The Swamp

How long should I expect this to last?

You’re doomed now that you brought it up.

Most of the good players play for Harbor United.

This is a good joke.

Today’s story in the Athletic about Deion Sanders’ MLB teammates and how they viewed Deion is one of the best sports pieces I’ve read this year. Well worth seeking it out if you have a subscription.

ONLY FNZ, Ohio plates, late model white convertible Corvette. The driver looked like some guy in his 50s and the passenger was a young teenage boy.

Matt Bloom.

6’3”, 215, according to the booking sheet.

Clearly it’s the liberal TV networks that are adding the 70 pounds to his frame.

I saw Trump from about 15 feet away in 1997, and 6’3” is legit. He looked tallish.

I wake up 90 minutes before my shift starts. The first half hour is spent using the bathroom, making coffee, feeding the cat, watering my herb garden and reading on my iPad. Next 30 minutes are spent making and eating breakfast, packing my lunch, additional reading on my iPad and getting groomed for...

Next time you come back to the Land, give me a heads up and I’ll give you some recommendations on places to visit, where to eat and whatnot. And yes, Progressive Field is an outstanding place to catch a game.

I've been awake since 4 a.m. Fight me.

Not terribly current, but The Breeders were a mostly female band. The drummer was male but that’s it.

I’d also recommend introducing your daughter to Kate Bush and her wonderful voice.

Seemed too indulgent to start a new thread and too hilarious to deny the existence of this one so I have to report that starting next week I’m going to truck driving school to get my CDL A license and start a new career as an OTR trucker. (Think Lincoln Hawk minus the arm wrestling and snot-nosed b...

FYI to all Swampers: DSG and family are going to that party, so he’ll be away from the Swamp until Monday morning or so. He asked me to share this with you so folks won’t think he’s ignoring or ghosting you.

Wento a Primanti Bros up near Hagerstown a few years ago to check out the hype... Might be that a satellite location didn't do it justice, but, man... Not a fan. It was just too dry with too much starch going on. Maybe I did it wrong, I dunno. Was fully prepared to love it. Primanti’s is garbage. W...

This stage seems like it's been nuts. Huge gaps from the front to the back. HC climb in the middle with a category 1 coming before the finish. Cannot imagine trying to climb those mountains on a bike. Apparently horse steroids helps with riding a bike up a mountain. You might find some of those lyi...

The Submarine Museum in Groton is worth checking out. Some of the exhibits were hands-on, which was neat, and the demonstration of how subs have grown over the years was very cool. You can tour the USS Nautilus, which is the first nuclear-powered sub ever built, but they don’t let you see the engine...

The Cure and The Twilight Sad tonight at Amalie. Saw them in Cleveland earlier this month, and it was a fantastic show. Was probably the second-best Cure show I’ve attended. The Cure played for almost three hours, and the opening act played for 30-45 minutes. Despite his advancing years, Robert Smi...

If you decide to pick a mid-table team, I think Brentford or Brighton would be good choices (although, BHA might not be a mid-table team these days.)

A friend of mine who loves bourbon also loves Skrewball, so it might not be that bad. But I’ve never had the urge to try it.

Probably because I texted you this morning.

You're a good man, Johnnie.

Nice!

Arsenal, the official bottling company of the English Premier League.

Holy shit, SCK. Hope that doesn’t hurt.

It’s OK to admit you got hammered and fell and hit your face against the table. No one believes your wife beat you.

Get well soon!

What a game.

Ouch?

Sugar. The answer is sugar.

Congrats on the weight loss!

In. Sorry for the delay.

The Cure rules.

How bad were the fees? They were 50 percent of the ticket price for lawn seats at their upcoming show in Cleveland. $30 tickets ended up costing $45.20 each.

I'm one of the weirdos who doesn't really care about college basketball unless my alma mater is involved.

Baloney wrote: ↑Fri Mar 17, 2023 7:03 am Yep got the same email, think I'll be kicking YTTV to the curb next month.

Same here. I watch far less TV during spring and summer, so dropping this won’t be a big deal in the Sabo household.

Well holy shit. There is a greater than 90% chance I am referenced in this article. I say 90% because I would never say OMG out loud non facetiously, and I think I kept my cool until I was outside...but my buddy swears this was me. (And she looked better in person) https://www.thewrap.com/sharon-st...

Holy shit! Time to schedule another Swamp golf outing, I guess. Bring a life preserver this time, HDO.

I truly don’t understand why people get tattoos on their face.

My condolences, DiS.

So we just had a stackable GE washer & dryer installed. I did a few loads of laundry today. Yay! Question: after the load finishes washing (cold, high spin), when I open the door, I get a blast of hot air to my face. I can't help but think the guy mixed up the hose installation. What else could...
