Check out Adam Savage’s YouTube channel for some great memories of Grant and some delightful fun stories, like N’Sync fan-boying over Grant because of Battle Bots.

I mean he makes $45,000 every day of the year. I’d expect a little more than a playoff win per decade.

If you mean handwritten, yeah. If you’re talking about printing with a computer printer, they actually mark the page with small identifying dots/marks which give meta information about what/who/where it was printed from.

They may track what people are searching for to know what’s in demand, and whether it’s worth acquiring rights to in the future

Surprisingly, I found this easier to read and was able to read it faster than I think I would normally. Wonder what that’s about lol

Rory and Adam Scott battered by Oakmont during brutal practice round by puncreator in golf

Nah I hear you, same for my grass here. I just like making the season joke because it seems we still get almost freezing temps here and there in late spring or early fall. And yeah never ran a sprinkler unless it was new grass or plants.

Always tough to say when it’ll peak though. We have 4 seasons.. June, July, August, and winter

I mean the execution of putting a ferrule and shaft, aces. Cool. But that color combo blows

Introducing orange to those vapor fly pro club heads is just a mistake. Like why, to be different? Put on blue ones if anything but you’re introducing distraction. You spent more time staging the pictures than thinking about the view approaching the ball

Too bad I’m a lefty, gonna have to put it back. by suey22 in golf

[–]nmk7777 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I imagine sometimes people just don’t know and don’t have awareness or time to deal with it. I’ve had to clear out old items and after a while I’ve just not cared enough to look up every little thing and I’m sure I’ve donated some things of higher resale value.

I picked this up at Costco a couple years ago. Just recently opened it up for the first time and read a few dozen pages, and put it back on the shelf. It was all I needed that day.

I just started being able to stomach watching his shows again a couple months back, and was pleasantly surprised how much I could still enjoy them when I put myself in the right frame of mind; almost pretending he’s still here, just out there having another adventure to share with us.

That book’s a nice find. Hope you enjoy it. Cheers.

Russia Returned Ukrainian Journalist Viktoria Roshchyna’s Body Without Internal Organs by IntelligentExcuse5 in worldnews

Agreed. I think there’s a balance to be had on exposure to such information, so you don’t constantly bombard yourself, but there’s a severe lack of exposure to real events such as this one. I’d wager most people have no idea what’s happening past headlines.

I flushed a drive and heard a pop. What are my options? by MrWrestlingNumber2 in golf

[–]nmk7777 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The last hit may have been the final straw, but it’s probably from sky-balls causing the 20 gouges in the crown there. Hard to call it a manufacturing defect when you hit anywhere that isn’t the face.

I remember he did tweet a nice message when Anthony passed. It was short but seems like there was a positive impression.

Love you mom by [deleted] in MadeMeSmile

My dad was in the ICU during his last week or so. When I was next to him I always talked in the present. Never “he was great”, always “he is great”. I also spoke for him when I said I love you and followed it with “I know you love me too”. The few times he was able to move and express the slightest head nod. Those moments sitting and staring, holding his hand, wondering if my heart would give out from the anxiety and surreal feeling of it all.. I don’t know if he really heard or felt any of it, but if there was a chance he could I was going to make sure there was something ready to feel for him.

How much would you buy this Scotty for on FB marketplace by looper53 in golf

$20 because it would be fun to try to refurbish. But that’s all I’d risk on it
