  1. Europe airports are a shitshow right now. Massively understaffed, more travelers, and tons of flights cancelled very day. I leave for Croatia out of Gatwick a week from tomorrow and just hope the flight isn’t cancelled.
  2. Yup, I’ve been tempted to flip an AP and Vacheron but can’t bring myself to do it. Love them too much.
  3. I recall that. I remember it getting over $2 to the £ in Fall of 2007, back when I was paid in USD. When it came back to around $1.50, my wife kept saying it was like the whole country was having a 25% off sale.
  4. If my aunt had balls she’d be my uncle
  5. That’s insulting to first graders everywhere.
  6. I could, but I’m not sure it really matters. Wasn’t a prolonged disease, wasn’t something he was suffering with. Was here and gone in a matter of days.
  7. And his son did try to inject some humor when he said “Reach out, touch faith”
  8. Was back at the pub this afternoon, which Fletch lived immediately next door to. Heard the details of what happened and will say that the “natural causes” report is more than appropriate. it clearly was. Talked to his son Joe a bit (who lived with Fletch and mom), who was holding it together remarkably well for the moment. Lots of love and support for him there. It’s a very locals and neighborhood pub that knew Fletch and son well. Pretty sad stuff.
  9. He didn’t say you like kids getting killed. Of course you don’t. But what he is saying is that your own selfish interest over owning assault rifles is more important to you than putting in some simple, basic gun control measures.
  10. DM was my first concert ever, the 101 Tour at Astroworld.
  11. Crazy. I live a few blocks away from him in London, and he was often in one of the pubs I frequent. I didn’t know him well at all, but we’ve talked many times over the years (often about Chelsea FC), and he always loved our bulldog. He came in to the Kings Head late Tuesday afternoon and sat down next to me. We chatted for awhile and had a few pints before I had to head out. Really nice guy and he will be missed in the neighborhood.
  12. Guns don’t kill people, doors kill people.
  13. All the best and sorry to hear that. Let me know when you make it over to London to see your son, pints are on me.
  14. I knew the answer before I posted the question but wanted to see a response. The reality is the greater good is more important than one’s selfish interests. But we’re too selfish.
  15. How about why the fuck does an 18 year old, or anyone really, need an AR-15? Explain that to me….if you can. This country has lost the plot.
  16. Anyone watch Prehistoric Planet last night? Thinking about signing up for the 7-day free trial just for this.
  17. Finally got our flights and hotels booked for June. We are flying into Dubrovnik and only staying one night. I don’t want to deal with the cruise ship crowds so will pick up a car the next morning and go to Mostar for a night. The bulk of the trip will then be in Split-Vis-Hvar but may also do a day in Brac or Korcula.
  18. Well, that answered the all or nothing question 🤣🤣
  19. No shit. Went to this exhibit below at the Tate Modern on Friday night. The concept was cool but there were literally two rooms to visit and we were done in about 15 minutes. Oh well, I was happy to get back to the pub. https://www.tate.org.uk/whats-on/tate-modern/yayoi-kusama-infinity-mirror-rooms
  20. Don’t disagree with that. Amazing how backwards and flawed the US is on this issue.
  21. Question for you - if you feel that strongly about it, why don’t you just give them up now? Not trying to kick off here but I’m honestly curious what keeps one from just doing it.
  22. I get your frustration, maybe, but I can tell you it’s not a common view. This is coming from someone that lives in Central London and am around supporters of all major teams.
  23. Keep the dream alive brother. Win out and you’re in the top 4. But the refs aren’t out to get you.
  24. You’re delusional. Holding played loose and wild yesterday. Wasn’t the officials that caught Arsenal, you got beat straight up. look, you have 2 light matches left and if you win you’re set in the top 4. I’m off to the FA CuP tomorrow. Hope Chelsea gets this shit done but gonna be tough.
