Thanks everyone. Good food for thought.

We do Jamboree in the Hills every year but this year my gf wants to do an actual vacation with just the 2 of us. I looked in to Hawaii since I'd love to go back there. (stationed there from 92-95) I can stay at the military hotel Hale Koa but flights are a little steep. I also looked in to some of the all inclusive stuff for Cancun and the Bahamas since it would save me all the alcohol money I'd spend in Hawaii. Just never known anyone to use one and don't know if they're all they're cracked up to be. Also considering a cruise. Did one of those in the mid 90's too and had a great time. Any other suggestions? Or experience with the above mentioned? Thanks in advance.

I agree. I still watch it and mostly enjoy it. But it's definitely not the same and after the "revenge" is over then what? Thank God we still have Floki.

So we got 2 battles this week. I can't believe the season is one episode from over already.

By default.....

Gaslamp district in old town San Diego is pretty awesome.

Hopefully it'll get cold again for you. Over 50 today and tons of rain. So Ellicotville is hating life right now.

I don't get the Romo thing. A stiff breeze and he's on IR with something broken.

Last nights was intense. Not sure how I will feel about the show moving forward after the events of the last episode.

Do we hope for a loss and possible top 10 pick? Or hope for a win and end up possibly picking in the late teens?

I thought that too, but I agree with Tom. Simply because they went out of the way to show those boots again almost after the credits. So to me it seems significant and there's been talk of them being in the show before the comic arc. And we know they don't always follow the timelines of the comic.

I'm not married anymore but have been with my gf for over 3 years and living together for almost 3. She will be late for her own funeral. No matter what happens she's always late. I'll be sitting there telling her we need to leave in an hour. She'll wait until 5 minutes before we have to leave to start getting around. After 25 years of structure in the Marines it drives me batsh*t crazy! She's never been on time for anything, no matter how important. Haha! Amen! We have the exact same problem!

I liked the episode. Agree they should've had something with the Darryl and Maggie reunion. But I like how they left off with everyone coming together and that they plan to combine forces to fight Negan. Much better finale, although mid-season, than last season. I kinda enjoyed Carl's eye socket though, haha... And I for one, loved the Spencer scene. Pretty awesome!

Holy sh**! $$$$

Who would pay for that?

I asked for advice about the Alexa in another thread. Thought my gf would be interested in it. I just flat out asked her and she said she wouldn't want one. I've thought about them, but they don't do anything that a simple google search on the phone or apple music and a Bluetooth speaker can't. But that's for me. Of course if I had a "smart home" and I could control lights and appliances with it, I might feel differently.

Of course arguably the best episode of the first half of this season is the one right before the mid season finale. Then it'll be months before it starts again. I hate the way they break these seasons up anymore.

When your offense goes 3 and out continually it doesn't bode well for any defense.

I have far from a "smart home". I think mostly for her she'll like the music aspect of it. She listens to music on her phone constantly while puttering around the house and think she'd like the phone freed up for phone things. lol.. But I think I would like the help features as I cook a lot so recipes and grocery lists added by voice as I think of things might be convenient.

I was a freshman 83-84. I listened to pretty much everything then. Michael Jackson - Thriller The Police - Syncronicity Quiet Riot - Metal Health Van Halen - 1984 Prince - Purple Rain

Does anyone here have the Amazon Echo? My girlfriend saw a commercial and seemed interested in it. I've been trying to read up and it seems I have to get Amazon Prime for it to really be any good, especially since she loves to listen to music. I have Apple Music on my phone but it doesn't work with the Echo. I'm just looking to see if it's in fact, as confusing to set up and use as what I've been seeing. I'm pretty electronically savvy but reading about it confuses me. Also asking if anyone has it and what they think. Is it worth getting?

Can.....not....wait! One of my favorite shows!

Well any of the women from last nights episode I wouldn't be too worried. They couldn't hit sh**!

Another kinda snoozer episode. But I think it'll play in to the impending war with Negan and all the other settlements.

Jesus plays a pretty prominent role in the comics. I don't see them killing him off any time soon.
