QUOTE (bmags @ Feb 7, 2018 -> 09:20 AM) Building is nowhere near out of control. There are severe housing shortages in most major metropolitan areas. If anything big issue is the drop in productivity plus labor shortage in construction making it difficult to build efficiently. I disagree, there is more funding for project than there are people to build them, and in many cases projects that shouldnt have ever been funded.. The surplus is going to reach a head, especially in chicago early next year.

QUOTE (Brian @ Feb 7, 2018 -> 09:36 AM) This signing day is gonna suck. /kicks rocks Yeah, not a great day for you guys. Scott Frost actually pulled in the 3rd ranked class in conference. -
The IRS doesnt even know how the new tax code works and I dont think it will be in place very long anyway. The real estate market is in hyperdrive and building is out of control. Once that crashes I believe we will be in another recession. And its probably a year or two away, so get money while its still cheap.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Feb 5, 2018 -> 03:16 PM) Followed the chaos into the close and blew out of my VIX calls on the last trade of the day at 2.5 X's what I got into it. I saw a lot of panic in the last hour of trade and think we might have gotten the capitulation I was looking for. I am going to look at getting back in tomorrow at a discount if things are more calmed down. I think its going to take more than just a day.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Feb 4, 2018 -> 01:25 PM) when is the last time Illinois played a basketball game where the officials weren't out to get them? I used to here it when watching games with my dad an UI grad and fanatic. My brother is the same way. Is that really the opinion in this game? They could have easily been called for 50 fouls. Maybe both fan bases and reporters think they were out to get them. -

Illinois is the hackiest bunch of hacks. I’m shocked the entire team didn’t foul out. They really let them get away with it. -
QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Feb 4, 2018 -> 12:14 PM) Can someone explain to me what the point of releasing this memo was? Outside of FOX News, which thinks this is the biggest story since Watergate, not one single news source thinks this helps the GOP in anyway. In fact, it seems to hurt them more than anything. What am I missing? It was Hannity who started it so he could keep pushing his conspiracy theories.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Feb 3, 2018 -> 08:56 AM) It checks more boxes than a Garmin Fenix 5? Overall? Yes. Especially the cell service and the fact our MFA solution works on it. It was just a good fit. So far its been ok, behaves a little weird but im sure ill learn.

So I caved and got an apple watch. I was researching hard for something that I could use for my tri training and it really checked the most boxes.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Feb 2, 2018 -> 01:57 PM) If you think this memo was releasing info on corruption within the FBI I am not sure we're living in the same world Yeah, I dont understand that point either.

Im honestly surprised that so many republicans wanted Clinton to win.

QUOTE (Tony @ Feb 1, 2018 -> 10:34 PM) Yeah...I don’t care if you don’t follow Hannity. I don’t either. What I do follow is who allegedly has the President’s ear. According to this story, it’s a right-wing blow hard who may or may not have seen this memo. Either way, it’s incredibly troubling, and a pattern that Sean Hannity is giving “advice” to the President of the United States. Over 100 people have seen the memo and they are all trying to make it partisan. Just like the memo. We are pathetic.

QUOTE (Tony @ Feb 1, 2018 -> 08:39 PM) I agree. Which makes it really weird that Trump is taking his cues from.....Sean Hannity. Has Hannity seen the memo? If he has, that’s a whole new issue. But if he hasn’t...why is Trump taking his advice on a memo he hasn’t seen??? https://www.thedailybeast.com/sean-hannity-...f-course-he-has All we can go on is a select group of people leaking vague hints. This is what we’ve come to. Pathetic.

QUOTE (raBBit @ Feb 1, 2018 -> 08:56 AM) It’s amazong how someone can know absolutely everything about a memo that is unreleased. Havent over 100 people already read it?

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jan 31, 2018 -> 11:54 PM) I do think the Intelligence Community will fight back, right or wrong attacking our own intelligence committee with partisan political crap to shield someone from investigation is dumb in itself. They are burning every single bridge possible and its moronic. If they truly didnt do anything wrong, then forget all of this crap and smokescreens and do your actual job.

You guys see that deep state garbage truck that tried to kill republicans?

How many people have MS-13 actually killed here?

Queue the reporters who had the Holtman vs Miller story already written. -
QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Jan 30, 2018 -> 12:16 PM) I hope Trump spends his whole SOTU address complaining about CNN and talking about how bad he beat Hillary Clinton in the election. Hes going to trash the FBI for at least 10 min.

QUOTE (Brian @ Jan 30, 2018 -> 09:56 AM) It is so packed after work now. I hate it. Can barely use any machines or weights until I go Sat and Sun morning. Just elliptical and stairmaster during week. I can never get to a class on time after work/dog walk, if I wanted to. Yeah that blows. I do OTF during the week and the classes are really getting full, but I understand people are trying to get in shape. I'm trying to be positive.
