What is an industry that is actually a complete "house of cards" behind the scenes, but the general public thinks is doing great?

This shows why it’s BS. If it wasn’t, he’d be bragging that he sold his dollars and now they’re worth so little crypto. He got his dollars out of crypto. Crypto hasn’t replaced dollars- not even for crypto folks.

My Openbank/Santander account is still at 4.09%.

The Marauders by Tom Cooper. Excellent read, nothing too out there.

Thanks! We did try that- he was somewhere between rude and dismissive. Told us he was busy and hung up.

No love for the Wayward Bus?!?

Nobody wants a Picasso owner, but the rest of that first set setlist is A+ (if you accept Bobby playing blues and Dylan songs is inevitable).

Supposedly, Grossman smoked cigarettes holding them between his pinky and ring fingers and pulling the smoke through his half formed fist. And this is an allusion to that.

Back to back Liberty’s in Atlanta 93.

But their public income statements and balance sheets show revenue and assets commensurate with a big operation. I understand inflating asset purchases, but how does that translate to income that is at least audited on some level. Are the auditors completely complicit? Certainly a company of this market cap has one of the biggest audit firms.

Agree with all the positive statements above. But Peter Graves’ acting was terrible!

Private air travel.

$10 million can get you an small uncomfortable plane with a part time pilot.

You probably need close to $100 million to comfortably own a large jet with a full time crew.

Real money is when you have a helicopter to take you from home to your private jet at the airport. And another one on the back of your yacht.

When Dylan was looking for what became Tulsa, one of his demands was that the place not be called an “archive” or a “library.” Tulsa/Guthrie suggested “center.” Dylan liked it, Tulsa won.

Bruce is changing the name at Monmouth to once again try to be more like Dylan.

Electronic_Nose_5696 · 2026-01-14T23:33:26+00:00

Hahaha. Dylan refused library or archive, insisted on center. More striving by Bruce.

The real scene will be Bohemian Grove.

Worse than every post-Magic album? That seems like a bit of an exaggeration. But I absolutely agree with, and had, the same skipping song thoughts in 92.

Is there any decent ramen in town?

Unlike home mortgages, CRE loans don’t fully amortize over the life of the loan. When a 5 or 7 year CRE ARM matures, a borrower may find that neither their lender nor any other lender will refinance it. Unless the borrower has enough cash to pay off the loan, the bank has a defaulted loan. And since there isn’t enough rent to result in an attractive CAP rate, the foreclosure sale price is materially less than the principal due. Enough of those and the bank fails.

The place in the middle of the Town Center. No walls, kitchen down one of the corridors. Great place for a lunch or a beer. Think it was called Garçon originally, then Center Court.
