I am so happy that I still get to make @BernieParent's pick, even if it is six hours late :laugh:

"For Team Apple, the owners of the Halifax Galleons will dive back into Scripture and select The Apple of God's Eye.
Keep me as the apple of the eye; Hide me in the shadow of Your wings (Psalm 17:8)
For thus says the Lord of hosts, “After glory He has sent me against the nations which plunder you, for he who touches you, touches the apple of His eye. (Zechariah 2:8)
"It is an odd yet beautiful idiom that refers to the pupil at its most basic definition, but, as these passages speak to, is something or someone of greatest worth to the beholder."


@Hollywood Cannon pick two.

Apologies, all. I should have indicated that my previous post was a.limited-time offer. :( And thank you, @Captain Dave Poulin!

"Hey, I just met you, this is f***ing crazy, but here's a number, so call a baby."

We start the day with my brother @Hollywood Cannon on the clock with a pair (phrasing), @BernieParent on deck, GKJ on the lido deck, and Striiker on the lido afterdeck. @Strawberry Fields can make up his pick whenever he is ready.

I watched "Top Gun: Maverick" on Friday night. Guess what? Tom Cruise has a bad case of the Jon Bon Jovis - he can't stop smiling with all his f***ing teeth and his whole f***ing face. It's really irritating, and not just for the resemblance to that massive c***. The movie itself is full of member berries, obviously, but aside from the massively cringe piano scene, it isn't as bad as The Palpatines and Their Galactic Friends, only because the dumb nostalgia is part of a storyline which calls back to the original through Goose's son. I'm not trying to make excuses for the movie - it's decent as popcorn fare, but ultimately quite stupid, and the secondary characters may as well be cardboard cutouts, except for the fact that they are barely even two-dimensional.

The one poignant thing is the Val Kilmer scene. I didn't actually find it hard to watch, because they handle it very well. It doesn't feel like a gimmick - it feels like a tribute, which is how it should be.

Enjoy your Monday, and for Jobu's sake, call a f***ing baby.

I just want you to know I was at the John Bon Jovi rest stop the other day.

Well naturally we have to select as our Official Team Slow Dance Song the song that HCette and I had as our first dance at our wedding.

So we're going to select "I Don't Dance" by Lee Brice.

Yeah, yeah, country, I know.



Up next we have Team Children's Toy and i'll be honest, I don't wanna rush this one so I gotta think a little bit.

@BernieParent you can carry us on towards the end of the phase.

"For our Team Refrigerator Magnet, the owners of the Halifax Galleons first looked for the funny, were only mildly amused, and then resorted to the practical. One that we use often in our cooking is the Refrigerator Magnet Timer.

"Pro tip: Refrigerator Magnet Timers become less useful each time they fall off the refrigerator."

Timer to make your last pick, @GKJ.

Milord's Team Energy Drink would be dung jello, for sure. Especially because it's not a drink.

We start the day with @Chuck Downie on the clock, me on deck, @Asnito on the lido deck, and mja on the lido afterdeck. @Strawberry Fields can make up his two picks when he gets back on.

You should see this massive old tree that fell down, and this other massive old tree that we had cut down. I'll try to get pics sometime on my iPhone 5S. This pair of trashbag country f***s cut the one tree down and were supposed to haul the wood away, but they said they could only haul part of the wood away for some reason, which means that now I have to do it. Which is just f***ing great.

I was so desperately tempted to choose Seijin no Hi, Japan's Coming of Age Day, but I couldn't figure out a way to convince you that it wasn't creepy. It's obviously not creepy to consider love and admiration of young ladies and whatnot, but there are a lot of prudes in the world, so I'll go a slightly different direction. Because of the prudes.

"Observed every November 3, Culture Day is for honoring the Japanese culture and promoting the love of freedom and peace. This holiday is dedicated to the arts in Japan. The core of the holiday revolves around 'freedom,' 'peace,' and 'culture,' which were derived from the Japanese constitution adopted after World War II. Created on November 3, 1946 and first celebrated in 1948, Bunka no Hi commemorates the declaration of sovereignty, peace, and pacifism in Japan. It was birthed by the country’s commitment to cultural prosperity. Additionally, November 3 is the birthday of Emperor Meiji. During Bunka no Hi, numerous art exhibitions, parades, and ceremonies are held all over Japan."

If you think about it, you can still mack on the ladies on Culture Day. A classic win-win.
