    Social distancing beers

    I like orange juice, a lot. And beer just as much, but this is a great example of "two great tastes that just aren't great together".

    Social distancing beers

    While I like Bud Light just fine, putting that orange label on it will help ensure I stay more than 6 ft away from your beer stash. It's awful, plain awful...

    Corona Virus....How Long?

    I thnk we have about 3-4 weeks in the U.S. before it's going the other direction for good. The whole social distancing thing, etc? Probably less.

    Retirement Opportunity

    By "same type of account" you mean similar stocks, mutual funds, etc, the answer is yes. However, you would have to pay taxes on that $50,000 you take out of your retirement account to put into the Roth. So I your marginal tax bracket is 20%, you would only have $40,000 in your Roth after it...

    Time to buy a new pickup?

    Just saw a Ford advertisement for up to $16k off of a new F150. Now if they would only do that for the F250s.

    Hoarders what should be done

    I stopped at WalMart yesterday to pick up some groceries. They were sold out of frozen veggies! I shit you not, they only had a few green beans, okra, and other inedible shit in the frozen veggies section. WTF???

    Open Water Watch

    I drove down there yesteday. There was still a considerable ridge of ice on the ramp at water's edge, but someone had chipped away enough to dunk a boat. I couldn't see either of the two boats that had put in from the ramp area, but with the amount of ice floating by I would have been...

    Time to buy a new pickup?

    Last time I checked into it, many of the Ford discounts and rebates were limited to "dealer stock on hand". There were those that were available for special order, but since they said it would take 10-12 weeks to get it in, all the existing rebates and discounts were set to expire ahead of the...

    Time to buy a new pickup?

    Reasonably attractive pricing, but I need the front bench seat. And I don't need the snowplow setup or the Ford 5th wheel crap. It's really amazing to see the differences between dealership in what crap they think they need to put on every pickup in the lot.

    Shock collars

    I have the Garmin Alpha. The GPS is mostly why I went that way. The rest of the system is mehh for ergonomics, accessories (holsters, etc) and accuracy of the GPS. There are times the dog is a solid 100 - 400 yds away from where the gps places him. The use of a touch screen really can slow...

    Time to buy a new pickup?

    I keep thinking the same thing, and then I go look at the prices and realize I'll be waiting a quarter, or two. BTW, I'm looking to get a new F250 diesel. There were some decent discounts to get rid of the remaining 2019's just a couple weeks ago. Now you are pretty much looking at the 2020...

    Tom Brady going to the Bucs

    Hobbling your way into retirement. Let's face it, he's doing this to scratch an itch, not because he's broke. Don't get me wrong, I've made plenty of poor choices due to ego and itch scratching, just not at this level.

    Tom Brady going to the Bucs

    I'm thinking he's going to regret this.

    Kirsten Baesler

    Right! I am guessing that professional pic she uses (has used?) is over 10 years old. I have noticed this in a few industries (realtors, bankers, etc) where they snap a pic of themselves when they are 30 and with long blonde hair, and then when you go to meet them you find a 50-something gal...

    Some live sporting event still on

    Well, I watched Dodge Ball last night. And I'm not even talking about the movie, it was a legit dodge ball tournament on one of the ESPN channels. Sheesh...

    Rimfire targets build ideas

    Golf balls hung from a string are better than briquets. They will last for more than a single shot or two.

    I can't think of any major body of water in this state that is not alkaline by definition.
