Carry ons add stress, aggravation and make travel day objectively more difficult

How so? Carry on makes everything quicker and more efficient. No waiting in long lines to drop off luggage, no hoping they don’t lose it, no waiting to pick it up.

I never check a bag unless I’m going somewhere for a week or more and it makes life insanely easier IMO

Trump set the date. It wasn’t a secret to anyone that we were leaving Afghanistan

Trump set a date that was condition based. Biden changed it to a different date and removed all conditions and didn’t leave the last base open for evacuation and instead used the public airport which got overran. He fricked it up badly.

New Orleans catholic schools were sending kids on field trips to mosques 20+ years ago.

ETA: Good books tend to turn to movies in my head and I’m trying to put a voice to Donut. I already see Carl as a bare foot Henry Cavill. Maybe Reese Witherspoon for Donut?

It’s already been green lighted for a tv show and the voice actor who portrays donut (and mostly everyone else) has already been cast to do her voice


Just realized you are actually reading the books :lol: get the Audio books. It brings it to a whole new level and is the main reason the book has become so popular. The voice actor is amazing

it was her seared scallop dish that got them 2 stars. the same dish that carmy said was "better than perfect"

One course doesn't earn a star, and as someone else stated it was simply a copy of something Carmie made her years ago.

Sydney was a somewhat good chef but in all the seasons she was just a babbling stuttering idiot with anxiety. The fact the other chef who was starting a restaraunt wanted to hire her made no sense bc she had no history of being an excellent chef until she started doing whatever carmie said.

Sydney sucks. The fact they tried to make her out to be a hero was probably the worst part of the show, but again the show was still awesome.

Not to sidetrack this thread but...

I'm wanting to rent an RV and get a RV parking pass for a game and see how it goes before I commit to buying one.

What are the best spots to park an RV where I can easily attain a ticket? (dont mind spending $$$ on seatgeek or wherever f necessary)

Mike is a legit crazy person. IDK if he was always like that or it happened after his injury issues but I know many people who lived in the same neighborhood as him and the dude was nuts according to the stories I've heard.

I just finished project hail mary. Everyone says go to this next. I just don't know. The concept is out there.

Funny you mention this. I’ve never done audiobooks ever. I did project Hail Mary bc of the thread on movie board. Did it. Loved it.

Someone in that same thread mentioned DCC and to try that next.

Since then I’ve gone through all 8 audiobooks 2x. It’s def a genre that I’ve ever cared about but damn it’s good.

Just saw that. add to OP

With two ACL tears before that :lol:

He was pretty content being 3rd option behind Reeves and Luka in LA this past season. I think he's gonna be pumped to have Embiid and Jaylen Brown as elite defenders around him. He hasn't played with an elite defensive player in years. He's much better as a help defender and just shooting passing lanes and this age.
