  1. We are here, some for that very reason. I don't have anything to add other than offering support for those of you in the fight. Fuck Cancer

    @Armybrat has me beat by a couple of years but, yeah, I’m old.

    He is the most singularly focused person I have ever met. Even as a 4th grader, he knew what he wanted to do and pursued it. He was a very odd duck (pun intended) but extremely smart. He never finished High School as far as I know. I haven't seen him or spoken to him since he quit school and took off to see the world.

    A couple weeks ago, 5:30 AM, the first 3 calls on my Merlin were Northern Bobwhite, Ringneck Pheasant and Wild Turkey. Pretty cool start to the day. During the winter months we put out a 50# bag of bird seed every week. Kenn Kaufman was a childhood friend of mine. IYKYK
  5. This is one of the first that I was aware was sampling. I'm an old but this really caught my ear.
  6. 2 of Witt, Garcia or India had to be out of the lineup before Devanney was going to get a chance, so he never got a chance at the MLB level. He wasn't likely to be a long term piece anyway. But Adam Frazier? Again? It's Yuniesky Betancourt all over again. ETA the best anagram for YB is Batter nine, you sucky. A Royals Revue classic
  7. IYKYK.
  8. Dammit Derka, let me post one of these once in awhile! Nah, you're doing fine. Carry on.
  9. Every Ozark walnut bowl factory has a couple. No big deal.
  10. I wanted Gage Wood. At least they didnt pick JLv Pick 28 still looms.
  11. It does contain relish bits but it used to have quite a bit more relish content than it does now. Fucking bean counters
  12. I'm gonna look for that. I don't think I've ever seen it before.
  13. It’s tomato time again at my house. Fried Spam, Kraft cheese slice and homegrowed tomato. Delicious.
  14. My 88 yr old uncle showed up today at our annual family reunion in this Crosley. He taught auto body at the local community college for 30 years and was very active in the Wichita hot rod scene.
  15. This is the bar I grew up using to build fence. The heavy end does a great job of busting limestone at the bottom of the hole and the little end does a good job tamping. We called it a rock bar. I have lost several of them over the years but my Santa Fe RR buddies always have them to give away.
  16. I thought you had to say Muledick

  18. Seems as though the IMSA team is taking cues from the Indy folks. The No. 6 Porsche Penske Motorsport 963 has been disqualified from Wednesday evening's Le Mans 24 Hours qualifying session for failing to meet the minimum weight in post-qualifying technical inspection. https://racer.com/2025/06/11/no-6-penske-porsche-disqualified-from-le-mans-qualifying-for-weight-infraction ETA: I have been a Penske fan going all the way back to Rick Mears but JFC, this is beyond stupid.

    My office mate had that done a couple of weeks ago. Sounded like a pretty simple procedure and he came back to work right after it. Hopefully yours will go as smooth. I have RA so my immune system is jacked up. The eye doc put me on a twice daily dose of antibiotics to get this under control. It seems to be working. He liked what he saw yesterday. I have a persistent cough that my rheumatologist is concerned about. I'm going to get a CT scan and pulmonary function tests done in July to see if they can rule out Rheumatoid Lung disease. I was hospitalized with pneumonia 25 years ago and grew up breathing lots of second hand smoke so I could have any number of things bothering my lungs. No need to stress about it just yet. But I still will.
  20. Wordle 1,454 6/6* ⬜⬜⬜⬜🟨 ⬜🟨⬜🟨⬜ ⬜🟨🟨🟨⬜ ⬜🟩⬜🟩🟩 ⬜🟩⬜🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 it tried to whip me but but it didn’t, quite.
  21. My daughter just finished a semester of herpetology at Texas St. She says it is a Great Plains Rat Snake. Apparently, the dark band across the nose is the telltale sign. 9 out of 10 snakes we see around here are Rat Snakes of one variety or another. Pretty safe guess whenever a snek shows itself. My best friend's wife sent me the picture and asked if it was a good snek or bad. I told her it was good so she picked it up and carried it across the road and released it in a pasture. He would have put on a hazmat suit and welding gloves before he would have touched it😄.
  22. Rat Snek?
  23. I'm 73 and still working for this very reason. There are other reasons, of course, but keeping my mind active is the primary one. My mother was afflicted with Alzheimers for that last 10 years of her life and it was horrible to watch it slowly turn her into a potted plant. Every morning I do Wordle, Quordle, Octordle, Waffle and Blossom with all of their variants before I start my workday. My job is technologically challenging and I actually look forward to going in to work. I do need to improve my nutrition habits. a lot of the dietary suggestions here seem like things I should get onboard with.
