Only one name is synonymous with: "Amateur & Professional." Good thing I was out in the yard ***** -ing around with lights on the 20 freaking foot pine tree or I would have smacked that outta the park. 😉 😜

It's up to you to stop the steal! I demand a recount. Grab his cookies and see if he cheated! He couldn't have possibly got it from the eyes alone. I massively won this round! 😉

"There is no 'I' in team" Total BS! ...Because, there is a 'me' in team...

I was just gonna post this! Mending Wall BY ROBERT FROST Something there is that doesn't love a wall, That sends the frozen-ground-swell under it, And spills the upper boulders in the sun; And makes gaps even two can pass abreast. The work of hunters is another thing: I have come after them and made repair Where they have left not one stone on a stone, But they would have the rabbit out of hiding, To please the yelping dogs. The gaps I mean, No one has seen them made or heard them made, But at spring mending-time we find them there. I let my neighbor know beyond the hill; And on a day we meet to walk the line And set the wall between us once again. We keep the wall between us as we go. To each the boulders that have fallen to each. And some are loaves and some so nearly balls We have to use a spell to make them balance: ‘Stay where you are until our backs are turned!’ We wear our fingers rough with handling them. Oh, just another kind of out-door game, One on a side. It comes to little more: There where it is we do not need the wall: He is all pine and I am apple orchard. My apple trees will never get across And eat the cones under his pines, I tell him. He only says, ‘Good fences make good neighbors.’ Spring is the mischief in me, and I wonder If I could put a notion in his head: ‘Why do they make good neighbors? Isn't it Where there are cows? But here there are no cows. Before I built a wall I'd ask to know What I was walling in or walling out, And to whom I was like to give offense. Something there is that doesn't love a wall, That wants it down.’ I could say ‘Elves’ to him, But it's not elves exactly, and I'd rather He said it for himself. I see him there Bringing a stone grasped firmly by the top In each hand, like an old-stone savage armed. He moves in darkness as it seems to me, Not of woods only and the shade of trees. He will not go behind his father's saying, And he likes having thought of it so well He says again, ‘Good fences make good neighbors.’

Will always be my sentimental favorite: 1977 https://lego.brickinstructions.com/en/lego_instructions/set/404/Building_Set,_6+ Still have it! The Space Series from the late 1970s into 80's: Son has the Train collection from early 2000s... Working sets too: 😆

LEGO has always been tops with "quality of play vs. hours spent." By far, a million miles separates it and others. Our sets aren't all in mint packaging.. But used. You want to use them build, create. Not sit in a box. My sister was going to give all my nephew's sets away from 30 years ago, we took them, my Children built with them through the years... I suppose, I can separate them and redox them, but that's a huge undertaking. Right now, just in bins and bins of Rubbermaid containers... Ready to create.

I still have LEGO sets from 45 years ago.

Just look at my post count. That will explain things...

Yes. Because 19/27 (included the two fumbles as "long") plays were 2nd and long. That 4.7 is a skewed average mostly picked up on that one 44 yard 1st down play... And it was later in the game. Averages are a misleading number. Oh... And compounded with a 24 yard play out of the 8 really "good" 1st downs.

You're gonna have to give clues. That SoapBox racer is wearing a helmet, so it has kinda recent new within last 80 years, but old enough that the chinstrap was an afterthought. LoL... 1950s?

But what movie? Ugh! The Glenn Miller Story!!!!

Steve Allen died in 2000. I thought of Benny Goodman first. Forgot all about Steve Allen! My mother really liked Glenn Miller... And loved all that era's music. I mean, Cab Calloway fits. But he was a musician being an actor. Are the clues wrong?

Crap... Previous post... That's a whiff! I missed some early clues early on. Actor, playing a musician, right? NOT a musician as an actor, playing a musician. LoL... I am so confused! 😆

I hope you don't trust 1(900) numbers too. A shot from the waist up: Oh, I have some nice land to sell too: 😉 😜

Cab Calloway.

Yeah... We need some more depth at emoji! That's the BuffNews cartoonist (the one with the COVID basketball)...

Boom 💥 ! Dude, you can cut and run, but you can't hide... 😉 😜 😘 It's over Westie...

CRAP! I was gonna say Bart Giamatti! But I went Bowie!

Bowie Kuhn.

Wow! It's even in the UrbanDictionary! And it seems to be a play on: "Bye Felicia!" Bye Patricia! https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Bye Patricia Bye Patricia Go away fatty We told Maddy bye Patricia cause she's fat and not wanted around. by kaybugs123 February 24, 2015

It's a "grease" pencil! 😆... 😉 😜

Americana? Low standard?

Petula Clark! Was hawt! Hey... She wasn't in the other thread... Might as well hack away!
