Biff Mayhem

I was yesterday years old when I learned that "America" is the same song as "God Save The King" with different lyrics. Troll level expert.

Apparently no one listened because this is a comment catalyst.

I watched the entire procession although I have no interest in the Royals and found it fascinating. It was a very nice tribute to Queen Elizabeth.

I was going to put this in the “things that bring a smile to your face” thread but it’s probably better here. https://youtu.be/mKA9mrR8gDQ

Happy 20th anniversary to William Ligue and Tom Gamboa. Whatever Happened to the Father and Son Who Brutally Attacked Royals Coach Tom Gamboa? (sportscasting.com)

Probably. Do you think that being blocked from passing will unjerk him or do you think it will embolden him?

I cannot emphasize how fantastic I think that is.

I've seen it occasionally. I've also seen "take turns" but, because it's not the law (that I know of) I don't think MDOT is going to put those signs on every construction merge.

That's a big gamble to take since your insurance company wouldn't pay for damages for this course of action.

And you’d be wrong JBK.

We had a cat like that who absolutely loved to be rubbed by feet.

Bingo! That track CCG posted has not altered my opinion on ELP. But hey, that hat looks good on you! 😉

I have a buddy who is a huge 70's prog fan and I had made a remark to him about me not liking ELP because it sounded like circus music. 30 years later he still brings that up.

Both kids tested positive on Saturday. I've taken three tests since (one about two hours ago) and am negative on all three. That said, I think I had the Vid back in May so my natural immunity might be working.

Billy has been eating well.

Not gonna lie, I had to look up "POC".

Now watch, Charles has been waiting his whole adult life for this and passes before his coronation. That's a Monty Python skit.

The poor Yuppers are stuck with the Lions.

That was great. interesting praise from Grohl since I think he is the hardest hitting drummer I've ever seen/heard.

I would have picked it up with a bag just in case. Fun fact: the pistol used to murder the inhabitants of Cielo Drive was found by a kid who, familiar with police shows, handled it properly to avoid smudging prints. He gave it to a police officer who just grabbed the butt of it and it ended up in the storage room for months before somebody remembered it. They had the murder weapon for months.

This reminded me of a funny story. The house we lived in when I was a young kid had an intercom system. It was a convenient way of getting five kids to come to dinner etc. So we sold the house and eventually one of the next owners, rather than removing the system or unplugging it, simply wallpapered over it. Fast foward a number of years, my neighbor next door, who still lives there, is a HAM radio enthusiast. Due to the age of the intercom system, it would occasionally pick up the signals from his HAM radio. The people thought the house was haunted because of the muffled voices coming out of the walls. Funny enough, it didn't even happen when he was using it. It was picking up random signals from all over the world so sometimes the voices would be speaking foreign languages.

We're starting it this week some time. It's perfect timing because we just watched LOTR all the way through. At first my children were disinterested and spent the first half hour drawing on their drawing pads while looking up occasionally. After the first half hour the drawing pads were down and they were fully engaged. I rewatched the Hobbit movies (well two and three) and had to reverse my opinion on them. I don't think i finished the second one originally or I fell asleep so I didn't bother with the third. A rewatch found me thoroughly enjoying them.

One of my top ten sports moments ever. This is another:

Linky?
