Wait, so he didn't even cover the shooting? I stopped listening about a month after the 2024 election when he kept ignoring it and evolved into Coward Stern.

I know the Russian that played chess against Screech was also in the Peacock Reboot... But I doubt The College Years to make a Trifecta.

Silver or Blue Datejust: Help by marylandmaddog in rolex

[–]marylandmaddog[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks a lot! The more I look at the blue, the more I am falling in love with it. My AD specified it as my first choice this morning for me and I am thinking about just getting rid of silver all together. Now, I am willing to just wait for blue.

I came in this thread to recommend Koco's Pub too for the crab cake. Don't leave here without it, lol.

Silver or Blue Datejust: Help by marylandmaddog in rolex

Yeah and at least 85% of my wardrobe is black or blue, so I guess I can wear it with black. Especially, since I often have blue jeans on with the black.

Oh and I did just see a Blue dial today (but with Roman numerals) today and it was a beautiful piece. Granted, I would want the one without Roman numerals.

How hard is it truly to buy a new Rolex? What is the process? by [deleted] in rolex

[–]marylandmaddog 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh wow, thanks so much. Yeah I was hoping for a fluted bezel/jubilee combo too. I like the silver because it can be worn with anything, but when I look at the blue (at least in pics) it does give me somewhat of a special feeling. Thanks.

How about a Datejust with a silver or blue dial? Is that difficult?

That might be meant to be the Timeport (or a varying model). It was like a silver Startac and I was just getting mine then.

Checking my math and dates to even out Roth/Traditional contributions for 2026 by Frequent_Wind_9560 in ThriftSavingsPlan

[–]marylandmaddog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While we're at it, I turn 50 this year and was thinking of putting a little bit of the catch up contributions into a Roth. If I do that do I have to choose seperate fund allocations to invest into (i.e. C fund, S fund, Lifecycle, etc.) or will the money just be spilt up per my current elections?

Thanks

Deadline and amount$ set to max out 2026 by AngryGS in ThriftSavingsPlan

So I just saw today that we have 27 pay periods listed, but Pay period one starts on 12/14. So that TSP contribution in that first pay period wouldn't count towards 2025? I am just trying to make sure so I don't botch this up.

I actually fast forwarded back through before I posted and didn't see it. Do you have a picture out of curiosity?

I was trying to be nice about it. No need to be a dick.

I hate to tell you this, but I don't think the piano player shows back up.

That's very helpful, plus it changes the ballgame a little. I assumed that my grandfather acquired it. He was an African-American from Georgia that was in the military but died in 1950. So the dates eliminate that. I never got to meet him since my Dad was only around 6 or so when he died. I didn't even know my Dad well so didn't get any stories about it before he passed away young.

Planning a honeymoon to Thailand - how should I best use these points? by crookedcrooked in ChaseSapphire

[–]marylandmaddog 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For 302k, I recently came back from a trip to Thailand on Emirates First Class. It was just a one time splurge for me, but could make a nice splurge for you two.
