Grab a cocktail, have a seat by the fire pit in one of the Adirondack chairs, and savor one of life’s simplest pleasures. Enjoy yourselves.

@DLTarqytek @AntiLeftMemes Yikes - those SUV shapes aren’t designed to go that fast. Keep it under 80 my friend! 🏎️💨

@wingoz Mine woulda been a chili dip special 10 yards high splashing majestically into the water.

@FOS Congrats to JB - miss him on the CWS calls!

@Nebraskawriter2 @TERR1F1ER @ThoughtCrimes80 Correct - not an absolute. That was my point. We agree on why tips are based on a % of sales. 🍻

[Jim Hagestad @bonfirechats]

@Nebraskawriter2 @TERR1F1ER @ThoughtCrimes80 At the very least, they are taxed on actual tips, but some choose not to do what’s necessary to avoid the 8% of sales floor. That choice is not the same as the claim that all servers have to pay taxes on 8% of sales. I agree that it’s fair for tips to be based on a % of sales.

[Jim Hagestad @bonfirechats]

@Nebraskawriter2 @TERR1F1ER @ThoughtCrimes80 Allocated tips apply if the tips one reports to their employer fall short of 8% of sales, unless they keep records showing tips received were less. It’s to discourage servers from under-reporting tips. Many would rather pay the difference than keep records, which is a choice.

[Jim Hagestad @bonfirechats]

@Nebraskawriter2 @TERR1F1ER @ThoughtCrimes80 Servers pay taxes on tips they receive from customers and wages received from their employer before tips - not restaurant sales. The right way to “fix” this bill would have been to subtract the fee from the total before sales tax and recalc the sales tax to arrive at the total.🧮

@ryanfromwi @1776Dawn1776 @YorkSwampFox @Anthem_Singer Started 40 years ago during the Campbell Conference finals, but gained national attention during the early 90’s like you noted. FYI - I said “always” in the current sense, which is true. I didn’t say “have always” which would imply since the beginning of the team’s existence.🍻

@dachshund_heave Poor little puppers. Love from Chicago!

[Jim Hagestad @bonfirechats]

@DLTarqytek Agreed! I could stand to lose a few dozen golf balls next summer!

[Jim Hagestad @bonfirechats]

@richeisen @NFLGameDay @UMichFootball This is what it’s like being a Chicago Bears fan… minus the wins before the 4 losses in a row.

[Jim Hagestad @bonfirechats]

@BizNasty2point0 Paul, you stepped up when others wouldn’t, and you put yourself in harm’s way to defend those who were in a lose/lose situation. Credit to you for doing the right thing. The world could use more people like you. Hopefully, these douchebags are held accountable for their actions.

@barstoolsports The real shocker is Forest in 5th. Still tied with Chelsea and Arsenal in points. What is going on?

[Jim Hagestad @bonfirechats]

@WilMaxey @stoolgambling @VivaLaStool Due to a nonexistent line, Williams was under higher pressure. But due to his athleticism, he escaped a collapsing pocket and bought himself more time. But due to his naiveté and pride, rather than throw it away to keep possession, he threw a desperate heave into triple coverage.

@JudgeSmailsGolf Yeah, kid, park my plane, get my bags… put on some weight, will ya?

[Jim Hagestad @bonfirechats]

@KendoVT @FGDegenerates @kerristrug96 Still one of the most valiant displays of courage I’ve ever seen in sports, given the circumstances of what was on the line and that she had not only fallen on the previous attempt but had hurt her leg and had to know she was going to injure herself further with another attempt.

@Lou_TireWorld Any slogan you have to read three times to try and understand it—let alone remember it—is a bad slogan.
