    Crazy.

    I use a local small private shop that always over-delivers.

    Earliest on record for us having 100+ temp days consecutively. And people say climate change isn't real. Anyway...

    I'm a very fair weather dude with everything I do. Buddy of mine went camping on the coast some time back and his pics it was windy, wet and cold. My thoughts were "why the fuck are you there?!"

    That was crazy! I had to do a double take when I saw the "21" on the horse as it was coming up the rail. Watching the aerial replay of the jockey maneuvering the horse through the pack was amazing.

    The fucking desert. I hate the fucking desert.
    They found more human remains in the receding waters of Lake Mead. Big surprise. I'm surprised they haven't found more in the desert as the city expanded with all the building that's gone on here since the 80's.

    They probably did, but the foreman's got a schedule to keep, so he just said "put it back damn it!"

    It's like the town was built by the mob or something.

    Sands shift too much.

    Low tier hit: in the lake with you.

    High tier hit: dump in concrete.

    You’d think some enterprising gangster would run a crematorium for just this reason.

    You can’t take all the fun out of the job, or morale goes down.

    I'm usually pretty good about cussing in front of my kids, but I screamed, "holy shit, look!", when Rich Strike clearly passed for the lead.

    I definitely don't feel bad about the lost cash. I'd pulled it out of crypto profits, profits that would have been gone today anyway. Life's funny like that.

    40% of Bitcoin owners are underwater, which makes the average Bitcoin owner more likely to be underwater than a body in Lake Meade.

    That's strange because it's supposed to be a hedge against inflation...

    I'm glad my son will be done with baby formula in a couple weeks. Jesus Christ.

    The savings on baby formula buying from Costco was ridiculous compared to every other retailer. That was years ago, don't know what the price difference is now.

    You know that trucking companies that haul baby formula often have armed security escorts?

    We order it through my wife's work and she gets a decent discount on it, but we had to go out and get some because we were running low and there was a 2 day gap between running out and when the next shipment arrived. My wife had to go to 4 different stores just to find it.
