I’d have to make it to 99 so probably a no.
I make it every summer for the kids. Unfortunately it’s more expensive to make than to buy.
I went to Toronto several years ago and the streets were clean enough to eat off of. Everyplace we went into was spotless. It amazing how quickly bad policy can ruin a city.
In my home building days, I liked the 2nd phone when customers had direct access to me via that number & work email was only on that phone. I turned it off at 3:30 daily and weekends.

I would have been drafted.

Your lottery number for the year you were drafted was 57. It was assigned on Monday, December 1, 1969. You were drafted in the first draft lottery, in 1970.
I got to choose a $300 suitcase or a $300 visa gift card for 5 years.

I think they up this to $500 at 10, I’ll find out next month.

At 15 you get a Rolex.
Just like every other media personality that got fired or “quit”, no one will care or even wonder what happened to them.
Got the job offer and accepted in March before I graduated in May.

I went to work in another state the Monday after my Saturday graduation.
Damn. We met Neuty in Pigeon Forge this past Thanksgiving.
Finance and if he could double major that would be a huge leg up. It also gives him options within construction/development.

If he could pull off an MBA that would be icing on the cake.
Tundra and it’s more American than the American manufacturers.

I try to sleep as much as possible. My urologist prescribed me Phenergan which helps with the sleep along with tramadol and flomax.

I also use the hot tub or a warm bath to soak in.

No and in Toyota fashion they replaced the engine on ALL the ones that had issues, no cost effective work around like other manufacturers.
I just went through this with my 2018 Sierra. While assessing the transmission they also found a cracked motor mount and a leaking water pump.

I just put a new radiator on it a year ago too. I decided to not dump more $ into it and replaced it with a Tundra.

I live in Texas and early voting starts 17 days before Election Day and polling places are open in the weekend, I can’t for the life of me figure out why people in this state wait until Election Day to vote.
