What do you mean by “the economy”?

Everyone in my circle is thriving. The only people who think the economy is bad live in the DC metro, NYC, or work in mass media… or the people who consume their pablum.
If it weren’t for this website, I wouldn’t know that it exists. I’m embarrassed for anyone who admits to following it.

What about your payroll taxes? Could you pass an audit by your friends at the IRS?
This had a devastating impact on me personally this week.my Honduran maid didn’t show up because her assistant maid was scared that ICE is focusing on NOLA.

My wife had to make the bed and load the dishwasher, making her cross.

I tell ya, it’s been hell.

You’re an idiot. I love when people who can’t use “your and you’re” correctly expound on the intelligence of other people.

Hopefully they don’t tighten their minds.

Maybe after they get their minds out of the litter, they will literally lose their minds.
30-45 seconds to bring a wreath to the front door and hang it on the hook.

Christmas tree shopping and install can be an event but I don’t do anything else.
I’ve never seen more than 5 minutes of that stupid arse shite, with lip syncing pathetic performances. If someone puts it on, I leave the room.
Can we ban the fricking ‘can’t hold their liquor,12-steppers’ banned from this thread?

We’re trying to have fun and the holier than thou wet blankets come virtue signaling.
Meh… I use Tony’s.

Ketchup, mayo, Worcestershire, Tony’s

It’s an exact replica, or pretty damn close.
The one in Lafayette is nearly always perfect.

I don’t think the one in Metry is as good.
Instrument sets are not in “pouches”, they are in trays, but now we’re splitting hairs.
Short answer is they are manually washed by hand to remove gross contaminants (pieces parts), then are run through a washer (much like a powerful dishwasher) using high level disinfectant chemicals, then high pressure/temperature steam sterilization (autoclaves).

Most facilities would have several washers and sterilizers. Instruments which cannot tolerate high pressure/temps are sterilized in another machine which uses a “chemical plasma cloud”. They should have a few of these as well.

There are also ultrasonic cleaners for delicate instruments.

This entire cycle including cooling time takes 4-5 hours. Adequate inventory of instruments and sets should allow for backups, but depending on the types of cases scheduled on a given day, and financial constraints that may not always be possible.

Is your lack of perception and awareness really that non-existent?

SFP believes his drivel.

Gaucho is a comedian and/or troll. He’s pretty good at it, apparently, because someone like you is always falling for it.
19 and 20. Now you can understand why I’m a psychopath.

They had no idea what they were doing.
For a long time…

“Candid” pictures

“Abstract” art

But I’m good now.

you mostly grill hamburgers and steaks, a pellet grill is not your best option and you are going to be underwhelmed. While you can grill on them, it’s more of a side feature that you can make work vs its actual function. (Although the Recteq FirePro series has bridged the gap some)


My Reqtec bullseye pro gets to 1000 degrees. That’s HOT!

So not all pellet grills can only do low & slow, but it’s certainly very good at that.

The kettle is stainless steel, and seems to be well made.

I have an BGE XL and a Weber propane. Since I got the bullseye this summer, I haven’t used the others once. Zero learning curve and ease of use is a 10.

Did I suck off Reqtec correctly?

It will take 2-3 years for economic impact from policy takes place.
