One of my co-workers is always bringing in food to work to share with everyone. I know her intentions are good, but she just can’t cook worth a darn and people feel obligated to eat her food. On Monday she brought in these Salisbury steak meatballs which sounds decent in theory. Until I saw raisins in there with the meatballs. 🤮

My wife burnt my bagel about 15 years ago and it nearly ended my marriage. I feel your pain. Seriously though, my wife is an excellent baker, but she can’t cook anything that doesn’t have a recipe and go in the crock pot. She can’t even grill a chicken breast correctly. Some of the concoctions she throws together are completely gross. The kids beg me to cook dinner. 😂

I read somewhere last night that releasing Jones would free up 5.5-6 million in cap space.

I honestly haven’t watched a “scary” horror movie since The Exorcist 3 which I consider to be one of the scariest of all time. I thought LongLegs was an awesome movie though. Yes, Nick Cage’s character was super, super creepy. I suppose the horror movies that really interest me are the ones with satanic/occult themes. Not sure why bc I’m not a religious person, but those are the ones that really captivate my interest and leave a lasting impression.

The average cumulus cloud can weigh up to a million pounds. 🤯

Woah! When we first moved to Alaska, I went to Walmart to purchase a firearm to use for protection from bears. At the time I was big into fishing and the wife and I liked to hike quite a bit. It’s a necessity to have protection from grizzly bears just in case you (last resort) needed to save your life. Bear spray doesn’t always do the trick. I asked the salesman to look at the Glock 9mm which I thought was a good choice. He laughed and said “That will be good to use to shoot yourself in the head before the grizzly starts to eat you.” 😂

There are as many molecules in a glass of water than there are glasses of water in all the world’s oceans. Got that from Neil deGrasse Tyson.

If I’m at the game actually tailgating I always bring a cooler full of choice Vermont beers to share. Hill Farmstead, Alchemist, Zero Gravity, Frost, etc. I usually make a lot of friends. 😂 If I’m home pre-gaming I usually drink vodka mixed drinks until about halftime and then switch to beer or a nice glass of wine.

There’s a reason that the Tacoma is the official vehicle of the Taliban. Great vehicle that will last forever. Even in the harshest of environments. I just bought a new vehicle last spring. I shopped around for certified used Toyota trucks. There wasn’t really much out there, and the trucks I found were WAY out of my price range. Good luck!

Prices for new and used cars are absolutely insane right now. I typically buy certified used vehicles that are ~3 years old with less than 50k miles. I find the best value there. I went to purchase a used vehicle this past March, but could only afford a 2018. It’s a one previous owner vehicle with low miles, but I was hoping for a 2021/2022 model. The prices of those cars were ridiculous.

I do. I remember it was in the gymnasium of a catholic school. They made us take two naps during the day on gym mats with no pillows or blankets and I hated it. I also remember when one of the young teachers got fired. She was singing the Def Leppard song “Pour Some Sugar on Me,” but in front of the kids sang “Pour some s@&t over my head.” Was gone the next day. 😂

My 11 year old daughter has watched this about 5 times. I tried to watch a bit but couldn’t stomach it.

I don’t have a tattoo.

First I’ve heard of Companion. I’ll have to check it out. Wow, this guy just churns out movie after movie, eh? Yeah, Barbarian was more creepy than scary to me. I thought we were going down a completely different worm hole after she found the first room in the hidden hallway. Then it turned into something that I couldn’t quite wrap my brain around. 😂 LongLegs is another one I watched recently and really enjoyed.

A couple different times. Most recently, I was driving home from work and there was an actual knife fight on the side of the road. One of the guys was stabbed and bleeding badly.

Has anyone watched the horror movie Barbarian on Netflix? I watched it last night and enjoyed it, but it wasn’t really what I expected. I’d be interested to hear others’ thoughts. I’m looking forward to seeing Weapons in the theatre.

You obviously haven’t been talking to your sister about me. Heyyoooo! JKJK 😀

How one handles one’s own meat is a personal choice. I tend to put a consistent level of effort into my meat.

My son and I stayed at the Comfort Inn & Suites in Hamburg the last time we came to a game. Decent enough hotel, relatively inexpensive, quick/easy drive to the stadium, and a pretty okay free breakfast. I’d stay there again.

I know a kid who won a state wrestling championship on a torn ACL.

Dung Beatles are my fav.

It kind of depends on where my kids end up living, tbh. I’d like to be within striking range of both of them if possible. My wife and I have talked about selling our home and buying a lake house somewhere in the northeast. Perhaps a return to the finger lakes region. I like the idea of moving south to get away from the cold and snow. We’ll see. I still have have ~20 years to work before I can retire with a full state pension/benefits. 😂

Meh. Like I said, I think it’s a decent show. Got some laughs. I watched E7 last night. Maybe the episodes are too short? I don’t know. I agree it’s kind of the same genre as Ted Lasso, but not nearly as good, IMO. I’ll continue to watch it, but it’s not something that I really look forward to. To each his/her own I suppose. 🤷🏾‍♂️

Are you gonna bark all day little doggie, or are you gonna bite? RIP Mr. Blonde. ✌️
