I regret stopping at The Secret of Skull Mountain from 1948.

Jeesh 10 day forecast looks like that of a rain forest. Enjoy tomorrow and Monday (60 and sunny) if you can otherwise prepare to take lots of vitamin D and wear your rain bonnets...

They're sleeping and I don't want to go near them and risk waking them.

I'll happily risk burning to death in exchange for silence.

"9-1-1. What's your emergency?"

"My house is on fire."

"I am dispatching the fire department right away."

"Please tell them not to use their sirens."

Enjoying this morning despite the rain drinking my cappucino and listening to John DaBella interviewing Cataldi on NPR....

scene and vids from I-80 are wild and the fact they are calling for 12 feet of snow in 48 hours is insane

They recorded a 190 mph wind gust at Palisades this morning

No to snow ...yes to daylight savings

Philadelphia snow forecast: Possible snow for next weekend in time for clock change

It may be the start of "meteorological" spring, but don't think we're done with snow just yet.

Alright fan girls, Sam Ersson is at the South St. Whole Foods right now.

Turned around while in line and Owen Tippett was standing right behind me.

I don’t think even the US Military could draw up a better method of torture than this.

Haha yep. I remember my brother and I would end up with a stack of coupons each time we'd go to the store. Then I think we'd just hide the stack behind some random product in some random isle

Depends on your budget and need. That motherboard seems good and the PSU is ok but everything else pretty outdated. If you are on a tight budget, you might consider getting a (used) Ryzen 3600 or maybe Ryzen 5600 CPU. Just make sure you have the most recent BIOS version and that it supports the newer CPU. For the GPU a lower to mid-tier card like Nvidia RTX 3060/4060 would be good pairing with those CPUs. Upgrading the RAM to 2x16GB DDR4/3600 wouldn't hurt either.

Meta went "BOOM!"

@LegionOfDoom91 We finally have a way to explain to non-CFB fans how awful TAMU is. They just had to make a penny more a pepper.

Dropkick Murphys tonight in Lancaster. Saw them 5 years ago. What a great show that was.

One German man has redefined “man on a mission.” A 62-year-old from Magdeburg deliberately got 217 Covid-19 vaccine shots in the span of 29 months, according to a new study, going against national vaccine recommendations. That’s an average of one jab every four days.

Bill Gates must be confused why the satellite tracker shows 217 people at this guys house all the time...
