    Happy birthday Goosifer and Paula !

    in General Chit Chat

    Just had a Treeguy sighting at the Goat. He caught me as I was walking out; my wife and I had dinner with a [much younger] couple who are friends of ours. Funniest part was when Andrew asked if she [our female friend] was my wife, and her husband of less than a week said "I wish!"! Andrew had me take a selfie with him so he'd have proof of life photo.

    Where's the goosifer been? I haven't seen any posts from him in a long time?

    Yeah, I haven't been on the board for a while. I'm subscribed to the funny memes and the beer thread, so I get to keep track of the offseason pulse of the board. I really just don't have much to say in the offseason. Thanks for thinking of me.

    Peloton Bike

    My wife is really interested in getting a Peloton Bike. It seem's like a lot of money to me, but if it's something she'll use and be happy with, I'm not going to argue over it. Does anyone have a Peloton, and if so, how do you feel about your purchase?

    If she [thinks she] really wants it, and it will make her happy, well . . . do what ya gotta do. But if she is just interested in an exercise bike with those features, the Pacillos alternative is worth exploring.

    I do wonder if there is/when there will be a used market for Pelotons. Or a lease option. Like all exercise equipment purchased at the beginning of the year, some are destined to become expensive coat hangers.

    One of my best friends bought one for his wife for Christmas. She can't quit talking about how much she enjoys it. 

    Is that the one with the vibrating seat option?

    Not true.....There is a fair, easy solution that would be easy to implement and would be equitable.

    Simply charge by the pound. The hardest part would be coming up with a rate per lb. Once that could be established it would make things less complicated and less costly to administer.:mosking:

    Hey, you trying to raise my health care costs with that idea! ;)  Seriously, I share your lament on the lack of progress on healthcare reform. Trump, like all politicians, likes to move the goal posts and or shift the focus on what he's done as opposed to what he's been unable to do. Lately, at least, I don't hear of him even talking about healthcare reform. I guess it will be addressed next term.

    You would think the Russians would be supporting a fellow Communist in America, like Bernie Sanders.  Or, at the very least, a leftist like Hillary.  Why would they support an American patriot that despises communism?  

    I guess they heard you. https://www.washingtonpost.com/national-security/bernie-sanders-briefed-by-us-officials-that-russia-is-trying-to-help-his-presidential-campaign/2020/02/21/5ad396a6-54bd-11ea-929a-64efa7482a77_story.html

    Yeah, Trump is supposed to be so anti-communist yet he would sooner pal around and give accolades to Putin than he would to a leader of one of our allies.  Go figure that one out?  Trump throughout his life preferred to pal around with the dirty tricksters (i.e Roger Stone) and then he is supposed to be the one to drain the swamp?  That's laughable.  The folks he likes to deal with and pardons are as bad as any he wants to drain from the swamp.

    I'd be curious to know what your definition of "pal around" is. How many minutes has Trump spend in live or phone conversation with Putin? What did he give Putin accolades about?

    I had to look that up. Apparently it's a way to get crispy baked (or air fried) wings. Interesting, I will have to try that. (I wonder how they would be coated with bisquick.)

    I had Rocky Mountain oysters in Co a few years back::::similar texture to tripe(stomach). I passed on a vasted (spleen) sandwich today while in Brooklyn.

    The spleen sandwich is a Sicilian specialty. I tried it when I was in Palermo last year.

    Would You Go On A Cruise This Summer?

    Larry, I have been on one of the big ship cruises, and last year we did a 1200 mile 2 week drive around in Alaska.  You can’t go wrong with either one!   I would not be overly concerned with the CoronaVirus on the cruise ship.  Just use your usual precautions while traveling. 

    The cruise ships, small and large are the best way to see the Inner Passage.  They usually include about half the time on land, Anchorage and up to Denali, then back down to the shore to get on the ship for the Inner passage tour.

    Last year, we did a land tour with another couple that started in Anchorage and went to Homer, Seward, Valdez, and then all the way up to Denali.  We had reservations at each location, as well as pre-planned activities, but had lots of time on our own to do other things too.  Contact me if you are interested in this trip, we had a great Alaskan based travel agent that planned out the whole trip. She was wonderful to work with!  I’ll even mail you our travel books and itinerary, because I would do this trip AGAIN tomorrow if I could!!!! 

    A group GTG/hunting trip to Alaska? That's a great idea!

    My wife and I did an Alaska inner passage cruise several years ago. It's our favorite cruise by far. Unfortunately, did the round trip out of SEA, so didn't get to go as high as the one-way cruises. We don't want to do it again as it could never be as memorable as the first time. Instead, two weeks ago, we booked a South American cruise in and out of Buenos Aires for January 2021. It goes down to some glaciers in Antarctica and back. By no means committed to doing it yet. Will have to see how things go.

    Too early to tell. Just put down a minimal non-refundable deposit. Deposit requirements may vary booking direct with cruise line vs. through a travel agent ( tip: Costco Travel is usually competitive.) Also, if price goes down, cruise lines will usually price match if you book direct.

    Thanks for taking the time to post this, Dino.

    I'm reading a book on tanning now. It's confusing with all the different methods that can be done. Unfortunately, the book doesn't really give a road map as to when to use a certain method for a certain pelt. Maybe it will be more clear once I finish reading the book.
