  1. Recently rented a car in Ireland....Chase Sapphire picked up the CDW saving me about $35 per day (auto insurance coverage didn't extend out of country). Note, if you need to use this be sure to call Chase and inform them of the rental. They will quickly email you a letter you need to present at the rental car counter to prove insurance.
  2. His "no reservations" Iran was brilliantly done....
  3. Hank, I’ve been meaning to talk to you about that. You should find yourself a safehouse or a relative close by. Lay low for a while, because you’re probably wanted for murder.
  4. If I were his father I would advise against this. His LT future is in baseball, not football.
  5. Rossini's at 38th and Park (Italian) Pera at Madison and 42nd (Mediterranean) Kelllari Taverna on 44th (Greek) All are reasonably priced, by NY standards
  6. It's become very common in hub markets to find the clubs not honoring the day passes.....
  7. With a couple of old people and some kids, Zion is not the location unless you just want to ride the bus up the canyon and back. DO NOT attempt Angels Landing with some olds and young kids. Repeat....DO NOT. The olds will die on the way up and the kids will probably go over the ledge - unless of course, that;s the plan. Go to Bryce Canyon.....you can walk the rim without much difficulty, the drive out to Rainbow Point is really nice.
  8. The one about the girl that borrowed a ton of money to pay her tuition, rent and get a graduation gown so she could "work with you"....makes me rage.
  9. Head to the alumni center across from the stadium....its mostly 26-29 year olds and the beer is really cheap and the food is really good. It's also not very crowded. Plenty of space to sit and relax. Oh.....also, I'm totally full of sh**.
  10. Was on a long haul flight and watched Geostorm, probably the worst movie ever made.
  11. Go to Mesa Verde...book the last tour of the day to the Long House. Your welcome.
  12. It's like the politics board but the stakes are much higher
  13. Many, many moons ago...I think it was 1975, San Antonio Roosevelt HS vs Converse Judson, ump at home plate called a balk on the Judson catcher when he faked a throw to pick off a runner on 1st.
  14. Prestige Worldwide at #65 is complete bulls**t
  15. I’m about a year away, maybe less. I’ll retire and I won’t look back. Wife and I are going to travel like maniacs until the $$ runs out...
  16. Just got back yesterday from Ireland flew in/out of Cork, IE via London. We did the regular tourista stuff in the SW... Killarny, Ring of Kerry, Dingle Peninsula, Gap of Dunloe, Killarny National Park, Cliffs of Moher, Blarney Castle, etc. It was surprisingly affordable. Weather was great. We hiked, drove the countryside, saw castles, stayed in a really great country house - easily 5 stars at a 3 star price. Our big miss was getting out to the Skelligs. We saw them but couldn't get a spot on a boat to land. The Skelligs are 7 miles offshore and were made famous by the most recent Star Wars (Luke's hangout). Its a World Heritage site and I'll be going back because its now a bucket list item for me.
  17. Well, I’m in Ireland right now and they fookin’ love us here....or they’re really into our $$.
  18. Oh man.... 2 at home with the Giants, then 4 at Cleveland, 3 at Yankees and 3 at Boston. Yikes...
