Mother in law got me the beetle (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01IFXVTDU) when I got sick two months ago but it's 1000 miles away and I haven't built it yet. We're running out of surface area to display them but LEGO has been putting out some really good kits. I setup an eBay alert a few months after the $300 Porsche kit came out and got it for less than half price, will continue to do that for the real expensive ones.

Is it common for a lender to sell your mortgage after one year? One year of no missed payments and excellent credit on our end?

They do things like bundle good accounts with bad to dilute the badness.

Rhyno posted:Is it common for a lender to sell your mortgage after one year? One year of no missed payments and excellent credit on our end? It's very common. I never made a single payment to the bank that did mine, seemed like they made the money on the fees and then cashed out. Got sold again 2 years later. The last hour of work before a vacation is the worst. I'm leaving to pick up my daughter and then head to the airport in like 38 minutes. Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock.

I got to bust out my new hobby today and experimented with pouring plastic fishing worms. It was a good day. I even made a post about it in the tacklecraft thread.  https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3899268&pagenumber=4&perpage=40#post501123369

Oh man, welcome to the I flew out to Lake Tahoe to meet an old friend of mine for a snowboarding trip today, he's using it as an excuse to see his aunt and uncle, so I bummed around and watched him go sledding with his adorable shrieking daughter all day, then got fed a huge batch of pasta and drank wine and played euchre all evening, tomorrow will see 8 straight hours of crushing beers and trails on a board. Good loving times. In AI news, a 6'4" 250lb dude, my buddy, his pregnant wife, three snowboards, and a toddler in a car seat did NOT make for a comfortable 2 hour ride from Sacramento to Lake Tahoe in a Civic SI. Step one was removing the bindings from all boards in the loading lane of the airport while people glared at us.

Leaving on vacation in 2 hours! We sat down and went over all our finances today. With the furnace and other odds & ends we put into the house this year we're sitting at about $6K in non house debts that we want to pay off before I get a new car. Looking pretty good on that, if I can max OT in jan and feb I might be able to do this right in time for my birthday in Feb.

From the airport to the city line was awful. We crossed into Perdido or whatever it's called and it was night and day. We're a few miles from Gulf Shores getting lunch and it's much nicer but still a little trailer parky.

There are better and warmer beaches further south. And yeah trailer parks are a thing in Florida

Eesh. Started smelling raw gas on the way home. Pulled into the parking lot at my apartments... Popped the hood. The same fuel line I replaced about 6-8 weeks ago was pissing. My dumbass reused one of the hose clamps..... Imperador do Brasil posted:The older boy got to drive the new Si for the first time today. This will eventually be his car.

Wow that's poo poo. I once had a really awesome AAA tow-truck guy take me and my busted truck 120 miles from Bumblefuck, Georgia, to Atlanta in the middle of the night on their standard service. My coverage was for 100 miles, but he went above and beyond and saved my vacation that year.
