I bought one of these in college and used the hell out of it and kept after Ifinished. Handy as hell when you are cooking for one. I got my money out of it considering I probably paid $5. My pre build a gigant grille for customers days.

Looks up the ticker on grip....

Thanks, that has been a while ago.

I couldn't remember how many but I knew it was a lot in a fold out case/holder.

VLO up 5% for the day

For a second thought you had a giant radioactive act on the bottom left.

You think with the money Nvidia is making on AI now they just put the "C" team or even less on GPUs now?

Confuse people for the fun of it. Pick a unit of measure most people have no idea. Just to see if people are paying attention I tell them it's X rods or Varas. I could say chains but it's actually still used in some professions. My property survery was done in varas orignally.

I have a Dolmar chain saw which at one time was Sachs Dolmar. But now they've been bought out by someone else. It's an arborist saw which has a magnesium engine block making it a little lighter but same saw basically. I bought it mainly cause the closest saw shop sold a lot of them. Then they...

My useless info on how much power comes out of one. The '64 earthquake in Anchorage AK was huge, a 9.2 but when it hit it knocked boats off the Dow Chemical dock on the MS river halfway between Baton Rouge and New Orleans,. I know that's a massive quake but that's a long way away.

They could havd been walking around outside before it started., it didn't go back that far. But all of them got to where they could put their hands on the ground and keep them there.

Congrats now you have seen miles and miles of TX. My part of TX (21 counties) is all timber/trees and lakes, so it's pretty varied also have swamps in the southeast. I never spent much time in DFW other than going through it. I found the traffic in SA much better than Houston, and that was...

That looks pretty bad. I remember there was a big earthquake in Central America or South America and they were digging out people who were still alive for quite a while. That was decades ago. May have been Mexico, been a long time but seems like they were getting people out weeks later.

I'm of the non scientific opinion the area you were born in won't bother your weather wise as much as stuff does in other parts of the country. I am from where it's hot and very humid and the humidity doesn't bother me at all. When I used to go to Phoenix for work the heat didn't bother me at...

I noticed in the videos of the earthquake in the Philippines a while back all those people ran outside immediately and squated down and touched the ground. I guess they were used to it. They weren't running around screaming and little chance of falling over.

Remember in town to drive the TX way. 35 years ago TxDOT had an ad campaign that it didn't matter how fast someone was going your job was to move into the slow lane and let them pass even if they are going way over the limit. You are not a cop. I miss those ads on TV and billboards. Just...

When you get to SA imagine driving from Phoenix to SA in a Uhaul truck. The president of the company I worked for in SA weas in Phoenixc at their office there during 9/11 and the only vehicle he could get back was a Uhaul. Just think, SA is not even quite half way across TX going east to west...

Micron down 9%. How much before prices fall? Near 100%?

40 acres with mineral rights. Tinned trees and made momney on that. Cleand ups the property and sold it to come out slightly ahead. Kept mineral rights. Two fracking booms and a lithium buy later ranks pretty high in my best all time. Jobber construction calculator. Yeah the same is available...

40 yeaar olds without the ability to build a pc and still live at home.

I have no desire to buy one. But woowhoo my card came out near the top lol.

Ask someone who considers themself a semi pro electrician about 3 phase. Everyone puts their two cents in including the guy at home depot.

I have a pretty dark site. I think (not sure) a lot of these peole have invested very large sums into their rig with the scope, mount, camera and such and to them they want to see what it can do and don't live in the right spot for certain things. I know there's a huge industry of going...

Just ship your telescope to these people and pay a monthly fee for them to set it up and store it at a dark site that you have access remotely for imaging.

I thought I read somewhere the two of them were flying to an airshow. I flew from MS to MN and back on a private jet earlier this year, jet did not belong to me. Good ot know if we crashed and I died it was a rich persons problem. Not that I really would have cared.

All I remember is people sticking garfield dolls on their car window back in the day.

82F currently and we are under a heat advisory. I think they need to change it to heat and humidity advisory. Of cours the heat index later is listed at 115. But seems like anyone in the south should know it's going to be hot and humid in June consdidering it rained for 3 days straight. When I...

If someone says "bless your heart" to someone it's not a compliment at all. Don't be shocked to hear people say ma'am. Bat viewing when they leave the caves close to dark. One in Bracken which is just up I-35 as you leave the city limits going north. Natural bridge caverns are just a little...

I live landlocked in the national forest. I'm visiting my parents who live on 2.5 acres in a subdivision of 2.5 to 10 acres. Sitting in my room at their place at 2am I hear something outside. Grab the spotlight and open the back door. Within 10 yards of my bedroom window 4 bucks are chewing...

The Pearl River in MS has totally flooeded, it flows into the MS sound with the Pearl river, MS river and gulf coming together. Picayune, MS is flooded worse than they did with Katrina from the rain from that tropical storm. My parents live further up river and got maybe 3" which is not much but...

I'm sure you are already aware but San Antonio is heavily divided. I lived in a suburb adjacent to San Antionio. Very well off, very non minority, non exstent crime. Have the "talk" with your kids about being careful they don't get isolated suddenly with no options. Also there are things you...

I'm about to start a kill everything run. I'm sure it will work great to start. I'm also sure at some point I'll likely get to a pretty big sticking point.

Hence "kick the can". Anyone who would talk honeslty about the shape we are in and the pitfalls ahead would never get anywhere to the point they could actually take any steps at all.

Did someone say brick and mortar? I took a nap, did I sleep for a decade or more?

Cyclone sitting right on top of us. Just rain. I'm not sure when they changed from tropical storms to cyclones, or why.

I worked at McDonalds in the 80s and those things are mega hot if you get one that was just fried. I'm sure they will tone it down post coffee burn lawsuit. Seeing above, maybe not. Like lava for filing. I expect to see news someone ran their car off the road cause they got an apple pie and bit...

I keep reading that there is a goal of 2% inflation and the biggest impact is fed policy, but nothing on what the plan might be going forward, other than I assume up interest rates in the future.
