Don't suppose you have any pictures you can post here?

I beg of you, for the sake of all that's holy, please confine the mentioning of John Prine to music threads!

68, outside of a few years in college and a year in Austin I've spent my entire life in the suburb of Irondequoit. Front yard is the Northern border of the United States. As Teef says, outside of sporting or cultural events it's best to avoid the city... I drive 20 miles around it rather than 4 miles through it. A friend was talking to a cop parked outside a Walmart last week. Cop said Walmart pays him to be there. If a thief is 17 or under he can't detain them, can just relieve him of the stolen merchandise and release him. This Walmart is at the southern end or Irondequoit near the city border. If I need to go to Walmart I go to Webster. They say life is worth living there. As OB says, Rochester is a great minor league sports town. Red Wings, Amerks, and Nighthawks are all mainstays. Soccer is sporadic, every few years a team appears for a while. No shortage of neighborhood bars if that's your thing. As BP12 says, we're also a great golf town. $475 will get you a season pass to all 3 county run courses. Also a good mix of semi-private and private clubs. Fairport has the best utility rates as the municipality runs their own electric. They claim Fairport Electric uses no tax money, not sure if that's true or advanced bookkeeping. Where in Ma do you currently live? My brother runs the O family farm in South Hadley (outside Holyoke, a little South of Hadley.) Anyways sorry about the breakup, good luck wherever you end up.

Looks like Doug Whaley was right

Fixed now

I guess 1997 and 2009 drunk driving convictions can be considered more mature than a 1988 cocaine suspension.

1975, Freshman year in college, someone asked the philosophy professor if he required papers to be typed. His answer stuck with me. Said you're in college now. For the rest of your life everything you do has your name on it. My expectation is that you're proud of your work. So no, I do not require papers to be typed. I simply expect that they will be.

My last two were Mom and Dad. Both made it.

Lost interest in a couple preseason games. Gave up on a couple regular season games. But always look forward to every game regardless of how meaningless they might be.

Arrested for DUI in West Virginia? Thought it was illegal to drive sober in West Virginia.

My brother and SIL live in Asheville. He's a centrist democrat, his wife makes AOC look like a conservative. Both of them admit more was done to clean up Asheville in the week following Trump's visit than in the 3 months following the Biden/Harris visit.

There isn't much that could get me to stay seated during the national anthem, not sure if this would or not. Fortunately I didn't have to make the choice.

Pretty hard to get happy after your story and this song. So sorry for your loss. This was my choice before listening to yours, never had heard it.

Any tips? I'm excellent chipper and putter, but struggle off the tee.

Meh, I'd rather have the 2 hours back. But that's me. You do you.
