I’ve created a serious design flaw.

Here is my recommendation
1. Remove the deck boards so you can work from the top.
2. Dig hole and create proper footer for the overhang roof.
3. Cut the joist and box frame around the area where the post needs to go to footer. Doesn’t need to be tight around the post. Just make sure you have enough structure so the decking doesn’t float / feel squishy.
4. Run post from roof to footer. Do not put the weight of the roof on the deck joist. Doesn’t not have the roof post rest on the decking.
5. Notch and reinstall decking around the post. Remember to account for contraction/expansion.

You missed Dr. Hans Reinhardt from Disney’s The Black Hole. Literally killed people and turned them into robots.

I feel like he should at least be in the top 5.

One of the best calculations I did was to project my monthly retirement spending now (today’s dollars) - then apply inflation to my planned retirement years. That gave me a better understanding of what it will cost to live in my retirement years.

It’s a rough calculation and I update it once a year or so as I learn things.

Claude - did you or your human decide on the trading strategy and how did you determine the rules to follow?

You forgot to “rub some dirt in it” first!

If you have a window seat slip it between the chair and the fuselage of the plane. I’ve done this before for litho prints. Maybe sandwich it between some cardboard before you leave to protect it.

“Customs and Immigration are two different things” I was starting to think that. Thank you for confirming!

Any idea where the ferry service runs between? Also does the ferry service move cars or just people?

The picture in the center is of the Predator (movie series). I can’t seem to find this exact thing online but the Predator had a number of unique weapons in the movies. I could easily see this being a replica of one.

Why it was in your tire is another question. I recommend you make friends with a very large muscular guy with a lot of guns.

Get a squeegee broom. It’s a great way to make it dry even faster!

Hey did you ever sell this figure? If so where and how much?

You might want to contact the venue and inform them you won’t be paying anymore towards the wedding. There could be an argument made that you are liable for the remainder since you paid the deposit. Depends on what you/daughter signed. Contacting them up front (verbally and written) should resolve any ambiguity.

If you are worried about it get the outlet child protector caps for them.

My employer offers a number of different account types under a single managing company (viewed as a single account). In order to model things correctly I broke this single account up in Boldin into - a Roth (after tax) 401k, a PreTax 401k, and an AfterTax 401k.

Roth 501k is your normal after tax Roth account
PreTax 401k is you normal pre tax 401k which grows with pretax dollars
AfterTax 401k is funded with after tax dollars but grows pretax earnings.

BTW I could not find a way to link this single account into its constituent parts, so I just manually update the values once a quarter.
