re: Have lived whole life in 50-mile radius or less for 80% or more of your life…

Moved 1200 miles away for almost 19 years.
Learned a lot about new people and places...in turn taught me a lot about where I was from. It was a great decision. Now I'm only 2 hours from where I grew up. Whenever I visit my hometown (where almost no one ever leaves), I can now see that they appear to be missing out on quite a bit. But, to each his own...some folks want to keep life simple and don't want or need more than they have. They do, however, all have this same miserable and defeated look on their face. So, are they happy or not? Hard to tell.
I'm just glad I experienced all that I did. I'm sure I'm better for it. I recommend getting out of any 'rut' that anyone might be in. Get out, go see things, do things, eat new foods, meet new people.
That comfort zone you may have is likely a detriment.

1. Watch the documentary "Unrivaled: Red Wings vs. Avalanche"
2. Obtain a cursory understanding of the rules/penalties.
3. Catch a game in person.
4. Watch a bunch of playoff games on TV. Especially if you can catch a Game 7 (in any round).
You'll be a fan.

What is the likelihood that she didn't even need any head coaching? Think she was already good at it?

GGpa died when I was 2.
GGma died when I was 11. I have lots of great memories of her.

Was really hoping the compensation for Mikko included some solid goaltending. Guess not. Hate losing Moose.

Assembled a Radio Flyer tricycle for my 2-year old. She was sitting on it, and I wanted to turn her and the trike in a different direction because she was close to a wall. Went to lift it, and the handlebar piece popped out, causing me to hit myself in the mouth with it. Got a fat lip for Christmas.
Better me than her. Currently treating it with eggnog.

I feel like I would wreck shop in a Bluey trivia contest.
I watch it daily.

re: What's your favorite side dish at Thanksgiving?
Posted by BunkieWrench on 11/28/24 at 10:35 pm
Toss up between the scalloped oysters, sweet potato praline, and the rosemary foccacia sausage stuffing.
I'm about ready to tear into some coconut custard pie and some pumpkin praline cheesecake.

I think the Goldmans are to blame for what you're speaking of.
