Might be a good idea to submit oil samples for Blackstone lab for analysis. See if you've got wear in the motor. Also run compression tests.

I drank almost only Bordeaux for quite some time, but as I've gotten older I drink almost all red or white burgundy now. There's a lot more value to be had in chablis and beaujolais as well.
I did just score some '89 Chateau Palmer at a wine auction last week, which is a Christmas gift for my mom. We have a bit of sentimental attachment to the house.
+1 for chablis. nothing like a chilled one with some oysters

I agree they are basically equal in most aspects of the game (passing ability, decision making, durability, etc.) except running. As we’ve seen, the QB must be a legitimate threat to run the ball in this offense.
I too believe the transfer rumors which is one reason why I don’t think there would be any QB controversy. Shane is not the future here and everyone knows it. Think of the QB room next year. Shane doesn’t have a chance.
I tend to think we’ll see more QBs play as the year goes on but this stretch is so important, Sam will likely get all the work for consistency and confidence.
that is definitely not true.

I don't know all the ins/outs/whathaveyous, but the conventional wisdom on those is that the investment component is easily beaten with a couch-potato-type portfolio, especially considering the fees.
There is the advantage of tax-free loans, but there's something in it where you have to pay the piper, I just don't remember what it is.
I believe, also, that a portion of it (I believe part is considered an annuity and part paid-up life), is exempt from creditors, too. And there is an estate-planning aspect to it, as well.
I am given to understand that it can make sense in certain scenarios, particularly high-wealth people.

i straddle on this side of the fence. checked out some private "pension" plans the local banks offer here and its all these ultra-complex financial products intermingled with life insurance, with tax advantage components, growth components, and 100s of restrictions and stipulations.
doing some crude financial modeling, one's better off with a bog standard post-tax account assuming 6-8% earnings, and better liquidity.
like he said... insurance is insurance, investment is investment.

Why do all the marathon runners look like they are 50+ years old? He's 33. If you saw that man just walking around there is no way you'd think he was less than 40.
contrary to popular belief, black do crack.

There ya go. One unit, smoker/grill hybrid. If you’re spending money, might as well make it worth the investment.
jaysus that is a monster.
picked up the performer deluxe today. they only carry black - not the cool green, blue, or copper colored ones. then my colleague told me about the Napoleon grills. a french-named canadian company started by a german-named dude. it looks like they basically rip off Weber designs, but apparently they use better construction and manufacturing e.g. metals are thicker-gauge.

i have half a mind to eventually get their version of the bullet. some say its got functional improvements over the real WSM such as with double-doors, more modularity, etc
thoughts?

Fucking thing(s) goes in my yard, pisses off the dog, crawls up my car, etc
Don't think they're stray either. So I shouldn't kill the motherfucker. Is there any sort of effective cat repellent stuff to use?

Thessaloniki and Athens didn't feel special to me. Its about the olympus of antiquity and civilization but somehow from a tourist perspective I never got that feeling of awe and sense of place there. 14 days would stretch it personally speaking.
So if it was me, I'd hit up the islands and beaches.
If you want more than a bit of isolation, check out Hotel Citta dei Nicliani. We're heading up there in Spring to do literally nothing. And that'll be great.
Seafood is obviously good. Might consider hopping over to Cyprus, just to say youve been there.

I'm looking for a large butchers block for the kitchen to serve as chopping board, pastry kneading surface, whatever.
It needs not be a thick massive single plank, and not particular on the wood type, but needs to be dimensionally 80*60 in socialist units. and of course food-grade. type of wood doesn't matter - even bamboo is fine.
problem is retail blocks are typically 40*30 in size. tried looking at home supplies store for raw construction wood but the planks aren't proper dimension.
assuming I did find such a thing, and can plane or sand it myself...what should of treatment should I give it? teak oil or something? and I don't have any equipment to join pieces together. could I find some lumber mills or what?

Did the math....if I rode my road bike at a good clip for 1hr, and then dismounted and ran the rest of the way....he might pass me by the 2:01 mark...the crazy motherfucker

As a kid I guffawed when people say "they don't make em like they used to"....I thought it was just something crotchety old fucks repeat just for the sake of it.
Or when they judge a product based on toughness and weight.
I thought it was crude, and antiquated method of evaluation.
New = light = tech = modern, ye gimpy old fucks.
One time I needed a new vacuum cleaner, a gimpy, crotchety old fuck at work said "government recently passed regulation limiting the power of new vacuum cleaners; go to xxx and find the old models of yyy"
I did as instructed and sure enough...got a machine as tough as a tank and sucks like a seasoned whore.
Now with a bit more wisdom on general manufacturing, business, material science, etc etc .... when looking for power tools, floor fans, speakers, etc, give me the old, heavy-as-rocks copy each and every time.

Used it over a decade ago with Citi. They were the only ones that I knew with that feature. And it was really useful in those wilder days of the internet (shopping portals on Yahoo, etc)....
....nowadays I think it's a relic

Good on Sam for winning the gimme (in the sense that the entire team carried itself to victory). I hope it didn't ossify him as the starter because the mistakes and inaccuracy are disconcerting.
No idea what the coaches saw in the camp and practice battles. Wish Shane would have a few series to show off.
