@RRP's current events thread just recently got nuked.  Friday morning farewell.  Lots of good information was in there.  

It was a treat seeing some clowns appearing together on pre Friday.

I always enjoy being called a libtard on pre Friday!

A couple of new ones surfacing too. Seems they have a cunning plan to change public opinion by trolling a BBQ forum.

I guess the last few posts earned Dislike from folks who admit they are the clowns, although I didn't name names?

I finished up the fork straightening last night.  It's dead on now.   Also worked on my cabinets until I realized I need to grab my dado blades from the shop at home.

Getting on a waitlist.  Looking to step up my horological game.

I first thought horological was pertaining to prostitution, but I'm glad I was wrong after I looked it up.  Nice watch!

That pic isn't from today figuring your watch is at least accurate to the correct day-never mind the time of day...

I have it on good authority that rich folks don’t wear a watch to keep up with the date or time. It’s simply a reflection of their money 👍

Nope, it is from today.  They only have case demos so time dates are all wrong.  Have to be on a waitlist.  Could be 12 months!

In the meantime, hanging out at the Colorguard Classic PGA tournament.

Ouch, that is just mean.  I don't have @rrp money.  That is not flashy money, this doesn't even scratch the surface of money in watches 🤣

With this I definitely agree. There are few that do.

You might think but you would be wrong my friend. His money is legendary.

Friends,  we are on the bend before the home straight or wherever two thirds of 400 metres is because we have 12 games left, roughly.   A glance at the PL table affirms a sense of symmetry with 2 teams in title contention and 2 hovering near the trap door of relegation.  The remaining 16 teams are evenly distributed along the ‘player budget’ axis which generally predicates the final league position.  The concepts of skill and determination were recognised as a risk to revenue and therefore eradicated long ago. 

We start tonight; Southampton v Norwich, the hosts have surged to 10th and accrued sufficient points to withstand an inevitable tailing off of form but stay up.  Mission accomplished.  The Canaries, despite recent good form, just look out of their depth.  2-1

Saturday; 

Leeds v Spurs, a couple of calamity clubs collide in crumbling condition. Wheels are departing each corner of both wagons - imagine a spider jettisoning it’s legs, but this legs are wheels and the spider is a wagon. 1-2

Brentford v Newcastle, meh 0-2.  The Bees are crumbling and the dirty money Toon are climbing free. Meh, again.

Brighton v Aston Villa,  the filthy Seagulls finally failed to draw last week and got whacked - yay!  Hard to tell what’ll come next and Villa are a curate’s egg at the moment.  Come on Stevie G, sort it out.  1-1, though.

Palace v Burnley, one of the season’s least glamorous games but there’s a sub-plot.  The visitors have left their traditional late wake-up to the season very, very late and are now on top form.  The Eagles clicked and scored four mid-week, albeit against parlous Watford.  Banana skins aplenty.  2-2

Man Utd v Watford, as hit and miss as Utd are they can’t hold a candle to the rotten faltering Hornets. Run of the mill home win; 2-0

Everton v Man City, Super Frank Lampard is working hard to lose that prefix because the Toffees remain flaccid.  City, stung by Spurs last week, will not hold back.   Could be messy but might be just a narrow away win as Everton go all Custer. 0-3

In the Championship Stoke welcome Bournemouth who are in prime form and hungry for points to secure promotion. The Potters less so and my guess is they’ll rest key players in advance of their trip to Palace in the Cup mid-week.  @Eoin and I have a side bet on that match and after using some of my contacts to hack his phone, you really want Palace to win that.   

Sunday;

West Ham v Wolves, vital test of each others’ mineral here for 5th or 6th place.  I feel the hammers are petering out a tad while Wolves will find a way. 1-2

Elsewhere Liverpool and Chelsea will battle out the Carabao Cup.  No, I don’t know either. 

Liverpool take the Cup.  They won't let an American walk off the field victorious.

@Ozzie_Isaac If you get a "cheap" Rolex (under 5K), all the people in the know will think - look at that guy that could only afford the cheap ones.  Everyone else will be torn between thinking you're rich AF or it's a fake.

You're better off buying a cheap fake of a good Rolex, not too fancy, not gold colored.  Bonus points - it won't hurt when you lose it and take that money you save and spend it on horse feed.

JohnInCarolina

The thing people don't appreciate is... a Rolex is an investment.  The best ones appreciate in value.  This is something that can be a family heirloom.  It's the sort of thing that your dad's friend from Nam shoves up his ass, for years, so the Cong can't get to it and rob you of your birthright.   It's the sort of thing you hand down to a son, so that he can give it to his son, so that your grandson can finally pawn it some night when he's going through oxy withdrawal and really needs that fix...

Dudes on the street corners of NYC can get you some great deals.  Should you get to the orient you will find all the watches you want.

I think you would have to be in the know to look at anyones watch
