Apathy

lead poisoning?

No it’s not my dog. There was a 14 yr old English setter that was hiking with his owner and 4 other dogs and startled a Black Bear. He ended up losing his life protecting his family from the bear. It’s went viral now 

  poor puppy.

He is a Pug/Pomeranian mix. We gave my son the option to name him which he chose Jacob haha. I told him that’s a humans name and he doesn’t care, so any Jacobs on this board, I’m going to apologize on my sons behalf haha

Almost all of our animals (and there have been a lot of them over the years) have had people names.  

We’ve had dogs named after Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake. My daughter named our current dog Sydney.

Heard this the other day on the Elvis Duran show and meant to post it then. I’m ok with either answer

One hole.  Two openings.  A hole in the ground has one opening.  lulz

Do tell!

Daddy daughter date tonight

Nice!

We're having family movie night tonight. Probably Pete's Dragon or Cars 3. Any other suggestions for kids/family movies that recently came out on Netflix/Amazon/Redbox?

RIP.  Incredible to hit 100 years.  Father inlaw hits 90 in a couple of weeks and i hope he makes it 10 more years.

What’s incredible is that’s she stopped working when she was 97 or 99. That’s dedication and she was so nice and lovely to talk to. Always had a smile on her face. Hope your father in law makes it to beyond 100

I think working so long must have been good for her longevity- seems like the busier older folks are, the longer they live.  Sense of purpose is important.

I’m a level 40.....I bought the gingerbread man yesterday haha

I believe Joy Villa does, knapp does not.

Ha I’ve heard the same thing 

You can have subway delivered now?

 i have never heard of joy villa.

kk...looked her up.   still never heard anything she has ever sang.     i don't listen to MAGA radio so doubt i ever will.   lol

I'm willing to become a cross dresser and temporarily denounce my husband on saturdays in the fall, if she's buying the tickets.

Don't know much about the choices you mentioned, but we've had Onkyo's in the past and would buy again.

Thanks.....dilly dilly

If you want to go wireless then Sonos will be much better than Bose.  However, running wires behind walls isn't too complicated especially if you have a suspended ceiling.  If you ever want true surround sound, you will have to plug your rear speakers into an outlet in locations that you probably don't have outlets.  But if a soundbar and sub is all you want, then the Sonos playbar and sub is significantly better than Bose.  There are also much cheaper soundbars with wireless subs that will be better than Bose.

My ceiling is a drywall finish so I’m not to excited about running wires and creating holes lol but I haven’t completely ruled that out. Whatever route I go, the products must be carried through Best Buy cause I work there part time and I get a discount.

@Dewiz  Been traveling the last couple of days.  Here is my assessment; use as you wish.  Systems like SoNos are a closed ecosystem.  Currently, it supports 5.1, the current state of the art is 7.4.2+.  When Sonos decides to expand there is zero guarantee that the current systems won't be left behind., with wired you just run more wires and upgrade the receiver, and sell the old one on CL to offset the costs.

If you are starting with a 5.1 system there is no need to knock holes in the ceiling.  Under carpet runs are pretty easy to do, this will save hassle down the line if you upgrade to ATMOs.  IMO long term effective leans on wired.

Volleyball is easy to watch, easy to understand, and takes very good athleticism to play, not to mention a very entertaining sport. Many families grow up with daughter's playing the sport so they are familiar with it. It's also televised. So it's not hard to see why, in a state with no major pro sports, a successful and publicized team get a strong following. Especially when the other mainstay team has been sub par for almost a decade.

How dare she not be a fairweather fan.

Why couldn't anyone be excited for both NC vball game and a bowl game if their favorite program was in it? That is "JaySker" logic.

It's never over in volleyball. It's a momentum game and it can change in a hurry.

Wait...so it never ends?  Ugggg...I better change my DVR settings! 

Ha. There's been plenty of times I thought matches would never end. I've watched WAY more than my share of volleyball over the last 12 years.

I can live with that. 

Welcome aboard, Mr. Martinez.  But does anyone have info on the injury?  I've started to sift through his thread buy don't really see any details.  What I know: right shoulder injury during Junior basketball that was originally supposed to be healed by the start of football but still caused him to miss his Senior season.  I'm assuming with scholarship offers and the AA game that people have seen him at camps or something.   Just looking for current video since the injury, thanks!

@funhusker I understand it was a torn labrum that was repaired by one of the top ortho surgeons in the nation. He played his junior season with the injury. From what I've heard, he will be good to go and it should not be a concern going forward.
