    Hey, Wyoming, you brought a woof to a bar? Montana...hold my beer

    Women like that were the inspiration for a catchy one hit wonder Buckcherry song

    Fixing social security

    I don’t cherry pick, I don’t believe any of it. My point is that it’s a slippery slope to invoke the Bible. And your opponents will quote what they need to. It happens all the time throughout history, such as during slavery times. To the financial point, I agree with you for the most part...

    Fixing social security

    I’m not religious so I have no dog in this fight, but I know enough to realize the Bible can be easily cherry picked to suit any occasion. So your lack of biblical “bootstraps” can be countered with 2 Thessalonians 3:10. If a man won’t work, then let him not eat.

    Journaling

    As a teenager just getting into hunting I kept a journal. I only waterfowl hunted them and it’s pretty fun to read the stories now. Lots of drama with my younger brother as I was learning to reverse in a boat with a stick shift. We even had a few fights when my youthful incompetence lead to us...

    Cardoso was outstanding. No answer to her.

    Iowa/LSU Women’s BBall tonite

    @BuzzH , my bold statements about Clark vs Bueckers and UConn winning didn’t exactly age well. Weird game tho. I’ll be rooting for Iowa now, gonna be real tough and better bring it a lot better than today

    What's your side hustle?

    I have no issue with it. One man’s trash is another man’s treasure. I talked to the local charity employee, they said the amount of stuff they end up throwing away is amazing. I think most people essentially donate to get rid of the clutter. We live in a throwaway culture and in my town at...

    Iowa/LSU Women’s BBall tonite

    A man of my stature is above those white trash drugs. Pure Colombian coke for me. But even in my lucid times, I stand by it. More asinine to me than the GOAT talk are those that pretend he’s not even a top five or ten all time. That’s a much more comical debate. And I bet it’s partly fueled...

    Iowa/LSU Women’s BBall tonite

    @406dn , i appreciate your view of the game and have a very similar opinion. I still enjoy NBA, especially the playoffs. The All-Star game is joke though. Another awesome player to watch is Doncic. His assists are a sight to behold and his off tempo style leads to some great finishes for him...

    Not only did I grow up watching him play, I’m 44, I can spell his name too.

    Iowa/LSU Women’s BBall tonite

    Half the game is defense and Buecker is clearly better at that. And Iowa has been a one woman show so Clark can rack up stats more easily. But neither of us will convince the other. We will see come Friday. More stats for you though...

    Iowa/LSU Women’s BBall tonite

    I don’t really see how that’s relevant. Was Maravich the best college player ever? Is Lebron the GOAT (to me he is, but it’s not because of his scoring record)? There’s more to the game than scoring. It’s not an outlandish statement that I made. Just my opinion. Lastly, Vegas has Iowa by...

    As much of a baller as Clark is, I think Bueckers is the better player overall. I think I’ll put some money on UConn for the upset of Iowa. Regardless, that should be a helluva game.

    Fixing social security

    I guess, yes. I would promise to give you a basic level of living that will ultimately get you by. It won’t be much though, certainly nothing like you’re enjoying now. But I prefer that versus stepping over your rotting corpse or explaining to my kid why an extremely elderly man is gonna spend...

    Fixing social security

    I think a lot of the disagreement between Buzz and Alpine and their respective viewpoints held by many others ultimately comes back to basic psychology. Its well known that negative experiences hold much greater weight in people’s minds and memory than ultimately more frequent positive ones...

    Fixing social security

    Wrong, when the market was at all time highs, I did not invest in the market and the tax man was part of that. I’m only speaking for myself, but that is a consideration. I choose to pay off debts at some point . Your 11 years has been pretty cherry picked in terms of growth. There are...

    Fixing social security

    I can’t speak for corporate tax, and I understand your cynicism of trickle down economics. I’m just speaking as an individual investor. If I get creamed too hard, I’m just gonna pay off all my debts first. And invest in safer options albeit with less likely potential. My two cents.

    Fixing social security

    Taxing capital gains like income means less investors, and a slowing of economic growth and ingenuity. If you show up to work, you can pretty much guarantee getting some pay. If you invest, there’s no such guarantee. If I’m risking losing money and then there’s too big of a bite if I do...

    Fair enough, I didn’t realize the 10 million part. As a general rule I’m wary of more taxation but to this point, I digress

    Fixing social security

    Most peoples children are by far their most precious thing in life and while they are near the end, they will do every thing in their power to evade what you are suggesting and rightfully so. Even if your system was water tight and no way to get around this, then many people, myself included...
