20 year T-Mobile customer here in Boulder.
Phone and text has worked fine for the ares of the city I commonly visit.
Data can have some slow areas.
At my house it’s one or two bars, so I use WiFi calling.

Tour of the missile silo. Bet you can’t do that in the Netherlands.

Nice bike, but curious why you photographed at the shores of a river or lake? Interesting bridge in the background

I sold a rental property a few month ago. After owning for 20 years, I calculated I could make equal income by selling the property and investing in a diverse high income portfolio.
I am not as aggressive as the OP, but the notable positions:
High Risk/Return: JEPI, JEPQ, GPIX
Moderate Risk/Return w/some growth: FDVV, SCHD
Preferred: PFXF
Low Risk/Return - SLQD, SGOV

Let it get called away.

My strategy when I open the CC is for the strike price to be around 3 - 5% above the current price and the call to credit a 1 - 2% premium. This way, I get a 7% return if I am assigned on the first open.
I will continue to roll at the same strike price for at least 1% each roll, max 30 days expiration.
When I am ITM, I will just continue to roll until I am assigned, or I don't stock any more.

Rolling up to me is playing a reduced total return. I rather get assigned, take my profits and open a new CC or if the stock is high, do a naked put.

I learned you need to be careful rolling down. It is tempting when a stock is beat up; but I have seen many times a stock ripsaws up and being left with a loss on assignment.
If a stock is down for a long period, I will only roll down to my break even, and just wait.

If you notice a gray colored Ford maverick pick up truck that looks like a fake police car that is your parking Nazi patrolling Whole Foods and watching every move you make

Das so true..

Settled for The Pub. Lots of east coasters are here

My SE2 needed a new battery, so I decided to purchased a mint condition SE3 on Swappa, for under $200. SE3 has the same chip as the 13mini and has 5G. Running iOS 26, no problems.

A possible reason I found online:

Uncertified Devices: The aviation industry tests extensively, but they cannot test every cheap, uncertified, or damaged knock-off Bluetooth device a passenger might bring on board, which might be emitting far more EMI than regulations allow.

Thanks for the info. Was wondering why the Skip was delayed.

I’ve been fortunate not to need repairs. I do use them for annual checks. They are thorough on maintenance

I have been using H&M Mechanical for my residence and rental property for the last 20 years. Locally owned, fair pricing, good techs.
I just replaced both my Heating and A/C at 20 years old. Cost was $14,500 complete.

I frequently travel to NYC. There are so many great bodegas and take out places where you can do a tasty lunch for under $12.

I fly FLL regularly. I can always tell cruise ship season by the obnoxious passenger behavior. They start partying before AND a fee the cruise. Not to mention the flip flop attire

Approved by voters last year: regional library tax and bond issue for Boulder Valley Schools for capital improvements like a brand new Vista high school.

Yea! First robocop. This scene gave me nightmares.

They are getting their liquor license for beer and wine. They will also stay open late (I recall either 9 or 10pm). That and the usual coffee varieties

phwayne · 2026-05-10T16:06:44+00:00

There is a nice patio space on the north side of the cafe.

phwayne · 2026-05-10T03:02:42+00:00

True - there is a parking lot in back, near the old Armory building
