  1. Good on you deej. I bet you both have 15 years of great life today!
  2. Misery loves company my man! And considering how long that implant has stayed in my brain, I bet it has in yours as well, huh?
  3. Song implant from hell: Sometimes you feel like a nut, Sometimes you don't Peter Paul Almond Joys got nuts Peter Paul Mounds don't
  4. The Bell Beefer at Taco Bell was part of my four food groups-and in the 60's/70's, the Bell Burger made my top ten late night list.
  5. How can anybody be so unkind, to arrest a man who is driving while blind?
  6. This just in: NEGATIVE PCR for me so I am out of quarantine and gratefully going back to work tomorrow.
  7. WOW! It's getting very smoky in my living room after watching the video. Thanks for posting.
  8. Exposure. My boss doesn't wear a mask in meetings and was diagnosed on Tuesday of last week. Those of us who have been in meetings (all wearing masks) in our conference room were all tested and so far, nobody has come back positive. Thanks for the prayers.
  9. I'm on my fifth day of quarantine today. The benefit of this is that I get to remain on the 7am zoom meeting for the entire hour and hear just what I need just when I need it. On Friday I received a call from my daughter in law in California telling me my son is not doing well. He was diagnosed as manic depressive as a teenager and given medication to help him maintain a level of emotional balance. When I spoke with him, he was definitely not on his medication, threatening to end his life, and overall, in a downward spiral. In addition, he is one of us and has relapsed, stating that the program is not helping him deal with his mental illness. I encouraged him not to follow through with his threat but to get back on his medication and report to his medical provider what is going on. I spoke to my ex and her husband after the call ended and they want to fly out there and save him from himself. We agreed to wait until we heard from his provider on Monday what our response should be and then Saturday, her husband flew out there anyway. Thank God I have a program that let's me keep my mouth shut in times like these and constantly reminds me to accept the things I cannot change. At this moment, I am serene in the knowledge that the God of my understanding has this situation and am comforted in knowing that He is my source of strength in good times and bad. While I am sad and somewhat in fear, I am going to continue to do the next right thing by trusting Him, speaking/listening to the spiritual mentors I have been blessed with, and awaiting the result of my PcR regarding Covid-19. It is my sister's 67th birthday and I am going to facetime her in Boise to tell her how much I love and appreciate her. It's a good day to be sober-hell, any day that ends in y is! Say a prayer for Clark today if you get a chance. Thanks. Glad to be here not wanting a drink.
  10. Yes it was! RIP to Shaver, one of outlaws best.
  11. These were never missed when I was growing up. Dad would have lit us up if we suggested something else when they were on.
  12. Saw this in Dallas at the Magnolia when it was released. Will give it a second look because I enjoyed it then.
  13. Watched American Utopia last evening and give it two thumbs up. From the first viewing of Stop Making Sense, I have hoped to see him and his friends again on stage and American Utopia did not disappoint. Enjoyed some of the early Talking Heads numbers but especially appreciated the versatility and diversity of the band.
  14. Definitely in and ready for tonight's second episode.
  15. The few times we went, it was as you said, a big drop off in quality. For the seven years we lived on Warner Road in Berkeley, it was the definitive breakfast choice and many times dinner as well.

    Joseph Ossai

    This right here. The executioner peers down on his condemned victim with no regret, no empathy, only knowing that the outcome is certain. Sanders is resigned to his fate and cannot look Ossai in the eyes.

    Joseph Ossai

    Did you see his eyes when they were tossing the coin for OT? Bill Bradley once was asked to call heads or tails and he replied it don't make a shit. Ossai's look said the same thing-no way you are going to win this game, I won't allow it.
  18. In for a Benjamin. With what I saved not attending Longhorn games thanks to Covid, this was not difficult. Thanks for the heads up Brisket. And you never know when someday we might find ourselves in this same boat-karma investments always have a good return.
  19. Olde Neighborhood Grill was a go to for CFS when Peter Schroeder was the owner-probably still decent, but haven't been in years. Massey's on 8th avenue back in the day was always a top choice as well. Lucille's, M&M, and Texas Roadhouse all do good work with the CFS.
  20. Me too-probably because I resemble them. Some of the best memories of childhood are napping on the front porch swing at my grandmother's with an old dog right beside me.
  21. Right there with you. Having followed the Dodgers since the days of Koufax, Drysdale, Podres, Regan, I am ready to end this 32 year drought. Still shaking my head over that game 4 outcome, but very glad they rebounded in game 5.
  22. FIFY I live for Mondays when the Fake Jerrah comes on the Ticket with a snoot full of john barleycorn and adds his commentary in genuine frontier gibberish.
  23. So, inquiring minds want to know if you comforted him with a bowl of turtle soup?😀
  24. What a combo these two make! Thanks for taking us on your adventure allowing us to share the trip vicariously through the pictures. Hope Kev gets to give a big wet kiss to your next newborn and that your family finds peace and serenity in NC.
