RE: All Good Things Must Come to an End - My Last Day In Austin
It takes a while to get used to! I think there were around 80 of the Waymo taxis around the city. I've heard that about Texas too! It was scorching hot even in November a few days I was there.

Thank you! It was an enjoyable place to capture. Strangely, this city doesn't seem to carry the same despair as most US cities do, post-pandemic. The Hyatt at the Austin airport certainly has seen better

We have a fairly large Latino population here in St. Paul (my wife is half-Mexican) but I've NEVER had tacos as flavorful as the ones I had in Austin. They were next level. Food trucks have come a long

I swear there was a taco stand or truck on almost every corner and there was plenty of good BBQ.

Thank you! I'll try my best to keep warm. These early days of winter are sometimes the toughest, until the body gets used to it.

You're welcome! It was such a nice break from the plunging temperatures of Minnesota. There's so much I didn't get to do, all the more reasons for a return trip. I'd highly recommend this place if you

For sure, huge influxes of money/people are coming in because so many companies are moving and incorporating there. I'm afraid it's going to turn into another Los Angeles eventually but, for now, it's

I think we'll eventually just see a screen in the vehicles and there won't even be any steering wheel or driver controls. This is how the CyberCab is designed. The cars will operate seamlessly with the

Ah, Summertime! We won't see that for a while yet (May). I'm sure you'll have new friends there in no time. I'm back into the swing of reality. We started our kitchen remodel yesterday. A new sink was

I think they've bundled a lot of other provisions into that bill. I don't think these kinds of omnibus bills should be allowed. For issues as important as healthcare each individual issue should be voted

Yeah, it's almost the equivalent of a mortgage payment. Universal healthcare is really the only way forward, almost every other major nation already has it. People who aren't paying attention to this are

RE: Open Enrollment
It's shocking how much healthcare costs are increasing. Our monthly premiums are jumping from $560 to $2,100 per month beginning Jan 1! As you said, deductibles are also rising. I don't know how our

I'm hearing from a few financial analysts that the stock is overvalued atm. I don't care much about that. I favor the long-haul, Warren Buffet, approach and buy stock in companies I believe in steadily

I think he's pretty well positioned to make a difference and has the personality for it. I hope the greed and corruption is left in this old world and we're able to shed that mentality in the new one.

I was surprised when Elon said this during his keynote. They're planning on making a full pivot to CyberCabs and RoboVans (their fully autonomous vehicles) and also concentrate on the Optimus robot. This

It sounds like you're adjusting to this new lifestyle very well! The community seems very nice. There's a lot to be said about having the freedom to just take off on a whim! We had that with our last condo
