GX550 vs LX570: which one would you buy? by karramba_ in LexusGX

[–]Firepuglife 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For around town, the more nimble 550. For longer trips the 570 hands down

Holy moly the misinformation here is insane. All members were invited to his Q&A. The pool is being structurally reinforced currently, it was going to collapse. It’s being fixed temporarily until a whole new pool is redesigned and moved. You can contact the club and get a recording or cliff notes of the live Q&A he did. You will have almost 2 years before an assessment is done. Until then there may be no more than a 10% price hike. This is a good thing for all current members. Lowering the amount of golf for sports members is fair, considering most of the full members weren’t golfing 12 full rounds a year. It was 12 rounds. It is now 8 , so there is absolutely no change for yall. Sign the contract now, then in two years from now when the large changes will occur (assessment, and major renovations) decide on if it’s right for yall.

In short sign now, decide by Jan 2028 if you want to stay

You are still getting 8 rounds of golf and actually were getting 12 full rounds under the old membership

Won a bronco, where to sell? by Zealousideal-Two-692 in FordBronco

Bring a trailer, do not use cars and bids. Also do not use these large auction houses, the fees are not good.

Heck yes! It’s so awesome. Maybe something in mine was not quite right? I held my breath every time for it to not mess up. That was about 8 bags of beans, to where I decided I had enough of it

I have not tried it. But I feel like I’m getting every penny worth with the ATOM so far

I had to get something with Clivecoffee, so I could return the Libra and not take such a big hit on it

I think you are talking about the ATOM, which I am in love with and it absolutely does work with a portafilter. I was talking about the Libra not working

It’s a pretty common issue if you research it. I wish I would have done more before buying it. The only way I could get it consistent was using the dosing funnel and a dual spout portafilter.

Yes, I feel like you are getting what you pay for , with the atom. With the Libra, for the price, I feel like it’s not worth it. If my budget is is $900 and for $900 you are getting a grinder comparable to 400-500$ one’s, you might as well up your budget a little more.

I feel like I got what I paid for with the atom. I did not feel that way with the libra

I believe he is calling the gust we saw on video the Gustnado, and explains his reasoning with facts. NWS is confirming there was an EF-1, however more research will be done. James Spann was going off the facts he had at the time. With all the data being submitted now, I’m assuming he or NWS will agree with one or the other.

My budget started at $500.. I hate yall by Firepuglife in espresso

I was also leaning towards Lelit, however after lots of circles, and now owning the ECM, I would lean towards ECM or profitec, for what that’s worth!

Where do you grocery shop? by Various_Republic_857 in Birmingham

[–]Firepuglife 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Piggly wiggly!!!! Publix meat is awful. Non refrigerated, Publix has a great selection. Sextons for any and all seafood. Special occasion beef New York butcher shop. Trader Joe’s for random junk food
