No. Not lately. Not ever, Unless you consider the driver getting lost once he gets to the condos trouble. We have to chase him down a lot. It's not his fault though. I don't know how many G-202s there are, but there's a few.

You should have used the sidewalk.

Whatever they're cooking they like to burn off all the water, then fill it up and burn it off again, then fill it up and burn it off again. They go through that cycle about three or four times and then it's cooked. There are only two temperature settings, off and full throttle.

Until June of 2020 I was a commercial trucker. I never had any problem telling any of the fellow road warriors how I felt. Those guys are not representative of the profession. I suspect there are a thousand times more truckers pissed off at them for fucking up their businesses over such a...

As I mentioned, I keep a little of it around (<<10%). If for no other reason than that it is pretty, and I like to take it out and look at it every now and then. My point was that its market value (except in the '70s) hasn't seemed to have any correlation with inflation. While everything else...

Hmmm. Can't speak for the USA?

Many if not most of the public schools in the USA neither want, nor deserve, good teachers. They have low pay, lousy conditions, and as a bonus if you actually teach the little bastards something you run the risk of being prosecuted. They even financially incentivize vigilante investigators to...

Gold is up 1/3 of a percent since a year ago. I probably wouldn't lose more than a couple hundred bucks on a $20 Saint Gaudens I bought ten years ago. Bitcoin is down 11%. Neither has paid a dime in dividends. They are pure speculation, take them off the list. Unless you know what you're...

What does it mean by as of Tuesday? I thought that was all they ever do. Aside from chasing down bribes.

I' pretty sure Puerto Rico and The US Virgin Islands aren't international destinations for Americans. Not only that, there is very little respect for human life in the Dominican Republic.

There used to be a place near the intersection of Kennedy and Luperon that had piles of them stacked up on the premises. I assumed that you could have bought them there. I haven't been by there in years though, so I can't say if they are still there.

I think the military should plan on hanging around for a while. At >7500 that place is way overpopulated and understaffed. A little squabble between a couple of rival gangs is nothing. In my opinion, the only thing holding the lid on that place was that the inmates were relatively happy. I...

I spent a Sunday afternoon there once, visiting my brother in law. It was kind of like being locked in to an early '70s music festival, though I didn't see any booze or drugs. My neighbor in Rhode Island told me he did some time there for attempting to smuggle drugs out of the country...

I'm pretty sure that's an agreement between the credit card companies and the gas stations that was reached 10-15 (maybe more, time flies) years ago when the gas stations threatened to stop accepting credit cards. The gas stations only make a margin on the volume of fuel they sell, which...

Roger started the very exclusive nine inning twenty strikeout club, and was a two timer (still the only two timer), before the next member joined.
