An old noob, Army Reserve, Paramedic, Dad.
My favorite time of the year.
No heating, no AC, no need for the dryer.
Saturday we used 17.3 kW and generated 46.9 kW
Of that surplus, 21.6 went to the utility for credit against our bills later this summer. (The rest for use at night)
Gas is getting ridiculously high here in Louisville.
As my wife keeps pointing out, “we can’t keep going with all this winning”
At work we use diesel, and I filled up the ambulance at the end of shift for $99.47!
That is paid for by the tax payers.
Her: “You never call or text me!”
Me: “How would you know?”
My dad got some Bluetooth hearing aids from the VA.
They work well.
Except once a month it wants you to log into the control app and pair them again. AND go through several small print agreements or you can’t use them.
Dad can’t see the check boxes so he has to wait till we come to visit.
The U.S. spent 20 years and trillions of dollars replacing the Taliban with the Taliban.
Trump replaced Ayatollah Khamenei with Ayatollah Khamenei in just 9 days.
The most efficient U.S. president ever!
I like #solar.
It has a lot of advantages but also has some limitations. (Something many advocates pretend don’t exist)
Where things go wrong is when the government steps in and pushes solar in weird ways.
Like setting panels over parking lots so the sun only hits it in the morning.
Saying happy retirement to CSM White.
40+ years of active and reserve duty. Five deployments.
Got to present him his @KYColonels certificate.
No better mentor and great example for others.
My opinion on the #BadBunny half time show:
I am not the demographic they were targeting.
I have not been since before the “wardrobe malfunction”
Over the last 235 days I logged 1,501.4 miles That’s 2,416.27 km in non freedom units
6 miles a day
Most of the week would do 4 mi in the morning 2 in the afternoon Sunday was 8 mile ruck Monday a rest
includes train up for the Norwegian Foot March
If an old man like me can do this you can too.

My friendly local coin shop is paying 8% under spot for #silver
Just like they always have
They take risk every time they buy
The price could drop 5%-15% before they can resell
They charge a premium over spot to cover their costs
That is how they make money
Same for comic books
I am always confused when people ask me #financial questions.
I’m not a genius and not rich.
I’m doing well and working hard to pay of three decades of stupid debt we took on.
Just because I sit next to you for 16 hours a day does not make me a good advisor.
Same effort. Will have the same effect.
The felon’s economic plans have more in common with Carters than anything else.
Price Controls, Tariffs, Larger Fed Budgets, Increased military spending, tax cuts for businesses
Ok #EMS and #Medical providers!
Remember these?
So happy we follow the science these days.
Went to my friendly local coin shop yesterday for my monthly #silver Eagle buy.
Was shocked when he quoted $98.35
It was just $51.47 in October.
I can only set aside $35 a paycheck, so no more monthly buys.
