I've got a half off for you to add to the pot. Send PM.

Buy and hold, if you can. Lack of inventory will insulate the housing market from a deep crash in anywhere mildly desirable. Millenials and GenZ fucked over once again.

Monday AM delivered.

Sorry, 5 audits in a row!

First year accountants at E&Y and KPMG working on a large government contract don't get a sniff at the black budget bud, but good try!

You mean these guys? You are correct that these 8 congressmen technically have oversight, but the annual Pentagon budget is a rubber stamping affair (especially in this geopolitical climate), and has...

Glad we can agree on something. The "so what" part is important because of the way these labs are funded.

Pentagon (DOD) funding of said labs is a feature and not a bug. I don't expect MV to...

Ok MV, let's dumb it down for you so we aren't splitting hairs:

Say i have a laboratory, and it is entirely funded, supplied, and trained by the US military (The Pentagon). If/When someone calls...

This isn't about zoonotic pandemics, but good try conflating the issue! A quick review DOD press release and the wiki article on Nunn Lugar (both provided in links above), but you likely didn't read...

3 pages of this biolab back and forth, and not one mention of Nunn Lugar? C'mon guys. CTR was passed and funded by the US Congress specifically to dismantle chemical, biological, and nuclear weapons...

If this question determines whether or not you should be part of TGR, I asked this exact question to bennymac, the prolific Padded Room hate poster who doesn't comment or post on anything ski...

Without a serious correction in Real Estate prices OR significant wage gains across the board, how does one even afford their first house?

Yeah yeah, mortgages approached 20% the last time we had...

Critiquing someone (valid or not) then promptly getting caught in the same pitfalls, in the same post, must be highlighted for posterity. This boorish behavior should be called out on TGR, or any...

1. Benny was banned. This post, right here, is a straight up lie laced with a personal insult. I don't think you could have possibly played yourself any better, but here we are.

exactly. If you have snowmobile experience (i'm not talking about a trail ride), snowbikes by comparison are wildly underpowered, have a skinny track, and you lean them over to turn like you do with...

I mean, our buddy rides a newer 450X in all the same technical singletrack as us here in the colorado high country. He just complains and spins his tire/flames out when it gets really hard. Guy is...

All MV heard was a giant whooshing sound passing by his head, but i see what you did there. Wrong about literally everything COVID, wrong about everything Ukraine but oh so much to say. Wonder what...

Did the FBI also pay the TGR mod team to suppress dissenting opinions? There is precedent, and the mod team didn't act like their usual selves RE: COVID discussion.

My favorite part of the last 3...

Three years later we are dumber, fatter, the kids are not alright, and we are in the midst of a mental health crisis. This coincides with 40 year high inflation. People are just trying to get by,...

450MX bike or nothing when it comes to a snow bike. Even the 500's get complaints because they have more linear power and don't have the same "snap" that 450 MX bikes do on the snow. These things...

Thanks for the personal attack, cockbite. Show me on the doll where I hurt you.

You'll be just as wrong about Foreign Policy as you were about forced mandatory vaccination for an experimental...

I agree with every point you make in your last sentence.

When you talk about the Russian Regime, you are talking about Putin. You infer a few times here that the Russians aren't happy with the...

After reading a few pages of drivel, AS does have a point here RE: everybody partially shoulders the burden of the extra tax, not just the 1% and .01%.

This war has pushed the green energy revolution two decades backwards, exposed ESG investing as a scam, and given energy companies the largest profits in history, but make whatever justifications you...

It's been weeks. Why aren't there any close up pictures of any of these fuckers yet?

But the war machine stimulates the economy whenever we are economically in trouble, Jack!

189 Petitors? Pontoon/hellbent lineage, but a decade newer. Mounted with new black AAAtack 16's with 130mm brakes...PM me if interest.

Brooooooooooooooooooooo. This in the Wasatch? Looking like Mammoth Lakes with that amount of snow! Lots of shoveling here in CO, but damn...That's a lot of snow.

I ski pow, then i go to the office, then come home after dark and shovel a lot. I tend to sleep well when it snows.

Was on snowmass today, but good timing as it is darn good sticking out there currently. Probably best day of the year so far.

I am one of those foundation guys. When referring to structural concrete, we follow the plans as drawn by the SE. How do you pass inspection otherwise, especially on a big commercial job?

The glyphs on the Deso/Grey section of the Green are the giant panels you see in Ancient Aliens. Pretty cool when you are the only rafting group camped there for the night, and have a giant 10'x5'...

The picnic tables and chairs above international have always been good for us for what you describe. Only issue is you are always in the shade until late spring.

Well, yeah. When you have that kind of money, it magically opens doors that the average american will never see. Voter registration be damned. Here it is playing out in the RFV a few years back.

Summit has brought this up a few times, but any non fiction reader about Russia's military conflicts would put this as par for the course. They have a terrible mobilization and first year or two...

Never been to this place, but based on selection keep going there and asking questions and advice. RE: proscuitto. Get the imported from italy kind. Dont even bother with the US proscuitto.

RE: cured meats. Hot capicola. The end.

Great advice for today. The wind got to the upper mountain. Campground is always protected.

yeah yeah this is my backyard. Whatever. Speaking of diseases that are not COVID in the COVID thread....WTF happened to monkeypox?

Good advice Dr. You are describing symptoms deeper than long COVID.

This. I said it in the COVID vaccination thread (to see how that all turned out, look at current bivalent booster uptake numbers) when classic dehumanization tactics were being employed (I'll give...

we stayed for about the same amount of time. Super cool to see for the first time, but definitely made for TV like X games is with about 5-10 minutes between runs. (NO live stream this time WTF?)

Gaper Bowl at Snowmass has a nice ring to it.

You sound like a decent human and boss to work for.

It is easy through this thread to see who is:

1. a business owner.
2. a decent level headed person.
3. Who still lives in their parents...

This guy gets it, and has hired and fired along the way.

wait. What????

You're hiring for gig work but have expectations of them like a career employee?
