14 year old cats very rarely get adopted from shelters. That’s just a fact. Lazy likely will be euthanized there after a week. I would just treat her like a queen for a day or two and then take her to get euthanized at the vet. At least then, she’ll have you with her rather than some stranger who doesn’t care.
Just my opinion. My step mother was on the board of directors for the Cayuga Co. SPCA for years, and I did lots of volunteer work there. I know how things really work. Good luck, Gugs. Tough decision.

The average is three generations before they piss it all away I think. There are seriously studies on that.
That’s probably true. I would feel really good, however, knowing that no one I love would ever have to worry about money ever again. I also would be thrilled to know that my children, grandkids, and great grandchildren would all be set for life. 🤷🏾♂️ -
A lot of millions. Generational wealth is pretty cool.

Bad Monkey with Vince Vaughn on AppleTV is very good. Highly recommended.

Nothing says welcome to our fair city like an addict with a box cutter! 😂
As I noted earlier, we were advised by the wife’s local people to just stay away from SF. And I have to agree with you about Miami. We got lost one time heading to the Orange Bowl. We got off at the wrong exit and we saw things we had never seen before. It felt like we were in another world entirely. That is about as frightened as I have ever been. Even in a “nice area” like South Beach I could only order by pointing at the menu. I was the only person around who spoke English. That just feels odd.
As they say, you know what the best thing about Miami is? It’s so close to the United States!
.
My wife and I went to South Beach for a vacation in 2018. We were in Little Havana walking around, and this guy came walking down the street carrying about 6 or 7 of those bungee cords with the metal S hooks on the ends.
As he approached the intersection where we were standing amongst a large group of people he started swinging them around in the air. I quickly grabbed my wife’s hand and pulled her the opposite way down the street. When he got to the group of people he just started whipping random people with the cords. People were screaming and a few guys tried to subdue him. We took off. Was one of the most terrifying things I’ve ever witnessed.-

SF is the most beautiful, yet one of the most disgusting cities I’ve ever visited. About 7 years ago, my wife and I went there for a week for a work conference. One of the nights we walked to a restaurant for dinner. It was about 6-7 blocks from our hotel right in downtown. On the way back to the hotel we got confronted by a vagrant drug addict with a box cutter demanding money.
We ran away and found a Target store and tried to hide inside. All the while the addict stood outside, face pressed against the glass window, literally drooling all over the window and screaming at us. We alerted some employees who said they were going to call the police. To our knowledge, no police ever even responded. We had to wait in there for about 45 minutes until we left the rear exit of the store and caught an Uber back to the hotel.
All politics aside, I’ve been to most major cities in the US. SF was the one in which I felt most unsafe. Miami is a close 2nd, BTW. Just gross. 🤢

I read today that the drunk driver is/was employed as CFO of a substance abuse rehab facility. Wow.
This is just such a horrible tragedy. 😢

Yup. I believe we got the early bird special for like $275 for purchasing prior to 8/1, but we have a subscription to YouTubeTV (which we like much better than DTV).

Agreed. I actually don’t think Gore is even a PS at this point. I like the story of Gore, but he plays really slow out there, and strikes me as a plodder without the power.
I think Gore would be a great PS addition.-

yeah, I eat but not what I always want to. I'm glad you live a life of privilege but not everyone lives the life you have. you don't have to look down on someone who lives on a fixed income like I have to and think it's a joke. your just sad
This response to what was clearly a joke is a little over the top. Also, who responds to an “opening day menu” thread like you did? Why even respond if you don’t have the means to make a dang plate of nachos or something? Jeez…lighten up dude! 🙄-

Definitely fall where I live now. Best weather of the year and the start of NFL football. Kids going back to school is always fun. Friday night HS football games are always a good time, and Halloween is one of my favorite holidays. I love waking up on Sunday mornings and having a coffee with my wife on the back deck before the kids wake up.

I was just commenting last night to my wife about how that pole vaulter with the giant hog could make a living on OF. 😂

FanDuel is the only one I’ve used. No problems.

Somewhat related in terms of exploration/discoveries, but I was watching an interview with Neil deGrasse Tyson yesterday and a man asked him the question (paraphrasing) “If there is life on another planet in the universe and we’ve been looking, why haven’t we found any evidence? You would think if there was we would have found some type of evidence by now.”
His response was “That would be like taking a water glass to the beach, filling it up with ocean water, and then coming to the conclusion that there are no whales in the ocean.”

Final tally ^ 6k Brought 4100 home after shopping steakhouses and 43.00 drinks by the pool 🥴
Can’t wait to try it again at the end of Sept
congrats! What were you playing? I once won 5K in one hand of Caribbean Stud in Punta Cana. Paid for almost my entire trip. I suspect you were at the hold ‘em tables though…. -

Just binged the ten episode mini-series, Maniac, on Netflix. Jonah Hill, Emma Stone and Sally Field. It’s a sci-fi series…sort of a blend of Dark Mirror and Squid Games. Jonah Hill was surprisingly good playing multiple different characters. Emma Stone was awesome. Very interesting plot. It was very good, IMO.

Try the Lucy’s. Can only get em through the mail but a much better taste. Also can get some much stronger than zyns.
have some buddies who have gotten some euro stuff which are like 50mg and they put you on a different planet lol
JFC man! My heart would implode. I’ll look into Lucy’s though. Although I think delivery of nicotine pouches to VT is currently not allowed, as I have tried to order from other websites (at half the cost of buying tins from the gas station). -

I switched to Smoky Mountain pouches. They are herbal pouches, no nicotine but has caffeine
Interesting. I might give those a shot. -
Just watched the movie The Adam Project with my wife and kids the other night. Ryan Reynolds was pretty good in it as usual, and it was a pretty enjoyable movie. As a family, we struggle to find movies that work for both my 14 year old son and my 10 year old daughter. All of us enjoyed this one. I recommend.

A coworker (about my age, a few years younger actually) is on these things... All I gotta say is he's a live wire... lol
To me it’s like having a strong cup of coffee. I’ve never been a regular smoker, but there are times in my life where I would keep a pack of Marlboros in the cabinet and it would last me 6 months. I haven’t had a cigarette in almost 5 years. I definitely used to enjoy chewing tobacco (Skoal), but haven’t done that in over 20 years. This seems to be a fairly safe alternative to both, but I still don’t think it’s good for my body.-

I’m guessing you’re a glass half full type of guy. Dude, as long as JA is out there, there is no reason to panic about this season. Bernard back. Looks like Taron has a good chance to play on Monday. Will likely be getting Milano back for mid-late December.
Josh is entitled to a bad week here and there. There still is great reason for optimism about this season. I will say that McD has to tighten up his game management. The end of the Houston game was all on him.
