    @LuFins-Dad said in College Graduation Party?: @jon-nyc said in College Graduation Party?: Make it slightly embarrassing. Call it a ‘look out, world’ party. Just a little cringe? Okay to actually do the cookout myself? Could just do burgers and hotdogs, but I would prefer to do Fajitas… If everybody likes fajitas, why not? Was at a Mexican place the other day and ordered standard fair for me, a Hawaiian Fajita. Chicken, ham, shrimp, pineapple, onions and peppers with fajita seasoning.

    Looks like that's a baby too... aren't they suppose to get like 20-40 feet in length? That seems to be a foot or two based on the smaller creatures around it. Maybe they said that in the audio, I didn't have audio on.

    @Klaus said in Why are car headlights so blindingly bright now?: I can leave on the floodlight all time without blinding anyone because the car automatically makes a hole in its light cone where other cars are. Maybe that is what I read about that the US has finally accepted and will allow in cars now sold in the US.

    @Axtremus said in Better wine, more lamb to eat. I like this idea.: @Jolly said in Better wine, more lamb to eat. I like this idea.: If all imports ceased tomorrow, could a wine afficiondo survive on American wines? Don't see why not. I suspect, if put to a double-blind taste testing, the wine aficionados can consistently tell American wines apart from foreign wines. I can.

    There is something to be said about being a decent person. Not the biggest winner, not the coolest guy, not the person with the most money or the person with the hottest chicks. While playing against the woke mime Donald Trump turns out to be the ultimate post modernist icon. Good for him. To his credit he never said he was anything different.

    I bought one years ago in Cancun. We were on vacation there but my wife was getting her MBA at the time and all she did was study. We bought a timeshare. $5,000. Never went there, never used it. They charged us some money for "whatever" and we never paid. We got a blanket from the deal. It's around the house somewhere and it's called the "$5,000 blanket."

    Possibly. Here is the dashboard. If you go back a level in the breadcrumbs and click on CAROL you can build your own query. I started to try but decided I wasn't sure how they classified "commercial" so I decided to let you have fun! You can thank me later. https://www.ntsb.gov/safety/data/Pages/monthly-dashboard.aspx

    @Renauda Wow!!! Glad that you were okay. It is weird how some things happen, and if you were there a second/day/week earlier or later, the outcome would have been very different.

    @Mik said in This is not right: As I said, I have no issue with reducing the federal workforce but it doesn't have to be done in a capricious and unnecessarily harmful way. I've said this before more than once, but I find the fact that Elon Musk appears very much to enjoy doing this to people really distasteful.

    I believe he was a former Navy SEAL or something too. Sometimes there's too much oxygen begin given to internet trolls.
