YOURADHERE

Never rented but just wanted to say minivan is the way to go, we just bought an Odyssey and there may be no better vehicle for traveling than a minivan. Stick one, or both, car seats in the 3rd row, captains chairs for the 2nd row, plenty room for luggage even with the 3rd row up, better mileage than a big SUV too.

AT&T fiber, I think it's $90/month. No complaints or rarely any issues. All the people in my neighborhood with Cox constantly have issues/outages.

We've also got Starlink at the camp and it too has been flawless. If you're in an area with little/no options Starlink is the way to go.

I read through this whole thread to see if anyone from the OT was at my wedding :lol:

After my wife and I left we had a pretty big fight break out.

For my brother's wedding one of the groomsman, who was a fairly close friend of his, drank too much before and started to puke on the alter, caught it in his hand, and slipped out the side, thankfully very few people noticed. He walked right out the door and was never seen or heard from again. No apologies, no contact, nothing. I held onto his bag of clothes/shoes/airpods/etc for about 2 months before throwing it all away. Never responded to text, phone calls, etc from any of us. To this day no one in the wedding party has seen or heard from him, that's been close to 3 years ago.

I know a few people who bought the MEAT! 500w grinder and have been quite happy, those run around $150ish or so. I used to use my Kitchenaid mixer/grinder to grind up briskets when they went on sale but it was a slow process.

I started processing my own venison and making sausage so I bought a Meat! 1hp with the foot pedal during their Black Friday sale and have been quite impressed with it. Something like that is definitely overkill for just a few pounds though.

Dear Lord Baby Jesus, I pray that my FIL has discovered TD without my knowledge. Amen. :lol: :lol:

We've got a sheepadoodle, she impresses me with how smart she can be. Picked up all the usual stuff pretty quick(sit, shake, laydown, stay, come, etc), rings a bell on the door when she wants to go outside, rings the doorstopper on the patio when she's ready to come in, figured out how to climb the ladder so she can get into the kids playhouse to hang out with them, for a while I was picking up her poop and tossing it in a little unused area on the side of the house for the rain to wash away and she now uses that as her designated pooping area. We have a few of those dog buttons for her at my office and she picked them up pretty quick for "outside" and "treat". We had to confiscate the "treat" button, she kept pressing it repeatedly, then would get an attitude when you wouldn't give her one.

Years back we had an Australian Shepard who HATED FedEx and UPS drivers. It was funny to watch him just hop up and start growling because he'd heard the truck turn down our street a half mile away.

I appreciate you carrying on this fight. We had HuluLive, now DirectTV streaming, both of which have ESPN. I already piss and moan about the prices of those and refuse to add another subscription service just for F1, of which with 2 little kids has dwindled my time to sit and watch a race anyway. I agree with you, I suspect viewership through Apple has fell off, possibly quite significantly. I keep up here, I watch the highlights, etc, and I don't really feel like I've missed a whole bunch.

I doubt they're here for pogey boats but the enemy of my enemy is my friend so I'll cheer for them if so.

Get something with a line counter. It makes it much much easier.

And if not a line counter spool it with the metered Depth Hunter braid, makes it so much easier to be able to know how deep you are.
