  1. Once Larry is done with HBO this year, then I am done also. Funniest show in TV history as far as I'm concerned. Been a consistent subscriber since the second year of The Sopranos. Liked GOT, didn't like the sequel much.
  2. My soundcores are great noise canceling headphones. We’ll under $200
  3. Did one because my cardiologist asked me to. Can't remember my exact score, but only one three millimeter spot, not in the LAD. Glad I did it. five minutes and cost me $140.
  4. For Normandy and Paris— use Viator.com, they offer a number of Normandy tours. Most involve taking the train to Bayeux, a nice two hour ride through the countryside. Walk the Latin Quarter, it’s lively and fun with a bunch of nice bistros, chocolatiers and shops. The Musee d’Orsay is lighter, brighter and a nicer experience than the Louvre. Takes tour on the Seine. Bayeux Parisians offers a number of price and time options. So much more. We love Paris.

    Getting old sucks

    Just signed up for Medicare and a BCBS supplement. Gettin’ old!
  6. Ticky tack bullshit foul to decide the game. Can’t stand the Eagles but that was horrible.
  7. No, but a failed Aggy QB ain’t the answer either.
  8. Jerrod Johnson as QB coach. Ugh!
  9. Pearl and Vine is ok- nothing spectacular. DaVinci’s for Italian is excellent. Very small, reservations required on the weekends. LaCenterra has Perry’s and Rouxpour. Local Table and Dish Society are nice casual places. Pho Saigon has great pho and other really good dishes.

    Below Deck

    If it's Sandy, once again I'm out.
  13. Big win tonight. Both for Silas personally and for the growth of the team.
  14. Arggh. This sucks.
  15. Offer Jay Wright whatever he would want.
  16. Jay Wright: Come out of retirement and come on down.
  17. The North and West are beautiful. Roscommon, Sligo and Donegal. Do yourself a favor and watch a short YouTube video on the roundabouts. There are many more of them in Ireland than in England.
  18. KHOU starting at 11:00 a.m.

    Below Deck

    Ditto
  20. Met him 3 years ago and he didn't look well then. Excellent drummer. RIP
  21. We’re going in October and staying in the 8th arrondissement at the Hotel Madelaine. We’ll also pay our respects at Normandy for one day of the trip.
  22. Just got back from two weeks in Venice, Florence, Tuscany and Rome. We had a fabulous time and Michelangelo's David is the most magnificent sculpture I've ever seen. Food was great, wine was great--never more than 5 euros a glass, vistas were beautiful and the people were friendly. The shopkeepers were glad to see Americans come back and we had an incredible time.

    John Clayton RIP

    Don Banks, Dr. Z, Frank Deford and John Clayton. The old guard is gone.
  24. Stewart, Fonda, Niven and Gable were all older with wives or families and all served. And then there's this from military.com: https://www.military.com/history/why-john-wayne-was-labeled-draft-dodger-during-world-war-ii.html
  25. We have different definitions of what an American icon should look like and act and represent to the world.
