The Astros hire a lot of computer hackers, don't they? Make sure to tell your son to tell off Attanasio when he goes in for the interview. "You've reduced this team to a laughing stock all for the glorification of your massive ego!"

I was/am 1-4 on finding a commissary (commercial kitchen) to start my hot dog business. The one that would take me is far away and I decided that would be too much work for a secondary income. Finally got a hold of the one I wanted and they're in the middle of remodeling and opening a second location, and they should have room for me in about two months. I won't have a full season of it, but that's no big deal at all. It'll give me more time to practice, scout a good location and get everything ready. I thought I could vend at a state park, but some very high ups sent a mass email saying I definitely can not.
-
That's my thinking, too. They're not one player away this coming season, and an extra 2nd now should give them a little more depth just in case they can't re-sign some of the big-name players the following offseason. Plus they need depth more than they have one big hole to fill. -
Trade down!

Strangulation is a high-up felony by me. Really a shame some people's character completely wastes their talent. Instead of a HOF ring he'll be "oh yeah, that guy" in a few years. Of the players coming out of college (or NFL FAs) with major character concerns, it feels like it's a really small percentage who turn things around and fly right. I wonder how many teams are treating or beginning to treat even little things like Manziel shoplifting right before the draft as signs they just shouldn't deal with the guy.

They don't have dividends, but a few pay interest at varying rates. I'm holding Algorand through Coinbase right now and it pays 6%, so it's been automatically re-investing $0.41 for me every day. But considering how much crypto goes up and down, I certainly wouldn't use interest as any factor to invest or not. Plus I'd wait for prices to tank again before holding long-term. I hear a lot of folks expecting a tank sometime around Q3, so once they do and everybody says crypto is worthless I'll buy back and hold more long-term. Bitcoin has a set amount that will ever be mined to fight inflation and others don't have that limit. So it's my understanding that some like Algorand will do a controlled release of more to current owners as their way of adjusting things.

Coinbase has outrageous fees. A new broker or the SEC allowing crypto ETFs would really cut into Coinbase's market share. Only competitive advantage they seem to have right now is they're WAY easier to use, but that's not a particularly big barrier for someone else to cross. I won't be buying their IPO.

We just finished re-marking 25 miles of hiking trails, which means nailing in the new ones and pulling out the old. I just came back from being out six hours to do maybe 1.5 miles of trail because the last boss had a marker put up every 10 steps. I counted. I'm a big fan of signs and markers, but that's just overkill. On top of it, it's hot outside and the first post I see is Hawing's kool-aid pitcher.

Wow, I've never heard of a pension being able to go to a kid and not just the spouse only. A friend's kid works for a county in TN and he has a 100% matching 401k. So maybe Tennessee just has crazy-good retirement benefits.
-
By me it's been the opposite. We got maybe an hour of some ice and that's been it for the winter. The ticks have been out since late February. But permethrin is cheap enough to buy. I mix the appropriate amount of water and spray down my clothes every couple of months.
-
It'll be tough without the draft picks to find rising players on the cheap, but also no reason they can't just follow the Lakers' strategy of getting your 2-3 superstars and then filling in the gaps with role players. Plenty of guys out there who can't score but can do a lot of other stuff well. I tend to doubt Lopez sees the next couple years in a Bucks uniform, though.

That....seems like a lot of money.

I just looked it up and Belle Delphine's bathwater is selling on Ebay for $6000. Get yours today!

Don't worry, 2/3rds of them won't be on the roster after next season. -
Can't say I've ever done a three-day proof, so what do you mean by "proper flour"? Do you mean a higher-end brand like King Arthur, or more the type of flour like a 00?
-
I do. More of a Roman style if you want to look up a recipe. I'll use bread flour instead of AP, and you definitely want a pizza stone (or better yet a pizza steel) if you want a crispy bottom, which you'll want to pre-heat for at least a half hour at whatever the hottest setting your oven will go. And if you get a pizza peel (or the back side of a big cookie sheet), some cornmeal will help prevent it from sticking to it. And jiggle the dough on the peel before you add toppings to make sure it slides around. And then get the toppings on in a hurry. Also a pretty good difference in taste and texture if you're able to proof the dough in the fridge overnight. Strangely I've yet to try a sourdough pizza crust, but I need to.

At least the advantage of meetings being virtual now is they can't see I'm on brewerfan and not paying attention to them.

Certainly some of the scouts must have also seen Love as a very special talent who didn't come around often whom they just had to have. Meanwhile SF is throwing their future at the third-best QB and they don't even know which one they'll be getting. I get the feeling Rodgers' MVP season surprised a lot of front-office folks. I'd venture to guess half are wanting to ride out Rodgers' thee years and the other half are excited about what they'd get in a trade for a still-good QB. If we have some 42-14 games I wonder if we'll get to see Love play a quarter or two. -
There was a point I was close to buying an old fridge to rig up a curing room to make charcuterie, but then I realized nobody else but me would be eating it. The charcuterie fridge bags are great if you want to experiment and just try it, but too expensive if you want to make it more of a hobby. They're really not for dry-aging, though, or at least overkill.

Weird binance took a test deposit I made a few days ago (which still doesn't show up in my bank account), but now bigger deposits of $1000 are all failing. Despite the higher fees I'm tempted to go back to Coinbase. It's WAY more user-friendly, anyway.
-
Clearly you're going to have to buy a wine fridge and convert it to age your own steaks. It's really not much of a process.
-
Karl Malone going to the Lakers made all the difference.
-
Coinbase fees are a little higher than Binance, mostly.
-
Just pulled everything out of Coinbase and will be switching to Binance, but will need a lot of Youtube videos to figure out how Binance works. It also double-deposited, so I'm glad I started with test money. Really hesitate to move things around on Fidelity for my real stocks. I'm really just selling low, as they've mostly all lost the big gains they made from January. But with two more money giveaways along with a likely increase to the corporate tax, I'd like to move into something more recession-resilient or betting on the downward trend. Just what that'll be, I don't know yet.

Stupid that some people would act as if a player owes them anything just because they watch the games. Funchess didn't need to justify his decision in the first place.
