    OT: Al Trautwig passes away at age 68

    Almost as sad as Rizutto passing for me. He was the voice for Yankees & Knicks game in my youth. I vividly remember being amazed that he was an Olympic announcer in 92 (maybe). I couldnt believe the same guy who was calling Kevin Maas moon shots was also at the Olympics. He reached legend status...

    Wow. Instead of responding you just went full on dick mode.

    OT: Real Estate Question - Toms River/Brick and area

    I agree. What started as steering someone away from he/she may not be in tune to, went off the rails and badly. I ask because you seem to broad stroke every comment as anti-jewish. The reality is that the ire is not directed at a religion, it's directed at a sect of said religion. Just as people...

    OT: Real Estate Question - Toms River/Brick and area

    The doughnut thing allows municipalities to merge if they both pass a referendum. The Princeton's did this a few years back. Murphy also spoke boldly about consolidation of school boards if a muni had more than one ie: Fair haven k-8 & Rfh would he consolidated w Rumson to make a unified k-12...

    OT: Real Estate Question - Toms River/Brick and area

    My Family migrated to Middletown a few yrs ago to a 55+. They landed just over the canal. Insane to see the explosion of himes over there. They love everything about it except the food. Restaurants and grocery stores are weak.

    OT: Impressive Showing for RU Gymnastics

    Sorry, but its like saying football had an impressive showing beating Norfolk, Akron and Howard. Their social team does a great job making things sound good, but the reality is the coach's record vs B10 opponents is embarrassing. Think Ash level bad. Worst of all, I'm pretty sure they have the...

    OT: Stormy and Potentially Snowy from about 2/8-2/22? (pg 9); OG Thread: Cold and Potentially Snowy Pattern Likely for Most of January

    Why does everyone give #s such ****. Dude takes the time to post detailed updates on the weather, providing more details than some ****** weather dot com clickbait article, blog or 45 second tv weather update. If he was smart he would have monetized his snow fanboy-ness via a blog or YouTube. At...

    This is a terrible take. Due to block size and demand, L1 fees are going to go through the moon in the near term. Lightning will see adoption and use continue to grow. As always with Bitcoin, gradually, then suddenly. Also, the Trump administration is going to crush the Chokepoint 2.0...

    OT: Bitcoin, Altcoins, NFT's & All Things Crypto

    Quick drop in on use case. For the last 3 mos, I've been paying my Indian coder via btc. I strike to direct deposit him 1500 usd, which gets converted to rupees in real time for pennies. For almost 2 years he was paid via other services, upwork, PayPal, etc. He took home about 1100-1200 from that.

    Lol. I sure dont think so. Ive been holding for so damn long it's just dumb to sell. At this point, do I think it's going to hit.... probably not, but I'll take the 10-100x upside vs a few thousand $$$ right now. THere's going to be $$ to be made in pretty much everything right now. I just think...

    Life is in the way. Election was a bit consuming. Yes I still hold. Waiting to see how the Bel2 integrations works its way out. Ive held painfully for years. Ill either die on the vine with this or wait out a 3 or 4 figure price
