Convince you of what? It depends on what you want to do.

Thyre nice picks, could use a bit more deburring, and mebbe some reprofiling on some of the picks like the half diamond.

Doing annual performance reviews and telling everyone that they have no chance to get promoted since they are not a shape shifting lizard person.

I am probably too sarcastic to be in management, yet here I am.

The Bogota worm is a great pick but somebody trademarked Bogotas as a name of a pick maker.

I've always wondered about these ads. You've seen all the commercials.

But what really happens when you ask for help with an erection lasting more than 4 hours?

I walked into a drug store and asked to talk to a male pharmacist.

The woman I was speaking with said she was the only pharmacist and since she and her sister owned the store, there were no male employees. She asked if she could help me.

I said that I really would have preferred to speak with a male pharmacist.

She assured me that she was completely professional and whatever it was that I needed to discuss,

I could be confident that she would treat me with a high level of professionalism.

I reluctantly agreed and began by saying, "As a shy man, this is tough for me to discuss, but here goes.

I get erections every day that last more than four hours. This condition causes me a lot of problems and severe embarrassment.

I was wondering what you could give me for it?"

The pharmacist said, "Just a minute, I'll talk to my sister."

When she returned, she said, "We discussed it at length and this is the absolute best we can do:

* 1/3 ownership in the store,

* a company pickup truck,

* a king size bed and

* $3,000 a month in living expenses."

Was at North 40 today getting some gear for work and spied a Kel-Tec Sub 2000 .40 S&W on the rack. Haven't seen any flavor of one of those in a very long time.

There's a Mitsubishi MRJ90 doing laps above me right now.

ETA- I'd never heard of one so I googled it and there are 4 in the world. Rare bird.
The first flight, scheduled after the design was finalized, was to take place in the second quarter of 2012, but was delayed to 2013, and then further delayed to spring 2014 due to delays in the procurement of engines. Likewise the first delivery was planned to take place in the first quarter of 2014, but was delayed to mid to late 2016.In August 2013, Mitsubishi announced a third major delay to the program, and that the first flight would take place by summer 2015 while the first delivery would take place by summer 2017. Delays in the procurement of the Pratt & Whitney engines and other components were cited as the cause of this delay.
In September 2013, after announcing the third delay to the MRJ program, Mitsubishi publicly displayed a prototype MRJ fuselage, including cockpit enclosure, and announced that it would hire foreign pilots and technicians to serve as consultants as the program progressed to safety testing and regulatory approvals.Pictures of the first fully assembled MRJ90 were available on 26 June 2014,[28] and an official rollout occurred on 18 October 2014.
The maiden flight of the MRJ90 took place on 11 November 2015. On 24 December 2015, Mitsubishi announced a one-year delay for the first delivery of the MRJ, to mid-2018. The delay was attributed to insufficient wing strength and the redesign of the landing gear for better safety.
Static strength test were completed on November 1, 2016 and confirmed that the airframe could withstand 1.5 times the maximum load.
We also often see KC-46 Pegasi (Pegasuses?), Omega Air to Air Refueling 707's, P-8 Poseidons, Boeing's dreamlifter, and sometimes Saudi prince Al Waleed's 747.

Cannabis is a big issue here too, of course. I've seen some recent proposals to do something about dealing with the income re: banking, etc.
