It is for the best, hope it stays shut. I think the incident has been vetted pretty thoroughly by now, and all that is left is PPB discussion.

Yeah.

BTW, thanks for taking me down the internet wormhole with the Irish Twitter shout out. That was something.

I'm a fan of 3-Year Letterman twitter. Top tier trolling.

There is a fun little Hot 🔥 take in the QE2 thread that was posted. Damn I hope it starts a fight. I'm pretty much a bomb thrower, so I respect the post. Also I struggled with only 1 class in school. The bourgeoisie.

Yeah, I decided to post my personal experience in this thread to leave that one be --- but, my Scottish inlaws are very pro Scottish independence and hate the monarchy. They'll be up here this weekend and are in a very celebratory mood. Fully expect my father-in-law to say some things that would make many a folk clutch their pearls.

And I'm someone who thinks that the American Revolution was a mistake and we would have avoided the American Civil War if we paid the stamp and tea taxes for a few more years. And independence would have come anyway in the fullness of time. But my real problem with us declaring independence is we would have dominated The Commonwealth Games. DOMINATED.

To quote Chris Rock, “I’m not saying it’s right — but I understand.”

Being Irish is getting slapped for something your grandfather did. Long memories and bitter histories.

And I'm not an Anglophile. I don't give a whit about the monarchy. Just terrified of nationalism and believe that our particular brand of it led to the perpetuation of slavery that would have been avoided had we stayed under the commonwealth.

I posted a link in the RIP thread to a story from one of the Queen's bodyguards about an encounter she had with some American hikers. She had a delightful sense of humor.

Yeah, must be a regional thing. Around here Firehouse Subs is very popular so “drinking from a firehouse” refers to having someone blast subs at you faster than you can eat them.

Interested to know how many other universities do this. It is a non-zero number I think. Hopefully they just admit the fault and don't try to defend it. It's indefensible.

I would guess a lot, at minimum, fudge their numbers a bit. These type of lists are basically for marketing. I don't think the expect anyone to check since it's on the honor system. Plus after our peak of 3 in 98, I think they tweak the methodology more often.

But now we both know it wasn't those words.

Also I am probably the world's greatest UNO and Spades player.

With Draw 4s and Draw 2s, do you play "runs"? If not you are playing a children's game. Leave the real UNO to the men (line from Parks and Rec about perfumary).

Why do all the buildings in Vancouver look the same? It’s like they had just one architectural firm design the whole city.

Otherwise, a nice place. Hope you have time to enjoy it.

Neighbors somewhat confined to quarters as mother bear and three large cubs have taken over their yard due to fruitful apple trees...dog barked a few times then retreated.

I'm fairly certain they are supposed to get between the mother and her cubs. I don't recall where I read this, but I think bears like that.

This is exactly right. You should also feed bears so they associate humans with positive things like food and not negative things like no food.

Miami is that way. I sort of think of it as an architectural variation on the same theme in those cities. I think it's related to the fact that those are fairly new cities from a tall building perspective. Saskatoon is the exact same way although who in the hell would know that other than me?

I was pretty sure I was right. But I'm always pretty sure I'm right since I am a slightly below average white guy. I couldn't be more confident, as is standard for our people.

my wife did find herself between a mother and her two cubs (maybe three?) a month ago but she failed to serve them food. I do have nice videos of the neighbors' bears in action, have no idea how to get them from my iPhone to here since I am old and confused.

I have been through there in the last couple of months. Watched an Angels game with dozens of other people while I was there. Did get to see Ohtani pitch and hit. Trout was out. They played KC and those teams are soooooo bad that if you combined their wins they would only be up 5 on the Dodgers.

Rational political discourse is back!!!!!!! I'm sweaty!!!!!!

just got my flu shot and Covid Fancy Booster at the same time, but I think different holes were required. Essentially no tears whatsoever. Had to start a second Covid shot card, eventually those things might be as long as the Dead Sea Scrolls.

They just flipped mine over and added it to the back on mine. Next one I'll need a new card.

So, this week was annual check up week for my cats. Unfortunately, two were diagnosed with cancer. Grant, the soon to be 15 year old male, has been with me through 3 states, 2 apartments and 2 houses. He has greeted me home after an East Region semi shellacking by Villanova in 2009, Final Four wins and an NCAA title in Indy in 2010, Sweet Sixteen and Elight Eight wins in Houston en route to a 2015 title, and a Final Four appearance in the Big Easy in '22. On the football side, an exciting but ultimately a Sun Bowl loss in 2014. He will be around for a bit longer, 4-6 months is the current prognosis, but his cancer is fairly unusual: 1 in up to 30k vaccinated cats get it and it is fairly aggressive.

Mary, the most recent addition to the family, recently turned ten. Born with limited eyesight due to microopthamalia, she has been a Texan for life. She does share my allergies to mountain cedar. More of a Vandy fan she has been with me through 2 baseball titles and two runner ups, a couple NCAA basketball appearances and 3 bowl appearances. And of course two bowling titles (Hail Pinman). She is always the first to remind me when it is dinner time and loves to be pet after to aid the digestion process. Her cancer is a bit more common and current prognosis is 1-2 years.

I'm sorry to hear about this diagnosis for the two of them.

Yes same sentiments here. Losing pets stink and seems like such a gratuitous reminder that life in this form is finite. I’m sorry you’re having this tough go of it and Seemingly timed to coincide with the holidays All the best.
