  1. It was cold and the rain hit one day and the day of the race was hot. Dress in layers and bring a good poncho.
  2. If companies hate unions so much, there is a very easy way to get rid of them - invest more in your employees. Higher wages, decent insurance (until we can get universal) and some kind of profit sharing / bonuses for the employees and less so for the top brass.
  3. I agree about Friday. We were all three days, all day. However, we sat mainly straight and had the Velocity lounge to hide in when it got hot.
  4. Not sure how much they were when they were first released, but Costco had some not too long ago. Yes - general admission is the grass areas. Advice: wear very comfortable shoes for walking. You will walk a lot. I’ll leave parking advice to others - just bring your patience. If you go all three days - watch the cars from different spots - especially Friday. Wear sunscreen.
  5. He’s a Trump supporter. That’s his agenda.
  6. You’re not exactly the Democrats target audience - and like me (46, white, and live in the neighborhood where gov wheels went door knocking) - will not get much, if any effort at all.
  7. They made a decent counter offer. However - asking the company to never automate is a non-starter. The strike is now a reason to automate faster. They made a decent counter offer. However - asking the company to never automate is a non-starter. The strike is now a reason to automate faster.
  8. Sue happy Paxton and Gov wheels aren’t on the side of unions, so this could get messy quick here.
  9. How does this work in Texas? Texas is right to work. Don’t come to work - fired and replaced. Is crossing the picket line the only thing stopping the port from hiring new people at 35% over what they were paying? People are hungry, supposedly.
  10. Too bad it didn’t kill off more.
  11. Why are these people so fucking stupid and when you tell them they are wrong, they double down?? This image is floating around FB with the caption “FB keeps deleting this…”. No shit!!! It’s an AI image. Fucking morons.
  12. How can we help make this fail?
  13. On the sign front - I live in the suburb of Houston where Abbot went door knocking. There are three houses with Trump signs up that I’ve seen so far (main roads in and out and some side streets).
  14. Announcing it before the weekend would have been polite. Maybe letting him drive Austin. Hell, just making the announcement official after the race would have been better than what he got.
  15. Wow. What a shit send off. Not surprising for Red Bull.
  16. This John Deere thing is also Trump picking and choosing winners / losers. Almost all of the manufacturering for them and others is done out of country. CAT has maybe one or two foundries here. If Trump blanket raises tariffs - all machine costs will go up. None of them are American made. They are American assembled.
  17. It’s RedBull. They suck and have always been a shit team to drivers not named Vettle or Max.
  18. I saw that. The guy that posted is a good photographer and has quality F1 content.
  19. The 1997 ski team house threw some killer parties. I tried out for the team, but I was not good enough. Great group though and wake boarded with some of them a couple years later. Nice to see the team is still going.
  20. I ran mine for 10 hours and didn’t notice it on my bill.
  21. Can we get back on track?? Are there exit polls for early voting?
  22. I’d like to hear a nice “THROUGH GOES HAMILTON!!”
  23. Remember - Biden is still in office and has immunity. There’s nothing stopping him or the democrats from just as much fuckery in response to anything the Republicans / Trump pull. Prior to him stepping down, I wouldn’t think the Democrats had the back bone to actually fight. Now, maybe they do.
  24. Hamilton said something along the lines of the way they were asking him to drive was not going to work.
