Congrats on the 420th post.fishlessman said:WeberWho said:My wife: "How many more commercials is Joe Namath going to be in?"
Me: "How do you know who Joe Namath is? Was he a guest on Full House when you watched it as a kid?"
My wife: "Wasn't he a NBA player?"

my newest fridge is around a 1975, the older one is maybe 1940 and has no bulb which i guess solves a major problem Unplugged a ca1980 fridge and the bill went down $30/mo. New one is half that.

ten years from now i could show him the old pvc drain from the kitchen sink i just rebuilt, its in the crate with all the other pvc fittings. funny thing is the prior owner glued a piece on one of the fittings that was leaking maybe 20 years ago. will see if the new stuff holds up, it seems they changed the pvc cement again and it doesnt seem they changed it in a good way

I don’t understand your comment about this being a racket, as in there is something inherently nefarious or unethical about this. We all pay taxes to fund public education. Government dictates what they deliver. This isn’t a profitable service, it’s not a restaurant trying to change you for meals you may or may not eat.thetrim said:

That might make it easier for you to comprehend.Private school is a choice, an option. Some are profit-oriented, some are not. Wide range there, but they’re all a choice, an alternative to public school. Just like taxes supporting public schools don’t go away regardless of what the schools are able to deliver (eg pandemic conditions), this school is saying they need their $ to keep the lights on, cost of choosing them and signing up.

I'm pretty sure these guys know each other outside the forum and are just messing with each other. I wouldn't bother with the encouragement.

Thanking whoever was looking over me this morning as my rear left truck tire had a blowout just seconds after exiting the highway. I felt the rear end get squirrely when exiting the off ramp and knew I didn't have much time as the tire wasn't happy. Not knowing the area that well my best bet was to get off the main road as it had no shoulder and constant traffic on it. In that split second my wife goes, "Look Discount tire!" The very first exit off the highway. I threw my truck in neutral and coasted the best I could into the parking lot.
That tire could have blown anywhere the previous 15 miles going 70 mph on the highway but it held off until the exit ramp and not even a half block from a tire shop that I could roll into. I'm feeling very thankful right now.

Absolutely correct @Legume, it’s our choice. Check out public school rankings in Louisiana and then you’ll see why the choice is as an easy one. There are 5 private catholic elementary schools going pre-k thru 8th. Cost separation between the 5 is about $500 annually.

That’s the choice, right? Keep the kids in private school or bounce them to public.

When we were house shopping one of my wife's co-workers said "You'll pay for school, it'll be tuition or mortgage/taxes, but you'll pay for it." We're paying tuition (and I'd happily jump at your $8k/kid), because we bought in an area that isn't zoned for great schools. If we were in a better zoned area in our county, our home price would probably be 1.5-2 times higher, and if we were one county over, in one of the best districts in the country, it would probably be 3x higher.ColbyLang said:

I'm not posting the above video, I'm posting it for the commercial that starts it off. These guys are about as enthusiastic as our friend in Chicago, and I don't remember this particular brand being mentioned before.“The best way to execute french cooking is to get good and loaded and whack the hell out of a chicken."

Regarding sports figures, I, the ass**** I was with, and some other guy got into an elevator in Philadelphia, and **** started chatting with him, asked for a picture with him, and then started blah-blaring his life story. The guy hurried off in the lobby, I guess it was Wayne Gretzky. I was clueless.

@Botch my assessment of the above commercial is that they can't hold a candle to @dmchicago nd his enthusiasm. I know he is in sales but he puts those guys to shame.
