The Marino SB. I remember going with my parents to watch game at one of their friend’s house.
It’s been a while since I listened to Ill Communication but used to really like the instrumental songs in addition to the better known songs.

Ma Belle got the Ill Communication…
I’ve been in a couple of situations where most of the employees knew we were up for sale, including one where we were bought by a PE that told us there was a 5 year plan to help us grow for the flip.

That company was indeed flipped by the PE and is now part of Baker Hughes.
Many times I’ve wondered how much there is to know…
I get my hair cut about every 3 months. It’s initially sorta short but starts to feel like a mini mullet by end.

I’ve always thought about letting it go a little longer but never have.
I am afraid of having to eat Vienna sausages forever due to nuclear fallout. Hopefully there will be higher quality German sausages and beer in that scenario.
I don’t watch regular season anymore but will be tuned into playoffs like usual.

Per capita is probably West Virginia #1.
Both iconic performances. I like AIC’s songs better and the Unplugged show highlighted the vocal harmonies and arrangements really well. My vote for AIC.
I’ve always wanted to compete in something like this, for example 10 of the most common sports. I play a lot of sports and while I’m nowhere near professional in any of them, my false sense of confidence makes me believe I could beat most people and perhaps even LeBron when combining results from all of them.

I’ve even come close to suggesting a TD completion where something like 4 weekends during year are planned to cover 10 sports. Minimum participation of 7 to qualify for overall title. Some team sports like basketball might need individual adjustments, whether 1on1 or skills that can be objectively scored such as those old school hot shots games.
I think Padel has been around for a long time. I was mentioning Pickleball to coworkers in Middle East a few years ago and they hadn’t heard of it but said they grew up playing Padel.

I initially thought it was two names for same game but learned later that wasn’t the case.

re: IPAs tear me up

I rarely drink two IPAs in a row or even in same night. Ideally every drink or beer is something different than the one before.

Beer in general is giving me more of an allergies reaction in older age.
MLB is weird. Petit admits to PEDs but gets a pass while Clemens is crucified and no chance of getting in.

Beltran was a fringe HOF but obviously the main guy who led the Astros trash cans and d taught them to follow many of the things the Yankees had been doing.
Seems like yesterday that I watched footage of him training at his basketball academy type HS. His entire Sr year was targeted to training for NBA future.
I get good sleep 95% of time and definitely not anywhere near fat.

However, there are times I struggle mid-afternoon with sluggishness. I usually just drink coffee and try to move around a little more like some of the responses suggest.
I’ve been hearing the a-hole thing for years and assume there is some substance to that, although MLB writers were always the most smug a-holes and used their collective strength to bully/smear anyone that stood up to them.

If I were back in that era knowing the hypocrisy of MLB as it existed at the time, I’d probably speak my mind and be considered one of the biggest a-holes of that era.
How many times has this been done for 5 consecutive years, regardless of whether it was the initial 5 years of career?

I’m guessing a very short list?
I take a 2 hr nap about 2x/month and usually on either a Saturday or Sunday early afternoon.

I often go to bed a little later those days and sleep fine. Maybe due to often being busy on those days.
I wonder how many other edge rushers could’ve been all-time great RBs. I bet there are a few.

Henry is already top 5 and in conversation. Seems like he could have another great year or two left.

re: Anyone Drink Celsius?

Posted by litenin on 12/23/25 at 5:25 pm to
I think this is a moderation thing. My norm in recent years may be testing upper limits of moderation.

Half of my days are coffee averaging 3 cups/day. Other half of days is one energy drink that I rotate between Celsius, Bang, C4, etc. There have been a few times with one morning coffee and afternoon energy drink for workout but try to limit.
I got shingles around age of 33, roughly 15 years ago. I never had any noticeable chicken pox symptoms as a kid.

I assume no need to get vaccine now although heard it’s possible to have shingles twice?
