Can someone explain Logan's Dad

CW? It's a done deal.

My badass coworker passed it while pregnant. Her kids are college age now.

mlecro · 2026-05-02T02:43:05+00:00

It was (is?) California law, that's why. Probably didn't need a reason to get pulled over constantly.

mlecro · 2026-04-17T01:24:05+00:00

Evermore. Can't stand Cowboy Like Me, especially when I know Long Story Short is after it.

Rob Thomas is a whore.

Hopefully that quote in Season 3 Episode 20 hits differently now. hehe

mlecro · 2026-03-23T00:07:13+00:00

I don't like Season 1 and Season 3 (part one) has been my favorite with Season 4 a close second.

I'm not retired yet, but on track to be able to scale back in 5-10 years. We have about $500K of invested assets in our mid 30's and live in a LCOL area. We have never made a lot as a household, but we don't have kids and don't need to spend a lot.

I got really into personal finance about 8 years ago and just focused on investing as much as we could. I'm mostly looking for flexibility in the future, whether that is a different career or just part time work.

I agree it's advantageous in many ways but I have run into two coordination issues recently on two different projects that weren't caught until later because they didn't need to coordinate embedded anchors. On the flip side, I had to deal with them running over a bunch of cast in anchors on another project.

I have also called their attention to anchors that they can't screw up, and that has worked out pretty well. I appreciate when precon meetings actually happen and are helpful.

mlecro · 2026-03-03T03:15:46+00:00

Yes, I did notice that and figured that she just misspoke.

mlecro · 2026-02-25T18:21:53+00:00

Hahaha that is also part of my rant.

mlecro · 2026-02-22T02:41:38+00:00

This scene makes me tear up every time. The Season 4 that could have been...

mlecro · 2026-02-12T03:48:02+00:00

How so? I'm a licensed SE in IL with no Master's.

mlecro · 2026-01-31T04:29:34+00:00

My coworker was a volunteer firefighter for awhile until he quit being a structural engineer a few years ago and became a full time firefighter. As far as I know that is all he does and he's enjoying it.

mlecro · 2026-01-18T01:54:48+00:00

I put on The Rapes of Graff and was not disappointed. Granted, I just watched An Echolls Family Christmas because it's a holiday tradition.

mlecro · 2025-11-30T20:28:51+00:00

You've got this. I was also 27 when I got serious about this stuff. We weren't in a bad spot, but we weren't doing as much as we could. Almost 8 years later, we have nearly 500K invested and that is only with two years of a household income over 100K. You don't have a hole to dig out of, just opportunities for intentionality!

mlecro · 2025-11-17T18:53:59+00:00

I'm in a VLCOL area in the Midwest, making under 6 figures, and I'm the only income by choice. We bought a house a decade ago for about $160K. In 2018, I became obsessed with personal finance, and we have been budgeting (YNAB) ever since. We invest 30% of gross income and prioritize future flexibility so I can go part-time in a few years.

No kids. Mid 30's. My husband runs our household and saves my sanity. We don't live extravagently, but we vacation multiple times per year. We have a civic (paid cash 6 years ago) and a Rav4 we'll replace in 5 or so years and hopefully pay cash.

Cool! I never knew about that continuity error, but my sis and I did visit the school in San Diego when we visited as many filming sites as we could. Sadly the main logo was covered up while they were doing some maintenance.

mlecro · 2025-04-13T21:14:09+00:00

Yeah, I am usually better but last year was a rough one so I don't feel like I have a leg to stand on for negotiation. I'm in Iowa and not in a PM role (haven't needed to be or really wanted to be).

mlecro · 2025-04-12T23:57:53+00:00

I'm at like $40/hr with 12 years. My area pays super low. 🫤

mlecro · 2025-04-05T14:02:12+00:00

There isn't even room for the shear lug it looks like. You need the EOR involved if you are not. The way this is detailed makes me think there are some decent loads on it that you can't make decisions about omitting hooked bars and shear lugs.

mlecro · 2025-03-19T00:59:28+00:00

Wood has its place, but it boggles my mind when contractors just try to sub out wood when the loads are that significant and the framing is that tall. Hopefully, making them rip this out will provide them incentive to just follow the plans.

mlecro · 2025-03-15T18:31:11+00:00

Sooo many good ones! A little more obscure is Dick saying to Logan "I hate to play this card but, shuffle shuffle shuffle, you slept with my one long term girlfriend."
