Have yet to eat there, but I drove by the other day and the aesthetic of the first floor looks like the bar at a 1990s Holiday Inn. I looked at the prices and they are charging $28 for spaghetti and meatballs. Their waiters wear Green Polos like so many chains. Something just doesn’t quite fit to me. Though, if I hear enough good things about the food, I may give it a try.



The ambience is definitely off putting. Not a comfortable space. Ended up going for dinner. Cocktails were extremely sweet and not balanced. Fried okra and seafood arancini were decent. Since the board said the chef worked at Ruth's I got the 8oz filet. Not a good steak at all. It was way over seasoned. Too much salt and onion/garlic powder. Tasted like it was seasoned with french onion soup dry mix. The cook on it was good though. The service was very slow and they weren't that busy. Will try it again in a few months. But the steak was not even close to 527 or Cafe Lynn

Good to hear reviews of food. Was going to wait a few months before going.
There is actually a very famous jazz fusion band from the 70s with the name Weather Report.
The screws and washers need to be replaced every 10-20 yrs. The roof itself should last a very long time
its only $4700 in the rollover. $1440 in about 16 years ago and the rest interest gained. For the yearly contribution limit I assume the whole $4700 counts to the $7500?
Thanks. That was becoming my understanding of the situation. Yes top marginal bracket. I only have a small amount in a Rollover IRA but from what I am reading that isn't considered a Traditional IRA for purpose of conversion to a Roth. Thanks for the advice
I wish I understood this a little more. I am a reasonably bright individual but the world of finance is a foreign language to me. I was a late starter to beginning retirement contributions due to putting myself through school with a young family. I have been able to max out both a 401k and 457b now for 8 years. Began looking at supplemental additional funds for investment and am reading more about the topic here. Ultimately I may just need to hire a finance person to give me advice.
Literally wood chips, not figuratively, I guess? Because figurative wood chips wouldn't make sense.
I have been collecting vinyl for 15-20 years. The majority of what I collect are 50-70s jazz, rock, other stuff. I try to get first pressings in decent shape. I generally do not buy albums recorded digitally and then pressed to vinyl
Clancy's. dont get the love for this place
From Northern Ireland but I see the Ireland flag sticker on his helmet? love the guy and story

We spent 6 nights at Atelier in Playa Mujeres. Amazing place. food and drinks were great.
The Last Word is a great cocktail

3/4 oz everything. Gin, maraschino liqueur, green chartreuse, fresh lime juice. shaken, serve up, garnish with a brandied cherry

So you mean the threat to SELA has lessened?
He really is terrible. He is just a contrarian, shite stirring asshoe who thinks he is smarter than and above everyone.
