    What are you watching now?

    As a concert it would have been better if he just sat on his thrown and didn’t sing and just let the other bands play. In hindsight, dying two weeks later, it’s great that he had the chance to do it one more time.

    Tariffs...what to make of them.

    You mean Obama faked the Russian interference hoax and must be prosecuted.

    The DIY thread - DIYourself

    So two weeks after replacing the Attic thermostat/humidistat the 20 year old motor started squealing and stopped spinning yesterday. Grabbed a replacement from Lowes (which had horrible reviews, but was available.) Spent two hours installing it due to various issues then flipped the breaker in...

    Tariffs...what to make of them.

    After following him over to the club in his Macan GTS I made sure to ask him in front of my wife if I can afford one of those. Her eyes couldn't roll further back in her head when he said "no problem."

    He'll do anything to change the subject. https://www.cnn.com/2025/07/22/politics/republicans-melania-trump-kennedy-center Almost ordered the Melania Buffalo Chicken Wrap at Bedminster today, but wasn't really in the mood for chicken tenders. Our CFA is a big trump guy. Tariffs seem to be...

    Tariffs...what to make of them.

    Fake news. It's a well known fact that almost everything trump says he has previously stated the exact opposite at some point in time. Not sure why but MAGA supporters seem to love this.

    How the hell are we supposed to retire?

    Did you try Boldin or MaxiFi or any other type of software? Trying to get a headstart before our next meeting with the CFA.

    How the hell are we supposed to retire?

    Anyone have a recommendation for a good retirement calculator? Trying to figure out how our withdrawal's will change once my SS, then wife's SS, then RMD's kick in if I live that long. Still pushing my wife to try and pull the plug next year. Also, anyone using the Marketplace for health...

    Bad Driving

    Today's road ride. Had a 911 do what is typically a Tesla move around here. First, sit on my wheel at 18mph for way too long. Then swing waaay too wide left to pass leading to overcorrecting and passing in front of me onto somebody's lawn. 911 drove one house length with both right wheels on...

    Car-spotting thread

    Times change. When my son was 16 he said "I know you guys are going to buy me a car since you both hate driving me everywhere."

    Car-spotting thread

    My father was a car guy in his previous life. I don't think he realized how much and how quick I could destroy that car. I worked as a Draftsman at his firm starting when I was 12 or 13. I had the money, but for some reason he thought this would be cheaper.

    Tell me where you rode today...

    Apparently I rode where it's a good place to hide from work. He sat there with the engine running for at least the 2 hours I rode.

    Car-spotting thread

    Long story of how and why, but when I was 16 my father ended up with a 79 Monte Carlo SS that looked like a regular MC and he didn't want me to buy my own car yet, so... I used it to race all my friends and usually won. Neutral drops front of the HS were particularly fun. I drove it for 9...

    Bike industry failing?

    The problem is the industry just keeps trying to find the next best thing to sell to the existing customer base over and over. There needs to be a way to draw in new people in so the market grows. Obviously this has been tough to do.

    Bike industry failing?

    Yeah. The news peeps say overall spending is down because people are just too uncertain as to what is going to happen.

    The Joy of Mountain Biking

    Not to poop on your poem, but... We were in Santa Fe at a farmer's market recently and a guy had a typewriter set up with a sign "Poems-Set your own price." My nephew goes and asks for a poem about being in the Marines, as he currently is. The guy tells him to come back in 15. As we walk away...
