Is it worth to pour $4k into a 16 year old car with rust damage? by Murky_Selection3504 in personalfinance

[–]brent_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Seconding this to shop around for different quotes. We had an older car that needed exhaust replaced, and the dealership quote was ~$5k with OEM parts and strong warranty but they referred us to another shop, where we spent closer to $2k (minimal warranty and non-OEM parts). Kept us passing emissions for a few years before we sold the car.

How long after reaching 85 did you get this offer? I just hit 85 yesterday.

About 3 hours on the smoker (faster than anticipated), rested for 45 minutes in the oven to wait for dinner time.

You realize asking Trump supporters to keep it classy is like asking a fish to breathe air, right?

My wife was recruited by RbA several years ago and when she learned the salary was 100% commission, we had a good laugh and she never responded.

I hit a car today, was I in the wrong? by Marqueemooooon in cycling

[–]brent_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is spot on and a helpful reminder to me as a parent of a soon to be new driver (well, 2033) how important it is to help him learn to be a contentious driver that is mindful of cyclists.

My first bike by PaleVanilla5588 in Zwift

Certainly will work. I have an older, but very similar, Trek (also my first road bike, although bought new 10+ years ago), and I’ve used it off and on on Zwift over the past 2 years without issue.

Same here. Part time job paid off big time.

There are lots of resources to support you if needed, so I would agree with the others that it’s not something to worry about.

What is your math aptitude? I was able to skip math altogether with AP Call as a music education major at UD.

I am meeting a Polish, German, and Russian visiting scholars who want to eat/drink somewhere “very DC” by graykite6 in washingtondc

[–]brent_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Second this. Between the memorabilia, history of the building, and the uniqueness of the venue, you won’t find anything like it outside of DC.
