  1. I thought about it... but haven't gotten in. I admit its been tempting
  2. ADA and XRP Most of it is in my bank account lol
  3. Well... a post I can agree with you on
  4. 100% agree. As mentioned above by other posters, it's also because of parents that kids get forced to go to college, and their parents also sometimes have outlandish expectations. I will preface this by stating that my dad is a lawyer who has his own practice now but used to work at a pretty big law firm in N VA before going into private practice. My mom has her masters in history and taught at a school before she had kids. By the time I got to HS (graduated HS in 2004... my how time flies) AP classes were a big thing (they probably were already anyway at that time). Taking classes earlier (i.e. Algebra in 7th or 8th grade) was expected if you were "smart." I was being told that you had to get A's and B's. Anything below that was unacceptable in my house and was considered to mean that you were either not working hard enough, not studying enough or just goofing off. Getting a 3.0 average for 1st quarter was okay, but that I could do better. Even getting a 3.5 average was fine, but again, I was told I could do better. Parents put outlandish pressure on their kids because they want them to go to the best schools, the best colleges, the best whatever. Yes, some parents want their kids to have the "life" that they didn't have when they grew up, but some parents just push their kids way too hard and to far
  5. Few more frosty nights to get through though
  6. As I have said in this thread before, I am in hard on the DOGE crypto train lol. I have made some good money -- I know its kind of bragging, but its in the 5 figures. I got in early on back when it was down around 0.001 (like a year ago) and had around 250,000 "shares". I just hodl'd for a while and around Super Bowl Sunday when it was around like 0.07 I got out and sold all my "shares" and made 17K. About a month later, I took around half that and re-invested in DOGE when it was in the 0.15-0.25 price range. I currently hodl 60,000 "shares". When it was around 0.65 I dumped half of my DOGE and reaped some good profits, again near 20K. Right now, I have about $30K in the DOGE crypto market -- but that's money I can technically afford to lose. I will pull if it gets below like 0.35, but I doubt it goes back down there again. I fully admit I got lucky and got on the train just in time. I also know that I could lose all that money that I currently hodl tomorrow morning. I figure once you start making 25% profit on your investment, its time to check in and perhaps pull some of your money out.
  7. 2013 or 2014 I believe
  8. Penguins win division title and #1 seed since Caps went to OT
  9. 100 PIM already and only the 1st period over lol
  10. This is true 100 percent. Only reason I'm on RH is because Coinbase doesn't do DOGE. I heavily use Coinbase and Kucoin. If Coinbase had DOGE... I'd be on there always. But since it doesn't... I'm on RH. If Coinbase put DOGE on there tomorrow I'd move over
  11. Random 2% Tor probs along i95 from DC to RIC corridor into S MD that the new day 1 doesn't discuss... but MRGL risk up for all... 5 wind and 5 hail

  18. BULLETIN - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED Severe Thunderstorm Warning National Weather Service Baltimore MD/Washington DC 650 PM EDT Mon May 3 2021 The National Weather Service in Sterling Virginia has issued a * Severe Thunderstorm Warning for... Southeastern Washington County in north central Maryland... Southwestern Frederick County in north central Maryland... * Until 730 PM EDT. * At 650 PM EDT, a severe thunderstorm was located near Harpers Ferry, or near Shepherdstown, moving east at 25 mph. HAZARD...60 mph wind gusts. SOURCE...Radar indicated. IMPACT...Damaging winds will cause some trees and large branches to fall. This could injure those outdoors, as well as damage homes and vehicles. Roadways may become blocked by downed trees. Localized power outages are possible. Unsecured light objects may become projectiles. * Locations impacted include...

  19. Mesoscale Discussion 0504 NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK 0545 PM CDT Mon May 03 2021 Areas affected...Portions of Maryland...Virginia...and Washington DC. Concerning...Severe potential...Watch unlikely Valid 032245Z - 032345Z Probability of Watch Issuance...5 percent SUMMARY...An isolated risk of damaging winds or a brief tornado will be possible over the next couple of hours along a diffuse warm front. A weather watch is unlikely. DISCUSSION...Recent radar imagery and storm reports showed a small supeprcell over Jefferson Co. Maryland had intensified over the last 45 minutes. SPC mesoanalysis indicates this storm is located along a diffuse surface warm front stretching from eastern Ohio toward the northern Chesapeake Bay. To the south of the front, surface temperatures in the mid 70s F and dewpoints in the lower to middle 60s F are support MUCAPE of 800-1200 J/kg. Enhanced mid-level flow ahead of a shortwave trough across the Carolinas is contributing to 30-40 kt of effective shear as analyzed by local VAD VWPs. Observational trend suggest that severe weather in the form of damaging wind gusts and perhaps a tornado will be possible with this storm as it tracks east along the front over the next 1 to 2 hours. Given the limited spatial area and expected longevity of any severe risk as the storm moves into cooler air near the bay, a weather watch is unlikely. ..Lyons/Thompson.. 05/03/2021
