Why would people put more than 250k/person (500k for joint account) in a personal bank account?

If we are talking business/commercial accounts I can clearly see a need for more to cover cash flow swings etc.

Dare I say that genejockey gets it?

some decks had the features which would allow repeats and quick access to the next song / songs - but still agree

DougRNS

Or one of these would work.

Not a fan but it fits.

recall some vintage cars that had a factory (?) record player

big john

I don't know if they were factory but they played 45rpm singles. Had a slot like a CD player and the record would skip when you hit a bump.

I think the car I spotted with the record player was a Ford with a retractable hard top

but could be mistaken

spotted it in a junk yard

good times - spent a fair amount of time in junk yards bitd

some allowed you to roam the yard - you brought your own tools and removed the parts you wanted

Whereas I had a schwetty 90 minutes of fake hill intervals. Texas is stupid. And while you're taking it out tomorrow, I get a recovery walk.

Bah Humbug

As ever. Hence my hope it truly is contained, but I have my doubts.

Local snow report with Benson.

big john

Rained all day yesterday with a break in the evening and then rained all night. Still sprinkling this morning so a club ride is out. Might cruise the neighborhood later. Should be dry tomorrow and a group ride will probably be available.

Supposed to start raining again Tuesday. There is flooding in parts of the state and might be more coming. Can't remember the last time there was any significant rain and now there is flooding and mountain towns are snowbound.

We have that same agave tastefully planted in our treelawn. six or eight of them of various sizes and ages

I thought only Mercury had the retractable hardtop. It's the only one I ever saw anyway. But then Ford Lincoln Mercury was a thing
I also spent time in junkyards, and frequently went in with my own tools.

I believe the big worry is companies with millions in SVB, and whether their payroll checks would clear, plus of course the loss of corporate capital.

Huh! On last week's ride I topped out at 84.2 kph. Today I was climbing 17% grades. Don't know my own strength

Last evening I watched Stage 15 of the 2016 Vuelta. The one where Contador and Quintana were in the break right out of the chute. 91 riders finished outside of the time cut-off, including almost all of Team Sky, and disappointingly, the judges let them continue to race. I was at the time looking forward to watching the final stages with a much smaller field.

Be sure to keep that nipple dust.

If you think lovely thoughts, and sprinkle just a little nipple dust over your bike, your wheels can fly.

Did Mrs Datlas paint the picture.

Mrs. GeneJockey underwent a Mohs procedure at the Dermo on Thursday for a basal cell carcinoma on her forehead. Basal Cell is the lowest grade of skin cancer, the one that is generally referred to almost dismissively, which is comforting. In this procedure, they slice off a thin layer of skin they think might contain the entire lesion, then do a quick examination to see if they got all of it. If not they go back and take another slice. Lather, rinse repeat.

Anyway, they got all of it, but the poor dear was at the Dermo ALL DAY, and came out with a big bandage on her forehead. This is on top of the black eye she got last week when her foot missed the running board on her Sienna and she hit the door with her face. And now her eye under the area they worked on is swollen. Poor thing looks like she was in a fight! She said, "I'm definitely not going to church tomorrow!" and I said, "Good! Somebody there would call the cops on me!"

She grew up in Arizona and Florida before the advent of effective sunscreen, and has generally been more lax about putting it on than I am (I use at least 30 SPF on neck/ears/face even in January), but I think she'll be more diligent about it now.
