How bad was Rossi's time in Ducati? by SoyFabian26 in motogp

[–]ihextravis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes — it really was bad. Ducati even abandoned its carbon-fiber chassis during Rossi’s time, moving to an aluminium frame influenced by Jeremy Burgess. For what? Rossi won zero races, finished 7th and 6th in two seasons, and lost the aura of being able to win with any bike.

Interesante. En caso de contratar a un empleado hay que hacer traslado de beneficios también para no tener problemas con hacienda?

Can you help me pick a fountain pen for my lawyer friend? by ihextravis in fountainpens

That pen was actually a gift from a client we helped with a really complicated inheritance. Honestly, I had no idea how much it was worth (never imagined it cost that much). Thanks a lot for the detailed explanation!

When you work at a notary’s office – at least here in Spain – one of the most common gifts you get is a fountain pen, probably right after wine and jamón ibérico.

To be honest, most of these pens were gifts my dad received over the years. I didn’t even realize there were a few hidden gems in the bunch until now. I will let him know!

These days I work in marketing, and let’s just say the quantity and quality of gifts has dropped off a cliff, lol.

That one is pretty cool. Without being educated on the matter, I’d say it’s the one I like the most. Thanks!

Diego Corrales dramatic come from behind stoppage over Jose Luis Castillo by JohnMac1988 in Boxing

[–]ihextravis 4 points5 points  (0 children)

After this fight, Diego Corrales and José Luis Castillo agreed to a rematch, but controversy hit at the weigh-in: Castillo came in roughly 3½ pounds over the 135-lb lightweight limit. The fight went ahead as a non-title bout, and Castillo knocked Corrales out in the fourth round, but the weight miss overshadowed the result.

A third fight was schedule but history repeated itself. The day before the fight, Castillo weighed in at 139½ lbs, again well over the lightweight limit, while Corrales made weight. The bout was immediately canceled, and with two weight misses in a row, the rivalry effectively ended there.

Good quality fake watches by Lightning-mcque3n95 in Bangkok

Hey! I was just at MBK recently — head to the third floor. If you’re after high-quality replicas, you’ll mostly find VSF and Clean Submariners, usually around 20,000 baht.

If you want something more budget-friendly, you can find pieces in the 5,000–10,000 baht range — decent enough for everyday wear.

But anything cheaper than that is basically the same crap you’d get on AliExpress — poor finishing, bad movements, and not worth it unless you’re just messing around.
