We were planning a small gathering of friends for the 4th of July. Three or four couples, have some lobster and steamers, take the pontoon boat out for a while, light some fireworks off later. Somehow last evening it blossomed to 32 people. Moral of the story, do not leave your wife unattended out on the porch with 1.75 L of wine and a cell phone.

Weatherman said rain and thunderstorms all day so I canceled plans to go to the lake. Our pool guy must have seen the weather too because he closed the pool for the day.

Not a single drop of rain, nary a thunderstorm.

Thanks bro.

Get on down to Florida.. only rains for an hour. It can be highly unpredictable when that hour is. But then you can get on with your life.

Go to costco next time for your phone or get one off amazon. Better deal, free phone cover and extra crap. Plus you only pay tax on what you pay for the phone. So if you get a phone for .99 cents you pay tax on the 99 cents vs buying an iphone for 99$, but having to pay tax on the retail price of 700$. costco also gives you a month or so try out as many phones as you want before you have to commit to one.

I bought the last 2 rounds of phones from them because they were the cheapest... the customer service was so bad I swore I would never go back... dropped my phone last week (and my backup yesterday), heading to Costco tomorrow.

I've been trying to convince my wife that we should move there for two years now... She says she would miss snowy winters. She has horrible taste in climates. Lucky for me she has horrible taste in men as well. That's why I got her lol.

Move to North Carolina...Charlotte is the shi*t. In the "winter", you can make the 1.5-2 hour to the mountains and hit the slopes, and then come back to Charlotte, and go riding with a wetsuit on the same day.....win win!

Yeah I was in the Greenville area for my barrage of interviews. That's a really pretty part of the country. Southern hospitality etc etc.

Nice topography, smoky mountains, lots of history, trees, southern accents, southern food.......

I'm a machinist. Im sure there is machining there but the type of machine I'm skilled with (swiss lathe) is typically only found in the medical device industry and a select few armory companies who produce silencers. I could run another more common type of machine but I wouldn't be able to demand very good money to do so. I chose to focus my career on this type of machine because the demand is higher, and therefore the $ is better. At the same time I screwed myself because finding a new job is much harder lol

Here on the 'X' mostly
I always dream about moving to Florida until I go there. It is just too damn hot and humid. Maybe when I'm 90 and need the heat. I am leaning more towards VA or the Carolinas.
