Now you got me curious if I can slip a 128GB card into my dumbphone. HMMM...

Probably. It's never failed on me. I'm using 64gb cards in a bunch of 32gb only devices.

Nice looking meat. Interesting video, never thought of even trying that, but it would make my life WAY easier....so guess who is going to do a comparison test?

I'm interested as well since I'm so damn lazy smile.png

Considering I can buy prime strip for about $4/lb but HAVE to buy the whole loin I will ABSOLUTELY be testing. Promise to share.

Buying tires online doesn't seem worth it to me considering the perks you get at tire stores for buying from them (free rotate, balance, flat fixes, etc.)

So I DESPISE shopping at Walmart and will do everything I can not to.  Gavin has been extremely good as of late and I told him I'd get him a prize.  The other day he saw a commercial for MArio Kart 8 and decided that's what he wants, so I get online to get prices, and low and behold, Walmart had it for $48 versus everyone else at $60.  It shows it as in stock at my local store, so I drive over there, walk up to the counter and tell the guy what I want.  He tells me $64.xx.  So naturally I ask WTF and show him the price online.  I ask him why the price difference, and he tells me the $48 is online only and I can order online, choose the option to pick up at store, wait 30 minutes and it will be ready.  I ask if they price match competitors and he says yes, so then I ask why he can't price match his own website and I'm told it's against policy, but if I can find it online somewhere else, he can price match right there.  The guy couldn't understand my frustration.  So, I am guaranteed to never shop there again.

There are no tire stores around here that do that.  Well, they may, but they build it into the price of the tire.  I am lucky. . .   I live literally 5 minutes from the Tire Rack world HQ and I get shit dirt cheap, no shipping and they mount, balance, and dispose for $10/ corner.

We have been using Equal rather than fixed weight. I have had it in the 4runner wheels for 4 years now with no issues and the tread wear is almost perfect on all tires.

How fucked would the team be if you stopped playing so your toe could actually heal?

 

Well it's two teams, and not hurt too bad.  But the defense would have a gaping hole and the score would go up as I make a number of saves myself during games, just by getting to the ball fast.

Is that at all common for a player to be ambidextrous?

Always more awkward with another foot. I can actually kick it further with my left, but way more accurate with my right.

The best players can shoot from both sides when needed.

Generally my cynicism towards the general public is relatively low. However today it has gone up a tremendous amount today. After I got off of work I headed to CVS to pickup some stuff. As I entered the parking lot I see an older gentlemen who has a prosthetic leg, he is struggling to get back up after he had fallen down trying to pick up something he dropped. As I was walking up to him asking if he needed help, several people as I was walking up to him basically just walked by as if he wasn't there. After a few minutes he caught his breath, I then helped him up and walked him to his truck, As if out of nowhere people finally stopped to inquire if he needed help after he made it to his truck. He thanked me for helping him, I told him "we all need a little help at some point", he shook my hand and said our goodbyes.

Nice. I realized that my tires on my truck are not from Discount and I paid $70 for a lifetime rotate and balance after buying it from a local place (that is fantastic if I still lived local).

On the wife's car I only bought 2 tires from them bit they treat it as if I bought all 4 from them.

At this point and as often as I buy tires I can't beat the service of discount. I also find their pricing extremely competitive.

Not only hilarious, but one hell of a nice guy. I got to meet him on a USO tour in 2010, and for as rushed as he was he still took a moment to shake my hand and say a nice few words. It really is too bad his demons got the better of him.

I don't understand it, it wasn't like he was somewhere out of site. He was literally in the middle of the parking lot within eye sight of the front door.
