wife is in Virginia tending to her mother who has had a very rough year (stroke, death of spouse, move to assisted living) and her equally impaired but still at home aunt. They are all the family she has left.
My daughter is in town from Rhode Island but is with her mother tonight I’ll see her tomorrow for a few days.
My parents moved to Arkansas my sister and brother are up there with them.
so, solo tonight. Beer is cold, music is groovy, dogs are cool. Could be worse but definitely could be better

if fears could/can learn to shoot there is potential Murray/Jokic vibes with queen. If he can’t then there will have to be a shooter next to him that probably can’t defend either. If you could only have one you take queen
which is why they should have taken queen at 7 if they felt so strongly about him (and rightly so it appears) and taken the best shooting PG in the draft next year. Que sera. I like fears but if he does wind up being tony Parker 2.0 they need shooters and they need a rim protector.
I still think herb can be a better shooter. Without a draft pick next season they are going to have to find shooters and defenders o. The current roster. Which means better coaching than we have had in the past. At least the plan should be clear with the options available and not available

when you ask Vince Gilligan how long it might be until we see a second season and find out why Carol wants an atom bomb in her driveway. “Longer than I would care for it to be,” he replies with a deep sigh, because the show takes a lot of time to get as precisely calibrated as his other shows—if not more, considering the scope of things. “It’s gonna be a while.”

Done.
Don't make me regret this.
quote:above quotes from a very good recap on the ringer today
Pluribus isn’t appointment viewing in the same sense: it’s a more contemplative, and less propulsive, sort of series. Pluribus, Sepinwall writes, has “invited more speculation than Gilligan’s other series, as viewers keep trying to read nefarious motives into the Others’ actions, even though we know they are pathologically honest.”
That’s probably a recipe for short-term disappointment. Chekhov’s nuke may be sitting outside Carol’s house, but Hitchcock’s “bomb under the table” analogy barely applies to Pluribus, which rarely lets us see something Carol can’t. Complaints about the quiet parts of Pluribus, or the pace of its plot, may stem from a misconception about what type of TV it is, but for both better and worse, it’s unquestionably a slower burn than its mystery-box brethren.

quote:perhaps explains some of the disappointment here
The sci-fi material is merely a means to an end: Like the alien system itself, it’s a mechanism for bringing about the desired conditions. Although there’s a wide range of opinions on what Pluribus is “about,” it’s crafted to be a thought-provoking character study more so than a plot-delivery device.

“I don’t think Pluribus is a mystery-box show,” Gilligan told Vulture after the finale, dispensing some wisdom he acquired while working on X-Files mythology episodes: “An ongoing mystery in a show that is indefinite versus finite, that is the hardest kind of show to do. You see that with X-Files, you see that with Lost. If you’re trying to go forever and you have an ongoing mystery—even before X-Files, I remember loving Twin Peaks and then went, Wait a minute, are we ever going to get answers for this thing?” “The lesson I learned is not how to do a better mystery-box show. The lesson I learned: Don’t do a mystery-box show. You may already know everything you need to know about Pluribus, in terms of mystery.”
