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...

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...

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,...

Because nobody has ever heard how Piano Man ends. Thanks for the warning. Gotta admire your commitment to the principle, bfj! (I'm not a fan, either, but wasn't going to poke the bears, so to speak.) He's just one of those artists I've never gotten the hype around. I'm sure my musical tastes aren't...

People have been wrong before. But not this wrong.

I was trying to get through that concert that was on last night. Woof.

Apparently, Gosling was breaking all night long. Couldn't hold it together.

Swing completely broke down for about six holes. He had no idea wheeee the ball was going on his approaches

I know it’s just a typo, but it’s funny to think about the ball going off in the wrong direction screaming WHEEEE!

Great tag by Witt also.

Adrian Belew to play King Crimson shows centered around Discipline , Beat , & Three of a Perfect Pair LPs with Tony Levin, Danny Carey & Steve Vai. Apparently the first date is Sept 17 in San Diego. Rumors it will be a substantial tour. GIMME Adrien Belew is FANTASTIC to see live. Saw him p...

You are probably more kosher than I am.

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. Amazon has an huge warehouse right by there. Amazon packages and new car shipments will be delayed for sure. L...

Ok, thanks. I'm still hammering out the days and times I will be there.

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. We have to either take the tunnel, drive downtown to 95 at OPCY, or take 95N to 695W around the city to CVille. It’d be easi...

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...

I’m good as I live on the west side of town. Scary shit. Cargo ship allegedly lost power and hit the supports.

Sean, how do we feel about Patrick Queen? I like him but not at anything eben near the price he's likely to command fwiw. the sense in baltimore was that he was really lost until Roquan arrived and then he flourished because Roquan took over the thinking and directing and freed Queen up to just flo...

I basically have run out of all the ones I'm interested in, so gave this a shot on our walk this morning. It's funny except I've never heard so many ads in a podcast before.

My buddy from way back when loves the band the Disco Biscuits. He goes to tons of their shows. Took bass lessons from their bassist online during COVID, tutors the guy's daughter in math, etc. He was given a Golden Ticket by the band for a +1 to any show they play forever. I've seen them once and h...
