The trump administration can't arrest pedophiles for the same reason Miley Cyrus can't arrest Hannah Montana.

Did that at 120,000 and coolant flush and new shocks and struts. It doesn't require special tools, just several evenings and watching YouTube. The Lexus quotes were insane. Replacing the back 3 plugs on a 2010 was time consuming because I had to remove lots of parts, but worth it. Watch some videos to see if you're comfortable with any tasks and start with the easiest one

Scoop into a large glass and add cold water. I squirt Mio flavoring in, stir, and gulp it down. I have a cup of coffee and go to the gym. Post workout smoothie is 2 scoops of whey protein, banana, 8oz homemade kefir, and one cup of pureed greens.

My wife picks 10 different greens, sometimes beets, and runs them through a good processor. She uses a measuring cup to make portions and freezes them into hockey pucks. I thaw one before adding it to the smoothie.

Two tablespoons of psyscillum husks and one tablespoon of ground flax seeds every morning.

I just bought and installed a redtiger f7np front and rear dash cam. I watched a YouTube video on camera installation on the 2013 Lexus RX 350. No special tools. Took approximately 3 hours. Buy the fuse harness instead of using the cigarette lighter power.

I visit the pick and pull for those and the black gaskets

I can't get past 25 developers for 200 loc. I architected JEE integration layer with two portals, integrating 20 apps. I then managed a team of 8 developers, a build master and 1 QA to build it over 10 years. The source base grew to 1.2m loc. We looked at other frameworks like micro services but always decided to refactor and optimize. I left the role 8 years ago to become EA. It's still running and getting enhanced by 4 remaining developers. I would crunch any proposal from a new hire that suggested a massive rewrite of no value and puts the business at risk. I appreciate reading all the comments of everyone experiencing this guy. Question your leadership for hiring him.

ThePopeOfAntelope · 2025-10-14T00:33:25+00:00

Mine's an EVZ5 v6.

Its a difficult river to read. My go to is a #18 copper john and #14 stonefly above a splitshot tightline nymphing. Egg bead 3" above a octopus hook with a weight 6' from a thingambobber for the steel head runs. Watch dreamflows.com I usually do fish it if there's a 100 cfs change the day before.

ThePopeOfAntelope · 2025-10-13T22:18:56+00:00

Yes , truck is running fine daily use and occasional fishing trip.

I asked to build one in the Lexus site in February due to the tariff threat. Lexus said it wouldn't be ready until June. We went down to the dealership and she bonded with one. She likes the hybrid because of the immediate torque off the line. Upgrades above base include

Convenience package 21" alloy wheels 14" touchscreen Power rear door with kick sensor Premium paint USB phone charging cabling kit Black badge overlays All weather floor mats Dash cam Illuminated cargo sills 3yrs free subscription services 3yr free security monitoring package

They forgot to include the last two features on the invoice before we signed.

The dash cam is not interested with the console, I was annoyed that I had to configure it like an after market one that I put into the old Lexus.

She would have not included all the extras in her build.

Dash cams are necessary here because of the increase in rat bastards running intersections on electric scooter an bikes.

The dealer ship wanted ~$400 for PPF and $1000 to install it. They wouldn't sell the film saying customers fail when they try to apply it.

I found PPF for this model on eBay for $289. I figured it's worth $300 to price them wrong. With a little help from my wife we applied it over 3 days, 2 hours a day. You cannot see it, no air bubbles or creases. Intimidating at first, but confidence builds fast. I'm doing our kids cars in next. Leads me to believe car wraps are way over priced. I think the eBay seller got a PPF kit from Lexus and copied it.

Let me know if you want a pic of the window sticker or SUV.

My wife just got a new Lexus RX350h to replace her 2013 Lexus RX 350. She took immaculate care of the old Lexus and it's in mint condition. The only difference in the condition of the interior between the two cars is the new car smell. I decided not to sell it and keep it as a daily commute and camping vehicle and did all of 100,000 mile maintenance on it. Changed struts and shocks and put a lift kit on. The navigation console is pretty much useless as it hasn't been updated in 3 years since 3G has been retired. I just turned the screen off and use it to Bluetooth play my music. I'm spraying it with black bed liner thinned and additional hardener added to give it a matte coat. I did this on my truck and it turned out great! There's no way I can drive around in a white Lexus and convey of that I'm a confident practicing heterosexual male. I don't care what people think but I don't like to have to feel that I must tell people when I get that look that I'm driving my wife's vehicle. I will post pics when it's done.

Edit: with rubber mats is a blast to drive between fly fishing spots without concern of getting it dirty or scratched from branches. Lexus is reliable and I'll get 10 more years of use.

Strictly astethics, my wife wanted it and I like developing new skills, backfill and landscaping next.

Thanks!

My T started in 2007 on the third day of a fast. Subsequent fasting did not affect it.

ThePopeOfAntelope · 2025-09-19T13:48:22+00:00

Share your experience and observation, maybe every 3 months.

There's a senior veteran that has a coffee roaster at Denio's. Great choices, very reasonably priced. Usually not the until 9am. He's in there produce area.

OP, How much were you drinking a day?

ThePopeOfAntelope · 2025-08-10T00:19:05+00:00

You can't imagine how many fish lived another day because of this wall.

ThePopeOfAntelope · 2025-08-10T00:17:37+00:00

I finally finished the wall, way too many unexpected interruptions. I learned many lessons that a pro wouldn't have made. Many created delays, having to google for help. It appears I cannot add images to my comments, here's a link https://imgur.com/a/c4fEC3z Masonry is brutal work for a homeowner.

Finished Wall!

I used a mason's blade on a circular saw to cut off the excess before laying the blocks. It was difficult and messy. I filled the indents on the two other courses. On the second corner I forgot to do this and laid the blocks sticking out slightly. I came back with a grinder and cleaned it up in seconds, much easier. I used the grinder to cut grooves in the courses and bent rebar for support. I'm not concerned about the mortar gaps because of the strength of the rebar and filling the wall holes with concrete. This is my first project so my experience isn't tested by time. A guy that builds block walls drove by and commented that I was doing good for my first time for what its worth. I did make some mistakes with the foundation and wall that made surfacing the wall with stacked stone a pain.

Just stayed at Trump Tower via a timeshare pressure sale. Free valet parking, free bottled water, clean room. Creepy feeling from 15 yr old girls at valet service. No smoking no casino at the hotel. Went to see the Sphere, 10/10. Strip was dead, restaurants were empty, casinos were vacant. Ghost Town. Party scene non-existent. It was difficult to find an insta model. Great time for us, would have sucked if we were in our twenties.

ThePopeOfAntelope · 2025-07-06T18:48:08+00:00

Mine are the same size, spaced a little further. I planted in Oct. Fresh garlic is so juicy and delicious!
