That’s quite the accomplishment. Great job
I’m 53 and probably a couple years away unfortunately. Career change caused a late start. Like someone else mentioned I spend too much time obsessing over daily changes and being too frugal.

Congrats again and continued success

It’s great for cenla kids getting offers. That being said, ASH has a 2027 receiver, Alex Fontenot that really is great. 6 1” 190 runs a 4.5. Only problem ASH primarily runs the ball. For example, against Ruston 54 runs, only 8 passes.

re: Solid Watch Options Under $1K

Great options in this price range. Many brands are part of the Swatch Group. Along with Hamilton, there is Tissot, Mido, and Certina. Many seiko options and believe it or not Timex is making some nice watches, as well as Casio and Citizen.
If you look used check out Longines
I did go to Ace, several times. Very helpful.
Thanks for great feedback. I was leaning towards the Weber. Think you just pushed me over the hump. Now, I really do not have a need for the XL. Other than just in case.

Trying to decide between these two. Looking for opinions, thanks

The financial package at Ivy League and other top tier private schools is based on household income. So a kid may get in but graduate with six figures of debt.
We are in state, oldest currently at LSU as a presidents alumni scholarship winner. Sadly LSU only offers roughly 20 full paid academic scholarships per year for 7000 freshmen. He had plenty of choices out of state however he gets a hefty refund every semester. And if gradual school is considered it’s conventional wisdom to go the cheaper route for undergrad.
If you want go more micro brand look at Monta and Formex.
Above your price range a bit but could find used
Tough question, my son had similar plans. 35 on ACT, 2 perfect SAT subject tests. However he would have graduated with a sizable amount of student loans, so not exactly the question of if you could fund.
Also he plans on going to graduate school so why spend on undergrad. So he stayed in state, at LSU and fortune to win Presidents alumni scholarship.

That being said we all know LSU rivals some Ivy’s in wokeness
Can’t go wrong with Hamilton or Tissot
You can find great deals on jomashop
Simple answer is yes. My son is at LSU because he won the Presidents alumni scholarship which is full cost of attendance. Otherwise the top scholarship is 4K plus TOPS - basically covers half the cost.
If you’re looking OOS don’t expect much regardless of ACT etc. Of course there are exceptions and Private school costs are based on need. If your kids are going to graduate school then it really makes sense to stay in state, take advantage of TOPS and then spend the money on grad school. Hope this helps.

Hanks belts are great

re: Ford Rangers - are they worth a darn?

Posted by Ladadof3 on 1/13/22 at 11:46 am to
I certainly hope so. Just bought a 2021. The transmission in my old car went out, needed to find something fast.
Drove a 2019 Tacoma and 2022 Frontier. Liked the Ranger the most.
In the same boat this past weekend. Test drove the Tacoma, Frontier, and Ranger. Easy decision to get the Ranger.
Rush talked about this on several occasions. Specifically mentioned the download speeds.

This has been known for quite some time.
You’re on the right track. Going through the same with my kids. Plenty of fluids and keep temp down.
My 3 kids grew up boxers. They are known for how great they are with kids. Boxers are basically toddlers for life themselves, silly and goofy. But as someone mentioned they can have health problems. I’ve lost 2 way too early with cancer.
I currently have my 4th boxer and can’t imagine not getting another
