Ride Motorsports?
yessir
rough milesThat's pretty young for a Boomer.
I've heard tell...
That's when he popped his cherry, not when he was born.
As a late breeder ('69 baby with 15/11 yos) I would like to subscribe to Uncle @gonefirefightin newsletter re: early fun-tired-ment but alas I have no monies...

There's a pun in here somewhereI had no idea that @gonefirefightin was a Boomer.
Youngest old guy I know
Late-80. So depending on which sociologist you read, I'm either last year of Gen-X or first year of Millennials, but definitely a Xennial.
Bunch of damn kids...

Class is a breeze. So totally prepped for it. These guys run the training the way we actually do things in the real world.

Spent 30 minutes sitting in traffic today cause someone didn't move their minor fender bender outta the travel lane. Boooooo hiss!
Also, saved 25% on my auto insurance moving our gargling address to the new home.
That place is huge and I'd consider it a discount dealer. They can sell at low prices by turning over tons of inventory without a lot of overhead. Of course now in the after times said discount may be non existent but I doubt they hired a ton of people to deal with the inventory they don't have.
‘77.
Knee is 99.9% better. Hooray. Spent a great evening in the workshop with a mate sorting out his brakes. Ended up flushing fluids as there was a bit of shit in there. Final bleed was rock solid though, which was very pleasing. Brakes were 2019 SRAM Code RSCs, very well used, and front almost felt like there was scoring in the lever piston, definite notchy feel a little into the stroke to start with but post bleed it vanished completely, which was a nice relief. Also serviced his i9 rear hub, those are nice things.

Bonne fête Karine!
Thank god it's Wednesday! This week has been crazy and I have a formal observation on Friday so I need to get my shit together lol! I hate the end of the marking period...kids scrambling to turn in work that was due 9 weeks ago and trying to make up all of their missed lessons = me teaching every period of the day and not even getting a lunch break. Oh well...making some homemade chicken pot pies for dinner so that's a plus and plan on drinking a whiskey soon too!
Omg... Today's getting good.
Us to client board 3yrs ago: Hey uh... This plan provision you put into place 15+ years ago wasn't great and you should change it"
Client: "Nah. That involves changing documents and adtl costs."
Us: "No really, this is important."
Client: "we're good"
Us: "got it. I'll just keep this email for future reference."
Client (with Board member planning retirement): "hey uh, why can't I do this? All my other buddies are."
Us: "you remember that thing we told you about a couple years back? I can fwd you the email, if you'd like. Yeah, that's why."
Client:"can we fix it?"
Us: "of course, but it won't help you at this point; just your employees."
Client: "wait. What?"
Us: "Yeah. That's kind of why we told you three years ago."
Remember kids - there is a reason why your service companies, especially those with really long-term relationships, tell you to do something. You should especially listen when it involves them dropping fees to help pay for it too.

Good luck with the drive home @Toshi
For that BoD member specifically? I'd guess $20-30k in taxes over 3 years. That's not including long-term, tax deferred growth too.

Done.
Sadly, it appears I'm no Monkey. At best, just an Earth-tone Golden w/ low top sneakers.
I'm more of an earth wind and fire monkey
Sounds like a spicy shart
Fire Monkey perfect
