You are a 75 year old retired guy. What else do you have to do with all that spare time?

We old guys are not very appealing. I've had several women in recent years threaten to jump if I came any closer (one of them being my wife).Max Baer (Jethro Bodeen) produced a movie about this song in 1976. The reason he jumped was due to grief from a homosexual encounter with an older man. Robbie Benson played Billie Joe. Leave it up to Hollywood to screw up a good song.

Watching right now with my wife. popcorn coming soon. Flick just got his tongue loose.Best Christmas movie of all-time? That's highly subjective. For me though it has to be A Christmas Story. Nostalgic plus it perfectly captures a child's emotions during the season.
Stuck? Stuck! STUUUUUUCK!!!!!!!Watching right now with my wife. popcorn coming soon. Flick just got his tongue loose.
Good morning from ATX. We've got 71°F and cloudy. Today's high projected at around 78°F. Cold front coming in Saturday night.
My laptop just upgraded to Windows 11. So far, so good.
Shopped a little for Christmas yesterday. Purchased a new Keurig K-cup coffee maker. Wife loves coffee. One cup per day is enough for me. Jury duty was an exception. Never doze off with a judge in the room. Drank 2-3 cups/day during that week.
Wishing happiness and health for all our fellow D-League members.

I just heard they are going to mess with the Super Bowl out in LA. They've already said masks will be mandatory in the stadium and they will probably restrict attendance as well. Not going to mean much to me because that's the only game I watch and mostly to see the commercials.
I have never lived in a place where you would need to ride a train but I would like to do the cross Canadian trip. My mama said I rode my first train when I was 6 months old. She took me from Clearwater to Jacksonville on the Orange Blossom Special with the Seaboard Line. I don't remember much about it.I have never been on a train (except one of those tiny amusement park ones). I have only flown 4-5 times.
Good morning folks. Heading out in a bit to catch an Amtrack train to Penn Station in Manhattan. My wife's family has their Christmas party tomorrow, and we go every few years when I'm feeling in the mood. Sometimes I feel in the mood when I say yes, then don't when it comes time to slog up the eastern seaboard to New York. But usually we manage to have a good time, and enjoy some of the Christmas trappings of that city.
I hope you all have a good weekend. Crazy to think this is the last one before Christmas.
Good morning! I had some tentative plans for the day with a friend who was going to come over and play "workshop" with me. I don't know where those plans stand now because my wife has taken off from work today to use up some time she had left over.
I was sitting here thinking about December 17th. I knew there was supposed to be something about that day but I couldn't put my finger on it. Then it hit me. It's our wedding anniversary today. It didn't actually hit me, I did call out to my wife in another room and ask her if it was and she confirmed.
I have to, I HAVE TO, go with her to some to do at her Attorney's house on Saturday. She knows the rule but she didn't choose the day. Dude says I can watch the game in his basement mancave and the other attorney is a big Cat fan. Not optimum conditions but I can make it work.
Have a great day!
Thanks for the tip. I think I will pass on the movie and save two wasted hours of my life. There is nothing worse than a bad movie. I ain't got time for thatNo, you really don't need to watch it. I watched when it came out on TV. All I can remember was suffering though until the end just to find out why he jumped. It was a real stinker and I think it bombed at the box office. Should have.
We are getting flooded with people running out of Chicago and their story is interesting. A lot of the people coming down here are in the restaurant business or service related and hotels, etc.The only train I've ridden is the L in Chicago. Back when I loved visiting there, we'd take a 1 hour flight into Midway and the L straight to our hotels in the Loop. Plenty to do and see. I'm simply not interested in encouraging their politics and blatant disregard for life, liberty, and personal safety. They will get as little of my money as possible from here forward
I did not like it either but, I "liked" it anyway.and you did not even like my post that I worked on for twenty minutes!
dang.
It had already been popped in some of these post.😋Speaking of movies, it is Friday Night Movie time at my house. The corn is a popping.
Thanks Warrior cat.I did not like it either but, I "liked" it anyway.I jest of course. It was very informative and was something I never gave much thought to concerning passenger train usage in America. Rode in many across Germany and Europe and just wondered why we did not have a similar system. Your post made sense as to why we did not.
Thank you, Jed.@jedwar : Kind sir, can you please do us a favor when you have time and move Don's post in the "Video of Mayfield Tornado from Inside Bank" thread over to here in the D-League? It's early.
Many thanks!
Good morning from ATX. Currently 64°F with thunderstorms. Power flicked off a couple times already. Cold front moving in. We're already near today's high. Expect upper-30s later tonight.
Cats got a game today vs UNC in Vegas at 4:30 pm CST. Go Cats!
Six college FB bowl games playing today. May watch a few.
I'm heading out grocery shopping later on this morning for roast turkey breast and other holiday goodies. Planning on making Christmas meal at home this year.
Wishing happiness and health for all our fellow D-League members.

I'm thinking we could meet half way.........I'll bring you some of my rolled oysters and you can bring me a sampler of those two items.......I am crazy for "deep fried" and loves me some sweet taters.......has she tried deep frying those taters?Sir, Sir, Sir,...... Ole Leon is getting larger for sure (This Leon...) My Darling has been on a rampage of late...She always cooks well and I eat well but now she is upping the quantities. I've been eating these today and for three days like popcorn... (Freshly made daily) (What you see below is still digesting)
(Inside chucked full of; hamburger meat along with cabbage, spices, and some egg noodles)

That is exactly how they were cooked...I'm thinking we could meet half way.........I'll bring you some of my rolled oysters and you can bring me a sampler of those two items.......I am crazy for "deep fried" and loves me some sweet taters.......has she tried deep frying those taters?
Thank you!Happy anniversary!
Glad that power is all you lost......I have been looking into a Kohler whole house generator..... I had a 13K portable generator back when I raised parrots........the could take the cold but not cold and dark.........once again really glad you folks avoided the carnage......Morning folks. It is already in the low sixties and raining lightly.
It sure is good to have utilities working. Last week we had nothing. I had to run the vehicle to charge the cell phones and then the cell phone towers went down.
I don't like living in the 19th Century.
Jed is not old enough for me to call him "uncle."Good morning! Pretty impressed with the weather people. They only missed the storm track by about 200 miles. Not complaining about the results, just making a snide remark.
I'm not happy at all about what I'm about to do today, but no one there will know my disdain for the whole situation. According to the MMPI - Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory - I have what is known as "savior faire". I will use that superpower to ensure no harm comes to me or those around me today.
Thank you!
You're not old enough for me to call you "father" either. Unless you were a horny young rascal with big thighs.Jed is not old enough for me to call him "uncle."
Huh.You're not old enough for me to call you "father" either. Unless you were a horny young rascal with big thighs.![]()
I don't know where you used to get those. I'll try to go back and find one. It may have been from the CBS Sports site.What is the name of the site where we used to get the cool halftime and final stats?
Sorry bud, that was a reference to a post I made a couple of nights ago.Huh.
