Headed shortly to Camping World in Wentzville, MO to just do some kicks and grins shopping for RVs. Not going to buy anything, just want to get a more real feel for what we actually want and what the costs look like.
@Porwest in September 2022
Went camper shopping today and feel like I got a really good, real time idea of what we can actually get for the money we want to spend and what our annual costs might be. Still need to get some more information, such as what insurance may cost and storage. But I think we accomplished quite a lot. https://www.mylot.com/post/3524004/when-are-you-going-camping
Today I plan on making some cold crab salad. It's nothing special. Just similar to the way I make my cold tuna salad. Just macaroni noodles, peas, celery, imitation crab, salt and pepper and dill, and Miracle Whip. Any suggestions on other ingredients to toss in?
Come hell or high water I am retiring. That's it. Y'all gonna help me right? Bring those pennies. Let's get BCH to $100,000 a coin and it's a done deal. Every penny counts. If this crypto thing is going to be good let's make it REALLY good. Let's make it REALLY count. Y'all with me here? 😂😂
Activity here seems way, way down and FTs are sparse. How long before you think the lights get turned off around here?
It Seems Everything Crypto is Chaos Perhaps the time we are in when it comes to crypto is just the biggest test crypto has had to endure so far in its very short life span. Or it is dead. I have not quite figured that out yet. But of course, I am always interested in what the thoughts of others are on the subject, and when I read comments, I try to give more weight to the ones who are more defined in why they think this way or the other about the future prospects of crypto…
Been a while since I have written on read.cash, but decided to share some thoughts about crypto and am really interested to know YOUR thoughts about crypto right now, all things considered. https://read.cash/@Porwest/it-seems-everything-crypto-is-chaos-14ed10f7
Three months ago, my wife said she wanted a new toilet seat in the master bath. "What's wrong with the seat now?" I asked her. "Nothing. I just don't like the way it looks," she told me. "But it works?" "Yes. It works." So, on her insistence we went to Menard's and bought a new toilet seat. Three months ago. It still sits in the garage in its original packaging. Today she asked for the millionth time, "Are you ever going to put this seat on the toilet?" "Does the one we have…
TikTok is making some lesser known musicians into superstars, such as Benee, who's song "Supalonely" wound up on a video that went viral with 45 million views. Makes me wonder, if only I could get some of my own songs from my Pink Flamingoes album by Jim Bauer on a few videos, maybe I don't get one to go platinum and become a newfound phenom, but it sure would be fun and interesting, especially considering all of my songs are available on TikTok. For whatever they are worth.…
I have to wonder what Biden is thinking as he doubles down on his insulting MAGA speeches. One will remember when Hillary Clinton devised a similar strategy, calling Trump supporters "deplorables." Beyond that, where is the message of "unification" Biden supposedly ran on? How do you unify anyone when you aim to degrade and insult the 72 million people who voted for Trump in 2020? Of course, there is a reason this tactic is used. That's because there is nothing Biden can run…
After being back on noise for a few days now, I suddenly feel very much like the Jonny Fever character on the very funny old sitcom, WKRP in Cincinnatti, when he would speak into his microphone to "dead air that no one was listening to." 🤷♂️🤦♂️
So, Who Will Win the EV Race? As you know, I fairly heavily invested in electric car company, Rivian, when it IPO'd recently, and continued to add shares after my initial investment. I have slowed my pace down, basically considering I probably have enough shares for now, and because my higher focus is on dividends in other companies, I just wanted to devote more of my investment dollars to upfront income. I invested in Rivian mostly because I saw something in that company…
There is some "noise" going around that rich people create recessions and blow up economies periodically in order to buy things cheaply and become even richer on the way back up. Yes. Rich people do take advantage of economic down turns. However, they do not create them. How does this sort of hogwash ever even get any traction or serious thought?
While Rivian still remains to be a large investment in my portfolio into the EV space, I actually think it will not be THE winner in the entire EV race. In this article I reveal who I think wins the race and why, and why I think despite that, Rivian still holds a strong position in this space, even over bigger rival Tesla. https://read.cash/@Porwest/so-who-will-win-the-ev-race-e5ee7f63
The other day I noticed our warehouse guy sweeping pallets, to which I found myself scratching my head. The floor needs swept. lol
Beyond having anything particularly worthwhile to post this fine Saturday morning, here's a picture of our cat Grayson sitting in a basket before we leave the house as if to tell us that we were forgetting something. lol
Been working with a guy at Camping World as I am in the market for a camper, something I have not necessarily shared here with y'all. But this is the last one my salesman, Gator, sent me. I liked this one a lot, but I was not happy with the $40k price tag. I sent him a text back and asked how low he could go on it, as I would be willing to take a closer look at $34.5k, but he told me book value is $35k and so probably not a lot of room to wiggle. I told him to keep looking…
I have to admit that I was entirely disappointed, eager to find some recipes on the Internet for some silica gel. Unfortunately the package said, "do not eat," and I gave up my search. 🤷♂️
That awkward moment when you wonder if you should just hit the like button...or point it out. lol
A song that was just "playing around," which is something I do more often than not, that was never intended for release, and never WAS released, other than simply to share it. Recorded this back in 2016 and was just having fun. https://soundcloud.com/porwest/good-fight
