Is the OT still out on Bud Light?


It's funny because it's trash.

Natural Light was in the bars when Bud Light came out.

No one would drink it.

They pulled Natural out and made it a second tier beer and cranked up the marketing.

It was always trash.

More like a truck of Tabasco sauce.

Early baseball days coaches were players too.

Hence the uniform.

I think it's great.

We had an old man years ago coaching against me in rec and he wore the same uniform as the kids. Cleats and all. He was amazing and great for the community and really knew baseball.

Every year I think about doing it to as I still coach and I think I'd just come out looking stupid.

He looked like a baseball player.

I'd end up looking like a try hard. I bet most people wouldn't get it. I love baseball.
Used to the hustler was the cheapest you could get with a welded deck and a kawasaki engine.

Lower center of gravity since you said you are on a slope. At least committed to many back when I was looking years ago.

Yep, as soon as you issue laptops or chromebooks, your scores go down. And despite the fact that research shows students learn best from textbooks, we continue to get away from them.


After running The local.scbool board budget through GROK and asking questions I had it extrapolate the cost of education with laptops and that for the current student and compare to traditional textbooks adjusted for inflation and it calculated we are spending anywhere from 5 to 22 times more per student compared to traditional texts.

I couldn't narrow it further since the budget was soooo broad on some categories you had to ask the school system for a more direct breakdown of all these generic categories

The Teacher's Retirement system is about $7 billion in debt (liabilities in excess of funding). The two billion from the liquidated funds would be ADDED to the retirement system. The retirement system is NOT being raided. It actually adds to the sustainability of the retirement system.


I didn't saybthey were raiding the retirement fund.

What is said was they want to go after the funds mentioned and liquidate them with nothing to replace them. Those funds despite being small are locked up and there every year unless they are cashed out like they want for usage to throw money at a giant mismanaged pit.

They ALSO for years have been trying to go after the TRSL to borrow out of that fund for state usage and it would never get paid back.

Not once in my post was it stated they would be reducing the TRSL.

Removing a source of guaranteed funds for the education system with nothing to replace it is is shite. If these can be raided you can bet your arse next time they come after more.

They want to raid the fund and are dangling this raise as a carrot to get them to bite.

They've been trying to get their hands on the Retirement Fund for years.

Truth is we dont need this money for their raises.

We need to cut the wasteful spending.

I ran the CPSB budget from last year through GROK to analyze it and o boy what a rabbit hole of waste.

I couldn't even nail down exacts since the categories they post are so large its harder to dig through. You have to request a more detailed version from them.

The amount of Tech waste and subscription based fees is nauseating.

We've been arming the wrong people for years.

Their populations along with the Irish and French...

They are lambs to the slaughter.

The problem is they dont.

In the roof they blew down on the rear facing carseats.

In the pillar you will have to come up with a work around.

You can rig up something like this from noggle. Come from the 3rd row AC vent or the second row door pillar.


My 2012 was amazing.

They are all Hybrid now.

If they were still an all gas option I'd own one.

The problem we found was resale sucks and we keep vehicles so long when the come to sell it I'd have to replace the 7500 battery too.

Bought an Odessey. They now all have the 10 speed transmission.

I dont like the AC in the pillars and not overhead anymore but we deal with it.
