Wait, what exactly is this text we are talking about?

It’s starting to look like an absolute bargain! 😂

It took the third season of Reacher coming out for me to realize I hadn’t watched season 2. It’s like finding a $20 bill in your pocket in college!

Please don’t be defensive, but you seem to be defensive. 😊

As much as I dislike the idea of the international games, it would be a fantastic excuse to get to see Dublin. The wife would support that whether she could join me or not.

How many convictions did that lead to?

I hope he causes someone to consider posting that Bass-O-Matic commercial. I really don’t want to see it again, I just want him to be good enough to warrant it. Who am I kidding, it makes me laugh.

I’m just praying we are due for some home runs to pop out at us.

Those back to back 2-14 years were the first two years of my marriage. My wife asked “Why do you do this to yourself?” 😂 Now she wears a shirt that says Married Into This. She’s a great sport!

Far, far, far too many……

We can have Keon take out to buy a big yellow puffy coat this summer when they are on sale. Problem solved! I’ll give him credit, he knows what he likes, and it’s NOT cold weather.

Hey now! This is a family kind of place!

“Total”? How many wives does a that entail? My parents worked with a couple who were married and divorced three times. He was leaving on a business trip and told her to be out of the house when he returned. There were two guns in the house, and she emptied both of them into him. There was a Dateline type of segment about Donna going off to prison. Charming couple. As I’ve mentioned, we had our 40th anniversary last Sunday. It’s just so hard to believe it’s been that many years.

Either that or a proctologist. Yeah, piano it is! 😊

I’m really learning to like her! 😂 .

She must have a pretty high threshold. Sounds like a keeper…….for him.

This feels a little like choosing my favorite child. (I’m not telling.)

What kind of condition is his mattress in? That might affect the degree of difficulty. 😊 We are also married 40 years as of last Sunday, and I’ve never been happier. It’s not always bliss, but I learned to be better about shutting up. It turns out she’s right about a lot of stuff. Who knew? 🤷‍♂️ .

Josh is very important, obviously, but it takes a good team to come within 3 points and some sketchy calls of the Super Bowl. I love Josh, but he can’t do it alone. Yes, we have a pretty darn good team. With a middle of the pack QB we win more than 4 games. .

Any chance he was maybe in the import/export business? 😂

News flash, the money at the bank wasn’t mine. 😊 I just wandered into retail banking to pay bills, but retail is like being the pediatrician of doctors, from what I saw many years ago. If only I knew then what I…….ugh HELLO! .

Funny, my wife just got pissed off by a bill for about $150 for our safe deposit box at the bank. She had a safe delivered to the house and we had our construction guy come and make sure nobody is going to carry this thing off. Our first jobs out of college we were both letting people into their safe deposit boxes…..a LOT! They clipped their bond coupons back then. Our passports are safe. I wish there was a pile of cash next to them for travel. 🤷‍♂️

I used to have people with $200k in the bank want a free safe deposit box. I’d have to explain to them that we had people with more than ten times that in the bank, and they pay for their safe deposit boxes. I pray that I never become one of those annoying people. 🙏

Back when I was running bank branches I had a few occasions where I took it a step further. Every once in a while you’d get a belligerent customer who would get nasty with the staff. No, you can’t yell at them and you can’t swear at them. I would not allow that. These poor people are just trying to do their jobs, but some people are pure crazy. I was told by a man who had read the Bible 23 times that I was going to hell because I couldn’t give him 5% on a 6 month CD. I don’t remember any mention of CD’s in the Bible, but maybe I missed it. 🤷‍♂️ Anyway, when a guy like that lit into the staff once too often or too harshly, I’d make arrangements to give them a Cashier’s Check for every penny they had in the bank. I would even waive the penalty for early withdrawal on the CD’s. Here’s your check, don’t come back. The look of shock on their face was absolutely priceless! It also earned points with the staff who appreciated being protected from morons.

It’s too soon to tell, and it’s harder to make an instant impact on a good team. (Despite the sentiment here, we ARE a good team.) I think we should wait a year or two before judging.
