I received 4 books for Christmas this year. Read ‘Only God Can Judge Me’ in January- it’s Jeff Perlman’s biography on Tupac and it was probably the best biography I have ever read. 464 pages.

I’m about 100 pages out from finishing ‘Secret of Secrets’ by Dan Brown. 688 pages.

Next I’ll start on the 2025 book from Douglas Preston & Lincoln Child, ‘Bad Lands’. 368 pages. I’ve read every book they have released together. They’re fun reads.

I try to take 30 minutes or so when the TV isn’t on and read a few chapters. Sometimes in the morning before work, sometimes and lunch and sometimes in the evening, depending on what’s else is going on around the house.

I’ve realized that I like to read like I like to watch TV- I’m not a binge watcher. I want to watch an episode, then move on to something else for a day or so, then come back and watch another one. I read the same way. I prefer to stretch out the enjoyment of reading instead of reading for hours at a time, then it’s over in a few days.

The Shrink Next Door was great, too

Loot
Palm Royale (S1 was good, I thought S2 fell off)
I’m 3-4 episodes into Silo, and it’s been pretty good
Black Bird
Shrinking should really be at the top- it’s better than Ted Lasso to me

I don’t know how The Morning Show has made it this long- it’s SO SLOW. Great cast, but it wasn’t that good to me

I loved S1 of Severance. S2 got weird and S3 got REAL weird. I gave up on it.

10 months ago, he went public with his diagnosis. I didn’t see how far along he was in the disease. It’s just awful.

The office has been stocking string cheese and it is still pretty awesome. I still pull it, too. :lol:

Reese's & Cinnamon Toast Crunch Cereal Bars- They're 100 calories of nothing but crap, but they are so delicious! I stopped ordering them because I was grabbing 2 at a time.

Saxx Mutli Sport Mesh are my current favorite. They go on sale a couple of times a year forn$12-15/pair. I put on a pair of my old American Eagle boxer briefs a few weeks ago, went to the store and all I could think about was my nuts sticking to my legs. I came home and threw away the AE pair.

My preference is dri-fit/polyester, but Saxx has great options in modal, too

The cancer patient sure feels like she’s about throw in the towel and ask to go on hospice and end the suffering

She’s already on hospice I think. I think It’s going to introduce a discussion on euthanasia.

Dammit Louie :wah:

I feel terrible for the dead girl. There’s no way a hospital as large at Pitt doesn’t have ASL on staff 24/7.

Not sure what to think about the prisoner- you’re not supposed to get 5 star meals in the clink. Sorry you’re not getting your vegetables. Don’t be a criminal.

The blowup about the patient with the incorrect surgery history was dumb.

Really interested in the psych patient- I hope they keep that story line top of mind.

Forgot about the baby. Glad she’s doing ok.

I’ve been seeing this all over and the mob mentality of some people is astounding. Posting names work numbers. People Commenting they are calling first thing. Even bragging about all the voices they can do and will call multiple times. Urging people to start leaving reviews.

There was a woman on the news last night wi Th the same name as one of the women ‘identified’ at the incident- she said her business has been receiving threatening and harassing phone calls and messages all day long. If you’re going to do the doxing, at least make sure you have the right person/business. :rolleyes:

Sucks because it’s being turned into a racial thing and not a territorial thing just because the woman was black. They would have done the same thing to a white, Hispanic, middle eastern, etc.

It’s disrespectful, but it’s not a racial issue.

wife wanted meatballs, and the party we were supposed to go to already had BBQ meatballs, so I decided to do mine with enchilada sauce and cream cheese. Added a couple of cans of green chiles, topped with Quesadilla cheese, green onions and black olives. Baked until cheese melted.

It’s pretty damn delicious :cheers:

expensive as frick worth every penny vs tamiflu.

That’s what I tell people, too. Got it for my daughter this year. It was about $100 after insurance and website coupon. She felt like shite and had 102 fever before. After, she was right as rain. Totally worth it
