  1. Brain tumors suck. You're either going to die very quickly if not found in time, or you'll last just long enough to start on your bucket list items.
  2. One of my grandfathers was Papa, but we had two cousins, that were not the oldest, that always called him Grand Pappy. Ask one of the cousins why one day, and it was because they called their own father Papa. So they did it to avoid confusion.
  3. I’ll be at one of the sister in laws, making my sausage dip that they always request, and new for them this year is an Italian cheese spread my family has made but they have never tried.
  4. FYI, if you have a Roku, under Live Channels is ESPN 8, The Ocho. On Sunday evening, starting at 6pm, you can watch the Wisconsin Auctioneers Championship, then Jelle’s Marble Runs, followed by USA Mullet Championships and finish with the USA Climbing National Championship.
  5. I was at a golf tournament one year and they had a Hole In One prize of a million dollars. Reading the fine print of how it would be paid out, you would end up getting about $12,500 a year after taxes for 30 years. The following year I was one of the coordinators for the tournament and was able to get two cars as Hole In One prizes (one each on different holes) for less than what was paid the previous year for the Million dollar prize.

  7. I know a few Ravens season ticket holders and while they appreciate Jackson the player, they do not like Jackson the person.
  8. Typically any squares I pick, it will be 2 minutes before an end of the quarter, and I'll have the numbers, then someone will score. Last year I had 9-9 and would have won the end of the 4th quarter, except the pool I was in did final score.
  9. Seeing as his family is in Cali, it may be DisneyLand for him.
  10. You probably want something life size. https://fathead.com/products/josh-allen-life-size-stand-out-official-nfl-buffalo-bills-foam-core-cutout
  11. Not the full ceremony in one video, but you can see the different awards on the NFL Youtube page... NFL - YouTube
  12. I'm at work and someone must be chopping onions nearby. We need more info on Slick Rick in the Mailroom. He's probably ecstatic being one of the few people specifically mentioned in the speech. We need a "Slick Rick in the mailroom" shirt. I picture a guy in a running pose, and instead of a football in his hand, he has letters.
  13. I have not, since through work I have access to Office 365.
  14. How about a lifetime subscription for $60? Microsoft Office Professional 2021 for Windows: Lifetime License | iDrop News
  15. I picked up my current laptop (Acer) at Costco about 7 years ago, for $500. Only two major issues with in, both in the last year. The built in Bluetooth just died one day, so off the Best Buy and I picked up a simple Bluetooth dongle for under $20. Other issues was the battery. I started noticing that battery life, which used to be 7-9 hours when new, was getting under 4 hours on a full charge. Then if I did not use it for a couple days, the battery would be just about dead. About $40 for a new battery, and I replaced it myself, now I'm back to getting over 7 hours of use before needing to plug it in. As long as MS does not shut me out if I don't upgrade, I'll keep it a few more years.
  16. It would be a tough decision. I do have in-laws that are Eagles fans so I know they would take them. But for me to go, to a game the Bills are not playing in, and thinking of the money needed for flight, rental car, and hotel, I would decline also.
  17. Fantastic Four trailer is out
  18. In my area, Syracuse, there is a program run through the Food Bank, called Food Sense. Similar concept, except it's more than just produce. And it's not a subscription, you can just buy in the months you want the package. No income requirement either, anyone can purchase. There's a pickup point a block away from my work, so it's convenient for me. Food Sense - Monthly Package and Specials
  19. I dislike that they are showing the commercials before the game. That used to be so much fun, seeing it for the first time during the game.
  20. Close, it's the second longest. Most can be measured in months, not years. Yes, I looked it up. July 2008—October 2008: Joe Jonas March 2009—April 2009: Lucas Till Fall 2009: Taylor Lautner December 2009—February 2010: John Mayer October 2010—January 2011: Jake Gyllenhaal July 2012—October 2012: Connor Kennedy November 2012—January 2013: Harry Styles February 2015—May 2016: Calvin Harris May 2016—September 2016: Tom Hiddleston May 2017—April 2023: Joe Alwyn May 2023—June 2023: Matty Healy July 2023—Right Now: Travis Kelce Taylor Swift Dating History - Taylor Swift Ex-Boyfriend History
  21. My first time watching the Super Bowl with the future in laws, was in 2015, Pats* vs Seahawks. I'd only been with my GF, now wife, about 4 months at that point. Someone kept sitting on the remote and changing the channel. No one seemed to notice but me, and it was pissing me off. But being the first time watching with them, I wasn't about to speak up. I'd have to sit there and wait until someone asked why the Hallmark channel was on instead of the game. But they made sure to watch when Katy Perry came on for halftime.
  22. It's weird watching these old games and not seeing the score and time on the screen, and all the stats, etc.
  23. Not me, it was all going on credit cards, with the hope I could get a personal, unsecured loan from my bank at a lower interest rate to pay them off.
  24. https://www.nbcphiladelphia.com/news/local/medical-jet-plane-crash-northeast-philadelphia-learjet/4095858 The Philadelphia crash was the second fatal incident in 15 months for Jet Rescue. In 2023, five crewmembers were killed when their plane overran a runway in the central Mexican state of Morelos and crashed into a hillside.
  25. There's an article out there, of a husband that got a text from his wife on the plane, that they were 20 minutes from landing, and then nothing from his repeated texts back to her.
