Right now, I’m working a lot and putting away money, but it’s not just saving for retirement. I’m paying off anything I can, putting money away for the boys if they want to go to college, and likely paying for private school for the next few years. I’m gettin while the gettin is good.

Yeah, last spring we went up there and it was trashed. There were a couple of appliances, a TV, and just tons of dumb stuff shot to pieces. Yesterday there was an old propane tank, folding table, car battery, and pallet someone had used for a target holder. The woods beside the range is...
We are up in Clayton for the boy’s spring break and I figured we would run up to Darnell Creek and shoot some 22. They love mowing through some and while Darnell has never been know to be clean, we spent some time in the fall cleaning up quite a bit of junk and hauled it down to the transfer...
At work we just switched from Lennox to York, but 99% of what I buy are commercial rooftop units. We have thousands of Lennox units and our maintenance team seems to be happy with them. I don’t know if it translates to the residential line, but we have had good luck with them. Time will tell...
When I was a kid I was picking up pine cones while my grandmother was mowing the grass at their house on Lake Jackson. She ran over a nest of yellow jackets and they attacked me. Don’t remember quite how many bites I had, it was over a hundred, but I faintly remember them coming out of all of...
Just crossed the 100k mi mark on my 2017 4Runner and it’s a great vehicle. I have to admit though, I am interested in seeing what the next generation brings. The new GX info was released a few days ago and has me wanting to update next year…
A large part of what you see slowing down are projects that were being funded on cheap credit. As interest rates rise, it squeezes the profit out of the proforma. Approved projects that started up over a year ago are wrapping up and new projects are getting put on hold until interest rates...
My two are 100% spoiled rotten. The old girl, “Pearl”, asleep in the back, I got from a rescue organization outside of Knoxville, the younger male up front, “Junior”, was adopted as a stray here in the neighborhood after no one could find the owner for months. He is the one that got hit...
89 years to make the first Fusion reaction with a net positive output? Oliphant would be proud, but $4.9 billion in private sector funding would probably make Richter even blush.
I am all for it. Would love to see a fusion reactor finally come to be, but for as long as I have read about them, say 20-30 years, they have always said there was a new breakthrough and it may only be 20-30 years before it was viable.
Seems he’s going to make it. Squirrels are interesting again, so that’s a plus, but still moving slow. Neighbor confirmed yesterday morning he was hot on the trail of two doe through her yard.
Fella is “Lit AF” on these pain meds. Just sits here beside me staring out into space like, “Dad, If I could see in color, I could tell you how each of them smelled”
Was really expecting a lot worse when I got to him. Truck/car that hit him didn’t stop but the gentleman that was behind it did and helped me get him into the truck. I feel bad but I don’t think I even thanked him.
Poor fella is going to sore tomorrow for certain.
During the morning rush, getting two kids ready for school and the wife and I trying to get ready for work, the dogs were in the back yard and one decided it was time to chase a deer in the front. My wife saw him shoot across the front yard after a doe and yelled for me to try and catch him.
I...
