re: Coworker of mine is going to Masters practice round and offered to buy me some stuff

The gnomes hit eBay before the first golfers tee off. There are people who only go to spend tens of thousands in the pro shop just to sell it all online.

You can always go to the women’s amateur championship on the Sunday before the masters. Get the see the entire course and same concessions and gift shop. Tickets are much cheaper as well.

4200 hours a year is working 80 hrs a week. Does he have no family?
I’ve got nothing against cops, even willing to buy their meals when I see them, but I don’t believe any one in the US works that much.

I was pretty set on getting the 2025 Yukon but all these issues has me back to looking at a used Land Cruiser. I just want something dependable that I can load up a family of 5 and take a vacation. Land Cruiser is about the only vehicle I’d be confident could be handed down to my son in 13 years.
Sad when you can’t just go get a suburban anymore and drive it for 300k miles with regular maintenance.

Elijah Haven will be a Tiger unless we are given an SMU death sentence. Fortunately for us what cost SMU can’t happen anymore.
Elijah will be wearing P&G in 3 years.

I see it still has the bathroom trailer. That’s a shame.

We have not had rain in what seems like a month. The grass is bone dry and has already turned to the dormant color. Or the dead color from no water.

A friend of mine explained it to me, but usually when there is a big flame it means they don't have as many people working that day than usual. When that happens they do something to make sure shite don't blow up, hence the reason its always really big around the holidays.
Your friend is mistaken. These billion dollar business aren’t slowing down production so someone can go to a Christmas party or football game. The intent is to run at full rates 24/7/365 unless a shutdown/upset prevents that from happening.
The reason the flares get large is because of shutdown/startup and upsets.
Superflex keeper help

I can keep Keenan Allen for $18 or Jakobi Meyers for $2. Don’t love either option but considering Jakobi because I would think I can get Keenan for less than $18. Jakobi isn’t startable week 1 so also seems silly to pay more than $1 for a non-starter.
Can also just not keep either.
Already keeping Kincaid for $2 and Khalil Herbert for $3. Might not keep Herbert if the trade rumors don’t pan out. Could consider Bijan for $66 but feel like I could draft him again for less based on last years performance.

He withdrew from the mid am since the US Am starts Monday. I’m sure the field is a little relieved.
Why not put the LED lights in the Box?
Posted by absolute692 on 7/15/24 at 7:34 am
I’m not sure if the LED light show trend has made it to college baseball yet but we all know that will eventually happen. I’m sure it would have been advantageous to do that upgrade when they did it at Tiger Stadium.
I know this is pretty low on the list of upgrades that the Box needs but it would be nice to be a leader as opposed to a follower as it relates to this trend coming to college baseball.

This. The comfort is second to none. Fair warning, they are pricey and once you wear them you won’t buy another shoe. They usually have a couple of deals each year to get them for much cheaper though.

Would everyone still recommend Buddha for a putter fitting? Both have SAM Lab, I won’t buy from either since I have pro shop credit.
Mowers for residential Bermuda
Posted by absolute692 on 4/14/24 at 7:53 am
Just curious what everyone has at home.
I am considering switching from Centipede to Bermuda once my current fertilizer runs out and trying to understand if I’ll be switching mowers as well.
I currently have a standard rotary push mower. The cheapest reel mower I’ve seen is the California trimmer; looks solid, can pay a little more for a Honda engine. Any opinions on this mower? I don’t think the toro greensmaster is going to be in the budget.
FWIW, I only have about 3500 sqft of lawn.

I think it’s this. F-5 is only used for training for the US armed forces. F-35s come to town to practice against them. Modern day Top Gun.

I think a bigger issue is the shite show that takes place when they “fix” the roads.
Look at Nicholson, they stripped the asphalt from LSU to downtown June of last year. Figured it was smart to get it done before school/football. Should have known better because here we are 9 months later with the same conditions it was in June.
That’s absolutely pathetic and people should lose their jobs. I know I would lose my job if I made no progress on something in 9 months.
