Thanks to your encouragement, I've been trying new ways of looking for opportunities. Using the finviz heat map on a 1-month timeframe set to "themes," after semiconductor packaging, the next best theme was genomics under healthcare/biotech. Already up 17% on TXG. Thanks! Travel safely.

$100 today has the same purchasing power that $11.61 had in 1970, according to the Minneapolis Fed. The dollar has lost the vast majority of its buying power over the past several decades.

I didn't think you were trying to insult anyone. Just clarifying that SOME of us men who drive trucks do so out of necessity. And, yeah, I do see a lot of both men AND women driving trucks accessorized to the point of making them impractical.

To be fair, I am a man who drives a truck. I am also a contractor who hauls a lot of heavy materials on rutted dirt roads (sometimes requiring 4WD) to job sites like this one, in a nature conservancy (and this is one of the more accessible ones)...

They sell it in both Alamosa and Salida. It's a fave of mine. In the fridge right now.

I prefer their Java Stout. It's available in select (discriminating) stores in both Salida and Alamosa.

Well, we got to play two songs for the La Vida Festival at Cheyenne Mountain Resort last night before a gusher of a storm moved in and wrecked the entire festival. Sadly, that meant we didn't get to check out The Iguanas from NOLA, who were headlining. What a disaster!

Sure will. It will likely be at the KV Estates club house on a Friday evening or Saturday afternoon next month. Waiting to hear from the EMS and VFD folks who are really interested in hearing from her. Seems they are very turned off by the other candidate.

To be fair, a lot of areas in my part of CO would look like this if all the standing dead from Pine Beetles were removed. In fact, the top of Poncha Pass near Salida now looks a lot like this. There's another area between Crested Butte and Lake City where entire mountainsides are standing dead.

Hi, again. Just wanted to let you know that Mrs. Dirtroaddweller will be appearing on your ballot in November for Saguache County Coroner. She's not the Republican candidate. She's the other one. We're trying to line up a meet & greet, if you'd be interested in coming and sharing. Cheers!

What we'd like vs. what we have... Who wouldn't take a brand-new Oyster over a 50 year-old Hobie, right? Someday, maybe, we'll get a blue-water cruiser that we can do remote work from, and sail away to retirement. Dream big, even if you have to start small.

If a man cares not which port he sails, all winds are favorable.

Dirtroaddweller @coindie.bsky.social · 18/08/2026
I'm not sure it would be differentiated much from the Cruise Industry, but I love the thought of it. I wonder how affordable it would be. As it is, my spouse and I have been considering selling our home, buying a decent blue-water yacht and working remotely via satellite.

Went for a short sail last night. Short due to the lack of any consistent wind. Struggled to make it back to the dock. Today is supposed to be better, but...

He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harass our people, and eat out their substance. He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures.

When I built my home a few years ago, my electric co-op offered a 50% rebate to install a heat pump. Also, a nearby town is building a 32-unit affordable housing complex and it will be heated/cooled with heat pumps in each unit.

Bishop Castle, known to most Coloradans and many visitors to our state, is under threat from wildfires. And on my side of the mountains, air quality has been listed as unsafe, with recommendations to stay indoors or relocate temporarily if smoke is making you feel ill.

Upon waking to a smoke-filled sky that made me feel like our entire nation is on fire, I immediately opened my podcast app to hear Clay Jenkinson read the Declaration of Independence on this, our 250th anniversary. I feel mournful, rather than celebratory, like we are only going through the motions.
