If you've seen his retirement notice on Instagram, it was given by his children, not him. He'll be ok. The Saints owe him a few million in dead money and NBC has already offered him a multi-million dollar contract. Brees will probably start out doing Notre Dame (he is an old Purdue guy and knows a lot abiut the Midwest) and eventually take over for Collinsworth on Sunday Night Football. Besides, he's building a new house in Hawaii and he has his homes in New Orleans and San Diego. Personally, I think he should keep residency in New Orleans, for at least a good part of the year. Cassidy will be in the Senate for five more years. Brees is a moderate Republican and would be tailor-made for this state. Brees could win in a walk.

@doctor-phibes said in Uh, about that June wedding...: once he ran for President he appeared to be become a bit of a turd without any real core beliefs of his own. Yeah, I've always felt that with Romney, there's no there there.

A couple of fairly obvious things... Wherever you may want to install the heater, bear in mind hot air rises. For efficiency, the thermostat should be placed close to the liquids stored.

This is just more reason for everybody to get vaccine.

I’m also considering Atlantis, but the ancillary activities seem like they will be very expensive (snubs, etc...). So I am thinking instead of renting one of the Condos in the Harborside, and actually going to the Nassau City Pier for the Snorkeling trips...

@loki said in Vaccine distribution? We don' need no steenkin' distribution!: @mik said in Vaccine distribution? We don' need no steenkin' distribution!: If there is a threat make it known or send them home. Ridiculous. This is what you get when you storm the Capitol and people die. Blame the insurrectionists for this shit sandwich. This is what you get when you tell people that a few doofusses taking selfies is an insurrection.

@george-k said in Hey, Expanse Geeks!: @doctor-phibes said in Hey, Expanse Geeks!: I've been watching it again with the VR goggles. Details? That sounds like a hell of a lot of fun. I just bought some Oculus Quest 2 Goggles, primarily so I could play some of the VR games on the PC, but while I wait for the connection cable to arrive (it's a long story involving UPS) I've been using them to watch stuff on Amazon - essentially, the Amazon app simulates a big cinema screen. The technology isn't all the way there yet, but the Amazon app works pretty well, if you don't mind wearing the goggles. For $300, the technology has impressed me a lot. I suspect that in about 10 years it will be amazing. The goggles aren't the most comfortable things in the world, but they're fine for an hour or so at a time, and some of the VR videos are also quite impressive.

So she was pissed off even back then. Huh.

Reading more closely the death penalty is under appeal. It’s the defense counsel’s duty to represent him as best he/she can. If the suit is heard it will be interesting to hear the court’s legal response.

10 year anniversary of the earthquake at Fukushima! Crazy how fast time goes by

I remember "learning" as a kid, that if you tense up your arm when a mosquito is biting it, it will not be able to remove its stinger and will continue to suck blood until it burst, like the video above. I remember trying it. It did not work. All I had left was a very big scratching mosquito bite, and a mosquito that flew away with alot of my blood!!!

Omg BLM is going to be so embarrassed.

That’s some utopia they created in Portland. A reminder of what all those “ideals” lead to. A life of strife.

Where's Larry? It's Pie Day!
