I had A smokin hot gal in my EMT class YEARS ago and one of my City firefighter buddies swore he knew her from somewhere. After a couple weeks it came to him, it was from a bachelors party that her and her friend performed at for the guys. Well Bloomington only had two clubs at the time so I went into Private detective mode and did some reserch and found her.... Did I say SMOKIN HOT. I got a private dance and we talked about class. 

We became lab partners. Even though it was pre covid, I just always made sure to wear my Personal Protective Equipment when we would hang out some evening.

PPE….so that’s what you kids are calling them nowadays…

From COVID to strippers….my work here is done.

Devine Redding comes to mind. Least talented dude I can remember with back to back 1K seasons. Not meant to be a knock on him.. OLs were gooood. 

Redding was the classic Jack of all trades, master of none. Wasn’t lightning fast, wasn’t punishing between the tackles….didn’t do any one thing really well, but was well rounded enough to stay on the field to rack up carries.

On the surface, it seems reasonable. If you dive deeper, there can be all sorts of issues. Are the majority of these people based in a certain city or state and likely to lean one way? What if you have far left balanced by moderate right? An independent who habitually leans left? Was the methodology created to appear neutral yet hide bias? Make certain outlets appear a certain way? 

It reminds me of an advertising technique. Let's say you Google best vacuums and the first ad comes up and promotes a certain brand yet the seemingly objective review is paid for by that brand. 

In today's day and age, you can't take anything at face value. 

That’s also why you use ad blockers.

Thank God I only got dollar dances a few times. 

Had a pentecostal friend that went down the rabbit hole and racked up some credit card debt. 

I was talking about hitting her up for some off the books action, but that’s also good advice. Treat strip clubs like casinos: only bring cash, and when it’s gone, it’s gone.

I know it was against the Colts no idea who caught it.

I can vaguely remember watching this game. Was either a Sunday or Monday nighter. Just two blind guesses….either OJ McDuffie or Bernie Parmalee.

I don’t think I ever talked to her much After that…I was so shy when I first got to college…I didn’t even know that was really a thing people did. Just thought only desperate people did that…not some girl in my English class lol. 

Meanwhile, older wiser you wants to go back and stooge-slap younger you and say “Dude….she gets paid to take her clothes off….MCFLY….HELLO!!!”

I think I'd be fine with a small or average size city, but I don't know how people can manage in New York City, Chicago, or Los Angeles. If I were in your shoes, I would have wanted out a long time ago lol. I have always wanted to do a trip to the northeast and go through Vermont. Too cold for me to want to live in, but seems like a really nice state.

The larger cities offer closer proximity to pretty much anything, so long as you’re within the urban hub. It’s entirely possible to live in Chicago or NYC without a car. A lot of “regional” cities can’t really say that. Some can, but they’re in the minority.

True story. I knew a girl across our college apartment balcony that needed a ride to work. Her car broke down. She was cute but honestly I liked her roommate so I offered to give her a ride to work. She told me where to go and I was shocked when we arrived at a strip club. Super nice girl. Just paying for college. I do remember she had no problem paying for her car to get fixed the next day 😂 

Bet she paid the bill in singles.

LOL   To be fair...now days there are a lot of women "going to work" from home that never put on any clothes to begin with.....or removing them IS their job lol.

Help support “college students”….visit your local strip club today.

Here is something I found hilarious...yet kind of sad in a way. So I was checking on my fantasy football team and reading the message boards about one of my players Antonio Brown. So he plays for Tampa Bay a team that is all vaccinated. All staff...all support staff....all players...including Brown. So he tested positive for Covid. The message board was in utter disbelief and shock (also dismay that they couldn't play their star receiver). Most replying they didn't even know that was even possible. Others upset saying why did I get vaccinated...I felt lied to knowing it won't keep me from getting covid. Just on and on with similar expressions lol. It's just weird to see so many people so uninformed about Covid and that they blindly took a vaccine not knowing what it would do and how it could or might protect them. Anyways...I shouldn't be surprised about the ignorance around COVID...it's on BOTH SIDES obviously but man so crazy that many people are only being informed because a vaccinated football player got covid lol. 

What surprises me is that people act like  vaccines not being 100% effective is a new thing. Flu vaccines have never been 100% effective….nowhere close in fact. Yet I’d venture to guess that most of the people questioning the COVID vaccine have had a flu shot at least once in their life. 
 

Rebuttal 1 would be “But those have been around a lot longer”. Yes, and the formulation changes every year. Every flu shot you’ve ever had is different. There isn’t years of testing done on this years’ flu vaccine formulation. 

This is my whacked out plan, should I ever hit the Powerball jackpot: 

- “Primary” residence of some broom closet in Texas or Florida for income tax purposes

- Residence 1: San Diego. Best damn weather in the country most of the year. 
-Residence 2: Atlantic coast of Maine. New England autumns are gorgeous, and I’ll need a place to get away when I’m sick of Californians. 🤣

- Residence 3: Town home in downtown Boston. Place to stay when I’m in town dealing with financial matters. 
- Residence 4: 20 acres in BFE, Midwest. For when I’m sick of dealing with everyone. 

Completely reasonable, I think.

There once was a lad named Brad

Who was both mad and bad

He said he was done

The game was no longer fun

No one cared, not even a tad

Brad’s claim that he’s done is absurd

We know he’ll be back before the down marker hits 3rd

He may strive for redemption

but without intervention

he’ll prove once again, he’s a turd

You’re right. I think I was thinking “the last” .400 season and mistyped.

Displaced Mormons. Another great name for a band

I knew of a “band” that called themselves the Mormon Mafia. 
 

And by “band”, I mean a group of guys that would get together in a garage, smoke weed and occasionally make noise with instruments.
