  1. Love this dance scene with Kirby (Bill Irwin) Bill Irwin dancing on Sesame Street And to stick with theme, Bill Irwin was also in Eight Men Out
  2. We don’t have a timeshare; however, we (my wife ) joined a travel club. $500/week for a small suite in Park City in the summer is worth it for what we paid up front (we also get discounts on Mexico trips). We’ve calculated the break-even point and will get out then. Too much BS.
  3. I agree with you. I grew up in Western NY. Wegmans beats HEB. The prepared foods section and deli counter kick ass.
  4. BottleRock replaced her with Chris Stapleton
  5. I was in the Virgin Islands once. I met a girl. We ate lobster and drank pina coladas. At sunset we made love like sea otters.
  6. Saw DMB when they put on a free show In Nashville on the waterfront. Mid 90s.
  7. Finished the book awhile back. I thought it was a great read and enjoyed the historical walkthrough of the Alamo story and how it has developed over time. The authors did a great job of describing the issues across different eras. The David Bowie story was pretty cool.
  8. My MIL is a big cruise person and we’ve done the Alaska cruise with her twice (Celebrity and Princess). I don’t remember much about the Princess cruise because we had two kids under 4 at the time so we didn’t do too much other than watch the kids. Did the Celebrity cruise in 2019 and had a blast. Kids were old enough to roam the ship with their cousins while we worked out, got massages, or hung around the pool (or bars) during the days at sea. There was some pretty good live entertainment at night and the excursions were fun. We had balconies so it was great to sit in quiet and check out the scenery.
  9. Yes; however, it’s not a significant gap. Whaaaaaat?
  10. As told to me by my mother, one of my sisters was flying 1st class a few years ago with her daughter (3 or 4 at the time). Sister let her daughter stand on the seat and throw things around the cabin all the while saying “she’s just trying to play”. Eventually a flight attendant put a stop to it after some discussion. I was not shocked to hear this story about this particular sister as she lived in FL for many years after graduating from high school.
  11. Is there a link to watch without a TV provider? We got rid of DTV two weeks ago.
  12. A don doesn’t wear shorts

    Deal-A-Meal program?
  14. Which has the better buffet these days, Sugar’s or Yellow Rose?
  15. Where are the hookers getting banged in the back of a car? Would a true GTA movie be doable?
  16. “Very smart” as defined by his upbringing, educational pedigree, and connections.
  17. Growing up in a small town in Western NY, this was a typical evening activity. We had several spots that offered great throwing lanes and multiple escape routes.
  18. He had an interesting life: “Before playing a fictional tough guy, he played one in real life after enlisting with the Air Force during the Korean War in 1951 where he flew secret missions. During his service, he made time for higher education he studied at institutions in Syracuse, Munich, and Paris before graduating Cum Laude from UCLA where he earned a master’s degree.” Fluent in several languages, he taught classes at the CIA and NSA. He was working on a doctorate when he signed with MGM. He was the last actor to portray the Marlboro Man in TV commercials. Great fight scene in Any Which You Can. More than 300 acting credits in his career.
  19. I didn’t know he removed my backpack until the FA asked who it belonged to as it was in the overhead of the row behind me. I was chillin in my seat reading a book. If I had witnessed him removing my bag, I would have had some words with the guy.
  20. Happened to me once on a redeye from SFO to NYC. Some dude removed my large backpack to make room for his. When it was clear both wouldn’t fit, FA was going to have mine checked until I explained what happened.
