    Let’s just say there was plenty of strong swearing. Stronger than you can imagine. Russian is very rich in that way.

    That was a cool trip down memory lane. My experience with muscle cars was a 1970 Pontiac GTO, although it was not the "Judge RamAir" version. White exterior with a light blue interior. Bought it used in 1972 for $2500 with around 21,000 miles on it. A 400 c.i. engine with a 4 barrel holley carb and an automatic turbo hydrostatic tranny that would lay rubber in all 3 gears. That car was the fastest I ever drove a car at 122 mph on the interstate. I loved that car.

    @jolly said in Electronics & Whiskey: Yeah, but did you use it with electronics? I was drunk in the lab plenty of times.

    Healthcare and education don’t scale as well as manufacturing so it would be natural for them to grow in employment relative to the other sectors. (See Baumol’s cost disease)

    You know, you would think the schools would invite parents to attend a class or two or give a special meeting showing parents the materials and the topics that they are discussing. You would think they would be proud of their curriculum and want to share it….

    We do the same (kinda)... we make pulled chicken in the InstaPot. Add a bunch of salsa, chicken breasts, then after a few hours, mix (shred) it with an electronic mixer (normally used when baking). Keeps things easy...

    The data only includes 200 cities in the US. I'd like to see a broader list.

    That's Omicron news. If that turns out to be a Nothingburger, back up it goes.

    Interesting. I would have never think that Tel Aviv would be the most expensive.

    @jon-nyc said in Three From Thomas: I listened to an hour or so of oral arguments and was surprised he asked a question. From what I’ve read that’s becoming more common.

    @mik said in Hi-Tunnel: Interesting. The runoff control, if it is cisterned, could allow for better moisture control and more efficient water usage. You can do the same thing on a smaller scale with raised beds and PVC hoops over the beds.
