@DominicOverEL @couchandtherube @groovy_donuts @FireKeepers @tradingaddicts @DominicOverEL Ruth's Chris? You've obviously never been to St Elmos.

@couchandtherube @groovy_donuts @FireKeepers Bonus- When I stay at @tradingaddicts AirBNB in Indy for the Final Four, can you do an LSJ feature column on us? And can it be done at a Ruth’s Chris? And will you pay with your Marriott Card? And we can we drink Johnnie Blue?

🚨 🎙️❓We'll answer your questions, presented by @Groovy_Donuts, during our FRIDAY MORNING show, presented by @FireKeepers Casino and iCasino and Sportsbook. Have one? Reply by 8 a.m. or #CouchandTheRube

@couchandtherube @groovy_donuts @FireKeepers I agree with you, Scott hitting those shots will hopefully be a good thing for him moving forward. His defense is still very good. Think he is critical to the team's success in the tournament. Nice to see nothing but net on the 2 three's. Fort playing a lot of minutes as well.

Over the course of my life, I have shoveled snow dozens of times, and not ONCE have I ever needed an ID. Never needed a passport to go to work either. Hell, my drivers' license is sufficient to board a plane as long as I'm flying within the continental U.S. These jackasses are doing a verbal sleight-of-hand. They keep saying "You can't do ___ without an ID," to make it seem like DEMs are being unreasonable. "Oh, why are you so opposed to voter ID? You need an ID to buy cigarettes / buy beer / watch a sunset." But they're not telling the whole story, they think everybody's dumb: they want you to THINK they're just talking about drivers' licenses as ID. They're NOT. Their stupid "SAVE Act" does not find drivers' licenses, college IDs, or even military IDs as acceptable -- you need a passport. That costs $165. And in order to get a passport, you need a certified birth certificate. So THAT is a big difference, isn't it? Drivers' license to buy beer? Fine, no prob. Drivers' license to vote? Sure, I have that. BIRTH CERTIFICATE AND PASSPORT TO VOTE? Now you have to make an appointment to apply for a copy of your birth certificate, then get passport picture taken, PAY $165 for passport, wait 4-6 weeks. If you had to do all that to buy a beer, buy a pack of cigarettes, or shovel snow, you'd rightly be pissed. Now apply that to voting. They're ALSO not saying how their unconstitutional POLL TAX bill does away with mail-in ballots. It's not a voter ID bill. It's a voter suppression bill.

@freepsports Click bait. They don't know the time yet.

When does Michigan State play Louisville in next March Madness game? Time, TV freep.com/story/sports/c…

How's everyone's 201k's doing?

I just threw up in my mouth.

Aides to all four other living US presidents tell CNN’s @Sam_Waldenberg and @jeffzeleny that they haven’t spoken to Trump about Iran. Trump claimed today that a former president endorsed the war by telling him “I wish I did what you did.” cnn.com/world/live-new…

Good!

@Graham_Couch @AustinMerwin3 Yeh, you do. I bought that one and let family know-then changed it to the right one.

@AustinMerwin3 I don't know. But it's not right. I have the right time in there now.

Anyone putting out fake tip times is a jackass. No one has time for this.

He should be out practicing for his job.

He always had. the best teams money can buy. Just now it's legal.

Very good column. Ansered some questions I had.

And incompetence .

Then why would you take them off?

@tradingaddicts It carried over from football the last 2 seasons.

@ralph_e At 25-6? Fuck dude, don’t sit in my section.

Yesterday Mark Cuban reposted my work, DM'd me, and told me to keep telling my story. So here it is. I'm a Master Electrician. IBEW Local 369. 15 years pulling wire in Kentucky. Zero coding background. I didn't go to Stanford. I went to trade school. Every week I'd show up to a home where someone just bought a Tesla or a Rivian. And every time, someone had already told them they needed a $3,000-$5,000 panel upgrade to install a charger. 70% of the time? They didn't need it. The math is in the NEC — Section 220.82. Load calculations. But nobody was doing them for homeowners. Electricians upsell. Dealers don't know. And the homeowner just pays. I got angry enough to build something about it. I found @claudeai. No coding experience. I just started talking to it like I'd explain a job to an apprentice. "Here's how load calcs work. Here's the NEC code. Now help me build a tool that does this." 6 months later — @ChargeRight is live. Real software. Stripe payments. PDF reports. NEC 220.82 calculations automated. $12.99 instead of a $500 truck roll. I'm still pulling wire. I still take service calls. I wake up at 5:05 AM for work. But something shifted. Yesterday @vivilinsv published my story as Claude Builder Spotlight #1. Mark Cuban saw it. The Claude community showed up. And for the first time, I felt like this thing I built in my kitchen might actually matter. I'm not a tech founder. I'm a dad who wants to coach little league and be home for dinner. I just happened to build something that helps people. If you're in the trades and thinking about using AI — do it. The barrier isn't technical skill. It's believing you're allowed to try. EVchargeright.com

@tradingaddicts I'm running out of lucky shirts.

@ralph_e I’ve got several different pairs that are also undefeated, so I have options. Once we lose, they’re gone.
