We just had a storm system roll through town that dropped 6.5" of rain in about 3 hours. Crazy.

I generally prefer to pay in first person, so that doesn't bother me, but I am curious as to why the game puts so much effort into character customization and even has a ton of different clothes your character can wear when just about the only time you can really see your character's outfit all tha...

The #Barves are screwing me over again. I sadly live in the #Barves TV region, which is broadcast through Bally Sports South. I have YTTV, which doesn't carry Bally. I have MLB.tv (which is an excellent product), but I'm blacked out on that. Bally has a streaming option with a 7 day trial. Great! Ex...

Welp, my eldest son's last day of K-12 was yesterday. Very uneventful year, as he only took 2 classes per semester and was home before noon all year.
It seems like I just dropped him off for his first day of 5K...and now he's done. Crazy.

Speaking of terrible parking, I entered a crowded parking lot tonight (Memorial Day Weekend in Myrtle Beach n'at) and saw a minivan perfectly centered in two spaces. I parked next to it in an adjoining space. When I got out of my car, I noticed it was a mobility van with a handicap placard on the wi...

Again, I found myself in down a wormhole with truck prices. A local Chevy dealership has one non-crewcab RWD Silverado 1500. It's the W/T trim level, which literally means work truck. Vinyl seats, rubber flooring, small tires. $38K. Like **** off. That truck was $18K ten years ago. https://www.palme...

What is it called when a gas station chain advertises one price in the morning and it mysteriously rises by 28 cents for afternoon rush hour? These stations (Circle K) seem to do this a lot here. The other stations prices stayed basically the same.

I read, but couldn't confirm, that it was a 1979 (pre-embargo) Bell helicopter. Why they would have their president flying in a 45 year old helicopter without a secure replacement parts supply chain in place doesn't make much sense. Why not get a Russian or French helicopter?

Bubba Chandler to the 7 day injured list down in Altoona, due to forearm tightness. Ugh. Hopefully TJ surgery won't follow.
