    Is it true that it only takes 2mg of Fentanyl to kill somebody?  So like a 1"x1"x1" cube of fentanyl could easily kill hundreds of people?  

    If you're talking about thinning the homeless herd, you need something stronger than fentanyl. They'll eat that shit like Tic Tacs.

    Yeah, he apparently has a degree in "Science, Technology, & Society".

    I guess that's a good thing.  At least it's Stanford.  He's cleared the bar to become a college coach at most schools.

    That sounds like a landing spot for athletes and legacy admits that can't get admitted to the real majors or for those that just want a degree in nothing.

     

     

  3. Just went and watched Fight Club at the Alamo. I hadn’t seen it since opening night in ‘99.

    Man, the fight sound design is sickening. Just brutal.

    It was fun seeing all the hints to the ending this time around.

    I didn’t realize that NIN’s Copy of A was from a quote in this movie. I wonder if Reznor got the idea when rewatching Fincher’s films when working on a score for him.

    Nice to see the dude from Mindhunter getting work back in the day.

  4. I humbly propose for season 4, they bring back Sydney Sweeney’s character as an adult. I also propose that the season takes place at the nudist/swinger White Lotus Hedonism Resort in Jamaica.

  5. I'm about to start a new job.  I have my existing 401K that I can either leave in the 401K at my soon-to-be ex-employer, roll to the new 401k, or roll it to an IRA.

    My current 401K has some under performing target date options but does have the Fidelity S&P 500 (FXAIX) which I have always have 100% of my retirement in. I've been gruntled with the returns.

    However, as I get down to my last 8 years of working with a planned retirement age of 59 1/2, I want some more flexible investment options as I near the finish line that an IRA would provide.

    Are there any reasons NOT to roll it to an IRA?  I'll never need a loan or an early withdrawal like you can do in a 401K.  Are there any pre or post retirement disadvantages to an IRA versus a 401k?
     

     

  6. Saw a few YouTube car channel videos about the coming pickup truck Armageddon.  Dodge can't even sell trucks at all. The average Dodge price was over $85,000 with probably half of them over $100,000.  Ford wasn't far behind.  Chevy seemed be the best priced but you were still looking at $60,000 for a trim level that would've been considered a $30,000 fleet vehicle 5 years ago.  The dealers are keeping them on the lot instead of discounting them because they have to incur that loss when they do.  Until then it's just on paper, so they're kicking that can down the road as long as they can.

  7. Love a full English.  It's one of the all-time greats.  I am also a fan of the full Scottish breakfast (I got this one in Glasgow...they were out of english bacon, so I got double black pudding, which made me very very happy):

    I think I’ve posted it before, but I like to riff on the Full English and make a Full Texan breakfast.

    My last version was:

    Smoked sausage link
    Bacon
    Chorizo Migas
    Skillet potatoes
    Refried beans
    Grilled jalapeños
    Tortillas
    Texas toast

    It did not suck.
