    Sadly, both are on the verge of being crippled. Anyone who has ever watched Joe Biden has probably had at least some concern that he’s not all there. But nothing can be done about that.

    Wisconsin?!? He escapes Kansas and takes off and is like, whoa, too cold here, gotta turn around, and that's how he gets to Louisiana/Texas?

    @mark said in Sous Vide peeps!: @Mik interesting. I thought overcooking made it rubbery. huh. Learn something new everyday! At least it wasn't an expensive slab of Norwegian Salmon. I will try higher temp the time. It can be either one, but that's my experience. I sous vide some salmon a week or two ago and was not crazy about the outcome. It was kind of mushy. Grilling it hot prevents that. I think sous vide is great for vegetables and especially for meats that can take a very long cook. Had beef ribs from sous vide once that were fantastic. They cooked for about three days.

    @89th said in Can someone explain "oligarchs" to me.: Russia and (Brazil?) are some of the only countries where the top 0.01% have more than the bottom 80%. We'll get there, too.

    I don’t understand why he hated Asian people so much. I guess some people don’t have love in their hearts like I do, and like Will Smith does.

    @LuFins-Dad said in Is this a stupid idea?: In 2 years, Luke’s going to be living off campus for a year as the school he’s at doesn’t have enough dorm housing for seniors and as the school continues to grow, that will spread into the juniors as well. We’re currently spending about $12K a year on room and board. Houses are currently renting around the campus at about $800 per bedroom and 3 bedroom houses are selling for roughly $200K. Would it be completely stupid to take the room and board we’ll be paying that year anyway and put it and a bit from savings as a down payment? Mortgage would be about $1200, so $800 per month for the other two bedrooms would cover the mortgage and utilities. After Luke graduates, that’s 3 bedrooms at $2400 per month, now you’re covering maintenance… Now college kids, yeah, I get it, but I can trust Luke for the one year, and keep the rental restricted to Seniors going forward… Get 5 years appreciation and sell… I would be looking for a 2 bedroom, ground floor condo about 5 to 10 miles away from the college.
