I help cost out proposals on multi-million dollar projects, both in PW and non-PW states, and have a pretty good idea of the perceived cost (by what’s widely accepted in the industry) of each position. Here’s an example of what gets billed to a customer (no I don’t know the reserve on this, so it looks “high,” but it…

Lmao! I’m a Gen X’er but that’s a GREAT idea!

lmao

Should *you* make more than the guy in the plant? Serious question.

Hell yeah! Ma Deuce was my favorite! We had 50's and tripods stamped 1948. Shoot, that was in my second run in the Army, so 2012.

As long as they artificially create the bubbly sound that the Jetson’s car did when it flew (before being folded into a suitcase) and blast it over interior and exterior speakers.

What the actual fuck?

I answered above mentioning Duratracs. My older brother lived in Winthrop, Maine. During the March time of year, their front yard was mud during the day and ice at night. Every day. He loved his Duratracs too, and most of his friends up there ran them as well.

I absolutely loved my Duratracs on 2012 Xterra. Best off-road tire I’ve used. Not great on wet pavement (but a lot of aggressive off-road tires aren’t). I got a 2015 Xterra Pro-4x, and it came with new Cooper Discoverer AT3's. Much better on-road and haven’t really gotten anything but a little snow to play around with…

Sounds like a good read!

I’ll go with that. I’m no Trump apologizer (I’m not taking away from anything that you can pin on the big Orange), but fair is fair.

lol

Do you have to moot each counter on a counter-counterpoint? Like, mootcounter-mootcounter-mootpoint? And how many counters would a moot point counter, if a moot point could moot counters?

It’s a PERFECT vocabulary!

Nice. It really sinks it in when you do it in his voice in your head.

Lmao. It depends on which side of the aisle you’re on for which topic you’re talking about. And THAT is because we’ve been funneled into a shitty two-party system. Maybe you Millennials can unfuck that one from way before the Boomers? Someone has to.

To be fair - because you dared to stray off-topic - that bomb was in planning long before Trump was in office. This wasn’t an episode of Build a Bomb in 30 Days. Amiright?

Ouch! Zing!

Maybe only $$$$ though, if they had kept that old-ass Ferrari around and were paying for maintenance on it. I wonder how many maintenance issues were NOT done during the 8 changes-of-hand it went through? Aww naw hell naw... CP.

I see your 10 years and raise you 9 years. Honestly, I think it started a steeper upward trend when Bush beat Gore. That was the sticky wicket that old “Chad” caused (2001 reference). Then Bush became immensely popular, and by all things, through war, which caused further and further rift. Annnnnnd, here we are.
