Just now, Wulaw Horn said:
You guys just aren’t very good. I think probably the worst AL tram to make the playoffs. That’s not shit talking or a slight- it’s not like anyone had y’all at good odds to be up 2-1 in the ALCS, and it’s not like management made any big moves before the season, or went all in at the trade deadline, on the belief that you guys were a legit contender.
The thing I don’t know about your guys is- is this a team poised to be really good in the future? Or is it just biding time and bouncing around?
I’m not a Boston fan but I don’t have anything against y’all either- if the AL East is binary between you and the Yanks I will always root for y’all.
what is the prognosis? What’s the future look like for y’all?Solid core. Need to develop internal talent like we did before. Good trades, but lost part of the old team. Betts, JBJ, etc.
We should not have been in the ALCS. But we found a way. Bats went quiet at the wrong time and I think someone fucked with Jobu's rum. Middle relief would be nice, and our closer just sucked at the end of the year so could not rely on him.
Fuck the Yankees.

Red Sox are out. UT is mediocre. Chelsea top of the table.
I need this.

This was a damn good run. Sure I wanted it all, but it was more than expected.
Woke up this AM and first thought was what do we need? Good point about having Sale and Evo for the whole year. But I think we need to get 1 more starter.
Fuck it, bring on 2022. Will be expecting the thread and in on page one. Go Sox.
I think I am going to slam a beer and listen to Tessie.

Good series and great win Astros. Your bats are solid, your pitching is damn good, and I hope you can hold the team together and run for a bit. It was fun watching it with this group and I appreciate everyone's baseball knowledge and love of the game.
Was able to watch it at my local bar with some very cool fans who knew their shit.
Go get em. I will be rooting for the Astros to take it all.

okay, so they had good intentions and maybe weren't just trying to convert...but who the FUCK takes kids including an 8 MONTH OLD BABY into a place like that?? stupid fucking naive people. damn.
Seen it a lot. Central America, Afghanistan, you name it. A- Husband or wife get a job. Partner wants to go. Kid cannot stay alone, whatever, always a reason. I have seen three year olds on reconstruction sites after the 1986 earthquake. Place was a mess. Disease, little water, but we thought little jimmy would learn so much.
The issue is not so much taking kids to these areas. It is that they do not think they need to prepare a security operation, keep it quiet, etc. Nah, they want to sing Kumbaya on the plane and tell everyone exactly what they are doing. They announce it on Facebook. Now they are giving the other groups, and there are a lot in Haiti, inspiration to do the same. If for any reason the media attention in the international world. If we pay up, more get kidnapped. And really? How ya going to build an orphanage while carrying my 8 month old?
I feel the same way about people who want to do adventure tours into places like Mali on their own. Something goes wrong why should embassy security personnel risk their asses for you? They have jobs and take them away from that puts the entire mission at risk.
And to be honest. I wanted to take my son to Kabul when he was 12 for a two day trip. I had a very secure compound on the back of the airport so did not even have to go to the main roads. Damn good security personnel, etc. He would have had a blast. He knew all our expat security team since they stayed at our house in Dubai when they transited through for leave. Still with that set up I never did. One reason that stuck in my brain was I would never be able to focus on the two day meetings and we were never leaving the compound.

Article is worth reading beyond the headline.
Based on that "every hot dog takes 36 minutes off your life expectancy" article that was circulating a couple of months ago, this lady took 9.175 days off of her life for this contest.

Have the Haitian gang members converted yet?
Nah, going to be the other way around and 17 more Voodoo Zombies coming at us.

The movie is toast. Saw it was not that big of a production and no way will insurance continue to fund it. I did some work for a film group providing international support and it all came down to insurance.

What a terrible story.
On the one hand, it was an accident. On the other hand, Alec Baldwin was holding a gun when it fired and killed someone. Which means he was pointing the gun at someone and very likely pulled the trigger, thinking it was safe.
So it was an accident but it was the result of complete stupidity.
If that happened to an average person at home, not a celebrity on a movie set, wouldn’t they be charged with involuntary manslaughter?This is why I asked if he was detained. Does not look like it. Yeah I know, Hollywood.
-
So was he detained? I mean, at least for a few hours I would hope.

We should not get them. They should raise their own cash, call Erik Prince and let him go do it. Or pay the ransom. Missionairies get in trouble all the time. They do not conduct solid security assessments and believe their mission will protect them in a lot of instances. I work alongside them. Some are really good. Some believe their cult leaders and what they tell them.
Dealing with that right now about advising a group to not go into Tigray without real security. Answer I got back from the non-deploying director is their mission will be respected by all. I laughed and reminded him IED's and ambushes do not see religion.
I lived and worked in Haiti. You can move around if careful. These folks were in a bad location with what appears to be no security. Fucked up story, but it will happen again.
