Hey Oil Barons.......
I’m here. Coming up on 20 years since my first summer and 15 years full time and I’m game planning a second career because I’m afraid if I lose what I have now there is no replacing it.

Financial advice
Correct. I was referring to the “If you fail to service it” comment. Probably should have put it in bold. The other big downside is the 60 day payback if you leave the job. Not sure PLs job security but it’d be a big concern for me in O&G right now.

Financial advice
You’ll owe the IRS 10% + taxes on the loan amount as income. If the cash for the penalty and additional taxes are not available you’d be indebted to the IRS. May be better than the CC or mortgage but I’d prefer not to have the IRS after me.

Hey Oil Barons.......
Best of luck. It’ll be interesting to see how many technical professionals cut since 2015 just bail and leave the industry. I was talking to a landman buddy of mine who graduated around 2010, I think he said something like 4 of his class of 20ish were still in the industry.

Beer 2020: Pint glasses or it didn’t happen.
There are 7 or 8 breweries within a mile or so of Prairie all with a little different vibe and style. Also a new beer hall right off the park with 100 taps. It may be the best option to try a variety of locals.

Beer 2020: Pint glasses or it didn’t happen.
Had Left Hand Peanut Butter Milk stout and was fairly disappointed. Left Hand Nitro Milk Stout is one of my go tos when there aren’t any good stouts on the menu so I was surprised not to like the PB seasonal as much. Also had Boulevard Restless Nights and really enjoyed it.

Bourbon
I’m constantly on the hunt for a good $25 bottle of whiskey. Current favorites are base Four Roses, Old Granddad 114 and Rittenhouse Rye BiB. We did the Bourbon Trail last year and hit 23 distilleries and sampled over 100 spirits. It was awesome to see all of the little variations people do (Woodford steams warehouses in the winter, FR only builds single story rick houses, etc) but it also really helped define my palate. I prefer a younger (cheaper) whiskey for the spicier flavor profile with more of the cinnamon and heat profiles. At multiple distillers we had an entry level side by side with a mid to upper and preferred the entry. Buffalo Trace and Eagle Rare is the side by side I remember most with the preference to BT. We met Jimmy Russell and got him to sign a bottle of Wild Turkey Master’s Keep Rye. Not sure if it will ever get drunk.

Wives and the Stupid Shit They Say/Do
A few ideas to run either as standalone or as some sort of codependent variable: A: How many questions does she ask where you have the exact same knowledge base I.e. watching a movie together for the first time. B: How many questions does she ask with optional answers where the answer you give is ignored in favor of the other option. C. How many questions does she ask that she continues to explain and justify even after receiving an answer.

3 year old dog has cancer
Sorry to hear. We went through it with our last dog. Had breast cancer removed at 13/14 and ended up losing her 2 years later to a brain tumor. This book was great and they have an active Facebook and email group. Highly recommended, it gave me a good knowledge base to talk with the vet on treatments. https://dogcancerbook.com
