  1. That's a real shit move by your neighbor.........planting a tree which will ultimately effect their neighbors lawn, without discussing with the neighbor beforehand. You could gently hammer some copper nails into the base of that tree in the eyes of darkness.......that'll remedy your situation in due time.
  2. Nah, I've been noticing it for years, but just tolerate it Last week I was probably just in a surly mood, so felt the need together it off my chest I have a few misophonia issues 😠
  3. The Tee Box is becoming unlistenable Been listening to this show for years, but the clarity of their lip smacking and gum smacking is f'ing maddening........as well as Rosengarden's over laughing Jesus
  4. Can’t believe I haven’t seen sweatshirts mentioned yet…….but likely overlooked it twice Would LOVE those…..hope they’ll come in gray with burnt orange emblem - but hell, I’d buy whatever \,,/
  5. I hope that’s what my kids and my friends say when it’s my time \,,/
  6. Given that the Tarzan scream is absolutely ridiculous and unnecessary......I still giggle every time I hear it 😆
  7. Man, I pretty much said the very same thing to everyone I care to speak to Texas basketball is the only one still out there lingering around......but it WILL happen in due time (hopefully while I'm still alive) \,,/
  8. Thank you…….I’ve always felt that I’ve been doing pretty damn good for a number of years. Reckon I was just seeking verification from others that I’m doing OK \,,/
  9. Very long time daily reader, but very rare poster Figured I’d add a little to this thread, and apologize for length of post Little boring history: fixing to turn 60 5’8, 162 lbs non-smoker but having trouble stopping dipping former quite heavy drinker, stopped cold in Jan 2014 due to pretty f’ing bad seizure (4 months rehab) - turns out had a few untreated minor ones before big one Prior surgeries: left ankle x2, left knee scope, fake left hip, fake right hip, right knee full blown, right leg open fracture tibia and fibula, right wrist/right elbow, and right shoulder that I refuse surgery on Been truly exercising for 30+/- years Exercise: used to run, but had to give it up after hips…..and told to get treadmill and start strenuous walking…..did that for 20 years but recently had to stop and move to elliptical Daily mornings during work week: 40 woodchops, 2 sets per side of straight side planks, 300 crunches, 35 mins on elliptical Every night: 30 mins of flexibility/stretching exercises No soreness I admit that I exercise mainly because I don’t want to be a fat-ass, but also because I’d guilt myself to death if I didn’t or if I even skipped a session Other than the woodchops, I can’t do much with weights (shoulder and elbow); however, I’d appreciate any feedback / suggestions about where I can improve on the aerobic side of things
  10. St. Christopher necklace that mom gave me in 1971'ish (7 yrs old) Worn it 24/7, ever since
  11. Not sure if anyone heard one of the weekend shows replay the firework blast at Globe Life Park on Thur or Sat It was hilarious how loud it was inside the stadium……sounded like a bomb blast. I’m too stupid to find a replay, but if a smart person can find it, please post it.
  12. I very rarely complain about much, but when I have, it's amazing how quickly issues can be resolved by simply contacting (whichever is applicable): your city council rep, your state house rep, your state senate rep, your US House rep, or your US Senate rep They seem to be able to get any government agency to get shit fixed, especially when you've already first tried to work with the particular agency. The only time this failed for me was dealing with a county commissioner - living in an unincorporated area does have a downside.
  13. Anything less than Neutral Good = prick
  14. Wee-bit of a biased opinion here.......but I think he would be a wonderful fit with the Cowboys
  15. DFW left lane camper too, as long as I'm consistently passing a slew of slow movers However I'm a very courteous, sensible left lane camper If I see a vehicle in rearview, who's obviously going faster than me, I move over well in advance and allow them to pass.......then move back to the left and carry-on Too many slow driving dicks playing left lane cops here in FW
  16. During the first few years, the station used to hold their advertisers accountable. I had 2 instances where I called the station to let them know the companies did crappy work - and within a day or two the company contacted me to fix the problem. However now, I wouldn’t expect that the station would do a damn thing.
  17. Thanks for the education I always knew paid programming existed, but thought they had to run disclaimers here and there during the show Used to listen to Larry North on KLIF
  18. Due to the docs being local, that never dawned on me Thanks.....now I'm less pissed at the station \,,/
  19. Disappointing that they're cancelling the Saturday morning show Inside Sports Medicine (7a-8a) Lots of good inside info.....typical of The Ticket to cancel shows that aren't just grab-ass drops and jokes.
  20. True Day 1, P1.......so feel qualified for opinion Never found the Saturday Sirois show to be entertaining in the least Donny carried Sirois on Norm show Doctor show on Saturday should be 3 hours, and Tee Box should be 3 hours.....then let newbies finish the day Sirois(x2) leaving was a good thing Sorry, feel free to blast me \,,/
  21. Totally agree..... But, I do wish that during the duration of football season it should always be cloudy and 60

    Colonoscopy

    Will have my 5th colonoscopy this year (58 yoa, first one I was 44).....back then they routinely weren't recommended until you were 50'ish. My doc started mine earlier, due to my dad's history (colorectal, ignored symptoms, ended up with radiation/surgery/colostomy, survived another 20 years until it caught back up and did him in). They moved me up to every 3 years once I turned 50. Everybody, trust me, get this done....don't let it kill you due to ignorance. Pre-procedures aren't that bad.....and on the bright side, you at least feel like you've lost 10 pounds. And from what I've been told, if you get the procedures done when you're supposed to, anything they catch can be fixed, before it gets to my dads point. \,,/
