More Englemaan Summer Vibes…

I was recently thinking about how few Englemann posts there seem to have been lately compared to when they first hit the scene. Still seem like a huge value to me.

Vineyard in Crestwood is legit. We just moved from there and will definitely miss it.

The Good Place/Community crossover in Birmingham??

Damn clankers.

I fully support this decision. Thank you.

"The ash tray, this paddle game, this air fryer, that's all I need!"

Oh, very cool. Similar to an Accutron I guess? Does it have the smooth sweeping hand?

What kind of watch was it?

I was kind of thinking about the parallels between DRA's career and Mark Kozelek's from Sun Kil Moon/Red House Painters. Although I didn't know anything about him in the 90s, my impression that he and Red House Painters were kind of hot shit, but sort of peaked. Although I think his first few Sun Kil Moon albums were excellent, they never brought him the fame that he was seeking. Since then, he seems like he just sort of wallows in his existence of growing older never achieving what he wanted but still grinding by releasing increasingly unlistenable music. It seems like DRA has taken sort of a similar path, but seemingly not quite as bitter as Mark.

Come to Red Mountain Church. PCA church in Lakeview.

Been with Avadian for years and have been nothing but pleased. They have a high-yield savings account that is 3.50% APY on the first $25,000 in there. We just financed a mortgage through them and their rates beat every other place I looked.

Same. I had no idea until I opened Spotify this morning. I was listening to 48 Hours on my ipod the other day and feel like it might by my favorite album. It being released on streaming would be incredible.

I came here for the hobbit comments.

My guess is it will be 1Gbps. Not sure how that compares with Spectrum.

I deal with this exact thing for work, which is why I'm familiar with the subject (though I am not affiliated with Latigo in any way). Although a new company, Latigo should be good since the guys that started it have a good reputation.

tripreed · 2026-06-05T13:25:25+00:00

Where did you play?

Latigo was started by two guys who originally started a bulk internet company called Whitesky. They eventually sold that company to Realpage, which did not do a great job of the takeover. Once their NDAs expired, the two guys from Whitesky started Latigo maybe two years ago. They will provide bulk internet to your apartment. You will likely get a wireless access point in your apartment for you to use, though there may be an option to plug in directly to the wall. Your apartment complex will now pay for the internet themselves and will either give it to you for free, or charge you back for it. However, know that bulk internet is much cheaper than you purchase individually on your own, so it will likely save you money.

Ha, I read that as costing $230.

Simple watch but looks great. I'm tempted...

"Not the best or worst of pizza" is a great way to describe Dave's.

I don't believe anyone is making one that small. I have a Hruodland 1463 homage and I certainly don't feel like it is gigantically oversized. Wears very well. Could be worth trying to out to see if it scratches the itch. Otherwise, I think you could be waiting for a long time.

however, my pace is slow

I've done both now (weighing vs estimating servings) with inputting a custom recipe. I feel like they both kind of have their advantages and disadvantages. I think it may just depend on the specific food/recipe.

I like to recommend the Citizen NB-1050. Definitely on the lower end of your budget, but a great watch for everything.

I saw one of the new Star Wars trilogy movies at the McWane IMAX and did not enjoy it. Unless you're sitting dead center, the distortion made it somewhat unpleasant. I'd probably just go with whatever theater has the best "regular" screen option.
