All depends on the size of the animal in the end. This one was a 1450 lb Red Angus.

So for fun math, let’s say the $950 quarter did last you a year. You’d have to buy $18.27 of beef per week to make it even. That’s a 2 lb roast and 2 lbs of burger from the store. No steaks for you or you have to go without for another week.

We burn through the roasts in winter and steaks the other parts of the year. Burger is just a staple that gets used all season. Although, I used to give the FW the evil eye when she made tacos from my locker beef, but then thinking about it, it’s the same price per lb as I paid for the all the 1/4, so fine. Still seems wrong.

We don’t have to even go down the quality path. That dead horse has decayed and long gone.

I remember paying around $375 per quarter, but then thinking back, that was a 1/4 century ago… Dang time marches on.

I think my last 1/4 was around $825 about 10 months ago. I’m from a small town in NW Iowa. I just buy the animal from a farmer I know and they drop in off in town at the locker on the day they have an appointment for it. I pay the farmer the current going rate from the sale barn and the butcher the processing price.

FYI, Warner Stallion will match anyone’s price with outstanding service

Just heard on CCO that some of the indicators are predicting 12″ on snow next weekend.

You plan to ride snowmobiles… That will prevent this. Thank you.

On a somewhat related note… Have you guys been watching Tulsa King?

Matt, you will make a great Sly Stallone.

Just traded away Derek Henry last week. Figured I’d sell high. Had a guy desperate for RB help and I have James Cook, Alvin Kamara, and Aaron Jones but needed QB help. I asked him what it would take to get Lamar Jackson. He quickly replied Henry and I didn’t hesitate. Well, last night was good for both of us…
Currently 5-2 with a 5 game win streak and have been the highest scoring team for 3 of the past 4 weeks.

Sorry for your loss pal. She lived a full life and left her mark on yours.

Anyone understand why a rivalry game is happening so early in the season?

Because of scheduling conflicts as they slowly transition to the Big 96er Conference. The more meaningless (in terms of conference supremacy) rivalries are sacrificed to make the schedule work, so the league gets all the meat and gristle $$$ too.

Someone is a fan of The Great Outdoors.

I haven’t been home to inspect, but they set it in the garage for me and the FW says it doesn’t appear to have any damage.

BC, how long is this gonna take to assemble? May need to get out of work a little early today…

Pulled the trigger…

I have my night planned

Breaks my heart reading this thread.
Sticker was a very nice Man.

First thing that jumped out at me when I read this as well. Tim was a great guy and I miss his face here at work everyday. Our interactions always left me walking away laughing at his sayings. I try to use them with those that knew him here and they all smile and talk about how he is missed.

Was going out with a buddy in his boat last summer. Grabbed three rods from my boat and stuck them in the backseat with the tips facing up front into the passenger’s seat against the window. Got to the intersection/corner and couldn’t see through the dew on window if anyone was coming. Hit the button to roll down the window to get the dew off. Confirmed, no one was coming, and hit the button to roll the window back up. It dawned on me what happened as I heard the crunch of all three rod tips getting sheared off by the window.

If I was closer… Assemble the counter away from the wall just how you want it to sit. The seam should be straight and true from the factory. I would glue the seam as well as the provided brackets to draw it together. Then press it against the wall how you want it and scribe it to the wall.

If it’s not horrible, you can belt sand to your scribe. It it is horrible, you can jigsaw to close to your scribe line and belt sand the rest of the way.

A metal shop could make you a brushed stainless or aluminum one on a laser very easily.

I can’t give you a review on my Onyx as, fortunately for me, it’s never deployed. I can tell you it’s comfortable enough. I have replaced the cartridge as it expired and was easy enough to find and do.

I’m so sorry to hear this. Prayers to you and your family Jon.

Congrats BC! You got a keeper there.

Sorry for your loss, Tim.

My wife and I were just having this conversation last night as a friend of ours was just admitted to hospice.

The answer is, sudden or slow, both hurt the same.

Sorry my friend.

Seems like a good deal. But, I guess I don’t need two.

Colville, yes, Baypoint no, from what I’ve heard

Keep us posted. I’ve been kicking the idea around as well, and if my FW knew which one I was looking at, she would have probably ordered it by now too.

Leaving for Cabo on Sunday morning. Not summer, but it’s top of mind right now!

Just like Bigstorm, we have our annual trip to the English River at Grassy Narrows the second weekend in June.

Usually a trip to a buddy’s cabin on Big Sandy the weekend after opener, but it’s less and less about fishing every year.

Oh, and one of my sons are getting married at the end of July, so that weekend is booked out and probably the weekends leading up to it.

Where do you get it. I get it in my left big toe. Absolutely debilitating. I’ve had five episodes and hope I never see another one.

Last “event” was a couple weeks ago. Oddly on the outside of my foot by my little toe. It was the worst one yet. Probably have only had 4 “events” first three were the typical big toe joint. Hope to never have another.

Nice job guys!!! I got to 6 gallons before my gout diagnosis. They don’t want mine anymore. I don’t blame them. I wouldn’t wish gout on anyone.

But I haven’t found anything that hasn’t fit in my 6.5′ truck bed. ha ha

Looks like a nice delivery vehicle for a small time cabinet guy…

US Bank POWER card is great for biz. They will check who you are paying via check and contact those Vendors to negotiate them accepting the card. They will also negotiate the rate.

Waiting to be contacted… But I’m not accepting the card.

Where’s the puke emoji? This is not something I can get behind.
