How "old school" do you have to be to actually get excited about buying a new flip-phone? I'm there. Battery in my Acutel TracFone started getting weird and I picked up a new LG today at Wallace World. Still haven't bought minutes in 3 or 4 months, currently have 100 minutes in the account. Yeah, I paid a whopping $15 for the new phone! BTW, TracFone is the way to go if you don't want to pay for service you don't use.
I've personally had enough of these "athletes" using the National Anthem as a way to draw attention to themselves in "protest" of this injustice or that. Professional athletes are VERY well paid for what they do and they can afford to make their point on numerous platforms without insulting those who died in service and defense of our country. ECU's band actually had members kneeling and not playing the Anthem? They'd be on their way home, each and every one of them. The white kids raising their fists during the Anthem at the Carolina football game? Remember, there are video cameras EVERYWHERE these days kids. Keep it up. When the blowback hits, you're going to want to pretend you're surprised, otherwise the whole victim act is a waste of time.
Notice I didn't mention the falling NFL ratings in the above paragraph?
This NFL season's first quarter came to an end with everything upside down and standings are turned inside out. It's early in this marathon season and I'm not in a panic over the Carolina Panther's 1-3 start despite Cam being concussed and likely out on Monday night. I laughed out loud on Sunday watching the Cowboys and 49ers. Early in the 2nd quarter with the 49ers in front, Troy Aikman starts lamenting about "when will Tony Romo return?" If Jerry Jones would quit getting facelifts long enough to use his brain, he'd send Romo packing for whatever he can get in return for him and use all of that freed up salary cap to build a monster around Dak Prescott. And yeah, I am NOT a Cowboy fan.
Folks who have inadequate or even no insurance for their belongings and home are living a lie. If you can't afford to protect what you have, you can't afford it.
Still having a blast with the Pip Rocket. Fun, crazy cat that plays fetch and sleeps on my feet. Most mornings around 5:30 he crawls up the bed to my elbow wanting to be petted. He's went from silent kitty to very vocal kitty in the past few weeks and he's began selectively attacking rolls of paper towels, bananas, apples and assorted potatoes. Yup, we have to hide the bananas.
Pip says "hi, ya'll." Until next time, happy trails, partners!
