If I had kids I would decorate, but not that evil and gruesome displays people put out.

For Christmas we go all out!

I’m in Athens today, graffiti covers everything, even vans parked on the street


Disembarked our cruise ship in Athens last weekend and was also astonished at the level of graffiti. Saw frick Israel everywhere.

Athens is a total shite hole. Makes NOLA look like eden. Except for the ancient ruins there's nothing visually appealing about it.
The Big Syl!!!

This is great

These sport writers are completely lazy in their reporting, research, and intentionally leave out facts. Just regurgitate the same old themes...Lane is bad, no morals, only cares about himself...just for clicks.

Yahoo Sports Dan Wolken's article today was prime example.

Currently on a cruise in the Mediterranean and have been wearing an LSU hat throughout. Got a few "Go Tigers", but mostly comments like "We can't stand your coach", " yall have NFL players" and "Cheater School". Now these are old farts in their mid 70s coming up to me.

We are in their heads! Love it!

Love him as a ball player and seems like a good business man but he's bad on radio.

This.......but at 3x reg economy my cheap arse wouldn't pay that. When we flew to Europe this summer I bought economy and I would get an email every couple of weeks offering an upgrade. At first it was $1500 per seat (each way) and then by 2 weeks out it was $500 per seat so I jumped on that for the outbound flight. Coming back the time change is easier so I stayed in economy.


Next Thursday flying economy from DC to Barcelona. Only 8 hour flight. I'm 6.1 and wife is 5' and I can handle that seat. I'll have some drinks in me and will be too excited to give a shite. But returning flight starts in Athens to DC is almost 12 hours. Originally booked economy and got lucky and upgraded to United Prem Plus only costing $700/seat. At one time it was $2k per. seat but apparently if you look in the united app at certain times (usually late at night) of the week the prices drop.

Those sleep pods are 6k extra each.

Wow! What a year!
My '21 5.3L GMC Denali experiences a major problem almost every other year

1st the back window was leaking during drive thru car wash. They said "Known Issue", but fixed at no cost.

AC totally went out. Replaced compressor. Known issue...Warranty covered at no costs.

2 months ago engine light came on. $750 for new plugs and cables due to engine misfiring

Most recent issue that it's burning a lot of oil. Low oil indicator came on in between oil changes, but since the new plugs and wires/cables were installed oil level has been normal.

Would go back to a Tundra, but don't like a V6 in a truck and they look like shite.

I just checked at Reykjavik Rost’s website. It was almost $30. They don’t tip there, so that’s it.


My in laws were with us. My FIL is from Mexico and found a nice Mex restaurant in Reykjavík.
$50 for their nachos, but they were delicious.

We'll probably go back one day, but plan on renting an RV, load up at Costco and travel the Ring Road.

I’m going there soon. Any tips?


Went in June. Loved Iceland.. Reykjavik is nice, but wildly expensive and LGBTQ utopia. $37 for 2 coffees and pastries

How many believe we are looking at the end of days?


I wasn't around then, but starting on 536 AD that was as close to the end times you can get. The Plague of Justinian started right after that.

Id say we in the golden years.

n a written statement, her spokesperson, Matt Smith, said the congresswoman had no role in directing any of her trades, including the Meta transactions, and that the NDA played no part in them because she was unaware the trades were happening.


I'm a FA advisor and many of my clients have advisory/discretionary investment accounts which means they have no input on the buys and sales. META and NVDA are very popular stocks to own and in almost everyone's acct. But, restrictions can be added to the account to instruct the portfolio managers to not purchase stocks that would be a conflict of interest to the client. It's client responsibility to inform her advisor about it. If it is a discretionary acct she can't just say she didn't know about the trades.

BR a tourist shop?

People are not looking for one of the worse place in the country to hang out on their vacations.



They have built an ultra exclusive golf course in the Texas panhandle near Childress, TX. It's in the middle of nowehere. My wife grew up there. $200k+ just to join. Golf digest top 100 courses in world. Land was cheap and God only knows what else they doing there besides golfing!!!

Good. He was at his best in the early years. See 12 Monkeys, Seven, and Fight Club etc for example.

Granted his does a lot for LSU, but I'm getting really tired of these billboards

Especially when he says, "Blessed are the meek". While he sues your arse!
