# | Reminder: Third Annual TKP Tailgate to Benefit Women's Resource Center of NRV Dear Mrs. Hokie Fireman,
Love,
Hokie07ME and the rest of the TKP community
The market never truly bottoms out in August. Wait until September or even October for a reliable bottom before you go shopping.
And... Pumpkin pie is a nice safe haven this time of year.
Season Prediction: Yeah, I do think we step out of the gate, at home, and win against #1 OSU, and get ranked top 15. Then we drop the Furman game, too tired to compete, unprepared, and unmotivated, and losing that top 15 ranking.
Are we thinking of the same Furman? The one that finished 3-9 last year?

# | Reminder: Third Annual TKP Tailgate to Benefit Women's Resource Center of NRV This spot also has a really good unload zone right across the street from where we will be set up. It's just a little turn around circle right next to the dam that sees nearly no traffic. It is a good place to unload gear before you go find a parking spot, assuming you do not have a Lot 18 pass.
**Edited this post to show the map of the lot. We should be set up in the corner of the lot next to Duck Pond Dr and the creek. And then just spread out from there.
I'll be there in Lot 18 Duck Pond.
Two legs if I could.
One for the gif, and one for this reference:

I'll be there, as always. Wouldn't miss this one for the world. Probably tailgating at the Lutheran Church at the corner of Prices Fork and Toms Creek. May try to make it down to the TKP tailgate, though.

# | Reminder: Third Annual TKP Tailgate to Benefit Women's Resource Center of NRV My pass is at lot 18 and you can see a white truck from our group in the background, that is our perennial spot.
I'll be there bright and early Monday morning.
I'll see if I can get some traffic cones and set'em up there to reserve your spot for you.
Woooo. Lot 8 represent!
So as of 9:45 am on Tuesday, the major indexes seem to be on the upswing. No telling if this will sustain itself just yet, but a lot of basic technical indicators seem to show a slowing down of the sell off. If you have any money on the sidelines and want to make a quick buck, that opportunity might be presenting itself here in a bit!
Best thing about Cardale is he's seemed bothered that this has become a perception of him. Shows signs that he's not OK with it and regrets it years later. All accounts have indeed shown that he's always been a good 3.0+ student and he genuinely wants his degree. Was reading a piece on NFL.com the other day where anonymous GM was saying he could've potentially been a top 15 pick in last year's draft because of all the physical tools he has. He passed on that to, in his words, be the first in his family to earn a college degree.
So completely torn on who I want to be the starter, both as far as strategy goes as well as them as people. One thing I do know is I won't be disappointed with either one.

# | Reminder: Third Annual TKP Tailgate to Benefit Women's Resource Center of NRV Is there a way to contribute money directly since I cannot make it to the tailgate? I live in Maryland, but I would still like to contribute to this worthy cause. Thank you.
Jae
P.S. Thanks to TKP for supporting this cause.
...Marcus Davis?
You are pretty spot on. Basic Keynesian theory revolves around the idea that the government is a temporary economic driver during periods of downturn or recession. They become a big ticket purchaser in things like roads, bridges, military equipment, etc. But the government itself does not own or manage the firms that provide these items.
In China, for the past several decades, the government is basically the permanent economic driver. Couple that with the fact they also own most of the assets in the economy or control them indirectly through various forms of manipulation, state run banks, etc.
It is a subtle distinction on the permanent vs temporary nature, but a key one. So China really doesn't fit the mold of classic Keynesian theory.
Also interesting to note would be that under the theory, China's first response to their tumbling stock market or slowing growth rate would be to "print money" to prop it up. They havnt decided to do this. Speculation suggests this also may be causing some of the biggest divides behind closed doors that the CCP has ever faced.
I assume that is your tailgating shirt
SET THE TONE!

# | Hokies RB Trey Edmunds Ready for a Season with "No Limp, No Gimp" After Several Injury-Filled Months I excelled on this section of the SATs. I had to have something to compensate for the math section.
You talking about Marshall or Dadi? We've also got Hansen pretty dinged up.
Yeah, I can understand that. For us desperate for the season to start, it's a fun glimpse (even with no real substance) into the world of the program we get all bent out of shape about on saturdays in the fall. Certainly can see why anyone outside of the OSU fanbase would roll their eyes at it. I mean I sort of do as well, but...did I mention it's almost fall??
Did someone say 13 days?
I'm late to the party on this, but I would never, NEVER eat cotton candy. No matter how hungry I am.
