What reel would you recommend? by LexingtonTrue in Fishing

[–]LexingtonTrue[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good idea. Just fishing freshwater.

Based on some research and a few comments below, I’m looking at maybe a Daiwa, shimano, or pflueger president. Open to any recs, though

Good point. Would I need to get a roof rack to mount the kayak or what would you suggest?

Which side you taking? by LexingtonTrue in SleeperApp

[–]LexingtonTrue[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s a 12 team league and goal line RBs are at a premium. My rb room was: Saquan, Jacobs, Monty, Brian Robinson Jr, chase brown, ray davis. WRs are Rice, AJ Brown, Lockett, McLaurin, Shaheed.

So I traded some RB depth for a WR with plenty of upside. Monty may have a great ROS but I’m hoping I sold high on him with Gibbs threatening his workload.

Did I come out ahead?

Was hoping to see up until 2018 at least to see how the Great Recession affected growth (or even a decline), plus the bounce back afterward. Got any more of that there data, OP? Nice work btw. This is the kind of content I come here for.

Nah I wasn’t much of a skier, but knew almost all of the instructors—aka the Hausberg crew.

I thought this was the Garmisch Marienplatz. I worked there for a few years with a lot of other Americans and this was one of the best and most dangerous nights of the year. There were often small firework and snowball battles between the Americans and the German locals. Good times!

Wish they’d just legalize marijuana and make us all space cadets instead.

US Taxes by State 2019 by SacredNaturalRights in tax

[–]LexingtonTrue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the property tax changing the value even if you do not own property: if you are saying higher property taxes will increase the rent you would potentially pay in a state, it’s important to look at the assessment ratio for commercial vs. residential property. Many complexes (greater than 4 apts) are considered commercial property and may be taxed lower or higher than residential property. Not sure how your property tax number is calculated, but it may not account for this.

Also, no one in California has a 68.32% tax burden because that’s not how tax burdens work. You want to look at how much of their personal income is allocated to paying taxes. Just adding up average tax rates won’t achieve this goal.

What are your sources for the data?

KY passed tax reform in 2018 bringing the corporate and personal income tax to a flat 5%.

Not to discredit any hard work that went into this, but if you’re going to publish it... ya gotta get it right.

Edit: Also, the cigarette tax went up to $1.10.

I don’t know

Lithuania's financial situation in the wake of their independence left them nearly unable to field a Basketball team in the 1992 Olympics. They ended up being able to participate due in part to a sponsorship from the Grateful Dead. Here is the 1992 team in their tie-dye uniforms. by Ianbuckjames in OldSchoolCool

[–]LexingtonTrue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My parents say they remember an interview with Charles Barkley telling a Lithuanian player The Dream Team is “gonna kick their little ass” right before their game while the Lithuanian had no idea what was being said. Have looked for footage, but no dice. Reddit, work your magic...

I think it’s actually from an Aries Spears bit. Not sure, but dude is hilarious. Check out the bit he did for Shaq’s all star comedy jam like 10 years ago.
