@CarBusinessMan Those dealer mark-ups during Covid are really coming back to be a real kick in the shorts, aren’t they? Ask @villaford and @ToyotaOfOrange how they did during COVID.

The average dealership is sitting on nearly $20M in real estate and facility costs. Add rising inventory levels, slowing sales, high interest rates, and expensive fuel, and the pressure on dealers is real. Fixed costs are a problem.

Proud to unveil the Luce Migliore A Ferrari electric vehicle designed by me and ChatGPT in 8 seconds at a cost of $0.10

@M_Sand09 @thwacknicklaus @LamkinGrips That’s AWFUL news! Thanks for the heads up!

@thwacknicklaus @imrstack @LamkinGrips Superstroke bought them and they make the Crossline 2.0 now. It’s pretty much the same grip as the old Lamkin Crossline. 🐐

Fun fact: Not wearing a glove (and playing true cord grips) eliminates this as an issue altogether.

@girdley San Antonio is a choice

To me, this is the best real estate in the world. 1/3 acre lots, 2 hours (by car) to the beach, low-traffic highways in every direction, great public schools, a 2.5 hr flight to LA, and complete privacy (because nobody visits). Current entry-level price: $59,000.

@JohnPetersonFW I’d keep it. Seems like it’s what your, and your future, family’s future will be built on.

I bought 265 acres in Weatherford, Tx in January 2016. At the time it was rural and its purpose was to raise my kids hunting and fishing as much as possible. Fast forward to 2021 and my neighbor sells his 220 acres to a developer. I now have 2 acre lots down my entire western fenceline. That doesn’t change what we do at all, it’s just annoying sitting in the deer stand and hearing nail guns at 7 am… So now I’m left with a tough decision…the best way to monetize it would be to chop it up, replat it myself and piece off smaller lots. Or go the data center route… The last option and the one I’m leaning towards is keep it. My cost basis is so low, my kids love it, and the holding cost is minimal since it’s all in Ag. What would you do?

@jasonablack Anyone ever get a clubhouse / grill menu pic? Hope you played well!

Entry / Locker / Room view. Pretty solid start.

@therealmcnair Air Clipper > Chippers.

Damn. A lot to take in here. -Orange Connexion probably the goat of these. -Original Zcore was nice -Gen1x was sneaky

@WillieCok Use the plates, your feet & the yardage markers….save the money..you’ll be good….promise 🤝

I have a $100 pro shop credit. My range finder was stolen late last year. Home club has a blue tees one for $200, essentially $100 after the credit. Friend of mine who owns a golf shop in town told me he’d give me a bushnell v7 shift at cost, $300. Help

@therealmcnair Not disagreeing but Aussies are pretty good too.

Get an 🇺🇸 coonhound. Great companions.

Anyone got any tips for flying with clubs? Travel bag recs, packing procedure, whatever yall can think of. Still deciding soft or hard case but need some opinions if yall got em!

@_raymondwill @yonex_com

What golf brand flies under the radar? Whether it's apparel, footwear, or equipment? Who's actually crushing it?

@oeingoboeing You were @ToyotaOfOrange ?

I don't like being bullshitted by a place I contracted with to simply replace tires and do an alignment on my 2.5 year old SUV...especially when I was just underneath it yesterday replacing the brakes they say are "worn-beyond-limits." "Oh, you don't say? That's surprising...since I literally just replaced them myself yesterday and the car has less than 50 miles on them." "Oh..." "Yeah...oh." "Well your rear shocks are leaking." "No they are fucking not." I used to know almost everyone that worked at this particular Pep Boys from the manager on down. It used to be a place I could trust to send my wife if she had car issues while I was out of town. Since I was last in, there's apparently been a lot of change.

@CharlesFlieger @1ssve Then when you’re three minutes late one time because school drop-off was a mess, “you working a half day today?”

@1ssve Don’t forget asking all his coworkers, “Hey Jim! Are you workin’ hard, or hardly workin’?!?”

A boomer’s perfect work day: - Show up to the office at 8am - 9 hours of Zoom calls with people working from home - 25 minute paid lunch break - Leave at 6:30pm and drive 1 hour home - Spend 12 minutes with your kids before they go to bed

@polydao @CrowdStrike

Atlassian's revenue: $1.79 billion last quarter Atlassian's move: fire the engineer who built their infrastructure his move: post a 38-minute breakdown of every system he built, free for anyone to copy what he revealed: > Envoy proxy instead of enterprise load balancers > sidecar architecture for auth, logging, rate limits > DynamoDB + SQS for async provisioning > Packer + SaltStack for automated VM deployments at scale Atlassian charges per employee across 350,000 customers this guy just handed you the enterprise playbook for free save this

@therealmcnair Arnie - this is impossible to do. Dogs only know trust and they know their trust was in the right place with you. I hope you and your family find slivers of peace in the upcoming days and weeks.

Tough news. Took my dog in this morning for some stomach issues and just got call that has a tumor in his heart. On way to put him down. Nothing they can do. Belts and sweaters all shipping and in process will ship in May. Will be out of commission for a bit. 💔

@Hania16836 Impossible to be more in favor of this. The only thing which would improve this would be an old trusted dog hanging on the grass watching them.

@girdley Ask @McIlroyRory & @JustinThomas34 about @dominos. They’re fans.

Private equity bought beloved Texas burger chain Whataburger in 2019. Customers have complained about a decline in burger/fry/drink quality and service since. PEs answer? Franchising and menu expansion. You see this pattern across business. “We aren’t growing? Let’s add a frappuccino machine!” — Makes me think of Domino’s and their turnaround last decade. They focused on fixing their pizza (it was bad) and ease of ordering (online/app). I have snobby friends that say “Dominos is good pizza” now. — It’s easy to dance around the core problems facing a business. And kid ourselves about what’s really wrong. It’s often that a business has lost sight of what made it successful in the first place.

@therealmcnair AM UV / SPF shirts 😎🌴🤙🏼

While our focus is on delivering all outstanding product to customers as quickly as possible, a quick update here. We’re going to do a small, quick summer run in mid-June once the entire spring release is delivered. That release will include: -T-shirts -McNair polos -Arnie polos -Washington shorts Before that, likely in early June, we’ll reopen orders for belts and wallets as all current orders are slated to be fully delivered over the next two weeks. That will be the final belt and wallet run of the year. Then we gear up for fall. Fall release is currently targeted for August with late September delivery and will include: -More Italian cashmere sweaters -USA-made cotton cableknit sweaters -Jefferson pants -McCarthy corduroy -Long sleeve McNair polos -A new pique polo -Potentially a vest with two way zipper A lot of work ahead, but we’re incredibly excited about what’s coming. If the fall release goes well, our plan is to begin stocking basic items like white and blue McNair polos, white and khaki Washington shorts, etc. for immediate delivery in addition to our releases for 2027.

@MyGolfSpy @Evnroll @vgolfman you know who I can talk to about the old school black & white putter cover?

@MyGolfSpy @Evnroll Odyssey Milled…. Circa 2008

What's the one putter you've stuck with the longest? Mine is the @Evnroll ER2. Been using it on and off since 2016. Drop yours below.
