Augie

My Dad took me to see Dirty Harry when I was maybe 11-12. I guess he wanted to see Dirty Harry, and I enjoyed the brief nudity quite a bit more than the shoot ‘em up part. Remember, I was 11-12.

The London trip did me in too…..

That went about as I expected. 😋

Sorry for the tangent, but I have a college buddy who coaches girl’s high school tennis. I have told him a thousand times to make sure he is never alone with any one of those young, hormonal tennis players. You don’t have to do anything wrong to wind up in a HORRIBLE situation.

Not at all, regarding the bold. There is no lumping together an entire gender. We live in the real world, and you have to guard against that one situation that could bite you on the arse. It just takes one to create an unfortunate situation, so there is a rule against those relationships. Plus, you are making the assumption that they are lying. What if it’s real? What if the female is the supervisor? Did you think of that? Now who is being sexist? To me this is very simple. The employer has a rule that they feel is in their best interest. You follow the employers rules, or you face the consequences. These restrictions apply to all people, in theory, not one gender or the other.

Yes! Pretty neat! Selling beer with a hole in the bottom of the cup! People were 3 beer cups deep and still had dripping. The absolute lack of urgency was annoying (I was forced to take video) but they were not properly prepared. Apparently the soccer crowd is not allowed inside with beer. They just hang out and watch on TV. Nobody picked up on the difference. One more thing to learn. But I’m glad I went.

I see what you did there! But RIP anyway. This gets younger and younger.

Umm, I’m not sure what to say! You had blotter notes???

This is fun. Carry on……..

Do you think the insurance company might catch on?

….that we know of. …..yet. 😋 I’d love to be rich, and I’d hate to be famous. Everybody you run into is going to have that moment as their perception of you. Sometimes I might have other things going on and just not be in the mood. But you’re still leaving that as their image of you that they will share with everyone given a chance.

Every big company I worked for had policies against these relationships. I’ve seen these relationships develop countless times, and someone always has to go. Regardless of whether you think you might lose a lawsuit, the employer has rules they put in place for a reason. Follow the employers rules, or pay the price, in this case both of them it appears. I’ll also caution that we probably don’t know as much as we should to be jumping to any kind of firm conclusions, IMO.

Sadly, I can’t think of an adequate way to thank them!

Nope. FAR from a ton. I was just there and roughly on their schedule. A couple hours won’t have zero difference, but it doesn’t begin to normalize things. A week, however, THAT makes a HUGE difference. I call BS on the NFL.

Oh, how I wish I hadn’t clicked. She looks closer to 600 than 60. Drugs are bad, kids! YIKES!!!

We went to the movies and bought a ticket to something lame hoping to sneak into another theater to see some flesh. They were onto us from the get go. 🤷‍♂️

I don’t think a few hours makes any difference. I am certain a week makes a difference.

YOU CAN’T MAKE ME! ok, maybe I’ll peek to see what it looked like on TV. 😋 .

I had a ground nest, and both my son and I got stung. I tried spraying multiple times in the evening, but even at 10PM they were still some out and about and I could never kill the nest. Eventually we were leaving for a trip about 5AM and I sprayed before we left. When we got back they were gone. Nasty little suckers would swarm you if you got anywhere close! I do not love all of God’s creatures equally.

The funny thing is, I don’t hate oversees games as much as I do the NFL in general right now. Those games are just one sign of the larger problem. I don’t hate wealthy people, even the SUPER wealthy, but now they are messing with the integrity of the game. That’s a fact, and it makes me care about the game a little less. I mean, if they don’t take it seriously, why should I? They stole a “home game” (it was anything but), and added another disadvantage on top of that. That tells me they don’t care.

The owners got me this time. But it is a short sighted victory, because the inequity of the entire situation is a huge black mark against the league in my book. The actual game day experience was nice, but only if you can ignore how inherently unfair it was. I don’t want to just ignore that glaring issue of putting money over the game in such an obvious way. I came away with a London experience I enjoyed, and a far lesser opinion of the NFL. That is MY bottom line. I’ll carry this with me for a long time. .

But what is bolded in black I am skeptical of.

I think it would have been FAR more fair to have us play a home game in Jacksonville. THAT is how stupid this #@%^ was. Think about that.

No, I blame Goodell. You’ll be hearing more of that from me, I’m sure. But next time you should break in the back door quietly, if need be.

I attended. Our record is absolutely miserable when I am present. On a related note, I can be bought.
