How cheap are you?

Anyway. Football party at my house. C'mon over anytime. I have cheap beer. If you want fancy beer, bring it. LOL. I'll be here starting at this thing, pretty much any Sunday now. Haha.

I'm having thoughts of how to set up a flight sim on it. :)

The flight sim thing will be awesome.... but be aware that with the 75" TV some of the football close-ups will be a bit too close up. You'll have a 3 foot QB head bobbing up and down on the screen.

I eat peanut butter sandwiches at my desk for lunch. Between the cost of buying lunch and the cost of driving to lunch, that's easily a $10/day savings. Sadly, after doing this for years, I'm weary of PB sandwiches.

Blasphemy! :lol:

I spent $10 on some strong reading glasses so I could hold my iphone a few inches from my nose, when I watch NetFlix. The effect is actually much better than watching a big TV from across the room, because the picture fills more of my field of view.

The other night, we were camping and watched an episode of "The Good Wife" on my iPhone 6+, since there was no wifi and neither of our iPads have cellular activated. Fed the audio through the headphone jack into the trailer's speakers.

In any case, it was a quite acceptable viewing experience.

Normally we could have sent the video through HDMI to our trailer's TV, but Xfinity blocks that ability for now (bastards!). Works with NetFlix and Hulu, but neither have the current season of "The Good Wife".

And, more back on point, Dollar Tree has decent reading glasses for $1!

I mentioned this post to Karen, and she wants me to clarify...

We wash and reuse them mainly to keep them out of the landfill, and environment, for as long as possible - not just because we're cheap! :no:

But....eventually they do go to the landfill? what am I missing here? Are you daft? Being cheap on aircraft maint. Has probably killed a large number of GA pilots.

I doubt you can prove that.

It's killed SOME for sure, but a "great number" doesn't match anything we currently see in the statistics.

Pilots kill themselves doing stupid stuff, way more than equipment malfunctions do.
 
Cheap date today in Buford, GA!

Careful. I know there's a "People of Walmart" website. I'm scared to type in "People of Goodwill".

What has been seen, can't be unseen. ;)
