2024 Pirates Season Thread
Exactly how last year started. Good thing is there’s an ace up the Pirates’ sleeve that should add to the rotation in a couple months

Pine Creek looking close to flooding Route 8We got into the arena right before the heavy stuff started coming down. Was surprised to make it home with minimal issue considering Pine Creek floods easily.

Well, the other shoe finally dropped at work. They announced today that they are planning on closing our plant and moving production to New York. Timeline gives us 18 months to find new work so it could certainly be worse. At the moment they’re saying product engineering is one of the few departmen...

Will check this out too, thanksSon of the Revolution is the book that started my interest in Chinese culture especially under Mao. If you're reading more of a history but want more the feeling of living in the society I highly recommend this biography

Reading a book on the Cultural Revolution in China. I may quit this one. It’s too hard for me to keep up with all the characters. Don’t know if it’s just me but foreign names are tough to keep track of since they are not common names to me. For some reason my brain doesn’t associate a face to them ...

I’m actually not a big fan of the keyless start/stop in vehicles. C2i’s example is one reason, the other being that my wife or I will leave the key fob in our jacket and forget to leave it in the car when we get home. So the next time one of us goes to drive the car, we have to search around for the...

Saw the full eclipse in Pymatuning just before the clouds arrived. Also felt the full brunt of that I-79 traffic. Sucked ass but it was worth it.

mikey's Thread of Penguin Randomness
Sports like football and hockey tend to allow comebacks more than others due to the prevent offense teams go into. Baseball and basketball you pretty much are forced to continue to try on offense. It’s why I enjoyed the 2016 Cup run so much. The Penguins just kept their foot on the necks of their op...

MWB has the right take. I enjoy manuals as long as I’m not sitting in traffic every day. If you have one long enough, there’s no thought to the process, it becomes second nature.

My wife and I were looking for something different the other day and started Cheers from the beginning. Man, that show started out in stride. Most times you revisit (or for my wife start) older sitcoms like that it takes a while for everything to click, but Cheers was funny from the start while sti...
