    Then I realized he’s in grad school, and it became awkward.

    I ordered a replacement glass lens cover for the back of my phone yesterday at 1:00 and it was in my mailbox at 10:00 this morning. This both pleases and amazes me. It’s not like it’s a super common item, yet they can get it, and get it to me in under 24 hours. I’m old enough to remember when you bought something from TV or a catalog they’d tell you to expect six to eight weeks for delivery.

    I was promised pummeling, all I saw was forced to the ground. Definitely needed more pummel.

    Getting old sucks

    When the spine Dr tells you there’s going to be a slight pinch with an injection he’s straight up lying to you. Solid 9 out of 10 on the pain scale!

    Can you sue a Sheriff in Texas for refusing to protect someone? Situation here on the beach. 82 year old handicapped man had his adult stepson move in with him to “help” him out. Stepson abuses and threatens said oldster, is said to be bipolar. He’s arrested, restraining order is written. Guy continues to show up, has cut all the water lines to the house broken a window, etc. and been picked up multiple times but never held more than a few hours, maybe overnight. The neighbors have banded together looking out for the man, and the dude showed up across the street at a weekender’s house and was sitting on their porch, but the Sheriff has said they won’t arrest him because whacko has a cancer diagnosis and a colostomy bag and they don’t have the facilities to hold or treat him. Any recourse against the Sheriff?

    Sad, just have to pray your kid has more sense than that even though you tell them not to follow the BS they see on social media. The story says a few days after the funeral the brother explained what happened. Pretty sure someone was asking long before then.

    100% NOT a classic car, but I didn’t see anywhere else to ask. I bought a new Ram a few months ago, but by ol’ stand by almost daily driver is an ‘07 Jeep Grand Cherokee with 120k miles. I keep it around because it’s a decent ride, and living on the beach I don’t care if it rusts. Anyway, it may just be in my head because I tend to worry about crap like this , but it seems like there’s a slight hesitation in my transmission when I put it in gear. I’ve never had it serviced, and I hear conflicting op about working on higher mileage transmissions. Any opinions?

    Should have been a female teacher. When they do the same thing the the kids are lucky and where were these teachers when I was a kid?

    Still organizing stuff in storage. We have 5 complete sets of wedding china we’ve inherited from our great great grandparents down to our parents. Old but not particularly valuable unless you want to sell one piece at a time on eBay for 10 bucks. Since it’s been in the family for so long we keep thinking maybe one of the kids somewhere in the family tree may want them some day. They will not.

    I’m a Pepsi guy. For some reason Buc-ees has stopped carrying all Pepsi products. It’s the only decent c-store in this town.

    I’ve probably seen 35 minutes of Newsmax total. Dan Abrams show I think. As I said in my original post, no opinion. But sure… I watch Newsmax. It defines who I am.
  15. GoPokes83
    I said I’d seen Newsmax. May as well give ‘em all a try, unless you’re going to be told third party how to think and what to watch it never hurts to check something out. Also I don’t WATCH Fox News. I’ll turn it on if there’s some breaking national news, but not exclusively. If CNN has better camera angles or whatever I’ll watch that. I don’t watch the news-explainers on any of the networks. I’m pretty good at thinking for myself.
  16. GoPokes83
    NO F’n C/R!! What news sources are your go to’s and why. I’m usually good with local news, (Fox 26 out of Houston.). If some national event is going on I’ll switch over to one of the 24 hour news networks, and usually wind up on Fox. I’ve checked out Newsmax recently, no opinion. My all time favorite was Al Jazeera America back when it was available.

    I listened to less than 2 minutes of Nick Jonas’s wife and had to bail

    One of her fondest childhood memories is probably seeing Peter Pan on TV with Sandy Duncan or Mary Lou Retton as Peter, but this is somehow completely different.

    Jovan Musk or Brut if I had a date back in ‘79. Sometimes I’d swing by the drugstore on my way and just blast whatever they had a sample of.

    Got rid of a box with a ton of electronics that I’d been holding on to forever this weekend . 1st gen iPod, couple of solar calculators, 3 old off brand tablets, digital picture frame, a Blackberry, a small 10mp camera that was the shit back in the day, and too many cords and cables that I have no idea what they went to and will never need again until next week. Not really relevant to this thread as they weren’t still used, just thought it was weird that the entire box of stuff electronics is now on my phone.

    James and the Giant Peach cancelled for kindergarteners in Spring Branch. Absolutely positively fuck this Karen with a barbed wire wrapped telephone pole!

    Probably in the double digits already

    Although I generally boycott anything George Lopez I may give this one a shot, just because Marisa Tomei and Esai Morales are in it.

    Glad they included Hawaii
