  1. RIP Tom Sizemore. One of the great character actors. Absolutely dynamite in Heat and True Romance. Loved him in later years appearance in the remake of Hawaii Five-0.
  2. I don't remember a single thing about The Mandalorian aside from the 2 episodes that Bill Burr appears in. I've seen every episode.
  3. The cord has been cut. For 38 years I've walked this earth and I've done it with premium cable/satellite for all of them(minus the years I spent in the dorms at UB.) As of tomorrow, that all ends. Reminds me of the old Jim Gaffigan bit: "no cable? Where do you send your $500 bucks a month?!"
  4. I've worked with Bally for many, many years. I'm never surprised when I call their service line and they have changed company names again. It's happened 4 times in the past 5 years. Gotta move that money around...
  5. It is 67 degrees on February 15th at 900 feet in the middle of the Poconos.
  6. This winter sucks horribly. It never snows in the Poconos as it is, but this is ridiculous. We're under 10 inches on the season. We average 68 inches. We can't even make snow on the mountains because it's 50 degrees everyday. Awful. Just awful.
  7. Boooo on puck sensors. Gimme the radar gun and instant reads.
  8. We Own This City on HBO is pretty darn good. It's a 6 episode miniseries dramatization of the 2017 rico case against the Baltimore PD's Gun Trace Taskforce. It's written by David Simon, who also wrote The Wire. Jon Bernthal plays one of the main cops and he's just great. His Baltimore accent is right on and hilarious. Gritty show. If you liked The Wire, take 3 days and give it a watch. Up next is Tulsa King.
  9. The major schools need to get it together with their payments to players. We need more competitive teams. USC, FSU, Texas, Florida, Oklahoma, hell, when I was a kid Nebraska was a juggernaut! Otherwise it's going to continue to be Georgia and Alabama every year. Maybe sprinkle in a Clemson every now and then. Let's go, it's legal to pay players now! Somebody call Pete Carroll and ask him what to do!
  10. I think that Ken Dorsey is not good. I also think this about Frazier.
  11. My hot water heater blew last night while I was at work. Why isn't this in the complaint thread? Because my neighbor came over today, went with me to the hardware store, helped me pick out a new one, let me use his military discount, threw it on his truck, brought it down and installed it for me over about 2 and a half hours tonight. I could have never done this job on my own. I simply don't have the know how. But I do now! If I'd have had the plumber come out to do this job it would have cost me 2 grand. This cost me $600 for the new tank. I tried to pay my neighbor $300 for helping me out and he flat out refused. Some people are just awesome. Now I'm getting him and his wife a gift card to a pretty nice restaurant in town and I'm not letting him refuse me this time. Good people are just plain awesome.
  12. Took one my dogs to the No Appointment Necessary Clinic today to get his shots updated. The line was 95 people and 65 dogs deep. ***** that! I'll make an appointment with his Vet for tomorrow, pay $45 more dollars and save my *****in sanity. $100 to wait in line for 2 and a half hours? No way!
  13. Waiter ***** ya. But your friend is absolutely also at fault. You don't joke with the waiter. You order from the waiter. And the waiter clearly ***** you over, so you stiffed the waiter. It's a fair play.
  14. Let's go boys. We're wearing black. He have to score 6 tonight.
  15. Welcome to January skiing in the Northeast. It's a thing and it has been for all 35 years I've been skiing. There are good days and bad days. February is the most consistent, but to be honest, March is the best ski month.
  16. So, who will be replacing Austria in next year's tourney? Wowsers!
  17. Why don't we call it the Czech Republic anymore? Czechia hits the ear wrong.
  18. 8 pm. Time for round 2.
  19. Merry Christmas, movie house! Merry Christmas, Emporium! Merry Christmas, you wonderful old Building & Loan!
