What are my options if I can no longer afford my house?



Get a roommate. Rent costs are astronomical right now, people will pay a bunch for a place to stay.

Crazy to think she was so young and Heroes was almost 20 years ago.

Just sold the first calf for $300k
I'm coming from my pixel 8 pro xl. Best and longest lasting phone I've ever had. I went ahead and got my pre-order in for the 11 pro xl 16/512. Can't wait. I'll report back.

It's funny to watch how slow progress is sometimes. My boyfriend made an appointment to see an orthopedic surgeon the other day. Phone call was 100% AI. It took forever to go through every single prompt to finally get everything done. Must have taken 15 minutes of talking to the robot.

We know that eventually this will be a 20 second prompt that gets our personal AI to communicate with theirs. But how many years will this take to become a reality.

Yes. You can even play NCAA on a console vs someone on a PC. Cross platform option has gotten to be pretty common with online play games.



And you can hook up xbox controllers to a pc too.

Things to do/eat in Denver

Posted by Kingpenm3 on 8/6/26 at 8:24 pm
I'm flying to Denver tomorrow, get there around 10:00, but don't have to be to my meeting until 5:00. Any suggestions for things to do or a really neat place to go eat for lunch? TIA!

House offer question

Posted by Kingpenm3 on 8/5/26 at 10:45 pm
We found a house in Lake Charles that we really like. House is only 3 years old. But while touring the house I noticed that about half of the windows in the house were not correctly latched closed. The little flip latches wouldn't line up with the window correctly to lock. All of them were flipped "closed" without going into the latch, which made them worse because that just pushed the windows out further from their correct location so they weren't sealed. They were single-hung, tilt-in windows.

Maybe the heat and humidity has them swelled up. Maybe the previous owners just didn't know what they were doing so they've been like that for a while. Or maybe they weren't installed well and have always been like that.

But I don't want to have to get to the inspection phase (and pay for the inspection) before this is addressed. How do I approach this in the offer? Could I make an offer contingent on correcting the windows? Or should I wait and address that after the inspection? TIA
Corey was great. We went in there one time and he asked us what we wanted. We said we weren't sure, so he asked "Have you had our burger before?" We said no, and he said "Ahhhh. Well that is why you don't know what you want then".

I don't know anything about Apple, but the ATT NextUp is the biggest scam ever.

I keep thinking there's no way the amount of TexMex places that keep opening up can be sustained. I know the U.S. has a growing Hispanic population, but those folks likely look at the food at those joints the same true born Cajuns look at a place like Razoo's.



TexMex is the only restaurant model that is working right now. Every other restaurant has seen their inputs skyrocket. Still cheap to put cheap meat in cheap tortillas.
