Shades of Deivi Cruz

"I Think You Should Leave" is utterly brilliant. Sure there are a few misses, but the hits are amazing and quite frequent. It's on Netflix, for those unfamiliar.

Same. No idea who I would prefer to run in his place either.

Agreed, though I do really like Mandalorian.

I started Yellowstone last night, and I agree with you. I'll give it some time, but the first episode definitely dragged. I had been wanting to watch it, but don't subscribe to Paramount+ and the first season is only on Peacock. I noticed though that DirecTV has a Paramount channel. I setup a recording for all episodes and waited. Finally last weekend they had a marathon of all of the previous seasons, so I got them all. Now I have 38 more episodes to watch. LOL! I'll watch a couple more this week, and if it doesn't grab me by then, I'll just delete them.

This is the unfortunate truth. It seems to be just behind Texas and Florida.

While I am mostly disappointed in my state of Ohio, at least Majewski got it handed to him. I never really expected Dewine to lose, but I was hopeful Tim Ryan could beat out Vance.

Too bad there isn't a version yet for Honda, or I would get this for my wife for Christmas. It annoys her to no end that she has to push that button every time she gets in the car.

My son is a senior in HS and we went on a campus visit this past Monday. While there he posted about it on (I think) Snapchat. Someone who is a freshman there replied and was going to meet up to talk to him, except his class schedule conflicted with what we had scheduled. He made sure to say that my son could reach out with any questions he might have though. The amazing thing about this to me is that the two of them are not friends. They went to the same grade school and maybe played soccer or baseball together a time or two, but they never hung around together or anything. It's what social media is supposed to be for, and it just blew my mind that teenagers can (and do) use those apps for good. You always just hear about how they are used for bullying, etc, so I was very pleased to see the other side of it.

Gross. I want to see anything but that. LOL! I was rooting for the Ms yesterday, but I have a hard time seeing how they bounce back from that loss. Just excruciating...

The whole supply issue is still nutty. I've been car shopping recently. The Chevy dealer says that some features are missing (heated seats and the like), but they will be treated like a recall once the chips are available. Reasonable enough. Mazda on the other hand are also missing features (sat radio, power lift gate), but with no plans to take care of it later. They just knocked a couple hundred bucks off the price. I actually ended up ordering a Honda CR-V, but without being able to test drive it or have any idea of when I'll get it. That was about 3 weeks ago, and I still don't even have an estimate of any kind. I really like the look of the Mazda CX-5, but the controls are really wonky. Instead of a touch screen, they have this weird control knob on the console between the two front seats. I don't think that's any sort of supply issue, but was designed that way. Hated it.

I love that Portland Oregon track she did with Jack White. It's not on Spotify though, so I never really get to hear it anymore.

Hey now, I'm not 50 and I know the reference well!

I changed it back to the football game before the ball even hit the ground… Sorry, but watching the Vikings lose takes precedence for me over Sept baseball for eliminated teams.

guess that would be me…

I mean, this is really it. If they wanted people merging a mile earlier, they would have closed it a mile earlier. Sitting in traffic with an empty (still open) lane next to you is a bad idea.

I enjoyed Squid Game as much as anyone else, but Odenkirk got completely hosed on that. Also, I loved the character Ruth on Ozark, but Rhea deserved that win. The last season of Ozark was a bit of a mess, while BCS was delivering the goods. PS: I was very happy with all of the love White Lotus got. That show was a lot of fun.

I have added this to my to-do list for smoker recipes. Looks great, and seems simple enough even I can't screw it up.

I'm not thrilled the banning of the shift passed. Now hitters have even less reason to adjust. Not to mention that fielders will just move as close to second base and the outfield grass as they can get. The pitch clock I like. The long delays between pitches has been annoying for years. Bigger bases I don't care about. I don't even know what "problem" that was solving.

I have a Spotify playlist that started as a workout mix, but has morphed to basically be nearly every song I like. It has stuff from the 70s/80s all the way up to new music and includes rap, pop, rock, Prince, Jimmy Buffett... I just looked at it, and it has 1466 songs on it for a total of 91 hours. LOL!

Agreed. I feel the same way every time there is a "royal wedding". I don't understand all the hoopla. At least in this case she had been a very public figure for a long time.

I'm more Dom Draper about them...

Now there's a titillating's matchup... September baseball when your team is out of it, totally sucks.
