  1. FSPTX - Fid Select Technology has .71 expense ratio and had this top 10 as of June30th: Apple 21.2% Microsoft 19.5% Adobe 3.9 Salesforce 3.4 Facebook 3.1 (Below all above 2%) NVIDIA MasterCard Visa PayPal Amazon
  2. Always seems this way with Texas’ most populated county on the edge 36hrs out.
  3. Apropos of nothing: Saw XOM is getting booted off the Dow for SlaesForce.com. Leaving only CVX 92 year run beginning as Standard Oil. 9 short years ago was world’s most valuable company at $400Bil.
  4. “Scrupulous mask wearing embiggins the smallest man” Dr Jebediah Fauci - 1796
  5. Found this Nov18 gem cellared at remote work location C, I’d forgotten all about. 3 michelob ultras from unknown origin will remain the last of the cellar. Error 404:Drinkware Not Found
  6. That damn delicatessen that is last time they screw up one of my orders. (Cooh-STANza)
  7. Got the same from Denbury. Delisted from NYSE. Massive layoffs. Chapter 11 protection. But at least I won’t have to look at that 99.3% loss on my portfolio. Thanks for the hot stock pick, dear old dad. DNR - do not resuscitate.
  8. Same. I have opportunities to do some virtual swim logs or cumulative distance totals for worthy charities, but can’t find the motivation. Losing a lot of training motivation / momentum I had in April, May, June.
  9. Haven’t followed the HR goings-on or budget reduction news for XOM. Every article or online mention references that same labor relations email as the source, which ends “Please let us know if you have any questions and would like to discuss or bargain.” Lots of other boards and CEOs have mentioned protecting the DIV at all cost in March, and many have ended up coating regardless. (While cutting work force, CapEX, OpEx, G&A also) Is this just a shot across the bow to have some G&A discussions with XOM’s petrochem unions? Don’t imagine “fuck your 401k. Protect the investors” as the first rattle out of the box plays will play well in the plants.
  10. It's those damn culottes you made him wear when he was five!
  11. I enjoy Martin House’s pickle beer when I see it. *ducks*
  12. Some good 2020 news - POTUS signed the great American outdoors act into law today. Establishing permanent funding from Gulf of Mexico and other other energy royalties into the Land and Water Conservation fund. If the government is going to take its bite at least it’ll be appropriated correctly going forward. Win for bipartisanship, win for outdoorsman. Small check for environmentalist and small check for O&G.

  14. Anyone still have any scheduled events on the books for 2020? Was scheduled to to do a little team Tri in Louisiana in September that got scrubbed last week. Not holding my breath for an October open water swim that’s been “pending registration due to COVID...” for months now.
  15. Another comparison: Black Tom Island explosion was estimated at 5.0-5.5 on Richter based on damage and distance from shockwave. Known munitions included one barge fully loaded w/ 100,000 lbs of TNT.
  16. Why is the communist wearing a traffic cone? Kramer: Huh? Well, it symbolizes our persecution. George: Then...shouldn't YOU be wearing the cone?
  17. News reported a fire works warehouse on that pier. Had a separate video from the water. ETA: ^ that view from the water
  18. Obviously a sign of Peak Oil [emoji849] https://mobile.twitter.com/musictimegroups/status/1290582444710793216
  19. These guys are pros. Why would you waste an out on bunting?!? I rAn THe nUmBerS!
  20. Quad City River Bandits have any pitching prospects?
  21. I assume Taysom Hill has the knee brace off is eligible, tan, rested, and ready after his latest injury redshirt and mission trip?
  22. This opens all sorts of range of offensiveness scenarios. Skoal sour apple in a clear plastic rocks glass with no napkin or foot long subway turkey lettuce diarrhea, toasted? Brings $60 worth of Long JS planks for the whole flight, but you all ready ate? Brought sbarro slices for your row, but then stores the greasy cardboard box(s) and his 20oz Sbarro spittoon (xtreme frost ice - winter green!) in the seat back.
