The Swamp

I wonder how much the Bolts (and all other Atlantic teams) benefit by being in a division with Detroit, Ottawa, and Buffalo.

That organization is a tire fire. The one redeeming quality is Krueger, who has management experience (in soccer). I suppose having Eichel and Dahlin is good too.

Can't tell if this is in response to DSafe or Brian. Works with both.

NonLinear, my company has groups staying at two different hotels (including a Residence Inn) in the Bay Area right now. Our client put together a two-page informational flyer on the hotel policies that each one is using ranging from employee policies about protective equipment, food, elevator use, ...

The funniest part for me is the guy doing the coaching. His look matches the type of person he should be castigating. The other funniest part is that my parents and inlaws do so many of these behaviors.

Seeing a lot of those, "you're becoming your parents" Progressive commercials. Love it.

Really enjoying Better Things. Pamela Adlon is fantastic and there are a lot of parallels between her three daughters and my three sons.

Damn, I only had 266 posts by then. Joined a month and a half prior.

Ended up with a Serta (or was it Sealy?) Firm, plush top, King size (for the price of a queen). Only needed the mattress and delivery and take away of the old one, totaled less than $1000, and was able to 0% interest it for 2 years. Delivers on Monday.

Went cheap seven years ago. Memory foam from the internet. It's horrendous now. Scoping out sleep numbers and coils this afternoon.

Fuck Scottie. He was the reason several Swampers stayed away for a long time, including me. And his verbose screeds. He follows the rule of why use 15 words to say something when you can use 50. One of the great things about this place is that it is a troll-free zone. And in truth, I find James Joy...

Thanks for reigniting my anger about Spencer, Jason, Richard, and Alex getting laid off.

Penny Vinik filed for divorce from Jeff yesterday. Could be catastrophic for the Lightning, Water Street (the $2B renovation ongoing near the arena), and Tampa in general.

The problem for a lot of restaurants in certain (most?) parts of the country is that gets too hot/cold for them to waste precious real estate on outdoor/patio seating. You can get away with it in temperate coastal regions, for the most part. Bethesda just come up with a brilliant (if pretty obvious...

Especially if you're playing against Sergio Ramos!!!

Are you just supposed to show up naked?

The press release specifically said "Obama was born in Kenya" T-shirts are still allowed.

A slow clap for each of you.

And, american cheese is the worst cheese. "American cheese" (or "Processed Cheese") is an abomination. Is this the same as cheddar? Or have we now moved to the realm of colors to describe taste (white and yellow)? And ill take the meatball sub with provolone. Is that bad too? No...

The bread almost always holds it back here. No one makes cuban bread, they just treat this like a fucking panini. When I was an undergrad in Gainesville, two guys from Tampa opened a small Cuban restaurant (just north of Burrito Bros., and in the same building as Maui Teriyaki, phxgators). They dro...

I'm gettin' the popcorn ready: https://twitter.com/Steven_Hyden/status/1270379314089988106?s=20 Hyden's book on music rivalries is pretty good.

Not really surprised by this one, unfortunately. Met with Reche a few times. I've never seen someone so calm about having to go to prison. Yeah, bummed, but not terribly surprised. Heard he'd been having issues. He was a great Gator, sorry to see him go out this way. He struck me as someone who jus...

I've now powered through the first 3 seasons of Bosch, and enjoyed it, but decided I should watch something else while I'm on my wind trainer so I don't burn out on it. I tried watching the 1st episode of 'Sucession' this morning....and does it get better? I mean...I can tell its well done, but I'm...

Generally speaking, advertising pulls out fast and subscriptions trickle away, if they leave at all in a time where reading is up. So I guess its possible they forecasted infinite linear growth and when that wasn't met, this became "necessity", but I wouldn't be surprised in the least if ...

He's complaining about the LAPD police chief, so I'd imagine some Zoom based Los Angeles municipal meeting.

Absolutely loved that movie as a kid.
