I’m not putting anyone in prison for any drunk driving related 1st time offense
I know that you have to be trolling at this point but by your logic, I can drink all day and decide to drive home. At any point after that decision, I can kill someone. Then, all that should happen to me is a breathalyzer be installed in my vehicle? This is a top 5 all time bad take.
I would posit that when you get into a vehicle to drive while intoxicated is intent to harm others. 1st time offense DUI where you get pulled over, I'm cool with a breathalyzer. Injuries from something avoidable - jail time.

re: Question for OT Parents

take on maybe things you wish you had known before having kids and what advice you would give to first time parents.
1. Don't listen to everyone else (for the most part) about what you should and shouldn't do. Your experience will be your experience.
2. Splurge on the things you will use often. That cheap stroller is ok, but if you plan on using it, get one that will hold up and be comfortable for you and the baby. The rest of the stuff doesn't matter. The kid will play with an empty water bottle for 3 hours and never touch the $50 toy you bought. :lol:
3. Be on rock solid ground with your wife and try to have a plan for as much as you can. Those first few months will be hell on you guys so having a plan on how you can support her, the baby, and yourself while not getting enough sleep is key.
4. Childcare. Figure it out early.
5. Money. I just dropped $400 at walmart to restock and less than $100 was not baby involved. :lol: Seriously, just plan to spend more than you think at every turn. Ours has turned out to be a big arse baby and has grown out of every single thing we had planned for the first two years of his life. He grew out of the infant carrier around 3-4 months so we had to buy car seats way ahead of schedule. Diapers, swaddles, wipes, formula, food, toys, clothes. Never ending.
6. Enjoy it. The firsts are the most amazing thing. I look at ours every day and can't help but be amazed that my wife and I created this tiny human. He learns something new everyday and I can't wait to teach him the rest.

Only way I would accept a job as a teacher if my pay was tied to student performance would be if schools and teachers were empowered to actually remove bad behavior from their classroom. I would gladly sign a waiver to allow 24/7 recording of the classroom so that parents can see how abhorrent some of their kids' behavior is.
Some of you must not have an educator in your lives. These classrooms aren't filled with model students eager to learn for the day.
I've had some version of this typed up trying to reply for 10 minutes.
Every parent should have to spend an entire school day shadowing a teacher once a year.
I like the idea of recording of the classroom. I like the idea of actually documenting and punishing kids for their behavior. I'd like it if the admins were actually held accountable. None of that will happen though.
ETA: Fire about 40% of administration employees and give that money back to the teachers.

Good for you.
Track your food intake for at least a month. Use chatgpt or one of the other 1000 ways to calculate what your calorie intake should be. I started only tracking cals/protein/carbs/fat and I had like 9 pounds of fat drop off with 6 pounds of muscle added on.

I feel like that was a company recently that got into trouble by making it intentionally difficult to cancel. I'll have to see if I can find it.

What did you start out at, and how much is your monthly now?
Idk. The value is worth it to me. My point was that every subscription service has gone up in price.
I do have to thank you though. Prices were going up to 20.99/mo but when I went back and looked, I can sign up directly through youtube for 15.99/mo instead of through apple and paying for a passthrough.

You mean as a member of the constantly increasing subscription prices Club don't you?
I have been a premium subscriber since covid. I was tired of ads and they had a free trial. I'm not sure what your gripe is. Every subscription has gone up in price. I remember paying less than $10 a month for Netflix.
I couldn't imagine having to watch ads. To me it just depends on how much you use YT whether or not. I watch things on it daily so it makes sense for me. I just wish they'd have a discount for YTTV subscribers as well.

I had this at one time. I had a manual transmission car and creeped in and out of stops on purpose to see what it would do. It dinged me for both acceleration and stopping. Took it out after that. I was told that it couldn't be used to raise my rate but I don't believe that one bit. As much as they try to fight claims, it's hard for me to believe that perceived negative information wouldn't be stored and used in the future to the insurance companies benefit.

I’m seeing a lot of people saying they need to just go to 4 rounds of alt shot but I think that would actually turn off players. Alt shot is a real grind and they need a break from that in between days. I don’t know if the fourball is the best option though.
I was there two out of the four days. I think the Thursday round could be a two person scramble. See some really low scores and creative shots from the pros I'm sure.
Stick alternate shot on Friday before the cut. Fourball on saturday, Alt on Sunday.

i dabble in perplexity. the computer function seems to be much better with data and spreadsheets than the normal functions. it does cost extra. seems to be about $1 per minute of computation for complex tasks.

My favorite this week was when somebody on twitter posted practice vids of Zavion Thomas and said it was Toosii.
Idk how many times I've said this but it's a lot: ESPN apps went to shite several years ago when they got rid of the dedicated "watch" app and integrated it into their main ESPN app.
It's constant logging in/out, lag, closing and reopening and it has been this way for a long time. I'll have stretches that work well but then go through a month where I'm having to hard reset for a month.

Could that work in Baton Rouge?
I'm not sure about that exact business as there is already a "golf suites" here.
But.......a nice public range with grass and mats would be great here. Since we lost Sonny's (i think that's the name), there are very few places to go to hit balls from grass.
Someone here might be able to answer for me, but does Santa Maria allow hitting off of grass anymore? I haven't been there very much since they put in the mats and those times that I did, it was mats only.
There's the place off of sherwood too, but I no nothing about it.

Pathetic. Man did nothing wrong. He grew and harvested some plants, and hurt no one.
I agree. This is pretty embarrassing. If it's true that this was purely personal and medicinal, the SO there should be ashamed of themselves. I doubt that this guy had any enterprise going with a few plants.
They'd be better off cruising around getting people off the road that look and smell like they are coming from the latest taping of cheech and chong.
Pot heads are going to have a rough time if the police can ever figure out a legal and proven way to determine thc amounts through breath or saliva.
