  1. Great coffee.

    I roasted my own coffee and sold some as a home roaster business for several years (more than 10 IIRC). Finally quit and sold my roasters in 2017 when most buyers slowed down. That being the pretext and my limited bona fides, here's the caveat with coffee: (almost) Any coffee will taste a...

  2. Taxes

    The graduated tax brackets suck. Once you hit a threshold, every dollar over that amount gets taxed at a higher rate. After $94K (Married, filing jointly. I had thought it was $89K in another post) the rate goes form 12% to 22%. After $201K it goes to 24% After $383K it's 32% And if you are...

    Jury duty

  4. Jury duty

    I've told my tale before, but the bottom line is the empaneling instructions today almost always include you agreeing to set aside all (ALL) personal (religious or moral or even just logical) beliefs and decide solely on the law as explained by the court. I just can't and won't do that. If...

    Jury duty

    My father did something similar to get out of sitting on an army court martial in Vietnam.

    Jury duty

    Tell the attorney doing the empaneling that you are a firm believer in Jury Nullification and that you cannot set aside all personal and religions beliefs and solely follow the law as presented to you. There are bad laws and juries should be able to find such laws unenforceable. The very term...

  7. Any F1 fans here??

    Love Suzuka I may stay up or wake up to watch the race. Good to see McLaren doing better, I wish Williams could have a comeback, even if the family don’t own it anymore. I did watch recaps of the 1990 and 1991 seasons this past week. Man, the cars broke down a lot. Will LouHam make...

  8. This Is Your Pilot Slurring...............................

    Thank you. It never made sense otherwise

    Ahhhhhh MRE Memories........

    Omelet with "ham". Grossest, slimiest thing ever packaged. I ate dehydrated pork patties and dehydrated beef patties with the dehydrated ketchup. Others couldn't stand them.

  10. This Is Your Pilot Slurring...............................

    According to an acquaintance who flew for a major US airline: in some instances the first thing a pilot would say when busted for being inebriated is, "I have a problem, I need to talk about rehab." And then the pilot union gets involved and the guy goes to rehab and keeps his job. Don't...

  11. USPS - Anybody else having trouble?

    This morning I got the email saying ups was delivering my package. At 11:00’something I got the text saying delivered. My lovely wife confirmed. I don’t think it went through Atlanta. So maybe one day late.

  12. USPS - Anybody else having trouble?

    Looking like UPS is sliding down the slope of “whenever delivery “. I ordered something last Thursday and got the “label created”email. Sunday I got a text saying the package would be delivered Monday. Wow, fast. This afternoon I got the email saying “yeah, it’s coming sometime “...

    EVs are NOT America's future!

    Just another bit of odd terminology

    EVs are NOT America's future!

    But He'll be riding on a cloud. Must be a hydrogen powered vehicle after all. (JK)

    EVs are NOT America's future!

    1. I'm not implying you necessarily said EVs are good for the environment, and 2. The environmental impact issue... IS what the .gov is pushing to make people buy and use EVs. Multiple current studies have shown how horrible mining for EV battery material is. Chile is experiencing a change...

    I bet….

    EVs are NOT America's future!

    See below See above. Seriously, the issues of range, charging, and the "forced mandates" are the killers. I know a lot of, ahem, "health care professionals" that drive EVs. But if they travel any distance greater than a regular commute they all go ICE. They were able to afford the EV via...

  18. The Official ODT Bourbon Club

    No feathers ruffled. I’m perturbed that they aren’t completely honest in their advertising. I like the taste of 13th Colony, and may keep buying it, but dislike obfuscation and misinformation. I also am not impressed with Buffalo Trace. And I like “grassy” ryes, like 95% rye mash...

  19. The Official ODT Bourbon Club

    What a literal buzzkill. I really liked their bourbon, so my palate must not be the greatest. I wasn’t impressed with the Moonrise Distillery’s stuff (Rabun County) but I saw several different types of their bourbon in the package store today. Anybody tried some of their newer versions...

  20. The Official ODT Bourbon Club

    Love it. The price edged up after their double oak won an award. But it’s better than the Calumet 10 year I had, and at 1/3 to 1/2 the price.
