Hey BC!  That's what I like about you... you laugh at my Dad Jokes.

 

Some people do what's called a Dry January, where they drink no alcohol. I did a dry January and February where I visited no forums.  Just a reset.

I tot get it! I once got a 30 day suspension and self imposed an additional 3 months. Ahhhh

Man, this is really challenging my generally leftist ideals and my ... man, I love spending $2k on dinner for my gal intuitions. 

 

 

A stupid amount of money on dinner reminded me of a post by my man DMM (who coincidentally is back!) when I paid ~$300 for the prime rib I purchased to cook for Christmas dinner. I believe it went something like, “all that money just to deposit it in the toilet 💩 🚽2 days later”.  My initial reaction was ‘that’s disgusting’. And I’m sorry I was reminded of it! 🤦🏼‍♂️

I’d personally love to see some harsh regulation on private equity investment in general

Me too. The housing market is warped because of it, small business ownership and the perks of succeeding there have been under it's attack too. Politics, social & economic policy is warped by it. Our downfall is accepting that someone is worth a billion means their IQ is a billion. Fact, their smarts are not much more worthy than most. But  Golden Rule is, the gold rules.

Mr. Scape...  as a stock market guy I'd say if you got $301 of enjoyment out of that steak then you are ahead of the game. Butt with you around I'll be investing in American Standard.

Watching 60 Minutes last night. Talking about the race to send ppl back to the moon between Musk (Space X) and Bezos (Blue Orgin). Not that my opinion matters, nor will I lose any sleep over it, but NASA teaming with two private citizens to get all this done just doesn’t feel right to me.

Remember when you were a kid and you tried self checkout, and the store would call the police?

Raises a ton of questions. No ?   Why is the simplest one. But why leads to 127 seperate predicates on the same topic.  It’s puzzling.  Leads  one to wander. And wonder.

Couple that with Musk essentially owning space (and therefore much more) with his network of satellites 🛰️ Makes one wonder indeed.

To channel aen’s ‘money is nothing and I make it easily’ take. Don’t offend me. American Standard is a rental properties brand.

Okay, okay.  I've moved my investment over to Kohler.  Maybe, as a dividend, I can swing a free round and lodging at Whistling Straits...

Given what he’s done with his satellite network, that’s a pretty scary scenario.

remember when cheeseburgers were 17 cents, fries and drinks were 15 cents? 50 cent lunch…

 

I’ll guess that was a $17 lunch + tax and tip for a total of $21.50. am I close?

 

no big deal. @aenemated is flush now and will cover it for ya. he’ll buy the place out and turn it into a live music place.

 

call it “live burger room.” cover charge is $90, but you get a burger. two drink minimum. scantily clad servers dance in front of the stage twice per night.

 

signature feature is you select a tattoo from the menu and it’s burned into the melted cheese.

i burned in the kanji for “happiness.”

Yeah, there's something off with NASA. 

I've heard a lot of original video, photos and data was lost because they went cheap and re-used the tape/disk space. One of the most monumental human achievements and they erased a good portion it to save  a few bucks. WTF.

They’re not doing well. Kohler closed their food storage division in Duncan SC I believe.   I’d pass and go to back to commercial grade American  standard - something that can still carry the load this group puts out 🤣. ( including myself).

Close was $20 with tip. Decent diner burger 🍔, nothing to write home about. 
 

I remember getting like a slice or pizza and a can of RC for like 50 cents in middle school!
