    Rent Vs. Buy housing

    Not the greatest image because I had to chop it up from a PDF to redact it. The $599.87 is a lender credit. Edit: The loan we locked in, for comparison. Points are at the bottom left. Wife and I both have 805 credit scores (not sure how/why they're exactly the same) and our only...

    I kind of think the fact that someone like Joan couldn't let go, and had to go back to doing "something" is kind of an argument that the Coke ad is Don's creation once heading back to McCann. Don isn't just going to be satisfied as a hippy or farmer. He IS an Ad Man.

    ^ What Phazael said. The last few drafts have taught me that QB talent isn't going to start suddenly get better. I mean, fucking Mariota and Winston were the top 2 picks in the entire draft. That's pathetic. Blake Bortles and Manziel were the top two taken last year. If you find a...

    Good call. We did pay points. We would've had a 3.375% rate (30 year fixed) without them though, which is still lower than the 3.99 he got or 4.5% that he mentioned for 30 year.

    One coachwaslifetime banned. If a lifetime is about 11 months. Williams was suspended in March 2012, and the suspension lifted in February 2013. He's coaching for the Rams right now. The NFL is a clusterfuck under Goodell.

    I could absolutely see mine doing that. She's this crotchety old woman. She's amazing to have on your side because she won't hesitate to bitch at someone, but it scares me a bit if she ends up crossing the line on something "on our behalf" without consulting us. Anyway, we got our appraisal...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I don't think it was involving himself with Cersei, it was getting Tommen to sign off on him as Lord of Winterfell. He's getting his claims legitimized by whoever happens to be King at the time. Cersei has no real power anymore outside of what everyone allows her to have.

    That SWOT analysis was fucking amazing. Almost jerk-off scene good. I really want someone to zoom in on those so I can read them all. Only ones I caught were under Opportunities, "Fuck Gina" and "Grief - Threesome with Gina and Blaine's Hot Mom?" and Blaine read those two.

    Some of these elites are a real bitch. I can't remember where they're at exactly, but Odin casts death (60 countdown timer version) at the start and I couldn't make it in time. Then there was one (I think Walse castle) with a main boss plus 3 underlings that all cast blizzara. The damage output...

    Ugh, that post summarizes pretty much the entire process for me. It's not the process so much that bothers me (I see it every day with my job), it's the complete lack of transparency with it.

    My wife and I are hoping to close in the next 2 weeks, but I'd say that yes we would consider one. I'm assuming you can hop on Zillow or somewhere else and see it, so you probably like it enough to look at. We went into it looking at houses we had no intentions of buying just to get a good idea...

    Apparently there have been 21 squandered 3-1 series leads. Caps now own 5 of them (I said 25% above, so almost). Backstrom is a regular season beast, but disappears in the playoffs. I don't know at this point. Do you get rid of him? It might be worthwhile to try and shop him around...

    Yeah, it's a giant pain in the ass. Luckily you can just run the first two battles for orbs and not worry about mastery after the first time through. I'm convinced the 2nd one drops black orbs more often, but reddit seems to think they're all the same.
