they suggested he could have denied them entrance and said he would never do that.


If he is wholesaling meat across state lines that means his facility is subject to Federal Inspection by the USDA. They can walk into his business at any time and inspect the health and cleanliness of his business , the health and safety of the workers and inspect all his records related to such things.
There's no way he's going to risk pissing those folks off. If they find violations they can shutdown his business and order all his inventory destroyed.

I have no idea if this applies to other federal agencies.
There’s only 3 things I don’t like about the beach:sand, saltwater and sun.

Double hijack: My dad used to play guitar with some of the International Submarine Band / Flying Burrito Brothers et al. above the Peavey’s Melody Music Co. in Meridian (incl Chris Ethridge and Paul Davis).


Triple hijack: He's buried in the Garden of Memories in Metry.

Let’s say he makes 400k and can put 70k into a solo 401k. If he opts to do it traditional, he’s only taxed on 330k income. Based on what Grok said, he would save 25k in taxes. Now if he took that 25k and invested it annually in a separate brokerage account, wouldn’t he be better off in the end vs doing an up front Roth?


You need to consider the taxes on the 401k withdrawals too. When RMDs hit the govt will get their share. I'd rather pay taxes on $70K today rather than $70k+40 years of growth.

The other girls on his team seem happy. They'd probably feel different if they were on the side losing to him.

The sending email server should be in the header. If it's a wonky server name or one with a non-us domain I'd consider it suspicious.

You can even google the server name and see if it's know for sending phish attempts.

There are many ways to program these depending on what firmware you load. As mentioned, you can use the arduino environment to create a binary file and flash it.

I use micropython frequently.

If you want ot see something really cool based on the esp32 see the

The TO and FROM fields of email can be spoofed. You need to look at the headers directly to see the source of the email.

The method to examine headers is depend on your client or you can dig through the logs if you have access to the server.

I've lived in the Knoxville area for 22 years. As a baseball fan it was great during the last days of Delmonico, Raleigh and Serrano. Attendance was so bad they'd give away free tickets if you bring a canned vegetable. A family of 4 cost 2 cans of corn and 2 green beans. They'd also offer $5 admission with a free drink and hot dog. You could drive up at the last minute. Park close and walk right in and sit wherever you wanted. Attendance was in the hundreds.

That all stopped with Vitello.

I have a hot take here. Send them all home and make them vote remotely using biometrics for authentication. Close down the Washington offices.
