    @Rainman said in Murphy's Law and Treadmill: iFit daily, love it. Tommy Rivs is excellent as a trainer, he does a lot of research of history, architecture, etc. Can't stand the dopey trainers rah-rah you can do it! I have iFit too. I am good friends with lots of the trainers now. I couldn’t help but roll my eyes at one extremely fit lady who led me through 30 minutes of mild incline walking and at the end said it was the hardest hike she had ever done in her life. I guess her job is to try to channel people who are barely able to move, and make them feel normal.

    Jerry Lee has been in bad health for awhile. A note about Myra...She was no shrinking violet. People around Ferriday knew that. One of my friends was topping off a couple of his daddy's log trucks at the Billups station in Ferriday back in the day. Jerry pulled into the station in his black Cadillac and the attendant left my buddy to talk to Jerry. Voices got loud. Dammit, Jerry, the boss said you can't have any more gas on a ticket, until you pay on your bill, was what my friend heard. About that time, Myra drove past in a black Lincoln. Jerry Lee looked back at the gas station attendant and told him in no uncertain terms... I bet that bitch has a full tank of gas in her car...

    @taiwan_girl said in The Art Of The Deal: secret service has to stay where the president or their family stays That's how it worked when the Obama family took all those multi-million dollar Hawaii trips home.

    @Horace said in My Russian friend....: That might be triggering for some. Based on some of his reported conversations with HR over the years, he's cleaned it up a lot. People who are easily upset are best avoiding him. He manages to outrage conservatives and liberals alike.

    @George-K said in Youse, yinz, y’all: Another side note. I recall listening to a lecture about a related topic, and how English used to have "formal" and "informal" uses of the second person. So, "you" was considered the formal usage of the word. "Your Majesty, it is such a pleasure to meet you." However, "thee" was considered the informal. "Bob, I will always consider thee my friend." In Richard III, one of the characters (I forget which) is berating Richard for his betrayal of her family, and she goes on a rant. At the beginning, she addresses the nobleman by calling him "you." By the end of the rant, she's using "thee." This, supposedly, was Shakespeare's way of showing how Richard has lost standing with her. This is also why the Amish and their ilk use "thee" instead of "you." It's less formal. Or at least it used to be. I'm sure @Aqua-Letifer will have something to add. We used to have an accusative case, too. I miss accusative case.

    Also, it's interesting to see the percentage of Latino even out after the 90s. I feel like in the MLB there recently has been a surge in Latino talent. Either way, good for them, those Latin American countries have some incredible passion for the game, often contrasted with the bare bones facilities and equipment to use. Many have found a great way to improve their life (and for their families) by working hard at baseball.
