  1. You can get up over $300k on a 28 foot with twin 450R’s. We were out sea trialing a boat in SWFL and one just absolutely dog walked us in the intercoastal. They were easily running up around 75-80 on a 28 foot tritoon. The salesman was telling us all about them.
  2. I went to a faith based school and outside of required chapel (which I managed to never attend) didn’t feel faith based at all. I also was not looking for anything having to do with faith back then, so I never found it at a Southern Baptist backed college. My daughter at UGA easily found a large group that she goes to church with and that attend on campus ministry events. Even her good friends that aren’t churchgoers by any stretch attend with her on occasion and are extremely supportive. Ultimately, if your faith is a priority you can find what you are looking for on most campuses, especially large one where there are people looking for the same thing.
  3. Ate at Bavette’s this week, have to say I prefer the Chicago location. Something about it being in the Park MGM and where it was located inside just didn’t fit. We ate at Beauty and Essex again and it was great like always. Also ate at Amaya (took over Holstein’s spot) at the Cosmo and it was excellent for what it was.
  4. I pay $100 a night for someone to stay at the house overnight, walk/feed the dogs, etc. We use high school / college kids that we know so I’m fine overpaying them. We also want them walked in the morning and late afternoon and let out at lunch, so I’m fine paying a little extra for all that.
  5. After reading this whole thread for some reason, I’m putting down a deposit. I’ve been looking for a truck to haul trash, potting soil, recycling, etc and haven’t found anything I’m willing to pay for. I can pull trailers with my other vehicles so this is more about needing an open bed at the moment. I will also enjoy having another vehicle that it bothers my high falutin wife to ride around in assuming it makes it to production.
  6. What do you consider comfortable/pleasant? My kids swam through the winter when we had our place in SWFL, but I avoided it other than being out knee deep while fishing. I think water temps were usually mid/high70’s in December. I don’t think you will find much warmer than that in the US.
  7. Sanibel/Captiva and the north end of Anna Maria Island above Pine Island are tops for us. Owned on one, was buying on the other when the hurricane hit last fall, may stick with vacationing for a while. Outside of those two, it would be the northern keys or the beach areas around Charleston and then the St Simon’s area. I’m not a fan of the Atlantic beaches but the towns are worth a visit.
  8. Yes, they are one of the few state schools we looked at that go as far as they do to protect in-state candidates. They also make it incredibly difficult to convert to residency status once you are there. We’re buying a house, moving her residency, moving her to claiming herself, etc and it’s still a crap shoot whether they will change her undergrad status. It should make a difference for law school though so at least there may be some benefit.
  9. UGA is already way down that path. Their out of state acceptance rate has been super low and keeps going lower each class. Honors college acceptance for out of state is even worse. Most of my daughter’s friends are Atlanta kids that are going for free. It drives her nuts when they talk about it because most didn’t want to go there and are going for free while we tote most of the cost of her going.
  10. Golf, the cutoff to make a DIII or NAIA team is doable for a female that picks it up late and has some natural ability that will put in the time.
  11. Just renewed a lease with USDA, when do I get my check for the remainder of the lease? I have a really good client that has really long-term leases on courthouses, post offices, etc be interesting to see what he hears. Did it ever occur to anyone to actually have a plan with reasonable goals that could be targeted rather than just widespread chaos and see what’s left? Who am I kidding, what sense would that have made?
  12. Most of the free services are income limited and not that user friendly which (along with rapid refunds) drives a lot of lower income people to H&R Block where they get f-ing fleeced. The free system the IRS built was actually a decent start towards what should be standard which is a government offered filing service. They have your data, click through, agree with it, file, should not be this difficult. As far as your premise that it should have been done a decade ago, okay so what. It was completed and it worked and the R’s have been after it since day one as an unapproved use of funds. My rep keeps sending us emails about how he is helping us, I keep emailing him back telling him he’s not helping me. We’re not here to do everyone’s work, a free service should absolutely be mandatory and would actually help us.
  13. He might have to go to KY if he really wants to find it.
  14. I don’t know, if we’re doing a draft Burchett, Ogles, and Blackburn have to be near the top of the list federally and I can’t imagine Faison, Sexton, and their bunch wouldn’t be high up the state draft list.
  15. And the next grift begins, make a bunch of noise about the 22nd knowing it will not be changed, attack the legislature for not changing it over the next 3 years, run him as a VP on a ticket with a figurehead top of the ticket, and the sideshow continues.
