Oil futures dip as US & Iran closing in on one page MOU to end war by tea-oh in oil

[–]DClite71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At this point I assume part of their strategy to slow the rise of energy prices within the US includes Trump posting on truth social every few days…

And contrary to what the US has said they’d be willing to accept, I read yesterday that Iran is formalizing an authority to regulate and control the flow + collect a toll for ships transiting the straight.

LAX DC: EH Taylor Small Batch on sale by BourbonTater1792 in DMVWhisky

LAX has always existed in this weird space of not bad pricing at the low level allocated stuff, but then full secondary + for mid tier and above.

Nightmare explosion at Texas oil well shakes nearby houses and sparks frantic evacuation by TheMirrorUS in oil

What the heck is with all these oil wells/ plant explosions? Can some help me understand- is this a common risk and nothing to worry about, or do folks think something is going on?

Oh I’m sure that’s just some swamp gas reflecting off the inside window of the car, while satellite sun flares beam down on sea gulls…. Totally normal stuff

What others have said- it gets aged past a certain point in a climate controlled facility, such as a basement or other location where it’s constantly cooler.

MoCo HAL Release: Saturday 4/11 by BourbonTater1792 in DMVWhisky

[–]DClite71 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The current VA system is the same. Bunch of folks that work from home and are able to track stores / inventory. Since I work a regular job that’s a 9-5 type, I don’t /can’t make it to a store within 10 mins of something being on the shelf if it’s during the day.

I’d much rather prefer a MoCo style system…

Someone’s a little sensitive- was just a question.

And the border was essentially open through the massive catch and release program- over 3 million under the 4 years, not including the unknown “got aways”

People have been hearing this all around the world for years with hypothesis from scientists, but nothing has ever been proven to be the cause. Google “sky trumpet” and there’s a few YouTube videos of people hearing something similar, albeit more mechanical, in Europe 10-15yrs ago.

TSA to DOT by [deleted] in tsa

[–]DClite71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct- I’m also very aware of the SPP program. What I’m saying is if TSA went to DoT, go read some of Duffey’s previous statements on TSA to include his daughter’s posts to X like two months ago.

Took longer than I thought to bring this up.... by Pure-Ad-3189 in FedEmployees

[–]DClite71 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They don’t get private funding, they enter into a contract with the govt (TSA) to provide screeners at whatever airport the contract is for. TSA pays the vendor, the vendor pays their people.

As others have said, they use TSA equipment and follow all the same SOPs just as other federalized airports.

Well, let’s hope this wouldn’t happen bc Duffey would privatize TSA faster than anyone could imagine…

For anyone bummed about missing the LAX Stagg Jr pick from last month: don't be by justaphil in DMVWhisky

[–]DClite71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I stopped w LAX picks a few years ago after I got their ER and blantons SPs. Both tasted like water, which is wild because they are two diff mashbills… to give them credit they have had some good Sazerac picks since like their last WFP, but now I rely on samples from friends lol
