Re: The Autism Thread
Love this kid. He and Max were classmates for a while. I asked him to throw out a first pitch at a class A game our org attended a few years back. He called when when he got the first pitch call from the O’s and told me he was getting “called up”!

Order for him? His bad eyesight affects his vocal chords? No, his bad eyesight doesn’t affect his vocal cords, but it surely soured his disposition. Again, something she was aware of. Like I said, this sounds like a two-way street. Even if you bend over backwards to see his point of view, there’s n...

Re: Random Thoughts About Thoughts Random
I have an eyeglass Rx and reading glasses. If I’m exhausted, my readers barely work. Basically, that guy’s eyes were shot, which obviously walled him off further than usual. Wifey didn’t help matters much at all, but then I think that was but a glimpse into a battle that’s been going on for some ti...

If you're the kind of guy who feels comfortable yelling at his wife and cussing at the top of his voice in a nice restaurant, maybe we shouldn't go to dinner together. Really upsetting dinner with "friends" last night. This is a friend of my wife's whom I love and think is amazing and swee...

Re: Television (no longer temporary)
Watched the first two episodes of Guy Ritchie’s new series The Gentlemen , on Netflix ( a spinoff from the movie of the same name). I’m enjoying it very much. Very Guy Ritchie-ish, in the crime/comedy sense. We finished this yesterday. We loved it, but weird show. I'm not familiar with Guy Ritchie,...

It's not just road traffic greatly affected. With that bridge in the water, ships now can't get to nearly any of Baltimore ports. Gonna be a huge pain in the ass with a huge financial hit.

Hopefully, it also puts to rest the idiots on social media who are screaming that this is a terrorist attack. Terrorists don't call in maydays. Terrorists don't blow up bridges at 2 am. Jesus.

Mother in law lives in Catonsville. I can’t in good conscience suggest to my wife to drive west through the city cuz the effort to run I-70 downtown died off a long time ago.

I’ve been invited to speak as a keynote speaker at a conference in St. Louis in October. I don’t think we have any Swampers there since Fritz left, but anyone with restaurant recs or suggestions for stuff to do, please share.

Watching those videos, rooting for the trucks and cars to make if off the bridge before the ship hit. Thanks for the video driving over the bridge, I was picturing something much smaller. As for the speed of the collapse, most of the videos were sped up, but still, that was crazy, but not surprisin...
