So say we all.

I don't live in Atlanta, but I very confidently said 'Heineken' when the clue was revealed.

Yes, even if Sheridan has them written now that the writers strike is over, the actors are still on strike. But even if they settled today, it's winter in Montana for the next six months, so they probably won't be able to do much filming until next summer.

We love Cracker Barrel for breakfast on the weekend. Trick is, use their app and get on the wait list before you leave the house. You'll thank me later.

Makes me think of this old classic:

Of course!

‘Yellowstone’ Final Episodes Move to November 2024, Spinoffs ‘1944’ and ‘2024’ Ordered As expected, another year until we see the 'second half' of season 5. It was supposed to be 6 episodes, I wonder how many we will really get. I only watched one episode of '1883' and none of '1923', and I doubt I'll watch the new ones, especially if they are on a premium streaming service. Haven't really watched any of his other stuff. Watched a few episodes of the Sylvester Stallone mobster one, but once it went to Paramount+ we were done. Watched the first episode of 'Mayor of Kingstown' because Kyle Chander was in it... We'll watch the end of 'Yellowstone' to see how Sheridan wraps all this up, but then I'm done.

I think Kevin did make an offer, and the guy turned it down. It was still early and unproven when he was on the show. Yes, I always thought the comment about not wanting a camera on the door was a little out of touch - some of the sharks seem to have forgotten how 'regular people' live.

Yeah, they have stopped playing games with teams screwing with the Next Gen cars. It was huge at Pocono last year when Busch and Hamlin were both DQed out of first and second, would have been terrible for Harvick to finally win a race in his final season then have it taken away because of a rules violation. I was pulling for Blaney there at the end, so I was happy the way the race ended.

Mets won 101 games last season and Buck was voted Manager of the Year. This year was a disappointment, but it certainly wasn't all on Buck. I don't see them pushing him out. He has one year left on his contract, so 2024 may be his last season as manager. The Mets didn't change their GM. They are hiring David Stern to be their President of Baseball Operations, expected to be announced Monday. Stern and Billy Eppler, current GM, have worked together in the past, and it is expected that Eppler will remain GM working under Stern.

Yes, and that's something I've always hated - she has someone on, but spends 10 minutes reading paragraphs of material from their book, rather than spend that time actually speaking with them.

I put the game on and that was the first thing I thought!

Let's set the Wayback Machine to June 28, 1969... Been going a lot of old boxes of stuff and came across this ticket. It was the first Met game I ever attended; Dad took me a few days after my ninth birthday. Mets played (and lost to) the Pirates that night. It was also Old Timers Day at Shea, and they had a bunch of old Brooklyn Dodger, New York Giant, and Yankee players - I got to see Joe DiMaggio play. I didn't know who he was, but Dad grew up a Yankee fan in Joe's prime, and I could tell by his reaction that he was someone special.

If it's not an everyday meal, I don't see the big deal with an occasional meal if it is something the dog likes. In a prior life, we had a couple of poodles, and on holidays (Thanksgiving, Christmas, etc.) we would make up a bowl with some turkey, gravy, and such, along with some kibble for them. They didn't get it every meal.

I'm thinking that if the dog likes it, it must be good!

On the subject of checks - I write one or two a year...maybe. I stopped ordering checks years ago, and instead got a software program that writes them, and I print them on blank check stock.

We didn't need no stinkin' ejection seats in the tanker! We did carry parachutes, but realistically, there was no way to safely get out of that airplane unless it was stopped on the ground.

No, the KC-135...

I've caught a couple of episodes because I had the news on and didn't bother changing the channel when it was over while doing other stuff, but I haven't actively sought out the show to watch during the strike.

What? Over? Did you say 'over'? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no!...

One time I had a manager who said we could take 'Blue Sky' days - it's a nice day out, and you don't feel like coming in, just say so. I started working from home full time when we went into the COVID shut downs in March 2020. Before that, I would WFH occasionally, including most Fridays. That was a contract role which ended in late 2021, and I found a new, permanent position at a 'remote first' company - over half of our staff works remotely. I'm fully remote, my manager is in San Fransisco, his boss is in Denver, and our company is out of Utah. The last time I worked in an office was March 13, 2020 and I hope I never have to set foot in one for work again. Unless it is for an internal position, and company policy requires it, do not say anything to your manager - or really anyone else in your company - until you have accepted a new position and have a confirmed start date. You have nothing to gain by having your manager know you are looking for a new job. I earned an aerospace engineering degree in college, then went on to fly jets in the Air Force. Now I'm an business analyst...

All that effort only to end up in Staten Island... 😉 Make that three...I'm a sucker for anything Sorkin does, been a fan since A Few Good Men.

At least Vinny Testaverde made it to the second quarter of the season opener before rupturing his Achilles tendon...

Not very well. 15 of 28 for 104 yards, 2 INTs...

I've complained when someone scheduled a meeting when I was already booked, and they said, "That was the only time everyone was free." If you bothered to look at my calendar, you would have seen that wasn't the case. It probably was the time most convenient to them.
