    FBG'S TOP 100 PINK FLOYD SONGS - #01 - Comfortably Numb from The Wall (1979)

    Generally just a lurker on the forums, but as a PF fan had to pop in and say thanks to @Anarchy99 for all the work on this thread. I never really listened to the early stuff so heard a lot of new songs from this thread. Also, I got tickets for my dad for Aussie Pink Floyd this past weekend and...

    Do you hoard credit card points?

    Thanks. Will look into the chase cards. Makes sense. I don’t mind avoiding the united card if there are better options.

    Do you hoard credit card points?

    Looking for a new card, probably a travel card, what are people's thoughts on capital one venture vs the united card? I honestly hate united but live in NJ so pretty tied to them for most trips and they really push to get you on the card to have even basic perks like checked bags.

    Bourbon guys

    We did a bachelor's party a few years ago (pre-COVID) in Louisville, and for the downtown spots we really liked Michter's and Rabbit Hole. They aren't the huge farm types but they were both cool experiences and we enjoyed the bourbon as well. They are both set up well for tours and had solid...

    College Admissions Questions

    Great advice there. I may have missed it, is she looking to stay in Academia or move into industry? Some advisors are better at placing students at one or another. I'm in biotech and we hire a lot of PhDs. Almost always the first stop is talking to professors we have connections with to see if...

    Car Market going forward

    So no idea if this is the issue, but I had an old car where this was the issue. It turned out the glove compartment light wasn't going out when it was closed and slowly draining the battery. Took forever to figure out, but if you put a multimeter across the battery you can see if there is a pull...

    Bourbon guys

    I’ll add more tomorrow but I do think Irish are underrated overall. You aren’t going to get the burn of a full proof bourbon but there are some interesting flavors out there. If you can find teeling by you they are worth a try for sure. Only working distillery in Dublin and it felt like going to...

    College Admissions Questions

    Also she is an athlete which will boost the merit aid she gets. Like a lot of D3 schools that can't directly offer athletic scholarships they find other ways to get money to athletes they want. When I was there, a soccer player lived across the hall from me freshman year. We had very similar...

    What kind of WINE did you drink last night?

    So just bought a new house and the seller left some wine that was his father's in the basement. All in a cool basement on its side. I haven't gone through it all yet, but at first glance it is from France from the 1970s. What's the first step here? Wife and I enjoy drinking wine but aren't...

    Stock Thread

    I know I mostly lurk here, but cell therapy is my area of expertise so I wanted to just give my perspective. MSCs have been around for a while now, and they are most certainly safe, and they are bioactive in a variety of diseases. I worked on a very similar product 10-15 years ago and we had...

    College Admissions Questions

    I am in biotech with Chemical/ Biomedical engineers. It's somewhat niche in the overall engineering world but I doubt its much different for entry level hires.  It's just my opinion, but I'd say internships/ co-ops are most important, especially if you like the company and want to work there...

    College Admissions Questions

    Unsolicited advice, but what kind of engineering? Engineering is one of those majors where school can really matter for getting the first job. Long term its about how you perform, but getting your foot in the door with either the school name, connections from professors, etc can make things a...

    College Admissions Questions

    I know you said Stevens was an option. They will place a lot of weight on SAT math for sure if she applies for an engineering program. If they want her for softball, that will help, but no harm in trying to up the math, it could even get you more merit. I graduated from there and happy to answer...

    Clash of Clans (Official thread)

    Still around in CWL. Got demoted a couple of times after you guys left but I think now in the right league. We have lots of openings too, I think there was mentioning of merging with Honda.

    Anyone have Multiple Myeloma or know anyone that had it?

    First off sorry Yak, cancer is the worst. MM has a range of outcomes for sure, and its aggressiveness varies a ton. Up until a month ago I was at the company who makes Revlimid, and I got to meet a lot of our patients and hear the survival stories. There are a lot more treatments either recently...

    Any Trading Cards guys? (Sports, etc)

    Thanks! I'm done with the purge step (kept sets together), now putting in sleeves and organizing by player. What site do you use to determine an 8 will get $35 a 10 $300, etc.? I see there are a lot of paid services but not sure if it is worth it. I'm hoping to have a stack set aside for future...

    College Admissions Questions

    A few more things.  As for ROI and debt, I was lucky and did not have much when I left, but others did, and its individual but Stevens placement in the area is excellent, but I can understand that is a sticking point, especially if he may want to work in other parts of the country. It may be...

    Any Trading Cards guys? (Sports, etc)

    So I ventured into my boxes of childhood junk wax type cards and got tens of thousands down to a few thousand I guess. Kept all of the HOF types and anything that seems to be worth at least a few bucks. Looking for recommendations on organization and storage. Does organizing by player make the...

    College Admissions Questions

    Hey Smack, I'm sure I'll miss some things but here we go.  For the merit, think I was around the same 30-40%, although it was cheaper then. Everything is negotiable, but I know this is a strange year with applications way up. I think it makes sense to have the conversation, it's a small school...

    Any Trading Cards guys? (Sports, etc)

    Thanks, but I literally have some from 88-94 in every brand it seems. I've been looking at a site like this https://www.oldsportscards.com/1992-donruss-baseball-cards/    to see if there is a big name error to look for.  I started going down the rabbit hole unfortunately. Two questions: I have...
