@MikeBotkin_ ~15 min by bike or walk. There are no “absolutes” but I’d need an obscene amount of additional comp to spend even 30min each way in the car just to commute daily (unless my job function changed dramatically). Irregular site/office visits totally negotiable/in scope.

@andy_josuweit @roblabonne @apage3255 Agree. Can’t get cold water in Phoenix half the year. Pool is 45 right now tho. Perfect!

@JeremiahOshan Results based analysis: He utterly dominated Mexico. Won continental tournaments. Qualified for the World Cup and advanced past the group stage. If you offered the post-klinsi fandom those outcomes after last cycle they’d say sign him for life.

@DaviesCollin I don’t get it. Why did they never show a replay? Was it the injury?

[Paul Barr @pbarr96]

@kclemson I use to obsess about the “recipe” for my chili. Then I discovered there is a MASSIVE margin for error so now it’s “dump and pour”. I made some today too!

@AaronCampeau Just don’t forget to turn the little freezer on.

@AaronCampeau @torqpenderloin @YinkaDoubleDare Yep. Bobby Flay Mesa grill in Caesar’s LV if you ever get the chance.

@pag3rd @Microsoft @SoundTransit That is amazing PaulGus. And congratulations on two zero. You’re a special leader.

@LikkitP I still think they’ll make the playoffs.

[Paul Barr @pbarr96]

@LikkitP I wrote off the entire season the instant they won the trophy. Actually assumed they would miss the playoffs with JP down.

Still worth it. An unbeaten playoff run means nothing without trophies, and CCL was the biggest in the land.

@duckduckjeep Diesel ftw my friend.

[Paul Barr @pbarr96]

@jensenharris Agree.

@practicalgolf I’ll have to think a while but 4-putting a 9-footer for eagle is definitely up there on my list.

@drgurner @BowTiedCommoner Outstanding debt counts as an open loop to me, even if logic says carrying some debt is a “good thing”, so at least you are still internally consistent. Closing open loops to reduce cognitive load.

@GoodsCapital Health care is the missing piece here right?

Spouse going back to work for ~$100k minus $20k+ income tax and ~$40k in childcare only makes sense if spouse’s w2 job also covers benefits to fund SMB adventure?

My math could be wrong.

@suedeyloh I’ve done this thought exercise for governance/politics and come away with the perspective the world would be way better off.

@SpiritofPines Bout time Beanie Babies had another run innit?

[Paul Barr @pbarr96]

@TaylorTwellman @CristianRoldan @SportsCenter Phenomenal strike and great instinct to hook it back across goal when everyone was expecting him to shuttle it forward to the right.

AND… I think Frei probably saves that. 😀

Did you know, @SoundersFC invented MLS clubs winning the Concacaf Champions League 😀

@TheTallestCoop Same.
