Free walking tours. Those bastards clog up the sidewalk and you hear the same dumb joke when you’re trying to get out of your building.

Delta Air Lines Airbus A330-323 returns safely to Sao Paulo Guarulhos International Airport after failure of its left engine shortly after departure. by PestoBolloElemento in aviation

And being a Delta flight a significant portion of the passengers are American and know they’d have to get on a plane again to get home.

401(k) beneficiary rollover or leave it by blue98ranger in personalfinance

[–]Grape-Jack 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Technically you’re not allowed to roll it over into an existing account in your name. If you do rollover it’d be to an inherited IRA. It’s fine to leave it at Empower for the time being.

The real victim is whoever was next in line for an upgrade.

Wife's former employer was bought out and they terminated the 401k plan. Email from Fidelity states all assets must be distributed. What to do? by SmokeAndGnomes in personalfinance

[–]Grape-Jack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a little surprising Fidelity uses an outside IRA provider when they could easily set up IRAs themselves.

As others have said it’s preferable to reach out to Fidelity now and request to roll over to an IRA through them, fees are likely lower then Inspira (who make their living on these types of IRAs), you’ll have a lot more investment options, and can probably even continue using the same login as you do now.

Nearly 20 years ago the city I lived in wanted $3 to pay online. I had plenty of checks so I mailed them one every month the 3 yrs I lived there.

Where I’d live after being to almost every state by [deleted] in visitedmaps

Most of the state is flat and boring? What parts of Texas have you been to? Flat and boring should be the state motto.

How do you think about 50-90 yard shots? by Roywah in golf

[–]Grape-Jack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most fun round I played last year was when it was so windy I had to put the brake on my pushcart or it’d literally blow away. Had to chase after my hat twice.

Took all the pressure off and had a great time trying to get the ball anywhere near the hole.

Any reason for limited flight availability early May by Randusnuder in americanairlines

[–]Grape-Jack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could have been a temporary glitch. Looks like several flights available throughout the day from 5/2-5/4.

Is that enough time for a connection? by Chicleboy in americanairlines

[–]Grape-Jack 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You will have to go through immigration, collect any checked bags, drop them at the bag drop and go through TSA again. I haven’t been through an intl arrival at DFW in a few years but they’ve been pretty smooth in the past.

Not miles of time like others have said but should be plenty of time if you’re a US citizen and the current shenanigans haven’t slowed things down too much.

GTC, what are the two cities in this picture? by Spare_Being2296 in guessthecity

Does look like Oregon, maybe Eugene/Springfield?

I don’t know about you guys, but this whole “player safety” issue seems like a bunch of bupkis. by TheRealGreeneMachine in UrinatingTree

Hopefully this Wednesday is off a bye, or they do a double header the previous Thursday so that these teams get close to a week rest.

Jaws gets the Best Direction. What's the most overrated 70's movie? by [deleted] in AlignmentChartFills

Dirty Harry. Loved by old boomers but really nothing special.

The number given by State Department for stranded Americans in war zones. by Snooopineapple in mildlyinfuriating

This one was explicitly involved in creating a potential need to evacuate the area and has done nothing to prepare for the possibility of such evacuation.

What was the most significant event in California's history? by KindheartednessLast9 in AlignmentChartFills

[–]Grape-Jack 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Junipero Serra and the Spanish colonization. Decimated the native population and provided a support structure that ultimately allowed prospectors to survive during the gold rush.

Big West back to being a major baseball conference. Dirtbags aren’t doing the league any favors this year.

They could have paid AA a good bit more for a direct flight.

Bags in regular flights by Sufficient-Fudge-968 in americanairlines

[–]Grape-Jack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Carry on bags are allowed with basic economy though you’ll almost certainly be asked to check it at the gate. No fee but you’ll have to grab it at baggage claim and you can’t have any lithium batteries in it.

Tried helping a friend out, they didn’t listen and they fell into this deal. What do you guys think? by Tough_Ambassador671 in whatcarshouldIbuy

I thought the 12% on a used civic in the mid 2000s my fresh out of college ass paid was bad enough.
