  1. Since there are clearly no comedy movies in the past decade that are quotable and few even memorable, television shows is all we have. Although, I loved Derry Girls, I can't think of any memorable quotes. I am more likely to imitate Nandor than drop a memorable quote. Reservation Dogs - skoden Ted Lasso - whistle, . . . WHISTLE
  2. Asking if anyone knows about charter buses seems like a pretty reasonable question to me.
  3. I happily support PBS with a small monthly donation. I regularly watch many shows and have since I was old enough to watch TV. My understanding is that PBS only gets about 15% of its funding from CPB. The quality of PBS shows could easily generate enough revenue to make up the difference. I didn't support the current president, I stay out of CR, and I'm not a fascist nut job. I am okay, though, with PBS finding private ways of supporting its programming which it already does in large part.
  4. I've been twice. Once on opening weekend and once about a month later. The concept of Cajun influenced barbecue is good and Holden is a seasoned pit master, having spent years at InterStellar. I definitely recommend it. If its available, the crawfish dressing is a must.
  5. I've been to 2M three times, albeit between 2017-2020, all great. I've been to Reese Bros. twice, both times overall better than 2M.

    First time I saw Flaco was with the Mavericks -

    Flaco Gone.

    I've seen him a few times over the years and every time he stole the show. En vivo, no mas.
  8. Amusement ride induced Tourette's.
  9. Its different in every family, but just asking the other siblings for assistance might be beneficial. With my mom, I was the closest and had the most interaction over the last couple years. Once it was determined that mom was not capable of going to doctors appointment alone or dealing with finances, I had to step in. My sister is an hour and a half away, so it was easier for me to take a few hours for a doctors appointment. When something happened in the middle of the night, I was the one to head over to mom's. There were things that she could do from a distance, though. When we needed to research hospice and care homes, she ran point. When mom was in the hospital various times, my sister would come up and spend the night with her. She was the contact for care home administrators, hospice people, social workers, etc. If something wasn't going right in those areas, she'd make the call - she has a knack for getting cell phone numbers and always had a direct line. I spend more time dealing with mom and her affairs, but my sister was great and extremely helpful to me and my mom. For those going through these issues now or will be going through them soon, I suggest trying to find roles for more than just one person. All of the financial stuff can be done online now, many medical things are online as well. My heart goes out to those going through the struggle of assisting aging parents.
  10. I picked up a pair of these Costa Reefton Pro glasses a couple weeks ago. I have several pairs of Costas over the years and still have three pairs in addition to these. The little groves on the nose piece really helped them not fog up while wearing a balaclava. The 580 glass lenses are great for fishing inshore.
  11. Worst I've encountered: Mom, Dad, two middle school aged children, grandma, and grandpa. Every time I turned down an aisle, there they were. Saw them in the parking lot headed to the car after the family shopping spree - two fucking bags of groceries.
  12. Without a doubt a Northern Cottonmouth.

    The nice thing about it is that out of the remaining 12 matches, only Seattle and LAFC are ahead of us in the table and both of those games are at Q2. We are sitting at 7th right now with at least a game in hand against everyone buy LAFC.
  14. Unless you're talking about a new vehicle that requires titling, you can do it online with no issues. All you need is the license plate number and last 4 of the vin.
  15. Everyone knows that you go to Goober for auto repair.
  16. I chose Shake Shack over Cooper's BBQ every time. I could also find many places better than Shake Shack.
  17. I bet they're not certified, though.
  18. I played the cornet in 6th and 7th grade, so this hit close to my childhood home.

    Love Dani selling that pump fake.
  20. So much more exciting than the usual Paris finish. I like that they locked the GC standings. I love that Tadej just wanted to race.
  21. What a jump by WvA.
  22. Guess who watched the first episode without me.
  23. Descending these wet hills is scary as shit. Waiting for chaos in the peloton.
