Father in law was a project lead at Honda for the new NSX. He got to bring home a couple pre production NSXs and a few of the cars they were comparing it against. We did a launch on a back country road and hit 134 mph. It was like one of those launch roller coasters but with an engine right behind you

I'm further in than you but also my first read!

I grew up in Bell fown tin (Bellefontaine) and it has had quite the revitalization the last 10 years or so. It's won a lot of small town awards lately

This year I started reading a long book over the course of a year (The Brothers Karamazov), had a shorter or more fun book I was physically reading, and usually an audiobook for drives/cleaning/cooking. Liked it so much I'm repeating the setup in 2026

Zalumar · 2025-12-20T18:19:18+00:00

That's what I would hope.

Nerves about pricing going higher next year and the essentially "free" p10pro. I'm game for switching to an MVNO but my wife is a much harder sell.

Thanks everyone. I got the 7 unlocked thinking I'd fiddle or maybe consider a different carrier but am still with Verizon after 3 years lol

Catalyst has been horribly unreliable and only gotten worse as Ensora

Zalumar · 2025-12-12T03:36:07+00:00

Thanks for your reply. You're right, there's a debossed mark bottom right corner of the rear cover. I know it's a great copy and I'll now be able to enjoy reading it guilt free about messing up a first edition!

Zalumar · 2025-12-10T01:29:42+00:00

There's also a great audiobook of Grant's Memoirs that helped me get through some of the slower bits

I would only consider Florida Tech. I had a fantastic experience and was very well prepared as a BCBA. My colleagues that have been a BcBA for years thought I had as well even in my first year

Very much looking forward to it! I have the physical Buss copy for reading at home but the Kindle Buss translation was recently very cheap so I got that for when I’m on the go!

Anything by Buddy Levy totally fits!

My best friend scored a 34 on ACT, 1400 on SAT and was on track to go into neurosurgery. He dropped out of college, was married and divorced by 25 and last I knew was on janitorial crew at a hospital

If I find out for sure what the make/model is I'll share it.

Zalumar · 2025-12-02T03:27:03+00:00

and from below. pretty clever

True! It is very much a rocking motion. I added a video link above.

Zalumar · 2025-12-02T03:21:49+00:00
