We had an actual funny aprils fool joke in my neighborhood this morning. A little back story: About 3 years ago, the local grocery store closed, and the space has been vacant ever since. There's been lots of rumors over that time about what would be going in there, with most people hoping for a Trad...

The S.F. offal dude, who went out first, choosing to not stay for last chance kitchen seems like a bit of a moron. We haven't watched the Last Chance Kitchen yet...did he really do that?

Back to the Top Of The Table! For the next couple of hours at least.

Going to be weird next season without Klopp managing Liverpool.

Anyone else watching the new season of Top Chef. Still trying to wrap my head around it being in Wisconsin this time, but they are making it work so far.

Kristen Kish is definitely a good replacement for Padma. Seems very comfortable in the hosting duties.

I'd like to see Ebey and Clingan match up.

So, we didn’t really discuss Fargo. Absolute classic. As is Lebowski. I remember the reactions to Lebowski being decidedly mixed when it was first released. I remember seeing it in the theater opening weekend, and walking out thinking it was pretty good, but not a classic like Fargo. I think its on...

Gonzaga got about as far as expected. My kid was bummed out, but considering that 6 weeks ago there was serious talk about them not even making the tournament, the Sweet 16 is a good result.

Purdue looks really good, but I still wonder what will happen if they get in a close game down the stretch.

That superstitious LSU fan is an asshole...the dude just wants to eat some popcorn!

I've bought a webcam to use with my work laptop...and it works great in Zoom, but it won't work in Teams. Any ideas? That's weird. Is this a Mac?

Just had one of those with lunch. They're good...and not so crazy big like the Honeycrisps seem to be lately.

I had the same thought when he pulled that spin move on the baseline and left the UNC defender standing there like a post.

Live by the three, die by the missed three.

And it looks to me like UConn is just gonna win every game by 20 again. Don't see anyone left being able to beat them.
