Loved the movie. Really really good.

Yea I was expecting that demon bunny to be more present, was kind of bummed it wasn’t, but definitely worth it when it was around.

It actually happens regularly. They routinely will scrimmage men 18 and younger club teams as their sparring partners. It’s the only way to regularly scrimmage against opponents better than them.
Mentioned in another thread but the preferred card is offering 75,000 points currently. It is $94/year fee. Obviously has less extra perks but pretty significant point total for a low fee card.
That's kind of all his stuff. They are a suspense driven thriller/mystery. I think he is one of the best at building dread and gravity in scenes right now.
Going to see on Saturday. Can’t wait. Absolutely loved Oddity and Caveat.
The covid vaccine really did some irreprable damage to pharma trust as well as the medical community as a whole. Showed how easily medical professionals will just regurgiate what they are told to without a second thought, and how easily pharma can just lie about their testing standards and what was done, and still get the government to back the lie. It was a sight to see.

But yea overall I agree with your point, generally the anti-vax crowd is just woefully ignorant around most of what they are against and lump all vaccines together, when they really shouldn't.

I think there is some valid conversation that should be had and looked at more with how aggressively the vaccine schedule is for developing infants. I don't think they are bad by any means, but I think the scope and how quickly they are all given is something worth monitoring and studying more.
I don't know if they are still this way but they were years ago, but you will almost assuredly get declined by Chase when you first apply if you go with them and apply online instead of in person. They seem to make almost everyone go through this whole ordeal to verify identity and will decline you and make you go through some different steps to appeal and such. I somewhat appreciate it as it is just an added headache to help deter some crap from happening, but isn't that big of a deal. Just something to be aware of if you go that route. I'd assume if you apply in person at a physical Chase location, it may a little more straightforward.
Chase Sapphire Preferred is a pretty good bang for your buck card, especially if you are just starting out using cards. $95 annual fee, currently offering 75k bonus points if you spend $5,000 in your first 3 months from the account open date. It has a lot of good benefits, travel perks, etc. Not saying it is the end all be all card, but it really checks a lot of boxes and for someone that isn't hyper-sensitive to maximizing credit cards as you won't be, it is a very hands off card that you'll still be able to get a ton of rewards from.

Earn 5x total points on travel purchased through Chase Travel, excluding hotel purchases that qualify for the $50 Annual Chase Travel Hotel Credit.*

Earn 2x on other travel purchases.*

Earn 3x points on dining, including eligible delivery services, takeout and dining out.*

Earn 3x points on online grocery purchases (excluding Target,* Walmart and wholesale clubs).*

Earn 3x points on select streaming services.*

Earn 1 point per dollar spent on all other purchases.*

Plus, each account anniversary you'll earn bonus points equal to 10% of your total purchases made the previous year. That means if you spend $25,000 on purchases, you'll get 2,500 bonus points.*


I put everything I can on a credit card, in today's world it is almost foolish not to. Just pay the card off every month. Ignore the credit limit, treat it like a debit card as far as how much you can spend on it. You're spending the same amount of your money, might as well get something for it.

Disregarding the talent aspect for a moment, the boost from just playing with roughly the same guys for 3-ish years together can't be overstated. From a scheme to just familiarity on the field, today's game you have so much roster turnover each year you spend half your practice time just getting guys on the same page every offseason.

Classifying retirement funds as “savings” nullifies this whole thread. If your retirement is in a savings account, you’ve fricked up



You call your retirement savings something other than retirement savings? I think you are conflating two things there. Retirement savings does not automatically mean it is in a savings account.

Does anyone know if they allow cigar smoking at either of the hotel rooftop bars downtown?


Don’t know about Moon Shine. The one on top of Redmont used to, but haven’t been up there much since they got renovated and new ownership.

I am also a huge fan of Automatic. And love Helen.


If you haven’t done Armor House yet, definitely check it out. I think I like it more than Helen now (and I love Helen). Last time we went, my wife got their beef tenderloin and it was killer. Lapeer is a new steakhouse that opened up a few months ago. It was very good as well.

He is a treasure. Cool video of him throwing down at Saw's last night or the night before for his birthday.

Night and day difference. Right around that time it started to really explode and ~2009 ish or so it started to really become a feeder/tester city for a lot of bigger markets.
I guess moreso i'm asking will y'all be free like at say 3:00 in the afternoons or if they are winning, you wouldn't be able to get away from the game until like 8:00 or what?

Most of the cocktail bars around town will usually open sometime around 3:00pm or so, some a little earlier and some a little later. Breweries will be open mostly sometime around 11:00am or so. Dives and stuff will probably be open similarly to the breweries. So, depending on when you are able to get out on the town, what there is to do will change some, but there are options for all of it basically in every area of town so you can find an option that will be decently close to wherever you want to go.
Probably my 56, hit it nice and low maybe a foot or so off the ground to keep it out of the wind.
I saw where he'd go to Reds games and he'd be live bettting balls & striked during the games. Can rack up some serious numbers that way
I'm not either, but NCAA going to have to keep generating more money to deal with all the lawsuits that keep getting thrown into by players these days. Whole system is a complete and total mess.
