    2025-2026 College Football, Now the Minor Leagues of the NFL.

    I rarely watch a game live. Was going to look in at the LSU/ Florida game. At my parents and they are about 100 yards from the blackout line for the game on local. Wrong side of the river.

    EVE Online

    The update on Tuesday had a number of changes to things here and there. But everyone can claim a free pilot resculpt in the New Eden Store with your weekly 10k free SP or whatever it is. Sounds like major pandering to me. You can resculpt your looks as normal but now you can change the sex you...

    No way of knowing but would be nice to know how many were legal citizens that lost a job compared to how many got deported or self deported.

    Why I said a while back that Jonathon may be the best person for the job getting things designed and produced I don't know. I do know they should have found someone else to be the face of the company for PR and annoucements.

    Elderly Parents and Looking Out for Them

    My mother took a big fall last night. I wasn't there but stopped by to pick up some stuff. They have a small closet off the hall that has a small night light that hangs off the door knob. I noticed it was on the floor. Turns out she fell into the door. She has a pretty big lump on her head...

    Cool things

    I know things that interest me are of no interst to most people. Sitting here today was thinking about cool things I've seen or been around. One of those days. Either today or tomorrow I'll be checking in a hospital for possibly the last time. In 1992 I spent the summer in Alaska on the Kenai...

    That's been my experience as well, but guessing a lot of people can't easily buy non ethanol gas. It's all they sell here at the marinas and near the lake. You pay a premium but for small engines it's probably better than to having to drain your stuff or clean your carb and such.

    Health Problems

    I've been a number of MRIs and only one place that I know of has an open MRI and it wasn't a place I went to. I figure there is a huge upsell to them for people that won't fit into a normal one or claustrophobic. It's also the only place I've seen that advertises they do MRIs and have an open...

    Health Problems

    I get head, heck, and spine with and without contrast. It takes about 1-1/2 hours or so. By the time they do the first scan and then the dye and then another scan. They use several foam type deals to support your legs/knees and your head/neck so it doesn't move. I don't have to breath in and out...

    I keep gas in my generator and other power equipment. Of course we don't really have a winter to winterize stuff for when stuff won't be used for months. I've mowed my grass the week of Christmas and some years in freaking shorts. Anyway I mix the gas with stabil and stuff like a portable...

    Job Hunting

    Normally I will know at least some of the recent hitory of a company. But if I don't I ask when their last lay off was and what for. From what I've been told a loty of people never ask. Some companies get caught up in other stuff like 2008 or whatever. There are some companies that will man up...

    I'm not playing but I did watch the reveal/annoucement video. Jonathon may be the best dev or manager in the world. But they really should get someone else to be the "face" of those type of things.

    Wish I knew what triggers this shit. Even after a long list of specialist and the Mayo twice it still is not a direct "fit" so to speak. I have had very little strength forever and the last few days with help I can get to my chair which I can touch the end of my bed with my left arm while...

    I think my prep was one day or maybe a little more and the only eat/don't eat I got was don't drink anything other than clear stuff and don't eat anything after a certain time. It wasn't all that bad. It was obviously they were used to doing and it was maybe 15 minutes after I got to the...

    Parents told me today they are looking to move. Mom is 80 and dad is 83.

They have a hospital less...

    3 earthqauakes yesterday near me in east, TX. Thed higgest was a 3.or something around there. Earthquakes are very rare here. I didn't notice anything and the map showed the biggest about 20 miles away. Around 175 miles away from Houston if driving and the highway is pretty straight to there.

    Closing in on $40/troy ounce for silver. Heard all kind of things but supply hasn't been keeping up with worldwide demand. Who knows heard everything from use in electric cars, missles, and handheld games. Surprised they haven't thrown in aliens or one of the dead Hunt brothers.
