    That makes just how many “greatest” con jobs he thinks there are out there deserving the superlative? Normally it is limited to one, but in Trump’s universe I guess there are a multitude.

    Heard on the radio they can be used at 18 for certain purposes, just like I envisioned.

    So a few notes so far through the process: The Good It’s been very simple. Paperwork took 3 minutes. I was told that they are typically more expensive than a dealer, but less than Carmax. I tried looking up similar miles and aged Genesis within 100 miles. I only found two less expensive. One was a 90 minute drive away and was a coupe version for $200 less, and the other was one of those shady shops that buy at auction and repair. CarMax, on the other hand, was about $2K more for similar cars. My mechanic told me this morning that while the inspection process isn’t full proof, he’s never seen a major issue, and the small stuff Carvana took care of easily… The Bad - I realized we had a commitment for my pickup time on Sunday, so I tried to shift it later in the afternoon. When I did that, all of the slots for the afternoon were already taken AND the system released my earlier reservation, making Monday my first option. I am trying to finagle a Sunday slot… While I’m not financing, I was surprised to see the rate offer. It was at 7.6. My credit score is top tier though it does have some usage issues with co-signing Luke’s loans. I read the bank they use is pretty high. I will definitely secure my own financing if buying something more expensive in the future. It looks like their extended warranty coverage through SilverRock has mixed reviews. At $80 per month, I might forego that…

    Oh this reminds me a bit too of that show Alone where contestants are dropped into a remote area of a forest and it's remarkable how fast they get lean and skinny when all they drink is water and all they eat is fish and maybe a rabbit or two.

    The silver lining is if the videos ever surface of D’Oh and his sheep friends he can laugh and call it a deep fake.

    @Axtremus said in I liked this quote: Ask the question the other way: can you think of marriages where the couples are "happy" and yet not viewed as "good" by third parties? The royals, the gays, the interracial, the interfaith, the old+rich marrying the young+beautiful, etc. If I wanted to play word games I'd be logged into Squaredle

    We're going back next Thanksgiving week, if there's another launch I hope it's during the day and I can get closer. At 20 miles away the sound took a good 1.5 minutes or so to reach me!

    He really should. Especially since he’s not sending his kid there but is still paying for it in real estate.

    I eat a lot of fish, and I've found that you can save a fair chunk if you get it on offer - our local Stop and Shop regularly sells it at about 40% off as it starts to approach its sell-by date, and it's still perfectly fine at that point.
