I just went into my NCEES and tried to edit one of my internships (was categorized as other, not engineering or surveying). I was able to uncheck the box for adding a verifier contact name/email change it to engineering and it looked like I could edit everything else of significance. Full...

I worked for a construction company and spent most of my time there on rail rehabs in and around NYC- Amtrak, LIRR, NJ Transit and Metro North (minimal), both on site ad estimating. The basement of Penn Station is kinda cool, happy to say I have been there, but I don't need to go back.   After...

Does getting rid of the Covid 19 lbs count? I started running in August and I am down about 14/15 lbs. I just did a 5k loop in my neighborhood at an 8:28 per mile pace, which is probably the fastest I have ever ran consistently at 1 time for more than 1 minute. 

Agreed.  They also landed a large defense (I'm pretty sure) contract last week, and they get a big boost when favorable vaccine news comes out.  Halfway trough the day the stock price started falling. I assume because people still are not flying... If I have learned anything with this...

I am only doing this in my brokerage account, so if I make anything I am still not seeing it until I am 65. The short term stuff is limited to Blackhawk (I will check the craps table for @Road Guy) and that damn Fanduel Sports betting app in my phone.  Everyone always talks about putting in as...

This is ultimately what prompted me to ask for a recommendation/education. I had some cash in my brokerage account that was just sitting there. I bought $5k of Boeing stock a month ago with the logic of 1) Covid means planes are not selling, 2) the MAX should be available soon, or at the same...

Can anyone recommend a book or other educational resource on investing? Low level. Like this is what small cap stocks mean and this is what mid cap stocks mean. And this is when you want to invest more in this one compared to the other. Currently my investment strategy is "buy stock in depressed...

I am conflicted on the sportsman aspect as well. You rarely see them during the day, but when you do its pretty crazy. I understand the need for bait if you want to effectively hunt them. Also, the use of bait does not equate to 100% success. This dude found me in Alaska when I was working on a...

I should expect this after getting "facts" from my parents. This is the 3rd ballot vote on bear hunting in less than 20 years right? 

Also, the ranchers claim they brought in the meanest, nastiest most violent wolves they had in Canada in the mid 90's. I was thinking the same thing about RMNP. They really should, it is unnatural for that many elk to be in that area and that predictable. The western slope is actually seeing...

Same thing happened in Maine a few years ago, except it was you couldn't use bait to hunt bears. For the most part, hunting bears without bait is unsuccessful, but they really need to be kept under control. Cause they are bears. Southern ME- no bears, huge money from the Humane Society and PETA...

Is the Solostove similar to a Breeo in that it is supposed to be smokeless or smoke reduced? Are you aiming for low smoke?  Back when I used to read Nextdoor there was lots of complaints about smoke from backyard fires. There probably still is, but I smartened up and stopped reading about it.

I am in my mid 30's. I just ran some quick calcs and realized I have probably paid $80 to $85k into SS since I started working a real job at 15 years old. I would walk away from it if given the option to never have to pay into it again and never get anything from it. Am I the only one? 

Our neighborhood was pretty much the same as last year, except: - 25% of the houses had their lights off, usually its 5% - almost everyone had a table at the end of the driveway, individual baggies or a bowl on the doorstep, except: - one guy dressed as a chef handling out candy with tongs -...

Boo. I'm researching plans with the assumption I will need to update my $56/5 GB a month Verizon plan to unlimited in the near future.  Can they do it because the phone defaults to wifi whenever possible?

US Cellular should be honest and call themselves "A small part of the US, Cellular". Most of my family is in Maine. I was searching for a plan where I could get a new phone for free, my brother suggested USC. They wouldn't let me be a customer because I live in Colorado...

That's what we do, our oldest is 7 this year and we told her last year. We also asked her to not talk about it with her friends because Santa is probably big to most of them. She understood. We don't want to lie to her and as mentioned, we don't want her to think strangers can get in the house...

I sneezed at a 3-5 year old soccer game a few weekends ago. You would have thought I dropped my pants, onto the field and started beating children by the parents reactions within a 50' radius of me... 

They haven't been out that long, and yet I seem to see them everywhere. Supply < Demand, as has been pointed out. I only notice them because I think they are a Land Rover or Bentley SUV.  I have a 3 year old crew cab half ton pickup. I am appalled at what those are selling for. So appalled I...
