Is this place losing its experts?

[RootSkier]

Although that answer departs from the subject of which I'm a self avowed expert, and wanders into the area of general western water policy, which I know pretty well but whether I'm an expert is subjective.

What's your opinion about the Confederated Salish-Kootenai Tribes / Montana compact on reserved water rights from the CSKT reservation in MT?

I'm not intimately familiar with that one, but I could become so if you had a specific question you wanted answered.

[Timberridge]

I think it's a trap.

This is your area of expertise? I don't believe we have a Confederated Salish-Kootenai Tribes / Montana expert here yet.

[RootSkier]

I am not an expert on that and it is sort of a trap.

I am, however, something of an involuntary expert on Montana road and easement law. It's more exciting than it sounds, especially when one of your clients gets chopped up: https://helenair.com/news/local/inve...79f916f59.html

Holy shit. Dare I ask for further clarification of your role in the matter?

[RootSkier]

I represent the chopped up guy's estate. And some other folks on the road who were his friends and were basically ran off by neighboring psychopaths.

Two things you don't want to make in your home kitchen would be maple syrup and meth. Both require excellent ventilation.

Oh fuck.

[stuckathuntermtn]

I think you just lost whatever standing you might have had as "MIM".

Shhh. Shut up. Just shut the fuck up. Another whitebread mountain town no one who's got a license to know it all cause he got a JD. Shut. The fuck. Up.

[Core Shot]

Cake Farts?

Is that a thing?

I need to learn more.

Well that escalated quickly...

[seano732]

Timber, where’s the updated list?!?!

[BmillsSkier]

What just happened?

[bennymac]

Did someone ask about a grumpiness expert?

[subtle plague]

So you are the resident meth expert? That puts you in the "new money" category ?

Bummer.

I thought you'd be the chateau la Fite and and all around blasé expert.

Represent them how? Is there a civil suit in progress?

[TahoeJ]

Pretty sure we are flush in that department...

[garyfromterrace]

Oh fuck off.

I'm many things to a few people.

I'll happily drink a $800 bottle of wine, but my palate is not that tuned to notice the difference between that and a more everyday wine like Joseph Phelps Insignia. I think Cruiser is our wine expert.

[stuckathuntermtn]

Wine? Kirkland Vineyards ftmfw

Worth a google. Some people are into it but might have been a fad.

$65 - $75 is about the point of diminishing returns. After that it's just marketing BS.

[Ted Striker]

I'm surprised it's that high.

[Meathelmet]

Oh fuck off.

Now now, don't steal Bennys thunder.
Being grumpy is all that he is good at as constipating for extended periods of time is not considered a 'skill'.

[Brock Landers]

Can you still be good at something even if it’s not a skill?

[Lone Star]

Can you still be good at something even if it’s not a skill?

I could answer that question since my area of expertise is epistemology.

but nah
