  1. I do as well. I like feeling like I’m on the course walking next to the players and can hear the convos with their caddies...and the occassional JT f-bomb lol. I don’t need the ‘get in the hole’ drunk fan yells after a tee shot.
  2. I’ve tolerated it a tad more this summer but I still despise it.
  3. Warm/dry summer, cool/wet fall...leads to a warm/dry winter. Just how we drew it up.
  4. This is a good perspective as to why the wealth gap has increased while shrinking the middle class:
  5. I know what you are doing but it doesn’t start there. It’s part of the problem, sure. But the income distribution is the key driver where other problems branch off from.
  6. It will happen but the bite isn’t as big so onto late summer/early fall coc.
  7. No country is utopian but they are consistently ranked high to live and raise a family...and that’s not by coincidence. America has fallen further and further down the ranks since the 90s. Maybe we need start examining what MAGA really means and how to achieve it?
  8. Yea. I’ve been to Denmark, Netherlands, Belgium (and other Euro)...great countries to live and raise a family.
  9. FedEx Cup playoffs plus majors in the fall...can’t beat it, even without fans.
  10. Yea, it showered a tick here. But don’t worry drought downers...we’ll get plenty of rain in the winter.
  11. If only our Constitution did the same and actually lived up to its promise of ‘all men are created equal’: “Iceland achieved top-10 rankings in all categories and was number one in safety,” says Fergusson, who points out that Iceland is also a world leader in human rights. “No matter the origins of a child or who they turn out to be, Iceland’s constitution ensures they will be treated unequivocally as an equal.”
  12. We just beat out Mexico for the worst OECD country to raise a family. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.forbes.com/sites/laurabegleybloom/2020/07/29/best-worst-countries-raise-family/amp/ As if things couldn’t get worse. According to a new study from the travel website Asher & Lyric, the United States is the second worst place in the world to raise a family. The country came in at a shockingly low 34th place out of 35 countries, only beating out crime-ridden Mexico. Topping the list of best places to raise a family were countries like Iceland, Norway, Sweden and Finland (which was recently named the happiest country in the world for the third year in a row).
  13. Late summer warmth is fine. It typically doesn’t have the same chokehold as peak season... and nights are usually coolish. Let’s not waste Earth’s limited supply of cold outside of winter anyway.
  14. I honestly have watched paint dry and it’s more exciting...seriously.
  15. When the results come back, the doc sees multiple fractured vertebrates from an angry weenie throwing his AC units into storage...
  16. The WAR is pretty stubborn so it will still make its presence felt this month but the return of the coc is near.
  17. Luckily I had a full ride to Seton Hall for soccer so I never had the $120k student debt that some of my peers are still paying off. That’s just nuts. If you have to pay for school you should chose a profession that you see yourself in. Doctor, lawyer, scientist, etc. Otherwise, going to college just because it is the next thing to do while ‘figuring it out’ may not be the best path. It’s kinda what I did until I stumbled upon logistics and supply chain my senior year and it turned out to be my career that I am passionate about...but I didn’t have to pay heeps to do so, thankfully. But everyone has a different goal in mind, not everyone is built with career aspirations at 18, and this is Amerka...do whatever you want.
  18. What was your rate beforehand and how many years did you have left?
  19. Nice to see the coc returning. It’s time to start fading the summer doldrums away.
  20. Yup, feels pike Florida...the armpit of America.
  21. I’ve had enough. Let’s cool it down asap. Love that late summer warmth but not as choked.
  22. She feeds me more than my wife does...I may just ‘switch’ women.
