Just bought a SUP. Been borrowing my sister's for years and she's now annoyed with me.


Tough thing to shop for, the market and variety is huge. I'm not great, so I just want something basic and all around. 


Ended up with this, great reviews and price. Last year's model with a $50 off coupon code.

New fridge was delivered today. We replaced an old side-by-side that can burn in hell.

No "smart fridge", with the highly useful screen on the door? You must be poor.

After going to French door years ago I'll never go back to side by side.  You use the fridge like 80% the time and it's nice to have everything at waist level and above.

My wife would not let me get a fridge with any bullshit on it.  Not even water and ice.  She prefers easier to clean.  Ours looks just like yours.

Bought a property south of Canton < 5 minutes from I-77.  2.5 acres country setting on a low traffic road.  A wall of mature trees surrounding the gently sloping backyard.  My wife and I won't be ready to sell our current home until early next year as we are finishing up some remodeling upstairs.  This also give us time to make a slow move and make any changes we would like to the new house prior to move in.  It has a two stall detached shop with one side built deep enough for an RV and stand height attic so lots of storage while moving.

Our children have all settled in Canton, North Canton, and Stow.  Being closer to our grandchildren and having a place to have some outdoor fun with them so we were just checking things out.  My wife: did you see this property? Me: no.  I look and say we got to check this out.  We had looked at other properties.  When we saw it we knew.  I told the realtor you will have an offer and this property is going to sell above asking.  They have this escalating offer (similar to a silent action but topping a bid up to a certain point) and the owner accepted our offer at 11k below our max and 16% above asking.

Since we are talking about contemplated purchases a dry aging fridge is on the horizon.

curious how it's different from a normal fridge. but i don't hate the purchase at all.


my future purchase is increasingly looking like a new home in OK. it appears as thought i'm going to get jetted in a regime change at my current job and i've lined up a couple options in that case, the best of which is in OKC again. I love OKC but hate having to move again and definitely hate moving away from our original home. though i'll say that OKC increasingly felt like my new home the longer i lived there. its a weird feeling growing up and coming to that realiztion, that home isn't home anymore.

Maintaining temperature and humidity.  You can dry age in your fridge I have done it for years.  If its your main fridge you get a lot of opening and shutting of the doors.  I want to get into longer age times so I want a more controlled environment.

Have you tried the dry aging bags? I think they let air out but don't let air in.

I have not.  But it looks interesting so I am going to give it a try to see what results I get.

I get what you’re saying.  I was born and raised in Columbus.  I lived there a couple of years after college, but have basically been gone for 25+ years.  Cleveland is where I’ve lived >50% of that time, with stretches in the southeast, Indy and St. Louis.


I love Columbus, but Cleveland feels more home to me now.  My daughter grew up here, so that’s part of it.  Also Columbus has changed so much from the place it was when I was growing up.  It feels like theColumbus of my childhood doesn’t exist anymore.  Nothing wrong with that, but that’s the reality.

New Balance has always had really comfortable footwear - I assume these are ncie as well?

Yep, super comfortable. I was a huge fan of the 574 Sport they released a while back, but then they screwed with the design and now I can't find them anymore.
