re: Final Bill dispute with a Contractor (Plumber)
Posted by MikeAV8s on 8/11/26 at 6:34 pm to Skippy1013
There are two opposing thoughts. He quoted 6200 and you agreed to 2000 additional with no other conversation. You certainly have a legit concern. Counter to that is, did he genuinely perform the additional work and was it necessary. I personally would write the check for the full boat and never call the guy again. In the future, be clear with any trades that you will only pay based on written agreement.

They can’t imagine riding a motorcycle without a helmet
I personally don’t care for laws like this. You want to die, have at it. I agree with the other poster that says you should have to pay for it though. In Florida yesterday, I see a dad on his Harley with his du-rag helmet. Had what I assume was his daughter on the back in a full face helmet. And I thought, makes perfect sense, you get to be “free” and you are “taking care” of your daughter. No, you’re a selfish a-hole what doesn’t give a shite if your daughter is fatherless. I still believe you should have the right to ride without a helmet though.
There is some audio out there where she declared an emergency and was explaining to ATC what was happening. Strong oil smell, smoke in the cockpit and then the engine failed. If you pay attention in the video, the prop isn’t turning. She didn’t risk trying to pull up and go over the sign, which in my opinion was the correct decision. That young lady was cool as a cucumber on the radio, told them she couldn’t make it back and was lined up with I10. Hoover nor Steeeve could have handled that situation better. I’d fly with her anytime.

Keep looking. I work for a Ford dealer group. Between two of our stores we have 196 of them. They start at 26k but only a couple at that price. Lots of them around 29-30k. It’s like anything else, you won’t get an XLT at that price, but you should be able to find a base model.
re: I actually really like Jon Sumrall a lot BUT

Agreed, he was actually who I wanted first choice. I’m happy with who we got though. I think Sumrall does well at Florida.
re: Do you kill coyotes?

My daughter in law was walking her little floof dog on a leash in their apartment complex in San Diego. Damn coyote jumped out of the bushes and snatched the floof dog and ran off. Fork a coyote. Kill em all.

3-star leaving Auburn for greener pastures
I’ll agree that these kind of threads are dumb, but that ain’t why he’s leaving. The WR room at Auburn is pretty deep, can’t blame a kid for trying go get playing time somewhere else.

The best player that the vast majority have never heard of. Audley Freed. If you’ve never heard of him, go give a listen to the album Brother by Cry of Love.

Tell us your thoughts on social security
My thoughts are, I will get back a small percentage to what I’ve paid in if you factored in just modest market gains. Instead, take a look at what that pool is being used for. Yes the population is aging, yes, it’s going to come to a head. The younger generations think that they are the only ones that inherited generational problems. These types of arguments don’t trigger me, I just chuckle as I watch those who get it lap those that incessantly complain.

I’m a boomer or Gen X according to which chart you look at. There is a lot of wailing and gnashing of teeth both ways so far here. Just my opinion, but I think it’s probably not very different from generation to generation. It’s just that today there a lot more avenues to vent it. So much of this current generation’s complaining is just patently false. I see quite successful young people everywhere. In my family, all of my kids are doing great. Home owners, professionals, happy and they don’t complain, they work. I have 3 nephews who are in the trades, they own homes, have kids and run their own businesses and don’t complain. The common denominator is they all work hard and take personal responsibility. I don’t get angry when I see posts like this, I feel sorry for you, but not because you don’t have the opportunities, but because you believe the lie.

I agree. The police will know. The data can be downloaded and know what the car was doing.
re: Idiot Auburn firing Gus malzaun
Posted by MikeAV8s on 6/19/26 at 4:23 pm to Sleepy_Tiger
The proof will be in the results, but this is the first coach since coach Jordan that doesn’t say just stupid shite. I loved Coach Dye, but even he was not exactly eloquent.

As a long suffering Auburn fan, it is refreshing the the new coach is doing well in recruiting, is very good with the press and appears he understands where the program is and that it’s unacceptable to stay there. I don’t remember the exact quote but the question was something like how many wins would he consider as a success and he said championships are the goal, nothing short of that. So I am cautiously optimistic.

I know you’re just trolling, but this is a super weak troll and makes you look stupid.
Prayers for your dad. One small anecdotal story. My dad was diagnosed with kidney cancer at 75. He didn’t want to do anything, it’s a slow cancer and he would have had a few good years. My siblings and mother hounded him to have surgery. He died 2 weeks later from complications. I tell you this only to say, honor whatever he wants to do. I am sorry.

Fantastic coach. Bama probably overachieved this year but I suspect they will be very good going forward. Swept Auburn, I’m not talking any smack.

I’m with ya man, that little shite arse program just beat the shite out of ole miss. How dare they let a team that beat Florida twice in their regional go to Omaha. It’s a travesty. What a puss.

This is not based on facts. As a matter fact, as a percentage, part 121 operators crash more often due to mechanical issues as opposed to part 91 and 135 which is heavily weighted to pilot error.
