Re: Football!!!
Right. Remember back a few years, when every Steelers game the announcers would fawn over Leveon Bell's running style? "Look at how he pauses in the hole, such a unique runner!"

Re: Would you start a PP for a 6 year old?
I've given my niece and nephew a share of VT for their birthdays, they're 4 and 6. Maybe I'll change what I buy them, but I'll give them the whole thing at 18.

Re: I-bond Rate May 2020
I just bought some I bonds. They don't really generate any excitement, but they're not going to kill you either. They're basically vegetables.

I think we're in a Darwinian selection event for: Introvert - Extrovert Patient - Impatient Can work from home - Must work in public spaces Financially independent - Must work Healthy and younger - Older and sicker --------------- well, but older people and sicker people are past reproductive age.....

The guitar effects in the Wonders songs sound like the synth effects in the Fountains song. The backing vocals harmonization. and their usage are similar. Nobody did backing vocals like that when Stacy's Mom came out. The vocal reverb is similar. It sounds like the Wonders song was recorded on old e...

Re: Coronavirus General Discussion
But one thing, in particular, that I've thought about recently is how *really* miserable I'd be if I had to wear a face mask for 8+ hours/day. Maybe it's mostly me and my stuffy nose, but I go on a grocery store run and I'm absolutely *miserable* within an hour of having a mask covering my mouth/no...

I've never been arrested. My egress is on point.
And most of my friends have had their weddings in rural areas with low police presence.

Re: Daily "Check In" Thread For Us
Mid thirties does seem like a good age to commit. Old enough to have gained some wisdom, young enough to really enjoy the bulk of the rest of your life. It's been a day since the breakup. Maybe my wanting to get married is just the influence of other people settling down... and perhaps I really nee...

Great video of high school students in 1958 discussing college. The usual cast of characters shows up. The guidance counselor seems like a jerk.

Thank you again all of you for chiming in. It's definitely a trying time for me. I'm suddenly feeling very lonely. It's not like I can even visit a friend right now to get some company.
