  1. Well at least she can't claim they were poor, she obviously had a pot to piss in.
  2. Free neon vest included to the first 3 applicants!
  3. Clearly he is tuned into world events, yet somehow this gem passed him by
  4. Makes better potato salad than a New Jersey resident
  5. And award them to Buffalo for not saying anything about Revis
  6. His video actually makes him look worse. In this day and age of media access, this kid might as well drop out of school and take a job at the deli counter. No company doing a google search would bother to hire the kid. He looks like he is probably "Date challenged" and this will put him behind the knuckle dragging cyclops in the dating hierarchy.
  7. Not that I am a fan of Southwest, but they gave the kid several opportunities to get it right. I give the gate agent credit for being polite and giving him three options, the kid was being an ass hat.
  8. On April 15......
  9. Depends on who you plan on killing..... I quit in August, I will have one once ina while (maybe once a month) but I crave every day.
  10. You have to love the writing on this one Caught in the act
  11. We compared the 2013 Ford Escape and the 2014 Honda CRV, lots of features on the Escape, but in the end the CRV won out with 5 years in a row as best small SUV . Picked it up with 2300 miles on it for a steep discount. Love it and love the mileage compared to my F 150, also great in snow.
  12. I assume my wife's 403Bs and my former 401ks cannot be folded into the same IRA? So at best I would fold the 5 orphan accounts to 2, one in each of our names?
  13. A few years ago at a Pinto tailgate I remember Kenny surveying the Sunday junkyard with the assorted misfits and debauchery stretched out before them and proclaiming to one of his kids "Someday, this will all be yours" ( and I think he was being serious)
  14. Thats the problem, a financial planner wants all of them consolidated in one account, but then he offers only a limited amount of choices. Principal, Merrill Lynch, Morgan Stanley, Fidelity and Transamerica are the ones, but they only offer the funds selection that give them the best incentives. I keep them separate, but their horizon/targets are all over the place. But at least with those five firms, I have multiple funds to choose from. As for picking stocks, I am horrible, but once in a while you hit and it is rewarding. Lately I am looking at dividend returns, once a payment comes in, I will but a few shares of something I already have or have been looking at.
  15. I have been contributing to my 401K since the early 80's, we are now over 50 years old and max out every year with the extra 5K per year. Because my wife and I have been at different jobs, we have five what I call "Abandoned" 401Ks which have no new cash going into them, but are part of our nest egg. One of my wifes' former employers deprecated their pension plan and she received a lump sum which we rolled over into one of these "abandoned" 401k's.( I was hoping that pension would have stayed since it would have been around 1200 per month for her.) My biggest failure is that between the 5 abandoned and our two current 401Ks, each one was set up with a strategy that made sense at the time it was opened, but neither one is appropriate for our current goals. I wish there was a way to consolidate them without losing the diversity that they offer across multiple firms. I have also have a modest trading account that I use for trying out different stocks that get my interest. I have Jetblue since we like the company, Ford, since I believe in the product (and they offer a dividend), GE, INTC and CSCO for the dividends. Some other stocks that I go in and out with in this account are things like TASR since they came up with a great body camera solution in the wake of the Ferguson mess, as well as some small biotech stocks that show promise and tech stocks.
  16. Letting squatters use my shower makes me happy
  17. This was already determined years ago
  18. Patriot* fans cheering
  19. But is that upper right while looking in the mirror? That would mean it is upper left no?
  20. I think Nick in England is now Nick in Ontario since he moved last season. Gunner Bill is now a great source for info.
  21. Soft / Spring skiing is great for beginners as long as the cover doesn't turn to slush. If the mountain is groomed properly, it can be a great day or two of skiing. If the groomers are not on top of it, it can be a nightmare. As I recall HV had a pretty good crew and are good at making the snow last and with a good base, you could be in for a treat. The soft conditions allow the skier to translate the body movement easier to the ski and therefore the surface of the snow. Since you are not engaged in the delicate balance of "just the right edge pressure" required to carve on a hard surface, your turns will come a bit easier. The edge of the ski only needs to begin the turn before it starts the carving motion, as long as you follow through on your turn initiation, you will be fine. Remember anything you learned on hard surface still apples in the soft stuff, its just the amount of work and edge pressure will fluctuate with the softer conditions. Have a blast!
  22. I think you may be correct, I also think this crew was the same that inhabited the settlement in Virginia where Noah grew up
  23. I hope that is the plan, a quick signing of Hughes would take the sting away from losing Alonzo.
