I have something similar. I don't care what you think. I have prescription sunglasses so I would like to keep them to see.
This is the kind of BS that bothers me. Or a building fee where you are getting the procedure done. Was told the fee was like $500 at the colonscope place. I paid $80. 6 months later I get a check for $80 and the $80 nor the $500 ever showed on any billing statement. It's all a racket and annoying.

Fauci probably made enough off of it today to start his own gain of function lab.

Looks like you can get summer uhp tires. Now I have no problem with the 15k street miles these deliver because of car things. But, some of them can be a little sketchy in a downpour, they don't like temps under 40f or so.

I bet this is aimed at folks putting "regular tires" vs lrr tires back on their Prius and Tesla's when they wear out. Tesla folks destroy some tires. Heavy car and shitty roads and low profile tires equals flats.
That's how the cops are trained I think. Mag dump the first volley while seeking cover/concealment and reload. More selective shots after that.

I don't know if Truecar is still a thing but I used it a couple times to get a national and regional avg price to start at.

Nolan Ryan wasn't one to be trifled with.
My bougie coffee guy quit making it. 1# micro roast. If you aren't grinding beans you need to up your coffee snobbery. Breville grind and Brew, 8 cups, It grinds for about 10-12 seconds.
Great, the morning I need to go that way.

Would I have to rent the big 10 ft x 40ft storage unit if I wanted it in cash?

The cops walked right past the salesman on their way into the dealership. Why the GM didn't just ask if anyone sold a truck this morning is the problem.

I don't think these items were navy issue. I didn't find any crayon crumbs either so probably not marine.

Mil-spec AR platform, but I only have about a weeks worth of ammo at walking dead rate of fire. I know. Rookie numbers. Maybe 2 if you throw pistol calibers in the mix.

I agree with you here. My dad did the firefighter training and the airplane escape section he said you have like 90 seconds to get out. I make note of the exit row if it's forward or back. Have a shoe and usually long pants.

And a soft sided carry-on should be required so it can mash into the wedge shape of the back of the bin.

In general I agree that more folks need to go into the trades but, $120/yr is probably year 25 of that and you barely supported yourself on the 3 job changes the first 5 yrs trying to earn an extra 2 bucks.
The few things I have gotten online have a weird smell and are sticky. The videos say it's the waterproofing or whatever they clean them with. Mostly the smooth surfaces like interior of a ruck.
For the Lar-porators it's all online. 20yr old stuff is that crap camo pattern from mid 2000's I think. I have bought some rucks and dump pouches. They are handy at an outdoor range you can run around at.

I'm not, but im not logging license plates and storing descriptions of cars and people walking down the street when they do pick up someone. And selling that info.
