It's not an easy life, even in the 90's, winning an all-sports record amount of division titles in a row but only winning the big one once

I was there when Fred McGriff debuted and the announcers boxes burned down. Nothing can replace the team you grew up rooting for even if they're just awful

At least we got a shiny new stadium, can't suffer a 20 year old one to be used!! :v:

I know a few people who are longstanding Red Sox fans and I don't begrudge them their hubris. It sucks losing forever and being in the same division as the Yankees I'm sure. The only way you're gonna win in that situation is to spend big.

I did make some bandwagoner mad by calling them the nouveau Yankees tho haha.

quote:

Odessa, Texas has been featured in pop culture landmarks like No Country For Old Men as the quintessential middle of nowhere town. It’s so isolated that when an estimated 100,000 tires caught fire on Sunday, the closest fire hydrant was about four miles away. That means that a lot of toxic smoke filled the air and there was plenty of time to shoot some jaw-dropping drone footage.

“It’s still burning. It was way beyond our means to put it out last night,” West Odessa Volunteer Fire Chief Jimmy Ellis told a local news outlet on Monday. The fire reportedly started around 3 PM on Sunday afternoon and raged throughout the night. Because of the lack of fire hydrants, local firefighters found themselves in a losing cycle of bringing in fire trucks, spraying their water resources and going back for more. When they returned, the fire had just grown larger.

The frustrated volunteers simply didn’t have the resources to stop it. “We haven’t even been able to get down in the pit where it started because it’s so hot you can’t get down in that pit,” Ellis said. “The rubber just stays hot and it will adhere to your boots and the bunker gear.” Early on Monday, the EPA was called in to provide additional resources.

man. man i wish someone had actually played hardball with trump during the campaign. not the political-style snide but not actually indecent and ultimately 3rd grade-tier jokes. just someone in a debate going 'gently caress you, you're full of poo poo', and interrupting him constantly, and maybe punching him once or twice. these assholes were goddamn polite to the bastard though when any one of them ought to have smelled what was going on and thought to compete with him. Jim Gilmore coulda done it, in the briefest moment in which he might've been in the same location at Trump, he had to have recognized he was only going to get one minute in the spotlight elsewhere and jumped at the chance, he had the kind of who-gives-a-poo poo attitude for it.

the campaign shoulda been a chest-beating gorilla-fest instead of the single gorilla making GBS threads all over some lemurs though

I got into the bath when they went down and as soon as the water was run and I was in, they were up. Obviously this was a sign and of course I ended up sitting in that bath for a solid 3.5 hours because if I got up and they lost I couldn't live with myself

Unless you're in a dense city center or smtg, get a hybrid 50 miles per charge/switch to combustion deal. Bolt lets you charge off the grid OR use the gas engine to charge when that runs out which means it's actually a functional car for 100% of the US. It's 50 miles per charge versus 240 or so but that's plenty. Not sure how many on the market offer both electric and gas inputs atm tho, I just went with an high MPG non-hybrid and have been happy with it

The Bolt is the 240 mile all electric and the Volt is the 50 miles electric / able to switch to combustion engine deal. You are extremely correct that the Volt is a kickass car and pretty much perfect w/r/t modern infrastructure as far as efficient vehicles go. If you have a place to plug in at night you'll probably never need gas but if you wanna go for trips it gets great mpg. The tax credit is still available so you get 7.5k off new ones- if you have good credit and can put a bit down your payment will be tiny. Really great car (with a really annoying naming scheme, spark/volt/bolt :cmon:)

And yeah, the Bolt is what Tesla promised as far as an affordable all-electric EV, but without the ipad bolted to the dash, and also it's available now. Okay and it looks less sexy but it's a drat good car.

I type this mostly because this thread moves so fast anything I say gets lost to time very quickly. Not really of course, but enough for what I want.

I went to see my mom last week as she got over a double mastectomy surgery for a breast cancer scare. She's totally fine now, about the best kind of cancer scare you could have.

While I'm gone, all in a single loving week, a friend from grad school's wife goes into relapse for lymphoma and dies in about 5 days... I can't even imagine what that is like.

I'm really close to my mom so I tend to talk with her about these sorts of things, but gently caress if I'm going to potentially scare her, even if her situation isn't nearly as bad.
