re: Anyone here ever written or thought about writing a book?

I've self-published 3. Naturally, I think they're pretty good. It's that whole selling them thing that's a problem.
re: My reasons why Trump will win comfortably; did the Dems purposefully punt this round?
Posted by Gr8t8s on 11/5/24 at 7:51 am
I sometimes wonder if the teams were just inept. Biden thought he was the greatest and the machine intended to "basement" him again this year. Kamala's team saw this as their only opportunity to be president and made a power play, using biden's over confidence to go debate trump.
Once the world saw that debacle, there was no other option but her. The machine had to get behind her. Kamala was also overconfident in herself and her team and they have done nothing but shite the bed.

I have been. Most of it has been cannibalized by I40, so you cant do "all" of it. More than that, though, it's been beaten down by the lack of traffic and much of it is run down. There are still some good stops along the way....just hop on and off for those.
re: Who do the Dolphins pursue at QB for the rest of the season?
Posted by Gr8t8s on 9/13/24 at 5:20 pm
Mac Jones actually makes the most sense. Probably would fit well in Miami with Mcdaniels since his job would focus on quickness and accuracy over needing a strong arm or being a “playmaker.” And they could get him cheap. Jones isn’t the answer but might be a good piece to hold the fort down while they figure out who could potentially be a franchise qb.

re: Anyone have a ‘toy’ as daily driver?
Posted by Gr8t8s on 7/6/24 at 9:46 am
I did. In 3 years, I put 50K miles on it. Drove it to NY a couple of times and several other places. Tires were expensive AF and only lasted about 15-20k miles. Once my warranty expired, it seemed like everything started going wrong with it, and I was coming up on replacing brakes and rotors....which cost about $10k. I realized why people don't make those cars their daily drivers. In the end, with prices coming down quickly and inventory going up, I unloaded it. Had a blast with it, though, and don't regret a second of it.

They’re looking for precedent. Sue the company based on what people do with their products. Get a W and gun manufacturers become even more in the crosshairs.

I live close to Huntsville and work in Nashville a lot. Huntsville is staring to feel like Nashville’s mini-me without the night-life. I used to love both cities. Now…..well….

re: Should you tip at a coffee shop?
Posted by Gr8t8s on 12/19/22 at 8:16 am
I don't tip at all whenever I walk in, I order at a window or a counter, and someone hands me my food or drink. If you do that, then why aren't we tipping the walmart stock boy who put the food on the shelf or whatever else.
Delivery? Sure. Restaurant service? Absolutely. To-go food? frick no.

re: Patriots just made the dumbest play I’ve ever seen

He’s been doing a lot of talking as if others are holding him back this year
Well, he did enough to get the win tonight. If not for terrible defense at the end and a very questionable touchdown call, this wouldn’t even be a thing. He didn’t make the lateral and mac was standing flat footed while the other dude had momentum as he caught and trucked mac. Mac has not done well this year. He’s regressed. Blame that on whatever you want, but that play under those circumstances, I think he’s gotta get a pass.
re: I know it's cliche to quote Orwell, but I can't help but be fascinated how spot on he was
Posted by Gr8t8s on 12/13/22 at 1:00 pm
Orwell’s problem is that he believed in utopian socialism with little interference from the state. After nuclear weapons hit the scene, he may have realized the impossibility of that stance and, while still a socialist, was a less devout one.

He needed something for his audition tape for his future employer.
But also, Bryce looked healthy and more accurate. The plays were still taking way too long to develop. If Bryce didn’t have 20 seconds to throw, that game would have been different.

I went to Long Island and drove through the Hamptons the week of the election. LOTS of republican signage. I don’t recall seeing a single democrat sign.

re: Why your prices have gone up… an anecdote
Posted by Gr8t8s on 10/10/22 at 10:30 am
That’s not true at all. Businesses aren’t more greedy today than they were yesterday. They have no clue what their true costs are going to be because they’re rapidly rising and what they expect their costs to be may not be anything like they actually are. They either have to Jack up prices or risk losing money. The cure for high prices has always been high prices…..until the government gets involved, and you’re seeing that now.

As far as government encroachment of individual liberty, the current State is infinitely more tyrannical than the one we threw off in 1776.
Now, half the country thinks we should rejoin the political principles of the government we threw off because we didn’t like the direction it was heading.
