    Its trending that way after hours. But Elon is in spin mode with "new cheaper cars coming, robotaxi coming" etc. I give it a week and the fall in share price will resume once everyone realizes he's full of shit like always.

    There was a time when replacing Elon as CEO would have tanked TSLA, have we pass that now? Would replacement actually raise the stock price (seriously)?

  2. Elko's "changing the culture" and "going blue collar" is just replacing existing 4 & 5 stars with fresh 2 & 3 stars

    I can't see Elko's personality opening up the pockets of the big donors after they just lived through the jimbo years.

    I'm of the thinking aggy signed a deal with the devil when they hired jimbo. They thought having to buyout jimbo was the price they paid, but payment hasn't actually been collected yet. It's about to become due.

    I believe The Pirate said you can't teach accuracy. No?

    Yep, also said and fits here...

    "People make this mistake all over the country, and everybody can think of one, but there will be a guy who is big, strong and athletic, and everyone gets tempted by speed and if someone has a super strong arm. I've seen guys improve, but they don't all of a sudden become accurate."

  4. Damn.. just saw.  I had one of the best steaks of my life at the "Steak & Ribs" in Rif Fort area a couple years back, the flank steak with chimichurri sauce.  I still have dreams of that steak.

  5. I'm looking to add drapes to our patio as well. Already have roller, would like drapes for winter to keep warmer and cut down wind.

    Will need support in middle, but can get  "C"-hooks that will slide over the middle support so drapes can go full span or pulled to either side.

    On length, I'd be concerned shorter ones wouldn't be heavy enough to not sway with the wind and blind people periodically who are looking that direction.

    We have an outdoor patio. This picture is facing approximately west, so we get a couple hours in the afternoon/evening when the sun is blazing between the roof and the fence.

    Would like to buy some shades. I was thinking the roll type, but I’m having trouble sourcing some wide enough. The distance between posts is about 13 feet. Only need them to be about 2-3 feet long. What other options are there that I should look at?

    Yeah, I couldn't find anything longer than 115in (9.5 ft) for roller. TBH anything longer probably not practical for roller.  If only needing a couple feet drop as well they would be overkill price/use wise.

    I'd consider maybe just going with drapes that you can pull shut as needed. It's going to be much cheaper and easier for the couple hours your thinking, plus would offer noise/privacy at other times as needed for those sides.

    Update? One of my patients went blind after getting shingles in one of their eyes. 

    Nightmare fuel right there. That should be the lead for getting people to get the shingles vaccine. "Prevent blindness, get the shingles vaccine today"

    What year were the oldest pools made that are experiencing this asr? What does it look like on the indide of the pool once it starts (yes cracks I know but anything else?).

    could be any year, but 2019 was when the fly ash shortage seemed to start and when many pools built then started seeing ASR in 2021+

    Rather that a straight or single stress type crack, ASR tends to be more random and moving in all directions

    As fun as it is to watch a wide open receiver catch a bomb, that doesn’t tell us much. 

    Told me that it is possible for our QB to see it AND hit the guy in stride.
