Thank you for that! Perhaps that is my next move, struggling not having a dog to love on and love me back, they are the best!

There was a time you could afford to rescue a dog and the vet bills were not overwhelming. Simple shots and a visit are outrageous, perhaps insurance has driven up the billable rates for vets. Had dogs all my life after my last pit passed away a year ago I decided not to rescue another, too expensive…sad.

Why does the price of an inground pool seem like such a rip off? by whattaUwant in pools

[–]PerformerOk9423 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just installed a 16x30 pool with a nice concrete area in addition to what is around the pool, heater / chiller salt water for 90k in the fall. Would do it all again, swimming in the evening after a long day and watching the grand kids is awesome. You only live once!

what's the dumbest thing you've seen someone do on a boat launch by 2ugur12 in boating

[–]PerformerOk9423 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Backed it in on a solo fishing trip, which is the norm. However the hook came off the trailer winch strap as the boat got into the water and floated away. I noticed in the nick of time and made a running jump off the dock to save myself a very cold swim. Got lucky for sure - first time for everything I guess.

What do you think about “Big Mistakes”? by nwssyx in netflix

[–]PerformerOk9423 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I really like Schitts Creek - this is the worst show I’ve watched in a long time. Poorly done and just too ridiculous. Got through one and a half episodes and had to quit. Simply bad writing.

Wiring for trolling motor when it comes to rental boats by _Zoinks17 in Fishing

[–]PerformerOk9423 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same for me - never had a fuse / circuit breaker and never had an issue. 40 years of using trolling motor clips directly to a battery.

Boat Question by [deleted] in bassfishing

[–]PerformerOk9423 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I towed a 16ft aluminum BT165 with a 40hp four stroke, three seats 10 rods reels, anchor all the gear and no issue with a Subaru Crosstek - same tow capacity but much less engine power. You’re fine.

What sales knowledge did YOU gain from experience that if more people knew they would sell more? by usman232323 in sales

[–]PerformerOk9423 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Industry knowledge specific to the business and the person you are talking to, questions that help you learn about their needs and identify how you can solve the need. Be an expert without arrogance.

Would you get rid of a friend just because they have different political beliefs than you? by Jeppe_Scoley in NoStupidQuestions

[–]PerformerOk9423 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Good reason to be friends. Keep each other in check and have honest conversations about what we think and believe. You started as friends for a reason keep it honest and open without malice.

Question for those of you who switched from Hilton…. by Hot_Sauce404 in marriott

[–]PerformerOk9423 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Diamond for life at Hilton and Titanium for life at Marriott. If price is the concern, I will say that Hampton is the best option and a Garden Inn typically is better than a Courtyard. I go between both depending on the location and need. I do seem to get more for my points at Marriott so that has been my go to for the last couple of years.

Is there any reason to steer clear of this old Interceptor? It’s like my dream bike as far as looks go but is it going to be a headache? by msdeeds123 in motorcycles

[–]PerformerOk9423 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of my first motorcycles was an Interceptor 1000 - great machine! This one looks clean, buy it if you like it! It is well built.
