Had my first one done a couple months ago. Im 48. Family history of polyps and colon ca. 1 polyp that was not pre-cancerous. 5 years in from here on out. Very happy I did it. I talked to the MD and once a pre cancerous polyp forms it takes 3-7 years on average for it to 'possibly' turn in to stage 1 cancer. For my first 48 years, Im batting a thousand.
It's this exactly. Even if a few politicians see this, the majority wont or will not act. Congress needs to vote to move setting the budget and taxing its citizens to an appointed body of experts. I have always thought they need to move it to the fed and have fed set the budget, at a minimum. If there is a better solution, Im all for it but I cant see it. Congress wont do it because they wont be re-elected and the majority of the US population is too stupid (both left and right) to know something needs to be done. Better now than when the debt hits 50 trillion ( which is where I heard the shit will really hit the fan ).
Speaking of grass, which is best for sustained 100+F heat for months on end with little to no rain? I don't want Bermuda. Zoysia? St augustine is not the answer. I've lost it both in 2011 and 2022/2023. I'm looking to replace again. Preferably seeded with little watering required to start. Is there such a grass? Maybe I should develop one...
Chat GPT just told me this
The absence of a Speaker of the House is a significant disruption to the legislative process. It means that the House cannot pass any bills, and it also means that the House cannot investigate or impeach the president.
I just told my wife we can never sell our house now unless we buy the next one cash. I would be a fool to sell with my 2.99% rate. Its a no brainer for me and so many other households to stay put. 8.00% mortgage rate. What the fuck.
Gonna do a little buying and swing trading around the 200 day moving average and previous resistance level of 4200. Got my SPY limit order in. If I dont work on the day it hits, Ill change it and buy QQQ around that level instead. Looking for a 2%-4% gain. Worked well for me last year. Have yet to trade at all this year.
This. I tried to like the show in season 1 because I love the books. The more I thought about it after the season ended, the more I realized it just sucked shit and the choices they made were painful to watch. Season 2 is much better. I like the choices they have made since I now know there will be no faithful adaptation. Lowered expectations helps. Rand/Lanfear - thumbs up. Min/Matt - thumbs up. Liandrin story change - thumbs up. Any forsaken scene - thumbs up. The choice/character arc for Elayne - thumbs up. The only thing that still pisses me off is Moiraine and her story and screen time. She is a SIDE character. Quit making the show about her.
