And some people still don’t believe in God.

Are Seiko Mod watches bad?

One of my absolute favorites in my collection is this original Bond Seamaster clone- but in a GMT.

Dogs are awesome- get a GSP if you want the absolute most loving funniest member of your family ever!

Y’all do reallze that the only reason the world can feed the massive amount of people we have now is because of Roundup resistant varieties, right?

Roundup Ready soybeans, Roundup Ready cotton, Roundup Ready corn, Roundup Ready canola, Roundup Ready sugarbeets.

Roundup Ready wheat isn’t released yet- so this “triple digit” level is residual from other crops in the rotation, or pre planting burndown.

Everyone wants to shite all over glyphosate, but humans live longer and live more productive lives than ever.

Go take all the biotech out of ag. and see how a starving population feels.

Is there anywhere to go in SA that’s still safe to foreigners currently? I hear carjacking is almost an inevitability there if you’re white.

I quit going when one of my best friends got his face shot off over a Toyota Hilux.

Camera showed it (it happened at his house)- he was giving them
the damn truck. They still blew his brains out.

I’m sure there are good places still. But it’s just sad all around.

I could write a whole new thread and post a new story a day about someone I knew, or a person they knew who was killed or assaulted over some stupid car. Or they were coming to get your land.

Getting a GSP will be one of the great joys of your life- I got fascinated with them hunting in Argentina.

When we decided to get one, I hit the GSP lottery- single mom, 3 kids, 2 dogs, 4 cats, and some chickens living in an HOA in South Carolina. Lady and boyfriend split, dude shags arse- it was “his” dog according to the lady. She said “he’s well bred, we looked all over the country for this dog but I can’t take care of him” She tried to give it back to the breeder- imagine how that went?

I took a chance, flew to SC with my wife- this poor lady opens the door, my wife gets about knocked over by a Weimaraner and Murphy the GSP. I see her kitchen table is knocked over along with two chairs. My wife about shits and I think nearly told me to get my arse back in the rental and we could just fly back.

I snapped my finger, called his name and he sat down right next to me.

That’s been 6 months ago, and he hasn’t really left my side.

Dude absolutely misses me when I leave for the day and hugs me when I come home. Everyone in this house is smitten by him. He’s had some bird training and we continue to work on that. He might be the most chill GSP in the world.

I think the GSP horror stories come from people who think they are cool, but have no idea that they are people level intelligent- and need interaction. We run with ours, love on him like he’s one of our own children, bring him all over- he can run the whole length of Grand Isle…from the state park to Bridgeside and never miss a beat. He goes offshore with me. We think he may be ready to go in the duck blind with us next year.

Truly a blessing to have a GSP…just be ready for the velcro part. It might be one of their best attributes. Oh, and the not stinking and not shedding part is a huge plus.

State Capitol had no chance once Nelson Hoya took over at No Problem in Belle Rose.

The issue historically with No Problem was that the track surface wasn’t good enough to run a top fuel car on.

Two years ago, I worked with an Antron Brown A Fuel team and the idea was that Antron would also haul his top fuel car down to make an exhibition pass- the plan was scrapped thinking the track surface wasn’t good enough to do it.

When the A Fuel car got to No Problem with that team, plus some of Antron’s Matco team guys- they started to look at the track and immediately said “we shoulda brought the top fuel car”

The idea then was that the driver of the A fuel car would move to top fuel ultimately and it would give her a chance also to make a few hits on it.

Fuel cars are a different breed- for the uninitiated, you can learn to drive a 275mph car with no blower but to make a 5000 hp jump with the blower- you get to make some 100’ hits, then some 300’ hits before you ever even get to think about making a 1000’ pass.

What an idiot. Every damn sailor knows to be very knowledgeable about guns on board when sailing to other countries. He’s screwed.

I work in the ag. industry- John Deere….like the supposed mom and pop and apple pie people- are moving to subscription based services.

I spoke at an industry event a few weeks ago and said “You think Deere likes you? No, Deere likes your money. They are a publicity traded company who learned how to make $10B in 2023- they will tell you they love you, all while making their shareholders happy”

In Deere’s world, they will bill able to subscription a lot of features on the product that we normally take for granted as “stock”

Want the PTO? No problem- subscribe
Want the 3 pt hitch? No problem- subscribe

Deere will say it saves money for fleet operations that don’t use some of those features (yes, some big tractors don’t have a 3pt or PTO) but they will not reduce the price of the vehicle and then upcharge the hell out of you to turn these things on.

What range do you think is realistic on it?

You’re gonna get downvoted to hell, but I kinda think they are cool.
