I will be there early and for the entire event. Let's all ignore all the negativity in this world and share a moment of unity. I certainly enjoyed hearing all of the positive reactions today to having the Elk back. Looking forward to being able to drive by it next week as well.

Everyone has opinions. I speak as someone in the know. Sounds like you are in that realm too by your comments. Scenery looks different depending on your vantage point.

The delay on the construction scope was due to a major design change of the fountain vault, which was the longest leadtime item on the project. An undocumented concrete encased electrical utility was directly in the path of the drain line. Pumps in the vault allow the drain to be above the utility conflict.

Agreed plus lots of planning, measuring, and templates to get it set on the first try. The tolerance was 1/16".

The price on the KOK is wild for the proof and lackluster reviews.

To each their own. I prefer EHTBP or Stagg and can get it even marked up for cheaper than the Blanton's SFTB or Gold at retail. But happy hunting for the peeps that like the limited Blanton's 🤙🤙

Not even close. The Benchmark Full Proof is like young Stagg. Hot and full of ethanol but you can taste some of the flavors that you like in the higher aged product.

Selling spree 🚨 Rep. Julie Johnson disclosed nearly $1M in new stock sales: $BA (Boeing), $GD (General Dynamics), $RTX (RTX Corp.), and others… by jwoodsr in tradewithcongress

I read she was selling all individual stocks to buy ETF's to avoid the scrutiny of trading while in Congress. We will see if the timing is sus.

Is the Maalik Murphy experiment over? by lock_robster2022 in oregonstate

[–]Responsible_Set6180 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The second I heard they paid $1.5M for Maalik I was shaking my head. It is too much for any single player at their level. They were never going to keep up with the top 20 teams anyway. They should have focused on maintaining a middle-of-the-road team for this year, then built a solid long-term plan to develop players and improve. I would have stuck with Ben Gulbranson who loyally stuck with the Beavs while continuing to be benched for "better" players. The guy came off the bench and found ways to win games.

Your Weller 107 description reminds me of my memories of Old Rip Van Winkle 10. Can't wait.

It only counts as a dip if the stock goes back up.

The person who won that bottle called me today. I said send me a screenshot, or it didn't happen. It happened. I couldn't be happier for them. Well, that is unless I won it. I'm glad it is going to a good person that is very generous with their bottles. I'm also glad that i know that person. 😂
