re: Do any retirees “miss” work?
Posted by El Segundo Guy on 5/10/24 at 3:16 pm
I haven't missed having a job for one single minute.
Now I do have a lot of hobbies and animals that keep me busy. There's always hay to cut ot something that needs fixed.
But I still make time to go fishing 3-4 days a week and have a damn good time. I'm two joints in already and would be go...

Choose your hotel location wisely. That city is crazy as hell to get around, so you want easy access to some walkable great restaurants and sights. I can't remember where we stayed, but it was perfect.
Take a trip in the evening up to Lycabettus Hill to watch the sunset. Very good views. ...

re: How many people have gotten 15 years out of a car/truck?

I have an 05 Z71 extended cab I bought brand new. Has 215k or so and has lived in 5 states and been through 2 divorces.
Once my stepdaughter turned 16, I thought she would want my wife's car, but she wanted to drive the old Z71. So I bought a new Tundra for my daily driver.
Now she's off at ...

This is so freaking stupid. We've had permitlwss carry in Oklahoma for 4 1/2 years and it hasn't changed anything for the worse.
It's not like this is some new phenomenon and Louisiana is being a guinea pig. ...

Nope.
If they don't work or contribute financially, then they can get you. The spousal support lasted 2-3 years.
It has nothing to do with fault. It's financial support to bridge the gap until they can get education, training or whatever to be able to financially support themselves. ...

Yep. My rates in Oklahoma are very, very reasonable.
A tornado a few years ago went right through my area. I had some damage (a few loafing sheds and a pole barn), but I didn't file a claim because my shite wasn't destroyed and it wasn't worth the hassle to get increased premiums.
That storm k...

re: Trailer Bearing Replacement near Baton Rouge
Posted by El Segundo Guy on 5/7/24 at 12:38 pm
As others have said, easy job to do yourself. Buy a seal puller and a bearing packer. Those should be the only tools you have to buy and they're cheap.
I prefer the bearing packer that's plastic and hooks up to a grease gun over the kind you have to push down.
And don't forget several pairs ...
re: Are boat launches some of the most comical places on earth?
Posted by El Segundo Guy on 5/7/24 at 12:35 pm
Adding that with all the rain recently, the lake is 7' high. Also, a lot of logs, debris, etc have been washed into the lake with the storm.
I would recommend to anyone not familiar with the current lake conditions, to be very careful. A ton of crap to tear up your prop or worse. ...

I fish 3-4 days a week minimum. At least half of that time I'm by myself.
So I have had to b3come very proficient with doing it all. I'm lucky that I am usually at the ramp between 4-5 am and off the water by 11 am. So I usually only contend with guides or other experienced boat ramp users.

re: Does Money Truly Bring Out the Worst in People?

We have a little money. And I think it has allowed my wife and I to do things and have great experiences that we otherwise wouldn't have. So, money doesn't bring out the worst in people.
Greed is what brings out the bad. In-laws that don't have much feel entitled to ask for stuff. For instance a...
