Of course you are right on insurance, no coverage as no damage was done
on my side other than the damage to the tree. It won't kill the lace bark elm, but it will have to be cut back significantly so it will not be out of proportion. I'm paying for all the debris removal, she is using her homeowners to cover damage to her vehicles.
Nobody was hurt, life goes on.

Worked out well - I was having trouble finding a tree service that would
come out immediately, but she had one that had done work for her previously and they came out to clear the debris. I went out and said I would pay for all the tree work, she understands the damage to her vehicles is on her insurance.
Communication is a good thing!

Branches down due to ice - good neighbor advice?
So our 30 year old lace bark elm took a hit from the ice overnight and dropped 2 branches that extend across my neighbor's driveway. A few of the smaller branches look to be resting on their cars, but at this point no visible dents although a few scratches would not shock me. In checking with my homeowner's insurance I have learned that tree debris removal would only apply if there was damage done on my property, but there is no damage. I would have a $500 deductible in any case. I've also learned that technically even though the tree is in my yard, it would be my neighbor's responsibility to remove the debris from her yard. I am also told that my liability coverage would not extend to her vehicles, as her liability coverage should take care of that.
Since some of the debris is in my yard it is my intention to hire tree removal folks to remove the debris from both yards. Other than that, and consulting with an arborist to ensure the health of our lace bark elm, is there anything else I should do?
I'm counting on the combined wisdom of the lounge to show me the path of righteousness!

We welcomed our first granddaughter - they have chosen Sweet Pappy for me
They also use Papster - no idea where it originated.

The Wall Street Journal still has some great long-form journalism
My mom subscribes to the WSJ print edition and saves them for me. I don't bother much with current events, but they do have a lot of good content.
And I'm a physical paper junkie too. It was painful to cancel the Richmond Times Dispatch, but necessary to do so, as I was no longer enjoying it.

People who chase money get what they deserve.
As so many of you have pointed out, the relationship with your boss, working conditions, and the stress caused are things to consider. When folks are having trouble paying the rent, buying groceries, or getting medical care, I can (sort of) understand going after a pay increase regardless of the other factors, but once you are at a comfortable level (yes, I know this is a moving target), I don't understand chasing money alone.
I've known too many that took the promotion, made the move, and loved the money, but hated getting up and going to work in the morning.
Maybe not making a million a year blinds me to the benefits of more, more, more.
NONE of this is meant to disparage Coach Brooks, whom I greatly admire. I just think he is in a great working situation, with a lot of talented and dialed-in players coming back, and a community that loves him. I wish nothing but the best for him and his family.

Amazing series of stupid plays by the Hoos
1- unsportsmanlike conduct after the late TD to pull uva within 2 - forces a 2 pt conversion from the 18
2- afrer having a lob caught for the 2 pt conversion the tiny hoo qb flexes to get a 15 yarder on kickoff, which State returns to the hoo 48
3 - state moves to hoo 31, the 48 yard fg is blocked BUT #7 on uva flagged for leaping. 15 yard penalty.
State wins on the next kick which is good
Hoos with 45 yards in penalties in the last 40 seconds of the game to claim defeat.

We're in the same boat - not many movies we agree on.
But having to watch Witcher is not all bad - Anya Chalotra has a fair amount is screen time.

Don't lie - more specifically, don't lie to save yourself.
Telling a lie to save other's feelings is okay.
"Can you tell I've been working out?"
"Do you like the meal I spent all day preparing"?
Nothing wrong with a little white lie there, as you do not really get any benefit, you are just trying to be nice to others.
But telling a lie to get out of trouble?
"I did not have sex with that woman".
"I did not drink the last beer".
"I don't know who put that scratch on your car".
Nope, don't do that.
Your word needs to be gold.

Steve's sold hot dogs, and there was also a doorway between
Steve's and TOTS that sold Sabrett's hot dogs. I can't remember the guy's name that would go to NY to pick them up, but those were some higher quality dogs.

Walking, jogging, cycling, or elliptical, the article mentions those.
The question for me is whether there is a significant advantage to jogging or cycling over walking, so long as you are getting your heart rate to the desired levels.

Had my second one last Friday, but different prep.
Fasting the day before, then used Sutab tablets. 12 of them (4-5 minutes apart) starting at 6pm, then 12 more at 1am the day of the procedure. I've never had the liquid prep, but have also never heard anybody say good things about it.
Hopefully the report is good.

So correct me if I'm wrong JD
You're saying that in their prime, you would take Nicklaus straight up over Woods? Does the course matter, or you're taking Fat Jack over Tigger regardless?
