Sorry jchammond, the word "duude" is a trademark of eastwest2300.

I've got it narrowed down so far to the following trademarks of this forum (and I mean it in the most respectful, yet humorous way):

ghostvette - "iggy list"
southark370Z - "check my FSM in my sig"
eastwest2300 - "duude" (with at least two "u's")
trips - "keep it clean or i'm gonna give permanent vacay slips"
optionzero - gives you a literature book when asked about wheels
zoren370z - gives you insider info about the coronavirus
jarblue - loves madwi tags
madwi - loves jarblue tags
rusty - gives you insider info about home depot

EDIT:
spoiler - loves his bacon
fpenvy - the bat signal

From the WSJ: "Deutsche Bank said gross domestic product could shrink 24% in the eurozone and 13% in the U.S. in the second quarter on an annual, seasonally adjusted basis—declines that would be the biggest in recorded history."

Night Folks, need my rest-been really busy lately

I know we have a lot of fun here. And I'm part of it more often than not. But I've never in my life seen the Editorial page of the Wall Street Journal use italics in their musings and I feel obligated to share it here:

The government needs to act to prevent the liquidity panic from becoming a solvency rout that becomes a banking crisis.*

I'm not trying to sow panic or discord but the immediate financial situation is worse than post-Lehman 2008. No one knows where the market bottom is here. Every investment entity is hoarding cash. Many solid companies may become insolvent and fail due to current conditions. The free market is in free-fall and the only advice I have is pay incredibly close attention to what is occurring. Our nation is in a very precarious state right now.

I'm no expert on such things but it looks to me like the panic in the financial sector is akin to the panic in the grocery stores - a gross over-reaction that ends up making things worse.

I welcome the robot overlords; they don't panic.

Alive and well here in sunny FL

Working on the new house and about totally moved out of the other place now.
Just have to sweep the floor and sell that previous bacon shack.

Note to JC:

Go ahead and order the trusses prebuilt. It’s not really that expensive and you can then have the whole roof trussed, sheeted and tarpapered in one day easily. You can then shingle it the next day. You will save so much time.

P.S. do not forget to use plywood spacers on the sheeting ...

P.S.S. do not forget to double up on the hurricane straps either. I would put one on each end of each truss despite code not requiring that many. They are cheap and as they say “when in doubt, build it stout”. ...

Rusty, I'm gonna look to buy those Racing Brake rotors next week. Got any recommendations on retailer? Looks like the Nissan Race Shop has the fronts for $920. Not gonna buy from Vivid. Only see the rears at CZP for $1050. Don't see many RB rotors elsewhere.

Wondering if I should just buy the F/R kit (comes with pads and SS lines I don't need) for $2200 directly from RB

Good Thursday Morning All. Not much on the list for today other than the usual stuff around the house. We have a 50% chance of rain today with a high of 79*. Have a good one guys, stay safe and wash the hands often!!

When I bought mine. RB had a sale going on. So I just got the front and rear rotors from RB. It was under 2 bills.

I put in a product inquiry request to RB regarding pricing. We'll see what they say
