re: Jobs that could make piles of money?

Everyone loves to use the example of successful tradesman who has 5 employees and 3 trucks on the road. They don't talk about the 10 other tradesmen who thought they could do the same, tried in vain for 5 years, then went back to working for the aforementioned guy
Yeah but that guy might have not been successful working for the man. Just because you are skilled at a trade doesn’t mean you will be successful as a businessman.
Elec, iE tech, mason, welder, mechanic all are making over 100k a year right now.

I ran bleu moon last year and had a DNF on the Q50 bogu chitta race this spring.
No I have not registered yet my work schedule as been kind of wonky so been just waiting to register.
I ran La marathon for a lead up to my attempt at the 50m but used a 10.5 -11 min pace as my target since that’s what I ran the La marathon at.
1-20 I was cruising but 21 I realized I screwed up
All those hills had me hurting, slowed to a point that my pace had me not finishing before 12hr so I pulled the plug on three loops.
I plan to run walk from get go and average a 13min pace for the first 30 miles and then if I feel good then speed up. I just turned 50 and my goal
Is a 50 miler and no matter how bad it looks I just want a finish!!

Forgot to get back around to this, I'm registered for the 50k,,, I saw last years 50k winner ran it in 6:22:00. I know it's not during winter or a marathon, but I feel like sub 6:00:00 is doable. Will likely get humbled on race day lol.
Yeah well talk about humbled, there was a guy who lapped me and I saw him running what looked like a 5k pace and so I just assumed he was running the 50k. When i crossed the 50k finish a few mins maybe 15-20mins later I see him coming in!!! He was the 50mi first place finish. Dude was rolling and that was supposed to be his build up for an upcoming 100mi.
Thanks for reminding me how slow I was lol
As for blowing up I tried to run my marathon pace 10.5 or so and just couldn’t get my heart rate down. Good luck hopefully I’m out there for the 50m

Yeah I hate LSU!! My statement that that their bats look good against some kids who are only playing because their parents can afford to pay 100k a year for them to be at Tulane is because I’m just negative!!!

Probably has nothing to do with the pitching they are seeing.

I'm genuinely interested in a working hound
Do you plan to work him? I have seen so many people buy a dog that’s intended to work and then not work them and get agravated when the (coonhound howls, cow dog chases everything and Terrier digs and on and on)
I have a choc lab and have used it for duck hunting and trailing deer but now he’s 12yr old now so he just lays around.

This is why I think I'll do something like Houston if I'm ever going to try a full. I've heard similar things about the Louisiana half/full where you're basically left out to dry once the course splits
I ran the full the last two years and while it’s not as packed with people cheering and the Jell-O shots and boom boxes and all that on the mid half of it there is no shortage of aid stations. It’s my only marathon experience but i highly recommend it and I plan to run it again next year.

Have you tried any of the Gu gels? The little applesauce pouches hit hard too. I've got an iron stomach and have eaten burritos at halfway points, but Gu gels, pop tarts and honey on toast are always my go tos for longer runs. Do you eat anything pre run?
Yeah I have had used gells some but had just kind of locked in on tailwind. I typically eat a tortilla with PB/honey 30mins before a long run and may try to pack some for while I’m running just to have an option.

9.23 @ 13:00 pace for right at 2hrs.
Was planning on maybe doing 3hr but experimenting with trying different fuel. Been using tailwind but tried nerd clusters/LMNT and a banana and paid for it lol (stomach and bonked hard) Wanted to have a back up in case I ran out of tail wind, back up plan will be have emergency tailwind.

Thanks for the tips, very helpful. Given boat size, I’ll pick my days
In addition to the red snapper suggestions don’t sleep on targeting mangroves.
Bring some cat food or make some boiled spaghetti noodle chum and work up current of the platform. 10ft 30# floro and a red hook in a shrimp or pogie with no weight tossed into the feeding frenzy. With med weight spinning rod mangroves are blast and they eat just as good as RS.

So if you know all of that I’m assuming you recovered the deer? So it’s not dead enough?
If Multiple follow up shots and tracking while finding minimal terminal damage is a persons thing then yeah it will kill them dead.

I would suggest not using subs on deer. My buddy has beck ammunition subs in 308 and it’s very underwhelming on killing deer and pigs. Of the several I have seen him shoot there is not a lot of damage or blood loss no exits, he has quit using them on deer.
It’s basically a 38 special.
The ammo is very accurate though and is almost movie quiet.

So to ME, at least, it doesn’t seem like Marcus was aiming at anyone in particular. He was just doing what the carousel worker said “spinning around shooting
Maybe he doesn’t mag dump but shoots somewhat controlled burst and he was shooting at a person running and didn’t lead them enough and strays were catching innocents!!
I don’t know what happened but that’s another way it can happen.

2 seconds until empty. A thug stoned off his arse wouldn't have that thought process.
And would not be in a weaver or isosceles stance but holding it one handed and possibly canted.
The video you show is someone trained pushing through the gun.

Thats not exactly how a switch works. You can let of the trigger and it stops firing
Agreed, but if he just held it then it just kept spraying as he try’s to regain sight picture on original target.
Just based on how the mall worker said it appeared that he was just turning and firing, I assume it was not controlled fire and just spray and pray.
For those that don’t know go to YouTube and just type Glock switch and watch how fast it all happens.

If he was just a bad shot, at least ONE person he was arguing with would have been wounded, right?
I’m just assuming based on the limited information I have seen. But if he was using a Glock with a switch, once he touched off the first round the gun just starts firing and sprays the area around it. He aimed at the group he wanted to shoot missed them and then just proceeded to mag dump in the general direction. Anyone to the side and behind the intended target is then hit as the gun recoils and continues to fire.

This was ghetto animalistic trash, not terrorism
Agreed, but even talking with some parents last night it’s amazing how clueless people are on how fast and how many people can be shot with a mag dump.
The poor girl shot could have been 50-100ft behind the intend target.

Police said the gunfire was the result of a confrontation between two groups and not a random shooting. Within hours, authorities announced five suspects were in custody, including one arrested in Livingston Parish." Stop being intentionally obtuse. What is it that you think happened here?
I have seen multiple FB forensic/investigators imply that it’s a “mass” shooting, Implying that we are being lied to and somehow it’s tied into a more sinister terrorist act. These FB detectives are linking the arrest made by the Carolina cop an now a lock down at the Jewish synagogue as all related.
I’m to smart for that terrorist only use Ak-47s and bomb vest !!
My thoughts are your friend has never been around any wild animals of any size or even worked livestock that didn’t want to be worked.

Most of them are at work during those hours, and if not they typically try to avoid areas with large groups of gang members loitering.
