And in court you have to articulate the "feeling" or " intuition" that proceeded the actions taken when you first got a visual of whatever you reacted to. The only difference now and when I started is an increased falsehood that all authority is bad. A few simple questions and a good demeanor usuall...
Glad to see they're still good on the river. They took over and remodeled two Holiday Inn properties there that I used years ago. Hopefully we'll be there soon. Gotta get out of the U.P. first though. Wisconsin Dells tomorrow working our way to the tropical depression.......
This might sound silly but I look at Drury Inn like Chik Fil A. Good family run operation that pays attention to the right things and provides solid service. I wish they were in more locations but they do their niche well....

They have two properties on the river, we've stayed at both. We enjoyed them immensely. Hope they're still on their game for your trip....

Best moderate motel - Drury Inn

Posted by done dancing on 7/5/19 at 7:37 pm
Early evening happy hour and snacks, popcorn and soda until 10pm and A GOOD hot breakfast. Large, clean rooms (with suites) with great beds. Great prices. Always our preferred stop....
Just drove from New Mexico across Texas and home to southeast Louisiana on all backroads. Took me back to when I was a kid in the 60's. Been wanting to do it and the opportunity presented itself. Saw great sights and had great food. ...

Fwiw, I put a Ruger LCP in my pants pocket and it doesn't leave an inprint. And it's cheap and accurate. To your question, the M&P 380 is a mid tier backup....
Used to have a 30" single blade rear engine that gave me a great cut. Dumbasss me then got a 42" zero turn. Mistake, especially since I like sipping a beer on a hot day cutting grass. Weed eating and edging is just more time to sip beer. But I ubderstand.........
I second this. If this is an educated rift on tariffs he needs to seriously rethink his schooling based on his posts. Nevermind, he's a political hack with an agenda. ...

In Albuquerque right now, great place. So was Vernon, TX on the way here-population 11,000. Point is there are a lots of great places and Houma is to some people who were born and live there, like me. Find your place but don't trash others for being there....

Animal Kingdom, Yak and Yeti? Good food and bar. Drink stand nearby had a couple of good beers also. ...

Everybody in the fam gets "their" day during vacation. Dad's day has craft beers which Disney does pretty well (Hollywood Studios tap room). Kids know what parents are doing so responsibility is key. I too enjoy Disney. I don't think OP is as bad as he first came off. ...
If Hughes saves a run by defense, picks up a a walk or sac fly as he has done often lately, then he's a starter considering the way the rest of the lineup has been hitting since the sec tourney....

Went to a "free" meal against my better judgement put on by the rep. Initial pitch/whiteboard info was dead on with my research. Follow uo meeting ended up as a whiteboard rehash of the dinner with no specifics on the actual product I would be buying. When I started asking question, reps demeanor ch...

I started the conversation and studied heavily not to go down the proverbial rabbit hole. Glad I did obviously. I also learned that I share many good traits with people who responded with respect to investing. Thanks again all for the input. I'm gonna put this particular idea to bed for now....

Aint that the truth. Wrong board but, "you have to pass the bill to find out what's in it" analogy. Maybe they used to work in congress??...

Everything on a whiteboard. No written literature. Tony Robbins type presentation. Realistically they set up meetings and plan to close a certain percentage. It went as I expected. I just have to weed out the opportunist but I have time....

Presentstion was good, based on S&P500. It hit all the right numbers in length, interest and caps. That's when it got sticky. No specifics on what companies until I was ready to commit. Like I said, premise was fine but not the sellers. I'm sure my OCD put them off lol....
