First box of parts from Summit Racing arrived. New oil pan. Can’t wait to build the new engine, block is currently getting a dip and hone.
Body shop sent me a picture of the painted cowl. They are waiting for lower humidity to paint the body. Said they won’t send pics of the body, I have to come see it in person.

We do a decent amount of work in MI and I'm hearing this a lot, from people who hate Trump...they won't vote for Trump and they would have voted for Biden, and now will sit at home. It's a "Biden is fucking my people (nonsense, I know), so I guess Trump will fuck all of you now." Yes, it makes zero sense but there's a lot of browns that can swing MI and it's a real worry. I still thing Biden is looking solid but that war could be what swings this thing...
This is why I believe the conspiracy theory that Russia and Iran colluded to get Hamas to attack when they did.
Distraction from Ukraine and upsets the political system in the US.

Burgum = boring
Plus categories
- makes dotard’s eyebrows look normal
- sure to carry N Dakota and it’s 3 electoral college votes that have gone R since 1968
- can’t possibly add any drama to the campaign
- homogenizes the ticket with weird old white guys to solidify the R brand and not confuse the coalition of white nationalist, racist, tradwife, confederate heritage, bathroom monitors

Sure, it might be "standard operating procedure" to buy stories and not run them for whatever reason. I don't believe that part is inherently illegal. Unethical, perhaps, but not against the law. The illegality is on Trump (and Cohen and others) for trying to conceal how the payments were handled and how they were accounted for.
Well that and the fact that Pecker testified the reason Trump wanted it done was not to keep it From Baron and Melania but because of the election which means that it wasn't a personal favor it was a campaign contribution. The fact that Trump never repaid it reinforces this.

Following up on the previous post above….
Cody Pools called me today. They are paying for core sample testing on every pool they built with concrete from that specific subcontractor. They built around 200 pools with that company’s concrete and are core testing all of those pools, including mine at $8000 per test. So far they’ve tested 20 pools in that group and all 20 have been found to have ASR. All 20 are being demolished and rebuilt.
That particular concrete business has now gone bankrupt and their insurance company has stopped paying for those core samples and pool rebuilds. Cody Pools’ insurance company has now taken over paying for it all, probably while fighting with the concrete company’s insurance.
The core sampling is moving slow and they probably won’t get to mine until late this year, unless cracks develop before then. Cody assumes me the insurance money is there to rebuild every one of those 200 pools that are likely affected. But I’m worried about policy limits running out before they get to mine. Hopefully they can subrogate some of that from the concrete company’s insurance to decrease the chances of that.
Good times ahead. Guess I’ll hold off on building the covered patio next to the pool. Gonna start a list of all the things I’ll do different on the second one.
Happy for you that things are moving.

Has anyone in these attorneys' sphere of influence bothered to tell them what happens when just writing down "legal reimbursements" on an expense report is validated now?
Bought a hooker? Totally fine, reimbursed my attorney who paid her in cash
Bought a kilo of blow? Totally fine, reimbursed my attorney who paid him in cash
Had somebody killed on contract? Totally fine, reimbursed my attorney who paid the assassin in cash.
I cannot wrap my head around how this is an actual defense strategy. Surely they can some up with something better. This is like bad plot device left outta the script, from Lethal Weapon 2
This is the plot to Breaking Bad.

Troph. What do you mean insurance has already exhausted their payouts. Like there was a “ pool’ of money and it’s all gone now?
Feel bad for these peeps. It’s gotta suckI'll answer. See below
On 4/13/2024 at 5:42 PM, TexEx15 said:Insurance companies are denying a lot of these claims now under a silica exclusion.
- The silica exclusion was apparently written into the policies to prevent medical claims for lung damage due to inhaling silica dust during construction. Apparently they think the wording is broad enough to deny Alkali Silica Reaction (ASR) claims since Silica is in the name.
- There are usually multiple parties involved. The Builder or general contractor carries general liability policy to be able to get permits and build things and then the supplier that is subcontracted to pour the gunnite or shotcrete. Many pool builders are now denying claims and saying it was the installer's fault. I bet the next step is the installers go after the aggregate suppliers.
- The insurance policies usually have coverage limits.
- Not an expert but the difference between gunnite and shotcrete is that gunnite is sand based and shotcrete is aggregate based. Gunnite requires about 10% fly ash and Shotcrete about 25% to lower the pH of the mix to avoid ASR. One of them is mixed in the truck and the other is mixed as it is shot out of the hose. I think shotcrete is the latter. Again, not an expert. That shotcrete requires more fly ask could be a contributing factor.

Yeah, I think it's some kinda work/safety outfit. I doubt there's any oilfields near Kent, OH.
In a master stroke of irony, would have been nice if one of students at Kent State opened fire on Kyle's fascist ass.
Also, the fuck with the security detail guy rolling down the window? Not that any of those students looked threatening but first rule of rolling out of a hostile area is keep the fucking windows up. Get in the car, buckle in so you're harder to pull out and 3rd-roll up the windows/lock doors. First fucking thing they teach you in Mexico. This guy's making tiktok clips while exposing the vehicle occupants. Appropriate that his security detail is as stupid as Kyle, I suppose.
Kyle rolled down the window for his video. He wanted to talk to the 8 protestors.

The sad part is he is the one that published the video and all it shows is that 8 people came out to give him the bird. He's trying to prop up his relevance, but only relevant because he killed people and even then he gets like 8 protesters.
We shouldn't post about him here until he is in jail, beat up or dead.

BUT: It does say that the Dukes are aiming to corner the market, and yet W&V were selling (at the start of trading) so many shares that, despite the Dukes and everyone else buying, the price actually started to fall before the real crop report was read. Which means W&V were selling, and later covering, a fuckton of shares.
It's implied that they ended up with a substantial portion of the market when they covered.
I disagree, The Dukes ended up with a substantial portion of the market but they overpaid and when they go to deliver to grocery stores or whatever they will not recoup their investment.
EDIT: It's also implied that the Dukes bought on margin (a loan) and the assets they bought were valued at less than what they borrowed and the lender called the loan and demanded cash since the collateral (the commodity) was not worth what they owed.
