@dorgaldir I have but it's been a few years. We evaluated different scope change options, but largely leveraged the SAP Middleware (I'm not remembering that acronym now) and Salesforce Connect with the netweaver gateway to provide views of data that didn't need to be replicated in.

The benefit of the original proposition is that of ongoing income having a property that could be used as Rental property, which is true regardless of potential selling value.

It's also true that nothing is risk free. Just handling over cash to a higher ed institution rather than offsetting cost with something that produces income AND has potential future value in itself seems wise.

Seriously thinking about this actually.... Several kids and just got through a period of real financial strain. What if we started investing in real estate in lieu of educational savings accounts? Hmm.

@realcaseyrollins interesting idea. After becoming a parent (now of several kids) I became more friendly to the question of why parents of adult children should be obligated to pay for college. 🤔

The state of college/university also has me concerned about the ROI of a tuition bill.

I like the idea better of having a family business that adult children can help run and this pass it on. An airbnb/rental setup could do nicely for that, I like the idea better of my many kids benefiting from investing in the family business rather than expecting extremely large cash allowances for years into adulthood.

#Denver residents: Another reminder that your Democrat government hates you.

Denver to cut citizens hours to zero to illegally hire noncitizens not authorized to work in the US.

I didn't know I wanted to learn patience today. But I'm at a car dealer. Here we go.

@swcollings what kinds of job are you looking for?

@steele
"Fall on your knees"
Always gets to me. Lines like Meek and mild... No crying he makes... Communicate such a soft cuddly story... But Mary, Joseph, and the shepherds had to be told to not fear.

The true story is traumatic and contains highs and lows in the most extreme possible ways.

Divorce and abandonment was avoided before, real risk of death due to a king's rage would soon follow. The barriers between realms was torn open and non human beings were appearing with messages for humanity as very God through whom all of reality was created and is sustained came in the form of a newborn baby.

To me, the line to "Fall on your knees" is a reminder of the weighty significance of the reality of the incarnation.

@swcollings sorry to see this in my feed this morning. Do you have plans or leads for what's next?

@Smeeagain @TwistedEagle trump write in votes won't be counted if this ruling stands. Check out this article from a few years ago explaining it. It seems to be up to the Jenna who championed this effort to defend democracy by blocking votes for the leading candidate.

To protect #democracy we must not let people vote for him. This is not voter suppression because people can still vote for candidates not yet removed from the ballot, and is not election interference because there will still be an election... Between candidates our four #Colorado justices approve.

@realcaseyrollins @news @fuat2mb is this real? Trump telling his supporters to not cast their votes? I'm skeptical. All I found was a link to the entire 84 minute recording. Anyone got a video of Trump telling his own people to not cast their votes?
