Joe Ferguson forever

But what version? Some 50's dreamland where everyone supposedly is blissful while scarfing down valium and burning up vibrators?

or you could just trust that the scientific expert consensus has your best interests at heart...cuz they do...it's way too enormous a community of disparate intellects to believe otherwise. And they also want to live long, happy lives.

scientific objectivity is not their strong suit.

They did. now perhaps they know better. but they're not real bright... I'm glad you mentioned that https://www.tipranks.com/stocks/dis/forecast

why anyone thinks this bozo is smart is a mystery https://www.politico.com/news/2023/08/06/desantis-conservative-populism-donors-00109958 DeSantis made a fatal error — his whole anti-Disney, anti-corporate stance is so foolish,” said Kathy Wylde, president and CEO of the Partnership for NYC — a trade organization that represents Wall Street executives. “I know a donor to him who sat him down, and told him what a mistake this was early on, and he didn’t care.” “He’s totally alienated the business community; congratulations on that,” Wylde added, blaming that on “his irrational, anti-corporate stance and his extreme policies on gender and race that put public companies who would donate to him in an impossible situation with their employees and their customers.”

You fools try so hard. And fail so badly.

I wonder if someone has been checking his blood pressure. he's at risk of stroking out. Fat, deranged and livid is not as good combo.

Scumbag grifter. Sold his soul and part of America's https://dnyuz.com/2023/08/05/clarence-thomass-267230-r-v-and-the-friend-who-financed-it/

Not following. did I post something you feel is untrue? Bruce is a proud UVA dude.

btw, in reference to the actual thread; my buddy says he's on track for his best year in over a decade. Recovery is unequal and staggered. It's just the way it is...somethings will never change

I hope Billstime doesn't mind a temp thread diversion but...how much more did your houses come in than quoted. I hear 150% is expected. ridiculous and that's from the contractors quote. I hope businesses get better service than single home builders.

Yeah, probably skip that one. My wife is still pissed we didn't build it.

Yeah, we picked the guy because he designed an amazing renovation for our church. Very artistic and clever. But I guess not practical. I have a golf buddy who runs a building supply store in town. He came to a meeting late in the process and said no way anyone can do this for your budget. Should have insisted on the !10% thing but things worked out. This place was way less to buy and renovate without an architect. made a little on the land. otherwise I'd still prob be working. I honestly think the architect just thought "they'll just do it to have this amazing place". I don't think that's ethical and he should have gotten to know me better before designing.

It occurs to me that I admitted my mistake immediately on realization. I could have argued it effectively knowing I was wrong. Sound familiar?

I pay plenty of taxes. If they legislate green I'll gladly follow. Until then, I can rationalize my not jumping in as incentivizing energy scientists to do better. I'm not sure the oil companies are amped up enough for it.

i fully agree with all pro except that I would accept "near" equal in cost and reliability. Do you think All pro is a limousine lib? I've never got to ask a 2nd architecture opinion. We had a modern home (glass, steel, wood beams nano wall, pool - you get the picture) designed and told the architect the budget. He designed an amazing thing that was quoted at twice the budget by 2 contractors (we were also going to do geothermal). Is there an ethics code in architecture that should kick in? of course we didn't build it and then bought and fully renovated a cape cod (believe it or not it is very modern inside and mountain lodge like outside like). so we ate the architect fees.

Lately, I've been staying home a lot. We also don't drive all that much other than a few trips a year. Pretty much everything we need is within 5 miles. Priced solar but still doesn't pay for itself over my life expectancy. Will replace my cars with electric when they die. So why are you complaining that liberals are pushing green down everyone's throat. We're not. We just want to move at a reasonable rate in that direction.

not even going to look that up. it will make my head ache.

It's like you're setting me up... In Mathematics, a differential equation is an equation with one or more derivatives of a function. The derivative of the function is given by dy/dx. In other words, it is defined as the equation that contains derivatives of one or more dependent variables with respect to one or more independent variables. aren't you in the pacific time zone, somewhere exotic?

Do I want my face to melt and to drive on bubbling asphalt in May? Nope.

He's desperate and miserable. Already in mental prison I'm hoping for a guillotine..then wooden stakes thru the heart

did I mention threading the needle?
