After reading this, I completely agree. The thread as run its course and is not a goodbye thread. Time to do what you need to do Imma but letting this linger through Monday isnt right. And delete the thread after please. No reason to keep it running either.
Never in a million years would I think Blacklab's name was Bob. I always assumed he would be like a James or a Caleb.
My insignificant contribution to this thread is Derka, put Motown on ignore. Jesus. You arent a child. Take a step back and look at the reality you have created for yourself with this situation. Its stupid and childish. I like having you here on this site even though I dont think you and I have ever interacted with each other. I view you posting here as part of the fabric of Surly and assumed most everything was a tongue and cheek back and forth between you and the other posters. Immamac, I personally wouldnt ban him but you have to do what you have to do. Derka, Motown and Imma all need to take a step back and reassess this as it has gone WAY too far and looks stupid to most everyone else here. Anyway, whatever. The Days of our Surly Lives.
Every single Congressman knows if they are the ones to usher in some austerity/balance the budget, they will never be re-elected. And the American public is too stupid to see any further than their next paycheck.
There is only 1 solution. Congressional budget limits must be set by an independent committee, IE the fed. Congress can spend it however they wish but the Fed tells them what the limit is per year.
I was a raid leader in WoW for a Mythic guild for about 10 years. This is all true. I developed some wonderful managerial skills that I have used and continue to use on a daily basis. I have been a pharmacy director managing upward of 20 people both in person and remote. Every time I look at a resume I hope to see something like this. I would be intrigued. But they better not lie about it because I will call that shit out in 1 question.
The pic was funny, in and of itself, but the timing was so incredibly bad I can't stop laughing.
Of course everything turns on its head now that she has cancer, esp being so young and with 3 young kids. But don't lose too much sleep over the pic. Your last 2 posts are peak surly. Most of us know it's all good.
Last night, my family went to see the Dallas Symphony orchestra and John Williams 'Night at the Movies.' For the E.T. score, apparently after Spielberg gave John the final cut of the movie so he could lay the music over it, John became frustrated because of the various changes through out the editing process and he couldnt get the music to fit with what was happening on screen. Spielberg pulled him aside and said to get the music exactly the way he wanted it and give it to him. Then Spielberg recut the movie to fit John Williams score.
Home insurance premium increased exactly 75% for me this year. I am not exaggerating. This is unheard of. I have no claims on the house. Is everyone else getting the same? I am in the DFW area. @C-Man Is this what you are seeing? Am I getting fucked in the ass for Florida Louisiana and California company losses? Farmers told me insurance premiums are based on the state only, not nationally.
Let's see how November goes but this election unlike any other in our history will tell us who we are as a country. Its all out in the open now. Regardless of the outcome, we will get what we deserve. That much is true.
We are in the process of redoing our grass. Our St Augustine just cant handle year after year of the drought and 60+ days of 100+ temps without constant watering which I refuse to do for both conservation and monetary reasons.
I live in the DFW area. I want to use a seeded grass and want to water once a week. Which seeded grass can we use? What is the best way to plant it?
DFW has hit 90 degrees and above 8 times in Feb since records began to be tracked. We will be hitting that 2 times in the next 2 days blowing away the record highs. Fuck this shit.

Yea I'm looking for the 2024 blast furnace thread because I have some problems with you people and now you're gonna hear about it. I see a high of 88 in dfw next Monday, which last time I checked was still February. I already told my wife we are xeriscaping if we have another summer like the previous 2.
I always thought the best time to have life insurance was when you were making all your money. After you have made the bulk of it, you don't need it anymore. Life insurance in my eyes was always money for my family if I didn't have the time to provide it for them. Now it makes no sense for me to get it. Plus I've seen too many 48 hours mysteries to ever get more than a few 100k on a policy.
