      @Elode that is what this place reminds me of.

      Oh. Things are changing I've been informed. I've been gone for months and I see the maturity level is incredible sad. That's just too bad. I missed out on everything! I'm not sad about it though :) I'm a happy girl!!! Hope you're doing swell!

      Thank you for staying, @Dub!! I'm glad you're back, @Elode!!

      Yes, it is different now, but I believe this site is what you make of it. We've been here long enough to know to take good and leave the bad behind. At least that's my thought. :)

  3. Irony........spending the last couple days shopping for a new 4K TV to take the place of a tried and true great TV in the den. Did so in hopes of getting it set up in time to watch the National Championship game on it. I even took vacation days today and tomorrow. Decided on the model....bought it.....brought it home....moved the old entertainment center out....new stuff set up. Teenage T-Rex was a hyooge help. He had me amazed at some of the 4K content he knew of on youtube...........anyway....setup and running well. Watch a movie with him and then roll into the big game. Saw kickoff.....and then woke up for the postgame interviews. DAMNITMAN !!!! Slept through it. Crap. I suck. Oh well.....thank goodness there is the DVR. My OG dog, Mollie....said she'd rewatch it with me. Watson is one hell of a QB. I'm very happy for Dabo and the Clemson Nation. Surrounded by them around here. Great day for them. Congrats.

      I was bored by the first half, so I recorded the second half and went to bed. The last half may have been the best championship game I've seen in years.

      OzRoo, you know I'm an Apple fangirl! Dub, I like you more and more :)

      @Dub and @ShelterDog64, Yes definitely an Apple fan. Love my MacBook Pro and my iPad. Finally got iMac desktop and iPhone. I was using Samsung Galaxy Note, but after recent events in the Galaxy Note phones, I switched to iPhone. Yes, everything works very well. An Apple or few a day keeps frustrations away!

  4. Gonna put this little PSA here for your benefit.....while it can provide near immediate support and restoration of function.....duct tape should not ever...ever, be used as a bandage/wrap for a sore titty. Removing that stuff was like a redneck waxing. Long story....but ouch. Damn.

      Ok, it wasn't as bad as i was picturing.

      Isn't it weird how taping up an area really helps with pain control? I have had them tape up my shoulder and my back via PT and it really does offer some support. Now I have learned that using compression garments will do the same thing.

      You know, it might have helped if you sprayed it real good with WD40 before ripping it off. One redneck fix often helps with the other. WD40 and duct tape cancel each other out, you know. ;-)

      Now that you're here, I realize you were gone for a while. Hope all is well. Christmas was so good that I was high on it for a few days. I'm near the end of Chanukah which has been pleasant; I never did like latkes anyway.

      Thank you all. The week was busy.....lots of driving and such. Everything went well....except for my singular contribution to the tribe's eats on Turkey Day. I botched the turkey I cooked. It was bad....as in not even dog food bad. Luckily my Sister absolutely kicked ass on making some family recipes of a recently departed Aunt Susan and some of both my Grandmother's recipes. Each bite brought back great memories of the good times spent in their company. It felt good being "home". The only missing was a total lack of hunting and football. The circumstances just didn't allow time for either. Planning a trip with my B-I-L to get after some ducks soon.

      Sorry for the vagueness.

       

      It's a line from a Kenny Chesney song.

       

       

      He's talking about a backwoods church revival....where they are handling snakes.

  9. Cubs won big last night. Great stuff !!!!!!

      When the 11 pm news began with no announcement and there was no screaming in the streets, I switched channels to see what was going on. Got to see the score tie at 6-6. First time I've watched baseball since around 1986 and it was great. Good Cubs!

    2. highfunctioningfatman

      highfunctioningfatman

      I usually don't have a chance to follow sports. MY sweetie likes baseball and due to her being born in Chicago and spending most of her teens in Atlanta she loves the Cubs and The Braves. Last night was the first time that I've seen her screaming at the TV and jumping up on second and sitting on the edge of the couch a second later. I had more fun watching her in amazement than I ever could have.

      ShelterDog64

      I'm not even much of a baseball fan, but I was glued to the TV last night. Way to go, Cubbies!!

       

  10. Lawd.....woke up this morning with ringing ears and pounding head. Too old to stay out late in loud places......but I know coffee....glorious coffee awaits each dawn.

      There are few musicians I'd still do that for. Neil deGrasse Tyson was a perfect 'date' last night -- lots of laughter on the spot and smiles with the morning coffee.

  11. For me....making changes always seems to be something that I struggle with. I'll see they are needed, yet I'll simply let it simmer....living knowing change is needed. I'm grateful that I've grown impatient with my old ways. October 2015 was a great step towards improving my health with the sleeve surgery. Well, I'm making damn sure that October 2016 doesn't pass without me gaining leverage over the list of remaining issues. I have appointments with various physicians and will be following through. Years of self neglect and all the sudden I want be back in the game, Coach. I'm so pissed off for allowing this to happen. That anger is gonna be useful in the year ahead. I've come a little ways, but can now see how much further I can go. Life is ready to be LIVED. The best part is ahead. So much I want to do. So much I will do.

      Mmmmm. Guess you're right @OzRoo @Dub seems angry for sure!!! Poor guy...you just need to turn that frown upside down.

    3. Dub

      Dub

      It's all good. A slow burn. Only angry at my complacency over the years.....accepting subpar health and letting the world pass me by. Motivated to get it right and never look back. I guess the hardest part was taking that first step....that's done....feeling better from getting started. The rest of the things are basically like tasks on a punchlist. Will be checking them off in short order. Happy about the improved trajectory and better direction.

      The Pirates will be in my House in November. All 50 ECU grads in Oklahoma make the trek to Tulsa every other year. Looking forward to it. It was a tough loss yesterday, but you can't cough up the ball that much and win.

  20. My Pirates won our season opener 52-7 and just beat our in state rival 33-30. Next week we see if we can finally right some wrongs and beat the SC Gamecocks. I'll be there and hopefully be better behaved than I was at the last one.

      Funny, just watched a video on th '91 season (it was highlighted in the Alumni email). Aww, the memories. I'm doing great. It is odd living in the land of 80,000 plus stadiums and I don't want to go to any of them because the average weight is 300 pounds...and the guys are even bigger. Rather stay at home, grill and chill. I'm doing fantastic though.
