If I see Marcel Reed run wild for a 3rd straight game on a Blake Baker defense I'm gonna toss my tv through window.
I'm with you. Been a while since I go really angry watching a sporting event. Used to be a hothead but guess the gray hairs have calmed me down a bit.
Seeing Reed run around for first downs and I'll revert back to an ugly version of myself.

People here in Little Rock are buying 600k-850k homes like they are nothing. Driving brand new 50k cars and eating out every night.
We own our home and live within our means.
What am I missing?
It's everywhere. Take quick drive north to Cabot and it's the same thing. It's just mixed with more rednecks. More in the half million dollar range but they have the brand new SUV etc.
I don't get it. I'm sure many are doing well and can afford it but others are seeing if the finance fits in their monthly budget, savings, giving, and retirement be damn.

Just prep as you would for an extended hurricane outage. We have plenty of water, we would fill the tub if we could, ive got 2 totes of dry goods and cans and a full shelf as well that we regularly eat from and restock.
This is my thinking. If something happened where grid went down for couple weeks we're ready. Nuclear/civil war stuff; no one is gonna be ready.
We have an extra small pantry we rotate food and few months of those freeze dried food buckets that I just through in the back of a closet. Gravity fed water filter (have a pond) and a small battery generator with a solar panel. You, and I have done it, think you're prepared for some crazy stuff but in reality I doubt it.
We do have a friend with lot of acres in the middle of now where that our close friends have said if it hits the fan we're going there. I'm sure by the time that came to fruition it would be too late.

So ready; haven't been to a game since 2018. Bringing daughter in law to her first game and soon to be daughter in law. Rolling from Little Rock around noon. These young ladies have no idea :lol:

We moved my MIL in almost exactly a year ago. Memories issues and very slow getting around. Turned the largest spare bedroom into her room with bed, recliner that can raise her up, tv etc.
Youngest still in college so that empty nest didn't last long
You have to get the routine down; my wife is able to take her to work one day a week and we work half days 2 other. The other 2 days we have a friend come in for couple hours to fix her lunch and hang out for little while. Night and morning routines are down and no surprises there.
Have your ducks in a row as far their medical. A UTI will show up out of no where and you'll need to know what to do.
Plan ahead for family or others to come in periodically to give ya'll time to go out, take a long weekend etc. We're lucky my wife as 3 other sisters that will fly in to let us take a vacation or weekend get away. Without that it would be real hard.

Any of you do any blind tests at home?
Couple days ago did my first one, only been drinking bourbon about 6 months so haven't developed ability to pick out all these notes, I just like it or don't. Have 15-16 bottles now :lol: and nothing over $60. Picked what I like drinking lately and did a blind. First mistake, 6 was too many for me and probably messed up rankings doing that.
The 6 were: Riff Single Barrel, Russell 10 year, 1910, Michters Rye, Michters American Whiskey, and Woodford Reserve DO.
Had an idea what the order would be and I was way off.
My results in order of preference:
1910
Michters American Whiskey
Russells 10
Michters Rye
WR DO
Riff Single Barrell
Top 2 were much better than others; and Riff was easily last which really surprised me.

No way in hell, I have to live here around these folks. It would be insufferable

. Fasting is the only thing that works for myself.
Complete game changer for myself. Had a family wedding 6 weeks ago and I looked at the pictures and was embarrassed. I'm not a big guy, some would say I didn't need to lose weight but I had let myself go and was sitting here 25lbs too heavy. I'm 52 so I couldn't think about losing a few pounds and it fall off like I could at 30.
Started 18:6 fasting and cut out sugar, that's about it. Have had a few get-togethers where I eat/drink what I want which has slowed the process but that's fine too. Down 14 pounds and it's been so easy; once past day 3-4 I don't really think about food or have the cravings. Last 3 Tuesdays I've done a 24 hour fast which has helped.
I binged some podcasts, mainly Diary of a CEO. Interviews on fasting/diet/keto are plenty and very motivating for me.
Patrick looking at meat down the middle. Great athlete with good looking swing but has a ways to go. These at bats will pay off next year
That’s enough BS for me. Sleep way more important than watching this disaster
You can’t make it up how bad this team is. There’s your starting 3rd baseman.

I’d love for Pearson to lock a position down but it didn’t happen. He’s either gonna have to be a pinch hitter/backup guy or be a Warhawk

To the original question. Had 100% conference going into this season. Yes, this season has diminished that a little, how can it not. Probably at 85% now.

Just watching fastballs for strike 3. Brutal
Prime Alba my goat
She has a few years on AD so it's close now, but at the same age its Alba and not really close

Smoke has gotten way too much hate comparing this terrible team to his tenure.
