Now I just need to get my girlfriends polish dad to teach me how he makes his kielbasa.

Just bought what's likely my last ever home. It's gorgeous and I have a half loving acre landscaped backyard in a city where zero lot line home lots without a house sell for $135,000. It's good to own land.

:smug:

I'm now $335,000 and change in debt, however, and the wife is already talking renovations.


Fffffffffuuuuuuuuccccccckkkkkk

my house was 770k with a modest back yard, about 1 year before the housing crash. grats

The housing market can suck my dick from the back. In the area I live, prices are jumping $2-3000 a month for the most part, but both of my neighbors are racing to drive down prices as fast as possible on our street. One dude is hoarding pallets to sell, so he can afford to rubber mulch his backyard, and the other guy is gonna put a conex box in his front yard.

I'm hoping to sell next year, but we will see, if values keep rising like they are I will be priced out of anywhere I would want to move locally. It could always crash too, which would be just as bad.

No offense but I'm hoping it takes a steamy dump here in the next year or two. Plans on moving and buying the first house is on the table once the wife and I are student loan debt free.

After that then yeah I'm in the same boat let them housing prices soar like the buffalo.

So, I'm wondering if this is a valid thing to market.

What if fortune 500 companies sent managers or prospective people to a 1-2 week boot camp where big mean people just yell at them and make them do erroneous poo poo, like what we had to endure, but market the whole thing around leadership tactics, acting under pressure and all that poo poo.

Companies send people to the desert to sweat lodges for thousands of dollars, at least here they can feel like they accomplished something at the end, they can go back to their respective companies with *when I was in boot...* and for whoever agrees with me can open up a chevy/dodge dealership right across the street where graduation will be.

Mine was a carpenter until his last breath, when he cut off his index finger, went to the doctor to have it stitched back on and it threw the clot the next day while he was trying to fix the cut he hosed up on the porch swing he was building when he cut himself. and caused a massive stroke. It was his first time cutting himself with a power-saw after 55+ years of making furniture, too. Dude just couldn't let go of a gently caress up, I guess

There used to be a rash of companies like this, but they did paintball poo poo for a couple of days and reinforced teamwork and tactical thinking, but in reality they just had IT and salespeople running around NDing paintballs in to their teammates while the staff there were just making sure people were wearing safety gear

Pretty sure this would be a thing that could be done. You just have to brand it right so people know what they're getting into so some overly sensitive carebear doesn't get too butthurt.

I spent my first day on summer break (till Monday, anyway) making a pot roast. All the cooking chat got me to re-approach cooking a chuck roast.

Started off with a 2 lb very nicely marbled chuck roast. Spent some time patting it dry and cutting off any excess fat. Made a dry rub of chili powder, onion powder, thyme, oregano, salt, black pepper, and some McCormick cowboy rub powder.

Heated up the cast iron skillet with a few tablespoons of olive oil and medium-low temp. Browning nicely on all sides.


All done browning!


Browned meat goes in the crock pot while the broth (beef broth, sriracha, Worcestershire sauce, garlic paste, a bit of steak sauce, and balsamic vinegar) and fat chunks gets up to a boil.


Carrots and potatoes go in.


Broth added. See you in 4 hours.

I made some spare ribs lastnight. Put a rack of some chipotle dry rubbed ribs in with a can of beef consomme, 2 Tbl spoons of olive oil, 1 Tbl spoon balsamic vinegar and a peeled/pureed garden tomato and let them chill in the slow cooker for 8 hours. Brought them in to work for lunch and fed the office with that and 2 loaves of french bread from the bakery.
