It’s easy. If a Trump invests in it, then you invest it in it. It’s insider trading without the repercussions..

Trump is the epitome of Trump first. To the extent there’s an overlap, that’s completely incidental.

it is a digital signal now so any advertised antenna is going to work for over the air channels. For streaming a hotspot may work, as the cellular signal around campus has worked very well on AT&T. I've heard there was an additional cell tower added recently, not sure if true but something has improved on campus.


FYI, Verizon was hot garbage for Clemson tailgate after about 1pm.
Get an amplified one and he should be good…unless he wants ESPN, then Starlink

This is the one I used for the Clemson game in lieu of reactivating my starlink (since no ESPN games), and it worked well: LINK

I’m seeing that Costco pulled all Callaway products from their stores and website now.

Possible. Also likely he’d prefer federal prison over Sing Sing. He’s going to fight the state charges, alleging double-jeopardy.

We started going about once a year when our kids were that age. Here's a few thoughts:

-Being walking distance (or on the monorail line) with young kids is soooo nice, if you can afford it. If you're looking for value resorts, Pop Century is underrated and has a great food court.

- Build your trip around Magic Kingdom and Hollywood Studios for kids that age. The others are great too, but probably a step down compared to MK and HS for young kids (unless you have a girl that's obsessed with Frozen, which is at Epcot).

- Use Rider Swap when your youngest is too small to ride something. Your oldest will get to ride twice, and the second adult rider gets to use the lightning lane with the child.

- Figure out the lightning lane system and book them in advance (I think a week before you go).

- Don't discount resort days. The resorts are fun, with pools, etc. Parks two days in a row can really wear on the kids.

St Andrews hail today

Second time in a week they’ve had a serious hailstorm. Watched this one from Jigger Inn. Playing Old Course tomorrow…so hopefully no hail

Here’s pics of Old Course 17 and 18 right after the storm:

I love the President but he has fricked this war up.


This is an understatement.

The US having zero plan (much less an effective one) for keep the strait open is the most embarrassing foreign involvement this country has had since the tet offensive.

High school students have known for 20 years that lithe Iranian regime would respond to an existential threat by closing the strait. Yet this administration launches a desaturation strike, and then apparently had zero plan for Iran closing the strait.

It’s fricking stunning. And dangerous - because it suggests that we’ve got idiots in charge.

Right - courses and range are completely closed on Mondays.

Worth a crap in the BR area? Performance? Have to have separate streaming device (fire sick, etc) for it to work efficiently?

Bailing on YTTV. Thx!


I'm doing the free trial bc of the YTTV/ESPN mess - haven't used it a lot, but the image quality seems better to me

Callaway Edge set from Costco. Amazing value. Only like $500 bucks for full set of clubs - you’ll just need a bag.

Looks like he does lessons indoors with the simulator / launch monitor setup. Is that kind of setup good for beginner lessons vs hitting outside on grass? Or are lessons utilizing that kind of tech better suited for an experienced player that's trying to fine tune things?


Pretty sure the pros there use rooms with one side open where you hit onto the range. They have trackman setup with tvs so you can see replays with the pros’ diagrams/notes. It’s a great setup, especially if it’s raining or windy.

I had good results from the Rustoleum repair kit ( LINK), but mine was really a small chip rather than a "gouge"
Callaway Edge from Costco or callawaypreowned.com (they sell new sets of Edge as “used - excellent condition)

This is links golf. Weather is erratic and you’re truly at the mercy of it. Wind could blow 30, rain could be there all day, rain could be off and on all day, it could rain and the wind blow 20-30, or the weather could be perfect.


This. I've been out to Portrush several times over the years. When I played there a month ago, it was the first time ever that it didn't rain and the wind wasn't a big factor. The weather is rarely "good" in that area for long - I was shocked they had 2 "good" days in a row over the weekend.

Isn't Trump giving Teachers *Not administrators a raise with the money they took away from the Dept. of Education? Pretty sure he said he was going to be sending the money to the States.


Pretty much this. Abolishing the Department of Education became a rally cry for many - but a primary objective of the Dept of Education was oversight of federal education money….so who is overseeing the money now and how is that better than the system that existed before? What happened to block grants to the states?
