    In lieu of a "groan" emoji. Good job.

    Pretty sure there is an exemption if it is above the Arctic Circle

    Thanks, Mister Flinthead. I knew you would have my back.

    As you may or may not know, there is a mental health thread in "Can You Help Me With This?" that has a lot of good info and supportive help for anybody dealing with mental health issues and general well being. I'm on my phone and unable to post a link but it won't be hard to scroll down and find the thread. @cactusflinthead and @Lidig8r are a couple of the more prominent keepers of the flame in that thread. Check it out.

    I doubt this will help but I remember a story about a pitcher and a batter that had a spat and then became teammates before the retaliation took place. They stayed on the same team for several years and became friends before one of them was traded away. The next time they faced each other, the batter got drilled. When asked why, the pitcher said that he owed it to him. I'm pretty sure it was back in the 70s or maybe earlier.

    Not at all the look I expected after listening to a few of his tunes on Spotify. Great stuff

    Hang in there, buddy. As usual, @Lidig8r said all of the things that I would want to tell you but in a much more coherent fashion. We are all pulling for your recovery. I know it isn’t much but you are important to me and lots of others here.

    I like the way you think, we should be friends. Wanna go to Branson?

    I had both of my knees replaced at 53 so you are right on schedule. Like @nnm said, there are dietary things that can help and dropping a few pounds won't hurt either.

    Yeah, this is us. I try to cook smaller quantities but it never seems to taste the same as making a full batch. I need to pull the trigger on a vacuum sealer.

    Are the oceans overharvested or did we just blow the fuck out of the fish population?

    Last January I had my regular 6 months visit to my doctor to have my A1c checked and whatnot. I had not been diligent in my sugar avoidance over the Holidays and my number had jumped to almost 9. It had been 6.5 prior to that. Doctor wanted me to switch away from metformin to something else. I said ,no, I want to get back to my regular sugar-free ways, do more walking and see if we could get it back down. I went back yesterday for my visit and my A1c was at 6.9 and I am 11 pounds lighter. She was impressed. I do have a stress fracture in my right foot, probably from the walking and hiking. That sucks.

    Good luck. I'm hoping for the best.

    “I understand what Canada has in place right now. That’s the only reason that I would think about getting it at this point is to go to Canada,” Merrifield said. “That might change down the road. Something happens, and I happen to get on a team that has a chance to go play in Canada in the postseason, maybe that changes.” Hell of a teammate, right? We suck so I'll stick to my standards but if I get traded to a contender I'll give them up.

    I'm not sure which rep emoji I'm supposed to use here to let you know that I know that fucking sucks.
  22. Shoxthemonkey
    Yeah, I have 3 workspaces so I have accumulated most of the tools in triplicate. Doesn’t really make shit easier to find though.
  23. Shoxthemonkey
    Dead, you need to do better, be better. If you open your heart just a little, you’ll find the room to hate both groups.
  24. Shoxthemonkey
    As you should. I really want to go but I'm not 1%. Tough choice but I'll sit this out. Have fun for me. Our 50th anniversary is coming up and we have booked a lot of travel to celebrate.

    I shot an 80 with two dbls to win the 70-74 age flight at our annual Seniors Open in Marion. Our tallgrass rough is waist high and I stayed out of it all day. Had a lot of birdie putts and made none but lots of easy pars. All in all a good day. 8 guys in my flight so it wasn’t a gimme.
