He Turned His Passion For Fitness Into A Seven-Figure Automatic Business



I actually thought the quote of the day is what you were linking to at first.

Last month in the LC thread people were talking about immersion circulators for sous vide cooking.

The base model ANOVA is $50 off right now: http://store.anovaculinary.com/produ...ecision-cooker

eta... The fact that I wrote "I more or less work in..." instead of "I work in more or less a government IT department" is telling.
I wrote 'I worked there' in my post even though I still work there and have no immediate plans to leave. Hello, Freud.

It's kind of a win for democracy, right? I was rooting for them to take the nomination away from him in Cleveland purely for the lolz but even powers that be couldn't take the control of the election away from the people. (Who, it turns out, are all hopelessly stupid)

On an unrelated note, does anyone know about cars? I just got quoted for $1400 (USD for any foreign friends who want to play along) to swap out my rear calipers, maf sensor, oil and inspection sticker. I am getting totally hosed right? Is there a way to actually find decent mechanics or is just a matter of shopping around until someone along the line doesn't completely bend me over?

And done. I also ordered a 3000-series food saver.

super brag: Just did a home inspection for the new condo I bought. My realtor found in the tax records that my unit comes with a storage unit that the seller never mentioned (or possibly even knew about). The main concierge guy immediately told me that he has a list of people inquiring about renting storage units for ~$100/mo. Present value is what, like 20k? Today is a good day.

Without clicking, I have used my Internet radar to detect a vegan. Prescient. Correct book review is "lol vegans" and move on.

In summary:

Given where interest rates are right now, I think you're a little conservative in your valuation. Congrats, nevertheless.

As an aside, I think I just saw the future Mrs. BTM today. Not the literal one, but a good example. Looked like what one of your preferred instagram girls would look like if you added 15 yrs and about 15 lbs. Certainly not bad looking, but a little too jacked for my taste.

Also she was accompanying what appeared to be her biological ~4-year-old kid, so the ol' reproductive system made it through intact.

Also, apologies, but pics were never under consideration.

Johnson > Bernie >>> Hillary >>>>>> TRUMP


**** the system, but only up to a point.


Presidential powers have been expanded enough to where someone with the temperament, ethical grounding, understanding of the world, and hairstyle of my sister's Cocker Spaniel can't be trusted with them.

what's all this voting talk, is there an election or something?

The rich really are getting richer. But LOL even joking that BtM is in this group. Like the rest of us he is just gnawing on the scraps the actual rich leave behind to keep us placated.

Also, I really don't understand the fascination we have with politics. It is all just a bunch of liars lying for the most part, and we are supposed to sit around and pretend they actually believe anything they are saying?

I understand this is how the world works, and I don't have any better ideas. I just don't get what is so interesting about the whole political process, especially when it comes to presidential elections.

Well for me, I bet on elections like you bet on sports. The markets have a lot more opportunity. The problem is that the best platforms for making the bets have become largely unavailable to USA#1ians.

I guess that worked out well for me because if I had easy access to betfair I would have lost a ****ton betting against Trump to win the nom. I'm still going to lose, but it's nothing compared to what I would have lost.

I'm doubling down on Trump to lose the general, though. I should bet more, but I'm kind of shook. If I was wrong about the nom, I could be just as wrong about the general.

That is fair. I really love watching football (college and NFL) and would watch it without the action. But to be completely honest I am not even sure I would watch (non Warriors) NBA if I didn't have action.

"once you are thirsty, it's too late."

And everyone nods their heads, because obviously, once you are thirsty, it's too late.

This is odd, because I have been thirsty before, and I drank water, and it was OK.

My girl just discovered something really remarkable right outside the compound where I live. This has been growing there in public and nobody has a clue that it's there (or what it is, I guess). Except maybe the person who planted it there once.

I walk past that spot 10 times a week and never noticed lol.
