What did he do that ‘risked it all?’ Accepted her hug, while awkwardly turning his head?

I’ve laid out what the story is, if you see all that and think this is acceptable married behavior god bless and good luck.


Y'all trust your spouses that little?

I've traveled a lot for business. I've traveled a lot with men I worked with and been very good friends with them. Gone to dinner, gone to the bar, even been at a pool during a conference. Did not cheat. Never even came close. It doesn't mean anything. Was she on a business trip there? Do we know if she was?

The is nothing in the photos that screams cheating. I wonder if you wouldn't trust your wives because of what you think you'd do? It's absolutely possible to be good friends with the opposite sex and not cheat.
They also do not sell merch online. You must go there and buy it or buy through resale markets. So yes, there is the "Todd at the watercooler wearing the quarter zip" but it's not nearly as common as if there were an online shop. Most of those "Todd's" are likely wearing something from Etsy. Many millions of $$$ are left on the table. But The Masters does not care. That keeps it exclusive.

A ton of other retailers put azaleas on golf things and act like it's Masters, but none of it is official Masters merch.

Other than tshirts I don’t get buying clothes online. I’d assume you’d want to see it, feel it, make sure it fits etc


You just order 5 different dresses/sweaters, whatever from Amazon, try them on and figure out which 1-2 you want that fit. You return the rest to Kohls. This is the way most women shop Amazon for clothes.

He was able to make a good living in chirpracty. He was fully certified and it takes a while to complete the program. I doubt a complete idiot could make it, but it isn't as rigorous as getting an MD or even a PT.


100% PTs have a more rigorous program associated with an actual university. They all have an undergrad degree and also their doctorate in PT. Chiropractors had a great organization lobbying for them to get their status what it is.

I've passed by LTI in Monroe. It looks grim now. I can only imagine what it was like then. It has a cool looking art deco front gate though.


It was a really good place. My great uncle was over LTI for a lot of years in the 50s-70s. Although I'm sure it didn't turn all the lives around, they made the young men who went there work and study and had athletics as well. They grew all the food they ate, raised farm animals, etc. It definitely changed a lot of lives. If some of our current misguided youth were out of their environment and made to work hard, it might change some things.

I forgot today was getaway day till the 7th. Had meetings anyway and couldn't have seen it.

This has been fun! I don't know if it's a hitting coach or a plate approach or what. But I like it!!! What it has been is unexpected!

That’s an under we all would have bet on Saturday morning.

Him stealing meds. Is not a shock to anyone in the real world. It’s one of those things that makes zero sense. Had he stolen a box of pens or ream of paper? Fired. But narcotics. Get help. That’s just the way it is. We all know it.



I'm kind of shocked by this. At my place, stealing meds gets you fired as soon as the investigation is complete. Totally not what you said everywhere.

I've known plenty people like Santos. The way she acts is a defense system to keep people far from her. It's miserable to be around those people. Whitaker is kind of a perfect foil for her. He doesn't really bat an eye at what she says to him.

BTW, Isa Briones (Santos) has a big musical theater background and made her Broadway debut as Eurydice in Hadestown a few years ago. She will be starting a stent as Connie Francis in Just in Time on April 1. I had no clue she could sing.

The show does real medical drama so well, it doesn't need a big distracting factor to reduce to Gray's Anatomy level. I hated the mass casualty event last season it suspended disbelief. There's enough interesting shite to go wrong without a cyber terror attack.


Agree with this, except I know multiple hospitals that have had cyber attacks. Things I hear about...the man that was loading cows and got messed up with the trailer and the cow...the homeless person that was high (there are TONS of these) and fell off a 10 foot retaining wall, the illegal that was hurt at work badly, the woman (true story) arrested at the hospital because she wrecked her car (high?) and killed one of her kids and put the other in the hospital. These stories happen every single day at a big trauma center. I've said it lots, but illegals and homeless are a disproportionate share of patients as are the very poor. The man having trouble getting dialysis...100% normal. There are actually homeless who use the ER as their dialysis provider. They can't be turned away. What y'all see as woke or crazy wanders into trauma centers every day all over the USA. For those that think the demographic of the criminals, homeless, and crazy at The Pitt is too white...look at the demographics of their city.

Natural disaster (a little limited with Pittsburg, but a big time earthquake episode would be legit, it’d have all the elements of seasons one and two and some new angles)


Severe blizzard/ice storm with power outages. My daughter said they had tons of patients after the ice storm in Nashville. One of her co-workers husbands was clearing a tree in their yard and had part of it fall on him. They had chain saw injuries, frostbite from homeless, electrocutions of power line workers (I know one who is a friend of many of my friends who is still in the hospital in N. La). It would definitely work for their area.

Unbelievable that you folks are pretending to be unaware of immigrants running in droves when ICE approaches. All of this discussion, and you're standing by the assumption that immigrants do not fear ICE.


IKR! Houston restaurants have had tons not show up for work when there were rumors of ICE being anywhere near. Not saying they are detaining people right and left, but there is a LOT of fear in the community of illegals about it. They won't go anywhere if they think there is a possibility ICE will be near.

I know the new courts have the host city by the scorer's table, and tiny logos for the host school/conference in the corners, but they otherwise look the same. The opening weekend games all begin to run together, at least for me.


That's their intention. It's all about the branding of the tourney and not the school. Everything has gone this way now. It's down to all the teams having the same shirts that all say "Lock it in" and have no soul of the actual school. Every sport has gone this way with branding controlled by whatever clothing manufacturer has the contract. It's the same with MLB all saying the same thing in the playoffs as well. Not allowing anything besides the color and a single logo of the school has stolen their souls and made it all look the same like it's just Nike.

Remember when someone at the school designed or at least approved it? You had variety. It's all gone with national branding.

I have dealt with nearly every governmental agency in the hospital, specifically the ER, from police to SWAT to FBI to ATF to ICE and, in the real world, none of this happens.


My daughter (no pics) who is a PT at Vandy sees it all and she doesn't work in the ED very often. The posters here don't realize that every single crazy thing that is out in the wild walks into your hospital doors and especially the ED. In fact, crazy, illegal, poor, criminals, etc are more likely to show up there because they are not going to a doctors office and they also have no insurance. Also, in spending my career in hospitals, the actual caregivers, physicians, nurses, etc. really only want to care for their patients. They mostly are not thinking anything political about them. They are just thinking of ICE, police, homelessness, illegal immigrants, etc. as barriers to the care they need to give.

Going to see just how bad it can get at Bush today.... Only E and A Security is open. No Pre or Clear available


If anything like yesterday, it's bad. The lines go down to the basement level where the tram runs. My friend was going to see her LSU daughter who is studying abroad in Ireland and got to the airport 5 hours ahead of time. She got to her gate 15 minutes before they began boarding.

2 Rodeo friends spent 4 hours in line. One made his flight with a little time to spare. One waited in line for 4 hours and then had her flight cancelled!

This has got to give. We should be rioting in DC over the stupidity of all our leaders doing this to the people. Take their pay, make them wait.
