You could save $130 and just get another Samsonite and spend another $10 on a backup battery for your cell phone.

Just bought luggage today now that little man properly warrants a bag. MCF is high on Rimowa(f*cking expensive) but I've had Victorinox since our wedding. WS has a hard shell Tumi, not a fan. Ended up with 30% off Briggs & Rielly, the true lifetime warranty sealed the deal.

Got wife the AWAY ‘Bigger’ carry on last year, it’s great.

Honestly, thats the one I’m leaning towards. Did she get the hard shell or soft sided one? If Soft sided with pocket, hows it holding up?

As long as it’s expensive AF and you can slip the brand name into some sort of sillyass humblebrag, your luggage choice should be fine.
If you research products and consider anything other than the easiest cheapest POS crap so people think you dgaf you're a loser. Throw it in the old jansport bag and keep it real. Talk about a real basic *****.

I think it’s fine if everyone has that one brand or item they splurge on. Me? I love smathers and Branson. I’ve had (2) of their wallets and I think all their stuff is just super great. Needlepoint everything, that’s what I say.

Have you looked into black garbage bags with “cinch-it” technology? Try Hefty or Glad.
True story, they do that in Cuba. They bring EVERYTHING you can think of to their family that’s still there. We saw tires, garden hoses, soap, the works really on the “conveyer belt” when we landed.

I agree and we all like different things. I spent $1100 on an FNX tactical .45 because it’s awesome when a $500 .45 would’ve been just fine as well.

Thats cool but if I was a neighbor I would HATE that.

ITS LIKE RIDING A BIKE

- Nothing like taking over an opposing stadium and reveling in a huge road victory. The Auburn upset will always be numero uno for this wildcat fan, but Saturday nights total clowning of your arch rival in their house is 1)b. Bonus points for a drunken, raucous ‘My Old Kentucky Home’ as the time expired with the band urging the faithful on.

- It’s been noted by those in attendance but being able to watch the game from the friendly confines of 70 degree climate control or if you fancy, heated outdoor seating is the tits. Can’t hate on little brother for that. Dump of a location though. Hadn’t been down there in years and the place looks like the land that time forgot. Just dilapidated as hell. And really no way you can polish that turd. Fitting.

- Need to check out Tavern on 4th again. Pub grub looked on point and the gold medal winning domestos were dirt cheap. 90’s playlist alone made it worth a look back.

- In a 48 hour window, Clay Travis saw his Vols eliminated from bowl consideration and the Titans playoff hopes dashed. Aloha, *****!

- Been flossing a Briggs & Riley for 4 years. Blew out a tire last summer and the fine service folks had it on the operating table and good as new 48 hours later. Worth every penny for this road warrior.

- Current every day pour - Old Forester ‘Statesman’. Michter’s Rye for Manhattans.

- Pulling hard for Outback Bowl. Like the Citrus an early NYD tilt against a B1G foe, but not a gd thing appealing about Orlando unless you have kids. Jacksonville, for all its mediocrity and ****** airbrush huts, was a more attractive city.

- Some kooks out there are wanting to charge the indigenous tribe with a crime? Ha, idiots! If they really want to follow through on this, insist they show up in person on the island and hand deliver the warrant. Good luck!

- UNC game on the road at 5:00 on the Saturday before Xmas sets up perfectly to get the whole crew together and recreate the John Wall year soiree. '73, make it happen.

-The guy could have given them any number of diseases/viruses and killed everyone on the island. Got exactly what he deserved and good riddance. Idiot.

-Airbnb's in Orlando are insane. This one is $274 per night, 8 BRs, sleeps like 35 people, right by Disney. I assume these little neighborhoods are built to accommodate the religious traveling hoards but there are tons of options all seem to be 100% rental.

-Need to remember to just keep a list and do my yearly shopping on Cyber Monday. The Kenji deals follow on Twitter is great and Honey app for chrome saved me $300 yesterday.

-Loge could definitely use some of those infrared heaters. For being built on a hazardous waste zone PJCS is pimped out like an 85 Regal, curb finders, seat covers, Madonna air freshener, illegal tented windows, front grill leather bra, removable tape deck receiver. The works.

-The Hurt news seem really positive so you all wanting Cal to open it up should be all in on this kid.

-UL players talking smack to Josh Allen :joy:

We would but WCC has to be at PetSmart for level 3 doggy training lessons @ 1p, then couples cooking class, a Tour of Tuscany, at 8p. So I'm out.

I give zero f**ks about the carry on luggage we own. The Southwest companion pass is dope though.

Companion pass FTW...have had it for the last four year and should be in good position after the New Year to get it again. The first two times it was easy to get through Marriott, though that is no longer available.

I tell ya, I’ve done well booking hotel rooms through the southwest site and landing huge RR bonuses. Been to two conferences, landed a 35k and a 17k bonus, then still got marriot points by paying with their card.

That missionary murder story is fascinating to me, especially when viewed through the lens of islanders who live there. From what I've read, the islanders only get "visitors" every 15-20 years or so, and the islanders are immediately ready to kill whoever shows up.

Further, there are only 15 to 400 islanders who live there on an island that's only 23 square miles in area. So if you're an islander, are you just kind of hanging out, gathering food all day, spears in hand ready for the once in a generation chance that you're going to have kill an "invader"?

Away makes good stuff for a decent price. I'm more of a weekender bag guy though.

There are a lot of places where people would welcome help from outsiders and missionaries... maybe stick to those areas instead of bothering a tribal community that has made no secret about their feelings for outsiders.

Barry Odom would cause a similar backlash to when UT tried to hire Gregg Schiano. Total fanbase meltdown. Looks like its a no-go, but I would like to watch that place continue to burn. At least we can hope it drags on long enough to impact their recruiting even more.

They don't know how many people live there. Attempts to conduct hut-to-hut census evaluations have ended in cold blooded murder.

They spend a lot of their time having huge beach orgies that have been safely seen and observed from planes.

I'm extremely jealous of these people. They just hang around with their dick out, and occasionally have to kill a White Devil.

- Completely fascinated by the Sentinelese stuff. They apparently can't start fire, but have been a successful tribe for tens of thousands of years. I WANT to know more about these people, but at the same time, want them left alone. Weird.

- This moron getting killed and so much attention is going to attract a bunch of other idiots trying to get to the island, 100.

- Just spent six days in rural Northern Mississippi with the girl and her family. Different world. However, I passed the family test...next step planning is under way.

- All huge Mississippi State fans in that area...they were surprisingly supportive of our success and didn't engage in any **** talking. I guess we did just kick their *** and they aren't really historically relevent though.

- As much as I love piling on BKO and the creepy posters who obsess over her because she's a female...seems like she lost her dad and watching UK had been tough due to that being something they did together. Can't bring myself to pile on.

Now, all for the Cindog stuff. Don't get the horse jokes towards her...thought that was SueD? Cindog was the one who talked about getting plowed by her boyfriend and some other dude, right?

* Home with the beer flu today. Gallivanted around the Quarter with an old PNC co-worker and his spouse last night. Yucked it up swapping old tales of banking shenanigans and all manner of misdeeds.

My god, banking sucks ***.

* It's that time of year, y'all. Love Actually on the tube.

* I've owned two pieces of luggage in my life, and I believe they were both Samsonite. Large checked bag that lasted about 15 years before the handle crapped out, and a carry-on that's still going after at least as long. Under $100. TJ Maxx.

If you want to parade thru the terminal in designer gear, go for it, but there's no need to complicate such a simple buying process.

* <-- rooting like hell for the Sentinelese.

The audacity of that idiot to just float on up and start preaching god's word. :joy:

Moron.

* How's everyone's Bitcoin investment paying off? $3600 today.

SueD's cousin humped the horse (and they made a movie about it, I think - not kidding). Whole lot of banning went on around here the day that little bit of info was revealed.

Brohm is gonna take that job today, right? Even if they’re “lowballing” him, his iron isn’t ever going to be hotter. I’m not convinced he’s going to ever win 10 games at Purdue so I don’t think he’s going to get offers for the top tier jobs. Louisville is a perfect fit for him and he’ll have a better opportunity to win big there than anywhere else in the country. He’s a good coach that will recruit Louisville like crazy. But he ain’t dabo or nick Saban or urban Meyer. Dude has a ceiling but that ceiling is a little higher in Louisville than anywhere else. Also, I’d rather have Neal Brown at Louisville than Auburn, which is possible if they pull the trigger on malzahn. If Brown was at Louisville, you could say the exact same things about him that I just said about Brohm at Louisville.

Umm what happened, some guy died trying to hump a horse?

Lost a few bucks on the crypto, but I guess you never really lose till you sell. Oh well, it’s worth it not to hear the stupid crypto warriors “buy #%^*” on social media anymore.

Finally have a day off, so food, coffee and a massage with the gal and hoping it rains all day.

Cold front coming in, it’ll be 64 as a high tomorrow. Better break out the Boggan.

We’ve been CRUSHED all month with Parrotheads, Fantasy Fest, powerboats and Thanksgiving. #whywedothis
