Now I want a salad from Lamberts

Forget the salad, I want one of their sandwiches. Those things are amazing.

I want a sub from Capriotis. But last time I went and ordered a large I unwittingly got a 2 foot sub. I thought large was 1 foot.

However

One reason I can say I have been more positive and upbeat lately is I listen to this artist everyday. Hes positive, upbeat and motivational. Prolly NSFW.............doubt anyone would check him out since IDK if anyone really listens to rap here. Like how he raps bout being a single father and always has his son around.

Newest video



listen to this song everyday tho

Oh No. Take care

Thanks Ladyfan (Susan?). A week out from surgery and it’s still painful but manageable. The worst part is having no energy and being stuck in bed all day, makes for long days. I’m gaining mobility though and working on strengthening my quad by raising my leg as much as I can. I was able to do 30 push-ups yesterday too. I still can’t put much weight on it.

Just don't do anything you are not supposed to !

That live series from Bruce is all kinds of excellent. Could use a little more Jungleland, tho.

So here's a fun story. We do trivia on Tuesdays. Trev comes when he's home, otherwise we have a team of about 6 or 7 that I play with. There are anywhere from 6-17 teams and we are usually in the top 4. So we hate when it's Spring Training here because the group of Texas Rangers journalists, who call themselves Fake News, join the game and usually beat us...and everyone else. So we try extra hard to strategize and leverage our strengths. Well, last week we beat them! 800+ points and we were first. (you basically win free wings, so it isnt monetary or anything prize wise). So the dude came over and congratulated us and shook our hands. Then, he did this hilarious tweet. It's basically all in good fun. but it was as hoot to beat them. Our team is My Dear Watson.

There is nothing more satisfying than finally beating someone/a team that normally gets the better of you. I'll always remember in my early twenties finally beating a guy in pool that used normally whoop my ass, I celebrated as if I had won the Stanley cup!

Enjoy.

I just bought a new server for the office computer system. I was pleasantly surprised at the price . Today I bought a new software program for it. I was not pleasantly surprised

 

[Bruinaura]

How awful!

I do wonder why an 11-year-old was playing on a train bridge.

And the poor engineer, knowing there's absolutely nothing he can do.

Since my PS4 hasnt worked the last 4 weeks. Something to do with my external drive not being able to read my game data which basically ALL my saved games are. I have been playing this hockey agent game on my phone. Kind of interesting but once u get passed 20ish seasons it all gets redundant and kinda of stupid. Like I am the #1 hockey agency in the game, worth 1.5B and one of my players dads is saying they are leaving cuz another agency will help get his son on a better team. Um I know scenarios like that exist buuuuuuuuuuuuuuut............im the #1 agency son..........



Need to get this PS4 looked at, dont want to reformat my drive and lose all my saved games............

Yep. Hardware is cheap. Software is where the $$ are now

Probably weird to hear but living in Vegas is boring. At least in Cali I could drive to the beach if the weather was nice.

A perk for being stuck working Flyers/Rangers tomorrow

I don't remember much about the 80's - thank goodness

I have had 2 flu shots in the last 10 years, this year being one of them, ironically, those two years are also the one`s I have suffered with the most brutal of flu`s post flu shot

Jealous. Whenever I think of heading to New York, I think of getting tickets, and then realize that the SNL lottery for us plebs is in like August for the entire season. I don't know what I've seen John Mulaney in other than in other episodes of SNL possibly, and various YouTube clips, but I vaguely recollect enjoying him.

I'm old enough that I haven't caught the episode yet. Also old enough that David Byrne is the first artist this season whose music I'm ACTUALLY familiar with on purpose. Being a fan of his from his Talking Heads days, I saw him when he was trying out his American Utopia at the Colonial. Definitely...different. Not quite a concert. Not quite Broadway.

Every time I tell myself not to do Kroger pickup on the weekend ever again.

And then inevitably I do it again. They are terribly understaffed, the one guy they have doing it is slower than molasses in January, and traffic is backed up so bad to get into the area that people can't get into the drive thru pharmacy area.

Walmart is sooooooo much better at this.

Watched this this weekend,



Such a tough watch, even for those of us in the field.

So many layers to it. So many people failed this little boy.

I’d love to say I don’t understand how this could happen, but with such a taxed, flawed and downright messed up system, sadly, I can see how it did.

Not an excuse for anyone....just the facts.

The sad, harsh, cold facts.
