OMG, that steak was delicious.

The awesome thing about sous vide is the entire steak is cooked exactly the same, edge to edge. There's no cooked outside, raw inside. The entire steak was cooked to a perfect med-rare, enough to melt the fat but because it's sealed in a vacuum bag there's no possibility of drying out. After cutting up there was a small puddle of juice, not a lake. So I sprinkled some coarse salt into the juice to make a minimal gravy for the steak.

While I was letting the steak rest I had a simple salad (lettuce, green pepper, red onion) with homemade vinaigrette (olive oil, apple cider vinegar, worcestire, frank's red hot, mustard powder, salt and pepper).

Paired with a 2010 Pago Cimera. I know Cabernet is the typical go-to wine for steak, but I really like a good Malbec.

I have such a steak high right now

Anxiety? Fuck no, I often don't check my ticket for weeks to prolong the potential. I play the Schrodinger's Cat lottery - a ticket is both a winner and a loser until you collapse the wave form and check it, or some such shit.

More horseshit, in the days after a drawing the media announces whether anyone won and if they've stepped forward to claim it. The only way to avoid collapsing that waveform is to live in a media blackout until you feel like checking your ticket. fun.

This is 950 for about 3.5m.

With an $87m jackpot, that would be about $25 mil after cash out option and tax.... leaving ~21.5m for construction of the property and building an ironclad trust to ensure neither I, nor any of my descendents, can ever lose it.

With a good 10$ mil, you could build a small palace with a harem of two dozen attractive women, and start building your own army, 24 or so a year. Plus, enough weapons to arm them, and protect your village with force.

Got conned into taking the niece and nephew to schlitterbahn Galveston. Many sunburns. The beer there is 10$. The turkey legs are 10$. The kids nachos are 10$. The water is 3$. The pictures they take on the rides are 10$.
Lesson learned. Many sunburns

Buy a flask.

Might need to.

The real question is why don't you already own one?

They're so convenient for all kinds of occasions. Concerts, church, funerals, kids recitals and plays, job interviews, court appearances

Dan - Your advice is good regarding mortgages vs. investing. The bottom line is that I'm a fan of "get both", and I like the idea of owning a land/home without any debt, along with sufficient liquid assets with which to pay property taxes. Call it a lack of faith in the market, or just a lack of faith.

I have to admit I was a Ramseyite right after I got out from under the thumb of the tool trucks.


Then my financial advisor yelled at me and made me get a credit card.

Word from inside a large heavy equipment company is the are researching the use of powdered metel and mim for cost cutting




Considering the source it will be done very right. And I have no doubt about the process or final product. They have a tendency to test the fuck out of stuff, because they don't like fucked up shit in the field.  Their QC department is a thorn in the side of our reman certification test guys.
