  1. Spent the day at a camp with a bunch of dads I've met through a daddy-daughter group. Ate some GREAT food, drank some good beer and whisky, played cornhole, and sat by a fire chatting with friends I've made over the years. It's a bittersweet moment because my daughter and her friends are in their teens and slowly losing interest, and this may be one of the few times remaining that I get to hang out with these dads, but I'll power on with the dad-son group with some of the same dads.
  2. I'm lacking imagination, but my car is at 50,600 miles. What' the next significant milestone that I should be documenting?
  3. My condolences. Miami can get flattened by a class 10 hurricane and I would cheer for Mother Nature.
  4. I would like to see Marissa Tomei from the Wrestler in my bedroom.
  5. After almost 9 years in this house, my wife still can’t figure out which switch is for which light. When she gets to a bank of 2 or 3 switches, she’ll sometimes turn all of them on-off-on until she gets the light she wants and turns off the others. Almost 9 years…
  6. Impressive! But you know who else was good at numbers?
  7. Orcas attacking sailboats may become a socialized behavior, so let me say in advance, I for one, welcome our Orca overloads. Or we can train humpback whales (who already hate orcas) to fight more aggressively. https://awesomeocean.com/guest-columns/beef-orcas-humpbacks/#:~:text=In fact%2C while orcas have,cousins out of the area.
  8. Or as they said at my first job. Piss poor planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part. Yes, I work in construction.
  9. When I lived in Austin, my neighbors would run out and put anything and everything on their car whenever there was hail in the forecast. Reminds me... they had a trampoline in the back yard, and a daughter who I told myself was over 18.
  10. Oh hell yeah. As long as there aren’t any helicopters or low flying airplanes nearby.
  11. If your company name has the word “Unique”, you are hardly unique.
  12. This guy has a very punchable face. Just wish I could get in a jab before his bro' punches him out.
  13. My 9 YO came back with a teacher note yesterday saying he “made an inappropriate gesture with sausage at the lunch table”. I drilled down to the facts in a non judgmental way. He felt bad and started crying. While I was concerned that he was learning stuff like this in elementary school, deep down I wanted to say “dude, that’s not what guys do”. NTTAWWT
  14. "Don't bitch at me! The last time you did it you lost your mom!"
  15. Always wondered why "employees" take that kind of abuse and not fight back.
  16. Anything DC related has been shit. Fight me.
  17. What's a minute out of an 8 hour day? Sheesh.
  18. And they'll still vote for him, because, racism.
  19. Exactly! A classic martini is made with gin. A similar drink made with vodka is called a vodka martini, vodkatini or kangaroo (never heard the last one). https://www.diffordsguide.com/g/1121/martini/the-vodka-martini-vodkatini-or-kangaroo#:~:text=Vodka Martini%2C Vodkatini or Kangaroo I like my martinis the way Churchill prescribes: "Glance at the vermouth bottle briefly while pouring the juniper distillate freely." Bombay Sapphire shaken with ice, strained into an icy glass, garnish with 3 blue cheese stuffed olives. It's my perfect cocktail before sitting down for breakfast dinner.
  20. Did anyone tell Sierra that she can’t park there?
