Stevie was every guys dream back in the 70's. She was on SNL not that long ago. She should hang it up. Not because of age, but because she can't sing anymore.

This is sort of crazy. Earlier today former Fleetwood Mac guitarist Lindsey Buckingham was attacked in Santa Monica by a woman known to him, who threw an unknown substance on him and then fled. My first thought was Stevie Nicks, but no This was a woman who's been stalking and harassing him for years and he has a restraining order against her. Apparently just a nutjob. He didn't suffer any injuries from the attack, but after all the mistreatment by his supposed friend Diondre Cole on What's Up With That, now this.

I heard about this earlier today. My first thought: they should have Buckingham on SNL to do another "What's Up With That" skit about this.

A few weeks ago my 84-year-old mom went to the Caribbean for a vacation, and while there bought a shirt similar to the one below. She was clueless about it and just thought it looked tropical and pretty. After she got back she put it on to wear to church one Sunday evening. My brother happened to be visiting and said, "Mom, no! That's a marijuana shirt." He said that as soon as the words came out he thought, "OH FUDGE! What have I done???" My sister and I have made fun of him for ruining what would've been a hilarious moment as our mom strolled into church with her ganja threads on.

My sister doesn't have much room to talk, though. Back in '05, my mom & dad were about to leave for a night out of dinner and a movie when my sister asked them what movie they were going to. My mom told her it was a western about sheep ranching called Brokeback Mountain. My idiot sister warned her off without thinking, then realized she'd ruined a great moment. Our dad would've made a joke and said that was why he raised cattle not sheep, but our mom would've been traumatized. LOL

One of life’s great mysteries is how anyone can sit and watch golf on tv (it’s fun to play but on tv it’s worse than nascar, like wtf is this!?!), then after watching other men drive balls for an entire weekend, immediately turn deadass around and say turn that baseball game off it’s too boring. This is not an opinion, if you disagree seek help.

I struggle with it unless it's Masters or Ryder Cup. The Masters is kinda its own thing. Pomp and circumstance. Ryder Cup is jet fuel patriotism.

But outside of that, golf is not fun to watch.

I like watching the women play but that has nothing to do about the actual golf. 🤗😍

It's great to have on TV while taking an afternoon nap

That's always been my take. Golf is generally pretty boring to watch most of the time.

I was at Torrey Pines for the '08 Open though. I think I mentioned it in another thread forever ago, but I was there for work and managing a server and point of sale system for the merchandise tent. Everyone stopped shopping and was watching the Sunday finish on the big screen projector in the tent, even though it was all happening just outside. We watched as Tiger was taking the putt that would decide if he was going to the playoff with Rocco or if Rocco would be the winner. He lines up the shot, and we could hear the ovation before the ball ever left his putter because of the TV delay. It was massive, pretty cool moment still.



It's kind of crazy in hindsight that this was basically the last time we really got peak Tiger. Right after this he shut down the season to get his knee fixed I think, then he struggled until the '09 infidelity allegations came up that next year. Aside from a surprising Masters win out of nowhere in 2019, Tiger never really got back to his old form after this Open.

My brother and I were laughing yesterday about something our dad used to do. He would get so wrapped up in whatever project he was thinking about or a story he was telling that he would neglect to pay attention to certain things around him. He had a really bad habit of just assuming that if he wanted salad dressing, then the bottle in front of him must be salad dressing, or the tube on the bathroom counter must be toothpaste, and so on. This led to him regularly putting lemon juice on his pancakes, syrup in in coffee, creamer on his salad, salad dressing in his tea, and so on. Over the years he brushed his teeth 20 or 30 times with Neosporin, Preparation H, or some of my mom's makeup.

My favorite was one time he was going to make popcorn. Back in the days before microwaves, you heated oil in a big pot, dumped in the popcorn kernels, and then shook the pot for a few minutes until it all popped. The rest of the family was nearby in the den watching TV and we could hear him shaking and shaking that big soup pot full of popcorn kernels, but none of them were popping. After several minutes he called my mom to the kitchen. About that time a nasty burning chemical smell hit the den - smelled like a burning dishrag - and we heard my mom say, "Oh good grief, James! That's PineSol!" There'd been a bottle next to the stove, so in his mind, it must have been Wesson Oil.
