"Here come those Santa Ana winds again!"

I like the Stadium in The OP, think it should stay... BUT, Devil's advocate... This in between weather blows especially when you're dragging, feeling under the weather. It's achy when it's damp. Heat is just as bad. Not sure which is worse...

Honestly... I got some normal time off... Thinking about getting tickets. It's like skiing... I don't mind the temps... Just Hate the rain... I don't wanna sit in cold rain... If they were forecasting a foot of snow, I'd have my tickets alreadt... ...Guess I will just wait till we get a little closer.. Really. I don't mind 30s, 40s... Love skiing in it... Just hate the rain.

They will still stagger to 75 wins... 😆 🤣

Irony? A raw turkey in a raw turkey thread.😉😜 Oh... Very nice recipe. ¡Muchas Gracias!

The guy that popularized jogging. Jim Fixx, died in his 50s from a heart attack: "...Granted access to his medical records and autopsy, and after interviewing his friends and family, Cooper concluded that Fixx was genetically predisposed—his father died of a heart attack at 43 after a previous one at 35, and Fixx himself had a congenitally enlarged heart—and had an unhealthy life: Fixx was a heavy smoker before beginning running at age 36, had a stressful occupation, had undergone a second divorce, and gained weight up to 214 pounds (97 kg). Medical opinion continues to uphold the link between moderate exercise and longevity. ..." The important stuff bolded. DON'T take up jogging! 😏

I didn't think that had to be code. Oven and refrigerators on GFCI... I can see oven, but refrigerator would have spoiled food with nusaince trips...

Now we're cooking with gas! 😏

Necessity is the mother of invention:

Suits and fedora IIRC... Just a little bit eccentric:

Not sure if this one I posted up thread... Fitting with the dark nights drawing in again: "...Thank God the dark nights are drawing in again 'cause high summer has got me down I'll wait till the end of August And get off this merry-go-round And they shut him out of paradise Called him Lucifer and frowned She took pride in what God made him Even before the angels shot him down to the ground He's a light out of the darkness And he wears a starry crown If you see him, nothing will shake him 'cause high summer has got him low down..."

And the flag a hunk of cloth... Can mean a million things to a million different people. Funny how people rail against group think then cry when there's not enough! They just want it their way for their story. Everyone has a story. Attention must be paid! 😕😞 I get it... The US has always been thought of as a melting pot, stirred into one common theme. How about we start looking at the nation as a mosaic. Look closely enough, you'll see the jagged cracks. Mosaics are just as awe inspiring! More so than one heaping goo with one group of people (nationalists) deciding what that goo should be themed around.

Gales of November blowing tonight! 3 Lakers, Great Republic, James R. Barker, & Wilfred Sykes anchored & riding it out between Racine & Evanston... Destination Gary/Burns/Indiana Harbor: https://www.marinetraffic.com/en/ais/home/centerx:-87.6/centery:42.6/zoom:9 Winds 40+ knots... Wave occasionally to 18' subsiding tomorrow...

Whatya trying to say... They are brainwashing youth to fight? Just raise the recruitment age to 21 so it jives with the drinking age. Better yet, make them both 25 when human brain is fully developed. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3621648/ Gotta reach them early: "The development and maturation of the prefrontal cortex occurs primarily during adolescence and is fully accomplished at the age of 25 years. The development of the prefrontal cortex is very important for complex behavioral performance, as this region of the brain helps accomplish executive brain functions."

Happy B-DAY to NG! I hope the whole Nervous Family treats you well! 🎂 🥳 🎉 🎈 🎁 🎊 🎂

If anything... Thank you, your link brought this gem of a story into my life! https://flagandcross.com/man-seeks-marriage-advice-then-ends-up-dead-after-dark-ritual-to-save-relationship-report/ Carry on!

Who sez Josh can't act! 😏 No. But I've been to a Grateful Dead show @ Rich...

Why do we even have it... When did it start? Forced patriotism, rah rah nationalistic team that is. I can see it for the Olympics and national identity... Or other more homogenous nations. Is the United States still built like that? Will the lack of a common, unifying theme really be our undoing?

More tasty 80s... [Why are some videos scrambled and can't be unscrambled by changing to another resolution? This one for me, gives me choices of lower rez, they don't work/fix...No higher rez to choose... Which usually does the trick. Enquiring minds want to know! 😏... Audio is normal...]

"...Wave your hands in the air like you don't care Glide by the people as they start to look and stare Do your dance, do your dance, do your dance quick mamma Come on baby tell me what's the word Word up everybody say..."

Little bit of a clustereff on the Calumet River... Waiting for the Friday rush-hour bridges to lift... Looks like the A.M. Anderson made it back from Spain🇪🇸... 😉... Well @ least Detroit! 😆 https://www.marinetraffic.com/en/ais/home/centerx:-87.538/centery:41.701/zoom:12 Showing the Algoma Intrepid down in Da Hood too!

WFT game....Some old timer volunteer checked mine. I put my crap on the Clear App. Kinda a joke. Antonio Brown coulda got in.

This is playing on Sirius (1st Wave) right now:

I really think these threads should open like a "Gender Reveal Party." What say ye: @SlimShady'sSpaceForce ??
