Not sure if you’re being serious but a friend got me into it. Last pallet had an iPhone XS Max, Charbroil gas grill, box of 10 vacuum pump sensors, several mattress pads and memory foam pillows, pop up canopy tent, 3 chenille throws, 2 stainless steel air fryers, 30 sets of windshield wipers, TFO Mangrove fly rod, 2 padded stadium seats, automatic pet feeder with Bluetooth and camera, automatic cat litter box, GM alternator, 4” memory foam mattress topper, various cosmetics and accessories, 2 down comforters, clothing and a bunch of other odd stuff.
This is about the 6-7th one I’ve gotten and over 90% has nothing wrong with it and the 10% exception is minor damage so far. Trying to figure out where to store a whole trailer load and if I really wanna commit to hawking that much stuff. My friends have bought everything I haven’t kept for a fraction of cost and want me to keep doing it. However, that’s the whole trailer and it’s starting trophy fishing time ATKOT
Yes but how does one acquire pallets of these goods to pilfer through?
 
I think the final rain fall total at our house yesterday was a little north of 7 inches, which was the lowest in the area. A mile here or there was upwards of a foot. The videos from last night are wild. Legitimate rapids on residential streets.

This is like the 6th major flood weve had this year and instead of calling servpro every time, we finally had an interior drain and sump system installed a few days ago... had we not I assume we wouldve lost everything in the lower part of the house- again.

Our last quote for a flood policy was eye-opening, but it may be time to bite the bullet if we are going to have 100 year storms every other month now.

Flood insurance is indeed pricey - and it will be the same no matter where you get your quote, as FEMA sets the rates. That whole system is a complete clusterF that changes weekly. (surprise: gov't)

There are a few private flood options, but I know little about them.

Does Clark live in the worst little weather pocket in the country? Jesus, man. 😰


-Pretty attractive new bet at Keeneland this meet:

"Beer is acceptable", well GD glad to know that. Was worried I was going to looked upon negatively for drinking beer.

Not a Greyhound, but Vodka, pineapple juice and 3oz. of Redbull is a might fine drink and I do not GAF who dislikes it.
20 oz. tumbler filled 1/3 of the way with crushed ice
4 shots of Grey Goose
Fill the tumbler with pineapple juice leaving room at the top
3 oz. of Redbull, stir and enjoy.
*30mg of Adderall is optional, Not to be mixed in the drink(take before 9PM)
 
Somehow KSR got on a tangent about people don’t move because of politics and then went on to state everybody is moving to Cali.

Sorry Matt but you are wrong. CA lost a congressional seat for the first time ever. Most moved to Texas(gained 2 seats). And most say it was because of politics....and the fact they could sell their 2500 square foot house for $2 million and buy a Texas sized mansion for half or less and pocket the difference. We’ve also had a lot move in from Illinois for the same reasons. They also lost a seat in the House.

Finally, just heard him say that everybody has moved back to NY that left. May be true but they lost a seat to Florida in the meantime.

Would have posted this on Twitter but he blocked me for some reason.
 
PTI, the cat box isn’t Bluetooth but the automatic pet feeder is and has a camera and you can record a message to let them know when it’s ready. A must for any Gyero household.

Anth, it’s an 8 wt., 4 piece 9’ rod. If I didn’t have the equivalent of a sporting goods store in fishing equipment I’d keep it.

August, you underestimate telling a couple of friends and neighbors you have $30 air fryers and $20 mattress pads, down and memory foam pillows just how fast they tell everyone they know on the Facebook. Last one was completely gone in 6 hours. Amazed at the stuff people will buy because it’s a deal.

Gotta start unpacking the new one I just got and hide what I want before they find out there’s more stuff they can’t wait to take home.

I, for one, won’t ever need a doggone cat box or auto feeder because there will never be a cat in my house. Gross. Anything that poops in your house shouldn’t be in your house.
 
3 different times as an adult I've moved for a job. You should try it, chief.
Yes I should.

Let’s see...since 1998:

NYC -> San Diego -> Atlanta -> Memphis -> Lexington -> Dallas.

For the record most of the folks I speak with from Cali aren’t moving because of a job.
 
Anth, it was in a plastic bag with cardboard labeling stapled at the top. Just noticed the “for the fisherman” on the package as I was tossing it to the side and decided to check it out. I mean it’s in a felt cover that folds up but I couldn’t believe a nice rod was packaged so cheaply. I’d make you a good deal but wary of sending it without some kind of short shipping tube which it should have been put in to begin with.

SAE, I have a few Slings. It’s funny watching fish curiously swim right up to you in lakes not expecting to be impaled with a dart. Not much sport in shooting fish that actually come to you.

Well back to being a kid at Xmas opening boxes you have no idea what’s in them. Gotta hurry before I have to fight the lemmings that know I get one on Thursday’s.

Are you a registered reseller?

In my brief research it seems you have to be a registered reseller to buy the pallets. Looks like some crazy deals out there for people that possibly flip houses, etc. Saw some from Home Depot that were 20+ pallets with very low bids. Imagine the ship to cost is much bigger than what you pay at auction.
 
So in house we have 3 birthdays this week. Tuesday was my niece and she wanted to grill out so I smoked some burgers, wife baked a cake, and everything was great.

Mine was yesterday, and being that I don’t care much about birthdays I asked my MIL what she wanted for her Bday and it’s some Italian dish I make. No problem, so for my birthday I wanted something different to not have the same stuff over and over.

Chose Lou Lou as it has options for quite a bit of variety including cheeseburgers and pizza since I’m hauling 8 kids around.

My wife makes us 45 minutes late which cancelled the reservation, and she just couldn’t understand this at all. I mean in her defense, why would anyone cancel a reservation 45 minutes after said party was supposed to be there?!?

This caused the ever so famous, “so what do you want to eat now” convo that I do good to avoid. Not on my birthday though!

The car(s) decide on comeback inn, sure fine whatever, nevermind I’m making pasta tomorrow! Be cool Krazy, like the Fonz!

We get there, must have mask to enter. No issue I put mine on, and one of my kids put theirs on...........NO ONE ELSE brought one. Didn’t even consider it. So us two go in grab the table and sit, the rest of the group wait until employees are busy and no longer guarding the door to bum rush the restaurant.

After making it to their seats, we are promptly met with, “listen if your up for any reason, bathroom, switching seats etc, you better have masks!”.

Sounds good. In my mind I’m thinking our food is F’d and we look like Bullitt County out this mother.

Anyway, we go on being us. Little kids flirting with women, kids arguing over what sucks, getting judged for having a wife looking like she is in her twenties and hasn’t had a kid yet here we are with 8. Whatever, we used to this! Our 2 year steals the show from every table as he gives every lady in the place the smile and watches them melt...........

Apps come out, Pizza comes out, dinner comes out. Then some attractive lady from the last table in the place besides us, a group of 3 different couples comes over and starts chatting it up with my wife. Starts off with the “ok we’re taking bets here.........” and we don’t even bother explaining as we just go with it explaining ages etc, we been married 15 years blah blah blah!

Then this chick starts offering to buy my wife drinks, desert, whatever. I’m kind of confused at the moment because of course we already have old fashioneds, but is she hitting on my wife that appearance wise has popped out 8 kids? WTF. Then she gets kind of handsy which I’m really just ignoring because it is my birthday and she is attractive but never would I tell my wife this!

Conversation ends, and as she walks away let’s my wife know she will buy desert. Um ok, sure, however my wife takes birthday cake very serious so I know better than to even think about eating any.

Their table gets up, tells us buy and to save room for desert as the lady winks at my wife. Cool, thanks, buh-bye!!!!

6 pieces of f’ing cake roll out. I’ve awkwardly avoided the “so you getting hit on, on birthday was, um, interesting” statement, but trust tonight when I’m cooking more pasta and irritated something will pop out.

Can’t wait!

Dog house again, for yet another UK football game. Damn the luck!

So you must live under bridges or in cardboard boxes. That explains why you’re single and sleeping with a dog.

Dammit Chief, quit getting all technical and trying to ruin the God given right of people trying to get come- uppance on the cheap. Guess I might as well prepare to get arrested for helping people get stuff Bezo’s considers trash.

I’m cool with it bro. I’d like to get in on a pallet at some point. I see a few places near me do it so I could avoid shipping costs.
