I'm driving my daughter's car today and man, I forgot what good gas mileage this thing gets. The gas hand has barely moved and I'm at work. Lol.

How about no? I'm okay with the mani-pedi for a man but seriously, makeup?? More pussification of men.

After ‘classy’ N.C. restaurant bans kids, critics fume — and reservations surge
It's sad that we have so devolved as a society that a restaurant feels the need to hand out etiquette cards to patrons. I don't understand why some parents are so inconsiderate and feel that other people should have to tolerate their bad ass children. It's not cute in any way.

At least you didn't say "thingy".

Maybe it's a southern thing. It's what guys around me have always called it.

I recently drove from my house to Connecticut and then back up through Albany before heading home. Filled up before I left (yes, I am one of those who will spend 5 minutes making sure it is fully topped off) and 640 miles later the gas hand was just above E. Just shy of 40 mpg.
The best part was the Mass Pike has completely eliminated cash tolls-----you must either have a E Z Pass thingy or they will send a bill to the registered owner based on the license plate, which is read by overhead scanners as you drive by at 70-75 mph.
(I wonder how that works for rental cars. Does the rental company eat those charges or do they back bill the renter?)
Have I mentioned that I love my Altima?

I have a meeting with my financial adviser this morning. We are going to review my current finances and start laying out the groundwork for the rollover of my 401k next summer. I plan on paying off the balance of my mortgage ($11K) and my car ($15K) with part of the rollover funds.
We are also going to discuss the best course of action for the proceeds from the sale of my condo, which I estimate will be about $100K. I would like to take $57K of that to pay off my son's student loans. I will be curious to see if Jim agrees with me.
I also formally requested my pension application packet on Monday. Parts of it have to be notarized so I will take care of that during my 8/21-9/8 vacation.
I am sure Jim will not be too pleased when I tell him that I want to take $4K out of my Roth IRA. I am helping my son pay off his credit card-----I have already sent him $1K and an additional $4K should just about pay it off. In turn, he has agreed to repay me when he gets his taxes back early next year and will do so by diverting part (or all) of his refund electronically to my account.
