. Those last three are gonna be strong. Mayor Pete is gonna drop 15 minutes of straight snarky truths on the GQP, Bill it gonna get every pair of panties in that arena wet, and Walz is gonna burn it all down. Should be good. Cheadle giving the uncomfortable side eye in the camera's direction was just perfect.
