And that’s just the 60's. 2020 is the same distance from when That 70's Show premiered as to That 70's Show was from when the show was initially set (1976). (22 years)

Buying a phone through an installment plan directly from the carrier is still a loan.

Agreed. I’m a big believer in credit card charges, and buy just about everything I can with whatever card gives the most points/cash back for that purchase (hot tip, the Chase visas are nice because they have multiple cards that give different rewards based on the type of purchase and the points can later be combined…

Not sure how it could be called a frivolous loan. You gave your social security number, you were charged only a fraction of the cost of the device (1/24th of the price (1st installment) and tax) and allowed to leave with the phone and the agreement clearly says that it is a loan from Citizen’s Bank.

Upgrade program is a 24 month loan from Citizen’s Bank. Once you make 12 payments, you have the option of trading in the phone for a new phone, getting a new 24 month loan on that new phone, and having the remaining 12 payments on the earlier loan forgiven. But the trade in is in the borrower’s option. If you don’t…

1) ANY time someone else is considering letting you pay for a large purchase over time, you’re going to get a credit check. Doesn’t matter if its a loan, if its a lease (capital or real property), if its a new credit card, etc. You didn’t buy your iPhone X from the Apple store, you agreed to the Apple upgrade program,…

Alternatively, Sassinak11 did a public service so no one else needs to respond to any of the questions (though I see below others decided to pile on).

I’m assuming he’s the employee in charge of their social media.

I mean there was that time in 2015 where they beat the Mets in the World Series. I think that constitutes good enough to pay attention to.

Way back in 2014, #Angels 

Also, he’s hit 11 HRs in the last 13 games and, as of today, he’s SLG .981 in July (not OPS . . . his SLG). His July OPS is 1.387.

Also, the ruling on the play was not safe. The umpire made no call (safe or out) immediately after the collision. After Lucroy was checked out and was being moved off the field, the umpire called Marisnick out (the official ruling on the play) and the Astros challenged that call.

At no point was Lucroy straddling the line (Marisnick was straddling the line before moving inside), he was always inside, there was never an opening inside and the outside lane was open the whole time, notwithstanding this, Marisnick stepped 2-3 feet inside and headed directly to Lucroy instead of the plate.

He’s only DH’ing this year. His throwing arm is recovering from TJ surgery. Next season he should be a starting pitcher again. Presumably they’ll go back to his schedule from last season (and while in Japan). 6 man rotation, so he has 5 days off from pitching between starts. He doesn’t hit the day he pitches (or the…

He won’t be ready to pitch in game situations (minors or otherwise) until spring training at the earliest. Tommy John’s has an 18 month recovery period and he had the surgery in October, right after the end of last season. If he stays on track, they can get him his rehab-stint during spring training.  Most likely,…

I was crossed up during a bull-pin in high school and took the pitch directly to my groin.  Thankfully I was wearing my cup and that the cross up was the opposite of what happened here (I was expecting a fastball and got a curve).

Even MLB catchers flinch when they’re expecting a curveball or change up and suddenly a 95 MPH fastball is barreling at them. Catchers use their advance knowledge of what’s coming to anticipate how to catch it. When you call a curve, you expect the ball to come slower, head in a different direction out of the…

That’s not where were at, that’s not how Congress works.

Good to hear that the bill didn’t effect your tax liability. I’d argue that it did indirectly harm you (and all other Americans) to the extent that it has caused a drastic increase in the nation’s debt without any benefits to the nation as a whole.

Not a problem. I still don’t think it would be too difficult to figure out. Take your situation this year (e.g., higher income, increased HSA contribution, dependent care FSA, etc.) and apply it to last year’s tax code. If you still have last year’s tax software, you could try that or start a draft return at https://ww…
