    The GT40 is just hands down the finest thing the Ford Motor Company ever built and whether its a '69 or anything up to '73 Id give more testicles and children than I have for it.

     

    Id differ from you in the Mustangs and go with the V8 Series from Aston Martin on my second choice.  Predecessors of the Vantage and then the Vanquish.

     

    Id finish it out with John Delorean's first masterpiece with the 69 Firebird

     

     

    ETA

    I do love more modern MOPAR but what Dodge was doing in the 70s was impressive in the stats but laced any soul in form

    A Ford GT is probably my ultimate dream car. 1970 Chevelle 454SS Chevelle probably number 2A. 1969 Boss 429 Mustang number 2B.

    I know where my 2B sits right now about three miles from here in a garage under a tarp. It's been there my whole life. They've probably fielded a thousand strong offers for it over the years and it still sits there. If I ever win the lottery I'm gonna knock on that door and not leave without the keys.

    Pulled pork reheats well. Just cover it with a wet paper towel. Brisket does too. I only slice what's needed so I can refrigerate the leftovers whole then reheat by the slice with it wrapped in a wet paper towel. Just heat it enough to warm it up.

    Yeah but a full packer brisket is 15lbs of meat

     

    I love smoking smaller cuts, Picahna and tritips are some of my new faves, but traditional cuts are just too big even with a couple on nights of leftovers.

     

    Our arguments in the TB notwithstanding Im not trying to just be a bitch, happy for you that you that you have a clan big enough to enjoy it and youve posted some amazing pics.

     

    I just struggle with it

    A first time homebuyer in a tough market can't afford to pay an agent by the hour for 3 months worth of work and 100+ showings 15 offers written up on lower end inventory.  Anyone that doesn't already own a home is being put at an even bigger disadvantage in my opinion.  Any non investor buyers I have now will be paying a retainer and will get it credited back if/when we secure them a home provided the home seller is willing to provide appropriate compensation. 

    What market are you working in that your looking at 3 months and 100+ showings and 10+ offers for a buyer?

     

    We just bought with one "showings" (our agent did the walk through and sent us videos) wrote a single offer and closed in 30 days

    The 6% commission, a standard in home purchase transactions, is no more.

    In a sweeping move expected to dramatically reduce the cost of buying and selling a home, the National Association of Realtors announced Friday a settlement with groups of homesellers, agreeing to end landmark antitrust lawsuits by paying $418 million in damages and eliminating rules on commissions.

     

    Quote

    The NAR, which represents more than 1 million Realtors, also agreed to put in place a set of new rules. One prohibits agents’ compensation from being included on listings placed on local centralized listing portals known as multiple listing services, which critics say led brokers to push more expensive properties on customers. Another ends requirements that brokers subscribe to multiple listing services — many of which are owned by NAR subsidiaries — where homes are given a wide viewing in a local market. Another new rule will require buyers’ brokers to enter into written agreements with their buyers.

     

    As someone who is about to sell a home this is music to our ears.  The wife and I have done this enough to come to accept that as the seller we're paying someone working directly against our best interest but I've never liked it.

     

     

    We mused about how great it would be to simply pay our agent (on either side of the transaction) an hourly rate like we do our lawyer and accountant.

     

    I'd think that would be better for the agent as well as the clients who are hard to please and burn much of their time will actually pay for it where an easy client isn't giving up 10s of thousands of dollars for a single showing that leads to a simple sale.

    If enough emasculated males in sports media complain loudly enough, NFL will changes its rules to oblige them. Soys boys who never played sports trying to tell NFL LBers how to tackle a horse like Derrick Henry. How embarrassing.

    Quote

    During a conference call ahead of the Annual League Meeting -- in which owners will vote on 10 proposed changes -- NFL executive vice president of football operations Troy Vincent reiterated the importance of a player safety-focused change, again stressing the hip-drop tackle is "something we want to get out of the game."

     

    "The greatest asset for any athlete is durability and availability," Vincent elaborated, via ESPN's Kevin Seifert. "When you have a play that has a 20-25 times the injury rate, it doesn't allow you to fulfill your dreams."

    You were saying?

    Watch golf

    Dont care for it

     

    But having seen things like Joe Theismann's bone coming out of his leg and Damar Hamlin laying on the field for what seemed like an hour and Daryl Stingly never getting up I dont need/want to see any more career ending injuries.

     

     

    Want bloodsport?  Go watch MMA.

    First thing your taught playing rugby league hit around the waste and slide down the legs. You can’t run without legs 

    NRL made it an illegal tackle and handed out suspensions for it this past year.
