The outlines for parking spaces are poorly laid out. Too little room between the northernmost section and the one behind it. It’s impossible for a pickup truck to park there, but they do.
No lines for the first few spots near the entrance and the ripple effect screws up other spaces.

The last time we hit an economic mess with high inflation and slowing growth, the only asset that outperformed inflation was farm land but the stock market was a reasonable hedge. If you buy and hold, you’ll be fine in 5 years, but it will be a scary ride.

One of the unknowns right now is the millions of workers who have chosen to not return to full time employment. There are lots of theories on why they haven’t returned. If they start running out of money, and returning to full time work, we might get back to normal. As long as they stay away, the supply chain and inflation will get worse.

Keep an eye on theCanadian trucker revolt. If it spreads to the US, food and energy supplies could disappear. It could get real ugly real fast. I’m talking Weimar Republic ugly.

Most 10 year NFL veterans SHOULD have millions in the bank when they retire. Coaching in the NFL is an 80 hour a week job with no job security and frequent moves from team to team.
Why would some guy with a $10 Million nest egg want to start on a coaching career path ?
Plus, being 6’4” and running a 4.5 forty qualifies you to play. It’s not the same skill set needed to coach.

“America embraced and maintained an institution of slavery for centuries,”
So did the rest of the world, including many Native American tribes prior to colonization. Some parts of the world still have slavery in some form.

The worst winter driving is in sunshine states that get a rare snow storm. Drivers don’t have a clue. I was in Dallas when a rare snow/ice storm arrived. Only a few inches but every car around me was spinning out.

Being a coordinator requires an entirely different skill set than a head coach. Same thing with college coaches going to the NFL. Different jobs and skills. It’s classic Peter Principle. The failure rate is pretty high.

As a Vikings fan, I was following all the angles on Harbaugh, Ross, and Flores while our new, black GM tried to pick a head coach.

The real risk to the NFL is that claims of racism lead to
1. Labor problems with the NFLPA, or
2. Congressional grandstanding on the NFL’s exemption from monopoly restrictions.
Both of those pose an existential threat.

The most easily provable part of the lawsuit involves the claim that his interview for the Giant’s job was a sham.
Belichick sent a congratulatory text to Flores thinking Flores had gotten the Giants job. But Flores’ interview was still coming up and Belichick realized he sent the text to the wrong Brian – it was meant to go to former Bills OC and new Giants coach Brian Daboll.
The other claims will be tough to prove. This claim has a paper trail.

The Rooney rule, like any form of government intervention, is going to generate all sorts of schemes for getting around it. Every regulation results in an industry of lawyers and consultants looking for loopholes.

Once you start viewing credit card debt as something you manage, rather than avoid like the plague, you are on a slippery slope to financial ruin.

I’m also in the 800+ credit score territory. I think, to get there, you need decades of perfect credit history. They consider how many years/decades you’ve had credit cards or accounts. So, I think it’s mathematically impossible for a young person to score that high.

Yeah, it’s the bank’s faulty. The man who spent money like a drunken sailor is the victim.

In a 50/50 country, the political solution is obvious. Abortion legal to 12 weeks, then illegal. Will the extremists on both sides agree to this ? Doubtful.

Where do you stand on partial birth abortion ( crushing the skull at 9 months ) ? Just wondering. It’s legal, you know.

Russia is run by a few thousand oligarchs/kleptocrats. They have all the power. This isn’t a conflict between the Russian people and the Ukrainian People. It’s a conflicts between the crooks in Moscow and the crooks in Kiev.

“Opposing vaccines during a pandemic makes you a real republican....”
No one is opposing vaccines. We are opposing mandates.
It’s like saying we oppose Heart Surgery if we oppose mandating that everyone get Heart Surgery this year. It makes sense for those it benefits but it is insane to force it on people who are not at risk.
When CoVid vaccines were first introduced, we were told they would protect us from getting infected and prevent the transmission of CoVid. We now know that was a lie. The fact that Omicron is spreading rapidly proves it was a lie.
The vaccines lower the risk of serious illness for a matter of months. That’s it. That’s all they ever did. And, there are potential side effects, both known and ( as of yet ) unknown.
The vaccines made a lot of sense for the old and sick during the Alpha and Delta waves. They never made sense for the young and healthy. And, now that people have long term, natural immunity from having an Omicron infections, vaccines make even less sense.

The ratio of US CoVid hospitalizations to CoVid cases is about twice what it is in other countries. The assumption is that obesity explains a lot of that.

If a relationship has reached a point where one person distrusts the other so much they need to track their phone, how much longer will they be together ? You say your OTC suddenly ended. I wouldn’t be surprised if it suddenly began again when the domestic situation ended.

The extreme example was the 40-ish dancer who was extremely fit and acrobatic, did a great stage dance, who only ever danced for the same client. She worked about 3-4 afternoons a week for 1-2 hours. I’m guessing she made $200-$400 each day based on time spent. That’s $40,000 to $80,000 per year for under 8 hours a week.
