  1. Someone else posted this in a similar thread. It's amazing a song written in 1965 is still relevant in 2020
  2. Hope you and Shirls are maintaining proper social distance from your son, his sons and theirs. At your age you can't be too careful. And don't even think of getting close to Spags and his Covid-carrying Jersey Shore crew.
  3. Brodie gets caught blasting Manfred and then backtracks and puts it on Jeff Wilpon. Maybe we won't have to wait until the sale to be rid of him. https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/29755297/brodie-van-wagenen-critical-rob-manfred-walkout-proposal-just-get-it
  4. LOL, I was just about to post This Is The End. I think a subliminal synapse fired when I saw your Apocalypse post so I went looking for a youtube link and when I came back to post the another synapse fired reminding me that the opening scene of Apocalypse was This Is The End. Anyway, nice call.
  5. I'm more interested in the sale of the team than the results on the field right now. My assumption is Brodie wouldn't survive a transfer of ownership.
  6. It blowed up good, it blowed up real good. Reminds me of the story of a dead whale being transported through the streets of Taiwan that spontaneously combusted. https://www.express.co.uk/news/world/1078252/sperm-whale-exploded-in-street-taiwan
  7. We recently got rid of a large entertainment center. It was probably 6 feet tall and too much for me and the family to move. Had a furniture delivery and threw the guys a few bucks to take it to the street. It was gone within an two hours - and I don't live on a busy street.
  8. I'm a fool to do your dirty work Oh yeah
  9. My mama told me, "You better shop around"
  10. For a hill men would kill, why? They do not know Stiffened wounds test there their pride
  11. Oo ee oo ah ah ting tang walla walla bing bang
  12. 1) Not sure, schedules haven't come out yet. The student body was split A-K, L-Z to keep siblings on the same daily schedule but it's a legit concern that they can't limit the interactions beyond that. The plexiglas attempts to mitigate that. Wearing masks in class came afterwards as an added precaution 2) #1 is there's half the number of students. Past that, they are supposed to wear face masks all day. Original plan was face masks when you're moving, no face masks in the classroom - but they backed off on that now it's facemasks all day - question is how well it will be enforced. There will be traffic patterns set up in the odd-shaped building and teachers monitoring traffic. To be honest, I think that's a joke and I'm putting my money on my kids in masks (and yeah I get the mask is for you not me - but personally I think it helps mitigate the risk )
  13. I'm interested in thoughts on best practices for school re-opening. I live on Long Island with two high schoolers. At a high level, our school district is doing the following. They delayed opening by three days to September 10, so still time for refactoring. Half the kids are going Monday/Thursday, the other half Tuesday/Friday, Wednesday is a full online day with normal periods/teachers but also an overflow day when here's a holiday (i.e - Columbus Day). The other remote days are asynchronous learning. Every desk will have a plexiglas barrier in the front and on the right. Face masks are required all day (except lunch which will be social distanced). A lot more detail to the plan, but that's what stuck out for me. We're sending our kids, but we opted out of the bus. Wifey and I are fortunate enough to take on that burden since we'll be working from home for the foreseeable future. I think around 10-15% of parents are opting for 100% remote learning. By contrast my company had less than 10% willing to return to the office for less than 5 days/week and the stipulation we had to wear face masks all day.
  14. Hey, we can't really be dumb, if we're just following God's Orders After all, He wrote this book here an' in the Book He says: "He made us all to be just like Him," So... If we're dumb... Then God is dumb... An' maybe even a little bit ugly on the side DUMB ALL OVER – a little ugly on the side
  15. All I wanna do is have some fun Until the sun comes up over Santa Monica Boulevard
  16. How can you laugh when you know I'm down
  17. Self-testing for COVID Pour yourself a shot of tequila, then see if you can smell it. If you can, then drink it and see if you can taste it. If you can smell and taste it, you likely don't have the virus. I tested myself six times last night and was virus free each time, thank goodness. But this morning I have a headache, which could be a symptom. So I'm back to testing myself again.
  18. Anyone knows an ant, can't Move a rubber tree plant But he's got high hopes, he's got high hopes He's got high apple pie, in the sky hopes So any time you're gettin' low 'Stead of lettin' go Just remember that ant Oops, there goes another rubber tree plant
  19. Six of one a half a dozen Black guitars and plastic blues Hide behind a wall of nothing Nothing said and nothing new Four chords that made a million
  20. I'll be happy when game day attendance is a legit concern again.
  21. I'll worry about asterisks after we win the division. But I doubt that I'll care what anyone else thinks.
  22. To me it comes down to whether you believe he opted out due to Covid concerns or not. Bruins said they weren't blind-sided and were aware of concerns before the announcement. If I gave an eff about the Bruins that would be good enough for me.
