I'm leaving this afternoon for Spain. I won't come back for 3 weeks.

I need something that will hold an Iphone 16 Plus in a zippered pocket for bike riding. Will Maamgic do that? How big is the compression liner phone holder?


I have an iPhone 16 Pro Max with a Rokform case. It fits in the compression liner phone holder just fine. No zipper on it, but it's not necessary given the design. It's not going anywhere and it stays right on your thigh so it's not bouncing around in a pocket.

re: What brand of gym shorts do you wear?

I like the Maamgic ones off Amazon. Generally $25-$30 each. I love the built in compression liner that has a phone holder and 5" inseam. There are side pockets plus a back zippered pocket that I can put my license and credit card in. I'm 5'11" and 165 pounds, so anything longer looks dumb on me. I run, hit the gym, play beach volleyball and pickleball in them.

I used LA Wallet, they charged the $24 fee. Should've done express lane online instead. I didn't know I needed to shop around to avoid excessive fees. Now I know


I was going to use LA Wallet since I got the notification that my renewal was up. Started the process and saw that fee. Hopped on my laptop and did it there instead. I'm sure they are counting on people not noticing since they can conveniently do it in the palm of their hand.

re: Kettlebells

Just started on kettlebells myself. There's a set in my apartment's gym that I've been using, and now I've decided to buy my own.

I've got a pair of 25s, a pair of 50s, then a 30 and a 35. Will get some heavier ones, but not sure about going with pairs beyond 50.

Just a couple weeks of training with them has made a difference. I enjoy the workouts as well since they focus on a lot of full body stuff. I can see and feel the difference, but this is really my first experience with weights and strength training.

I'm on EGO system. Has performed extremely well with a mower, edger/weedeater and blower. I will probably expand to the interchangeable tool head system and get a hedge trimmer to start. Batteries are interchangeable.


+1

I started with the blower 8 years ago. Added the weedeater and hedge trimmer a couple years later. Then went with the mower and chainsaw. I'd do it all over again too.

re: Softwashing House/Roof

Posted by BMoney on 6/10/26 at 1:51 pm to
Spent a day doing it myself for the cost of the cleaning products, which was $100-ish. My roof isn't very steep, so it was easy. Pump spray a section at a time, then hose it all off. A literal rinse and repeat. It made a huge difference. I had a picture at some point that showed the difference between a section I treated and an untreated one, and it was stark. If I can find it, I'll update this post.

- Stop drinking, period.
- Eat unprocessed foods as much as possible
- Move more, eat less

It sounds simple, but it works. Do this for a year and you will get the results you want. Then it's up to you to keep it going.

Fennwood has some good holes, its a nice 9 holes. $44 vs over $100 I'm playing Fennwood everytime.


As I said, hard pass. It's a 9 hole goat track with great greens.

I can't imagine two breweries that close were good for either business


There are also 2 distilleries across the parking lot. One would think it would be a nice spot hit multiple places in an afternoon/evening. But beer is suffering in today's world. Hell, I quit drinking for good 8 months ago, so I'm not helping any. :lol:
Graduated with the job lined up. Went to Omaha for the CWS (we lost) and started when I got back.

Yes. I get the same postcards. It shows my class as well (1998).
Bought a 58" Roku model last fall for my girlfriend's living room. So far, so good.

I’ll drive another mile and play Fennwood twice before I pay $100 to play CM.


Hard pass. Greens at Fennwood are fantastic. That's it. I have better fairway grass in my backyard. And the course setup is bland and uninteresting at best.

Copper Card for $100 the first time you play that year, then it's $59 on weekends after that.

Just got one last week and have only been able to use it twice since I was out of town. I don't know if it's accurate or not, but it told me my metabolic age was 36 (I'm 49), so I'm not mad at it. :lol:

Bought one of the cheaper options on Amazon and it didn't make it a year. Just like a couple others in this thread. Bite the bullet and pay for the Heyward.

Matt at Golf Mechanics will certainly do it and can save the grip if you want to reuse it.

Ditto. Condescending prick is the perfect descriptor. At least Brandel played golf.
