  1. PowerPop anyone?? A blast from past... Some Material Issue anyone, circa 1991... Both clock in @ just a smidge under 3:00... Don't care what YouTubey says! 😏😏
  2. What came first? The chicken πŸ” or the egg πŸ₯šπŸ€”? I think they already turned a light-hearted, off-the-cuff thread into a political comment. πŸ˜‰ πŸ˜‰ 😜
  3. How is this thread NOT locked and archived after almost 2 years. Gug must have some real pull with house management! Free my: "Life on the Locks" thread... I have some valuable info to add. πŸ˜†πŸ€£
  4. Toons are fun! I remember one time we were out tooning around on friend's (neighbor) family's boat on the Kalamazoo River in Saugatuck, Michigan... I told my neighbor, don't drift out of the channel. What does he do? Drifts out of the channel! And got that SOB stuck on a sandbar. What a mutha was it to get free! Not exactly Suez Ever Given stuck... But it ranked up there! My neighbor, guy like @BringBackFergy... Always joking around, never listening to his local USACE government offical. πŸ™„ "Blah, blah blah... I know where the darn channel is! Blah blah blah!" OKay, wise guy, start digging! Incredible wasn't it! /smdh... AND she had the lack of shame to even post that!
  5. I say I can't blame the bear. Get sprayed in face with pepper 🌢 spray... You'd tear the joint up to. Like flipping cars in downtown Portland!
  6. Gee, the video started like: And ended with: Could we get a mash-up????
  7. I double-dog dare you! Every one loved "Rainbows, Locks, & Barges!"... As much as breakfast sammiches!
  8. 55 cans of beer. Just get a big cooler. @Beerball's are SOO obsolete. For only 400 bucks you can get a 65qt. YETI, it will hold your sammiches too and ice for 10 days... AND you'll look super cool unlike those old ancient @Beerball's that just make you look like an alcoholic... πŸ˜† Earlier... Before my time, but I heard stories that you were allowed to bring small kegs into The Rockpile. INTO the stadium. Now Rich, winter parka could easily conceal at least a 6-pack if not more...
  9. Eggamuffin: But, I don't eat them for breakfast... Too early, that's stupid.
  10. πŸ˜†... It must have been down in Peoria. Or on the Wabash... Peoria is nowhere near the state border...
  11. Interesting... Expand. Were they talking about how Illinois pushed the Wisconsin border up north where it is today because of the Chicago Portage, etc...? I think that dispute was settled in Congress. Nathaniel Pope got Congress to move the border up north. It should have been further south per NW Ordinance, inline w/Indiana... The northern border with Wisconsin Territory (WI wouldn't be a state for another 20 years) enabled the Chicago Portage and mineral rights in the Galena Territory to fall under Illinois control... Along with the canal that brought Chicago to prominence. Quite a shrewd move...
  12. Who's got $$$$$ to do such bougie things? πŸ˜†πŸ€£πŸ˜‚ Things are really gonna suck when it opens up. Who wants to deal with a sea of humanity? /smh https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/style/introverts-are-dreading-a-return-to-the-noise-crowds-and-small-talk-of-normal-life/2021/04/09/386006b0-987b-11eb-b28d-bfa7bb5cb2a5_story.html?outputType=amp
  13. https://weather.com/science/nature/video/moms-everywhere-will-relate-to-this-bear?pl=pl-the-latest YouTube version:
  14. Try and tell @Gugny this...I don't think he gets the concept. πŸ˜†πŸ€£ Hey Buddy, you listening? Of course not, you're sleeping... πŸ˜πŸ˜†πŸ˜… Carry on.
  15. Catch up on your sleep? πŸ˜† They already have whitefish... Will get confusing with the L.Superior variety. πŸ˜‰ OH, wait... That's the point!
  16. I agree with this... But it makes me feel creepy. We all know why we should be vaxxed. Shouldn't have to be about telling people. Just roll up your freaking sleeve! https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2021/04/10/health/vaccine-hesitant-how-to-talk-wellness/index.html "When they hear that you chose to vaccinate, they'll consider it because you're part of their social circle," Pan said. "That becomes the social norm for your immediate social circle."
  17. "The reason comes from a quirk of British parliamentary law that decrees that a man married to a reigning queen is referred to as a β€œprince consort” rather than king. In British royalty, the only way to become king is to inherit the title."
  18. OR: The vaxx pushed then over the edge. Look... Everyone is walking through life on the edge of the cliff. Cliff is death. How close you are to that cliff depends on many things. Things that you have control over, things you don't have control over. Covid-19 is the wind. So can the vaxx be. A vaxx will always be the wind, it can't be anything else. If either blow you off the cliff, you died from the fall. In a lot of people the vaxx blows them farther from the cliff. There is a harm rate with any vaxx. Maybe this one blew them over the edge... Because (unbeknownst to them) they were walking so damn close. The vaxx definitely contributed. It's the risk we all take.
  19. Yeah it does. Maybe wrong word is disease. My brother had Covid. Wrecked his kidneys. Then his heart gave out. Kidneys will force the heart. I ain't a doctor, nurse. But you code two ways. Lungs or heart. Kidneys definitely will make heart give out.
  20. Why? What's the harm rate? 1 in 100,000? That's pretty decent odds considering people play the lottery to hit it big? Even 1 in a 1,000,000 ain't bad. Maybe Limeaid's wife's staff member was that 1 in a million?
