I would think the connections to FLL would be crappy on American. I don't think they fly direct to FLL from DFW.

They have 6-7 flights a day / DFW to FLL / FLL to DFW.

I just went online and found 7 flights from DFW to FLL on 4/30/2025.

Well, I'll be darned.. there you go

Fidelity was kind enough to not show the daily results. Not a good time for a correction.

Not great, Bob

Got a 4.3/5 at the auction, so it must be pretty spectacular for the year. I've asked for interior pics.

Had to attend a funeral, today.. for my 401K.

My wife would be perfectly happen to never drive. And she seems to like my truck a bit (and not in a a tolerate it way). Not as fancy as her car but rides nice and has comfy seats. And is pretty quiet. The Acura ELS stereo is lost on her since if I turn it up above the level of background noise she turns it down because it’s too loud.

Here is one of the cheaper options I’ve been discussing with this dealer. They say it is in great shape, no rust, no smells, etc.

I mean, wouldn’t that be FAR less risky than a Jag, even one that is 10 years newer? Less than half the price is a strong consideration, too. As is probably close to zero depreciation in the next few years.

And the dealership is on the street where the pheasant pluckers are !

Had an unexpected surprise

Last night. Became a grandpa. 5 weeks before we expected to. Thankfully baby girl is in good shape. Has to be in the NICU at least for a few days but seems to be nothing concerning. And mom is fine.

5 pounds 10 ounces, so not tiny.

Congrats @stickguy, the fun is just starting. I know you’ve heard it before but they grow up fast even faster than your own kids.

I have 5, the youngest is a girl that got her permit several months ago. I don’t know how that’s possible because I could have sworn she was born just a couple months ago !!

Enjoy.

Those who don't learn from history...

My 401k wasn't left with enough to pay for a funeral @kyfdx so you're lucky!

Apparently, his astrologer told him to fire some national security folks, of course not (yet) the folks that gave us all a lesson in how and when to launch an attack. Maybe she can convince him that tariffs are taxes.

Wife made an odd declaration today. “You are better off getting an electric car and I can take that to work once a week.”

Guess she figures just forget towing with anything but the Sprinter.

Did you ever have someone say something that you don't know how to respond?

You don't know whether to protest, object, or agree so you just remain silent. Walk away and ponder the possibilities.
