Santa needs a helper - Christmas Eve 2023
I miss those days of having It’s A Wonderful Life on a loop and putting together stuff. It helped that my kids were very appreciative for what they got even in the leanest of times. One winter before I had a family I worked at Target as a night stocker. My job was putting together bicycles and grills for displays.

Dumbass Shit We See On Facebook
As long as they put in a law that says if you get a speeding ticket or other moving violation during the ages of 16 to 25, you lose your license for a year. Not saying the premise of the original post is totally wrong either. That being said, eye tests every year after a certain age needs to be a thing... saying this as a dude of somewhat advancing age that has not set foot in a DMV in about 10 years and now cannot drive at night without lenses.

ABC -KVUE contract dispute
If you are talking about the rectangular device, I had one of those at one point. I could only get a relative handful of channels compared to what I can pick up now with the HD antenna in the attic. Had an app that helped set up optimum direction. Breeze to set up. Only thing that took effort was getting the cable run down to my cable\ethernet hub and even that was minimal. Only problem I have had was either Spectrum or ATT, for some reason, cut the cable and I had to re-run another. I discovered that early this fall when DirecTV was squabbling with NBC provider and need an alternative so I could catch Sunday night football. Like I mentioned, FOX can be a little iffy depending on the weather but that is it. tl;dr - So what if I have a HD antenna? I am old. Get the fuck off my lawn.

Digging the show and the call backs to other Coen ventures. Caught a song being sang by a group from the soundtrack to O Brother Where Art Thou.

Post a pic/gif/tweet that makes you say "very cool"
Don't undervalue the impact of Looney Tunes. From a fine arts \ music standpoint, it introduced many of us to opera, classical music, and jazz. They referenced great works in literature and movies. Undoubtedly, there were moments of out and out brain bashing but still it had its moments. And even in those most violent of displays, you would still hear different voices coming from the orchestra.

Random thoughts that don't warrant a thread
Rep for bringing up Mingus. If you want to get somewhere in a hurry throw on 'II B.S'. That song was actually featured in a Volkswagen commercial years ago. Anyways, he is the first artist I go to when I feel like listening to Jazz.

Jimi
I went to an Experience Hendrix concert in San Antonio a few years ago. I have an autographed photo and ticket stub from Billy Cox plus a pic of Hendrix in a frame hanging on my office wall. At the time I got the autographs, I asked if I could shake his hand and he obliged. I thought about not washing my hand for quite a long time.

Game Day Experience 2023
If they are going to script the experience they need to add in breaks from anything through the PA system. I.e. no DJ, no Bob Cole. I would prefer none of them at all. Admittedly it’s been about 4 years since I have been to a game and I was shocked at how much it has changed. I am an old. I have been attending CFB games for over 50 years. I will reiterate once again, that DJ and all his bullshit is unnecessary.

The whole wedding DJ vibe from that douche is an embarrassment.
