    If I buy now, am I guaranteed to get that 9.62% rate for as long as I hold the bonds?

    No. That 9.62% rate is only the initial annualized rate on new I bonds sold from May through October of this year. That rate “is applied to the 6 months after the purchase is made,” the Treasury site says. “For example, if you buy an I bond on July 1, 2022, the 9.62% would be applied through January 1, 2023. Interest is compounded semiannually.”

    That seems weird. So if someone bought one in September they would get the 9.62% for six months then even if it went way down with the new calculation in October? So I guess you guys have plenty of time to jump on the i train this summer. 

  2. I agree @Jarrod_Uncut that it's really hard for a gay guy to try and meet guys to either just be friends with, go on a date with, or try and hookup with in a non gay setting. I asked one guy out at my last job who I totally thought was gay but he said he was actually bisexual and not really into guys much at all. So that felt weird then. You don't wanna be hitting on a straight guy because you don't know how people are going to react then. You said you dress "approachable" to give off hints. My one friend has a little gay pride necklace that he wears. Maybe get something like that? I was thinking about one but I'm not a jewelry guy and I also don't really need or want everyone I come into contact with to know I'm gay. Just don't think everyone needs to know.

  3. They have one in the mall by me. A coworker said it's fun. And they have like 5 or 6 different rooms for different age levels. Been wanting to go eventually but covid had it on the backburner. Also they are rerunning on NBC this Thursday night a Celebrity Escape Room special that originally aired last year. It was pretty funny so check it out if you missed it.

  4. I would have told him I only have cash on me and gotten out of there. Because if he broke anything in the hotel room you would have been charged for it! Or if he asked them to extend his stay another day or two! He comes to Buffalo often so thanks for the heads up.

  5. Along with Kate we also say goodbye to Aidy Bryant, Pete Davidson, & Kyle Mooney! I will miss Kate & Aidy. Pete & Kyle not really. You wonder with Kenan Thompson as well since he's been on forever but his sitcom got cancelled so he'll probably be back. Cecily Strong as well has taken a long time the last 2 or 3 years to commit to come back as well.

    The Yankees cut 2019 third-round pick Jake Sanford last Thursday for allegedly stealing from his minor league teammates and scamming people for money online. 

    You are allowed to steal bases and steal signs so he figured stealing equipment was fine! 😁

    Just bought in as well--I have to express my thanks to this forum for introducing me to the idea in the first place. I had to really do my research to make sure this was legit since the website looks straight out of 2001!!

    I know I felt like I was back in high school surfing the web. The government is painfully slow to update sites. I remember the NY unemployment website disaster once the pandemic hit. The site crashed from all the sudden traffic and a pop up message told people the site was best viewed using internet explorer or netscape browsers. They never had gotten money approved to update it.

    then another pesky guy who can’t seem to get his shit together either:

    and then more drama:

    That first guy is a total flake. Texts you at 6:30pm for 1:30 pm the next day and he says his car is "out" the next morning? What does that even mean!? Someone has it out? 🙄

    The second guy probably legitimately had stuff going on and couldn't make it work to meet. Like I've said on here I hate when guys pop up in Buffalo only available the same day. I need a couple days notice usually.

    And the third guy seems like he was hoping you'd quote him less since you had met with him before it sounds like asking for you to remind him of your rates. And bailed when you didn't. 

  9. This from wikipedia on Weaver & Lang:

    Sigourney Weaver: Weaver originally appeared in the first film as Dr. Grace Augustine, a human who takes the side of the Na'vi and dies during the conflict. Although both Weaver and Cameron confirmed that she would return in the sequels, she stated in 2014 that she would not play the same character.  Like most of the cast, she learned free-diving for the film and filmed scenes underwater.

    Stephen Lang as Colonel Miles Quaritch, who led the forces of the RDA, the human organization colonizing Pandora, in their conflict with the Na'vi in the first film. Although the character died at the end of Avatar, Cameron confirmed in 2010 that Lang would return in the first three sequels, stating, "I'm not going to say exactly how we're bringing him back, but it's a science fiction story, after all. His character will evolve into really unexpected places across the arc of our new three-film saga." He later stated that Quaritch would act as the main antagonist once again, in all four sequels. Lang's role will involve motion capture.

  10. Tell them to arrive an hour earlier than you actually want them so when they arrive they are on time then! 😁

    But yeah it's always a good idea to not have anything planned too close after your appt where you need it to begin and end exactly when you plan. Always give yourself buffer time. But yeah I always seem to notice when I'm hosting and a guy says he's on his way and will be there in 30 min it tends to be an hour always.

    That love is gonna cost ya...

    His pricing is not too unreasonable until you get to the fine print really where it gets iffy for me. First you're best to go to him to avoid the $50 outcall additional fee and if you want kissing then it's more as well it says. Plus he wants it all upfront when you meet.
