    I know she's on death row, but they really need to speed up the process. And, I'm not even a proponent of death sentences! That ***** is pure evil.

    House of the Dragon

    Three way fight (maybe four) for the throne still. Daemond, Aegon, Rhaenyra, and maybe Helaena (as she is w/ Alicent and has a claim as well). I hope the rest of the season's episodes are all just as good!

    Your Biggest "Coincidence"

    Used to live in a suburb of Richmond, VA. We had just built a home and the neighbors behind us were great and our age, he was a road-warrior for Johnson & Johnson and just an all-around great guy. Well, as J&J tends to do, they got moved to PA and we lost touch. From VA, we then move to GA...

    Kids leaving the nest - how to cope?

    You're in the early stages. There will still be times when he comes home, but they become less and less frequent. Enjoy them all. My girls are 27 now, both living in Austin while we are now in Chicagoland since last Summer. One of my girls used to refer to me as her best friend, even after...

    *** Cyclone Fanatic Fast Food Tournament Sweet 16 ***

    I remember the one in Ames 50 years ago, where you had to phone in your order from the booth. I remember back then there was the Papa Bear, Mama Bear, and Baby Bear burgers (or something along those lines). There's one just around the corner from my office. Maybe I need to head over for lunch...

    No Cane's, McD's, No Taco Bell, Shake Shack, Wing Stop, Chipotle? But somehow A&W made it in for consideration?

    Favorite part of ISU campus

    A couple of favorite memories from Freshman Year was Old Botany (closed at the time) and the massive tree in front of it with low, ground-level branches, affectionately called the Shroom Tree. We used to climb onto the roof of Old Bot while on shrooms and also sit in the shroom tree on shrooms...

    The last episode of season 2 does kind of make it feel like they wrapped it up, but it was still a good season.

    I don't recall who specifically brought attention to Project Hail Mary on here, but HOLY SH!T what a phenomenal movie!!! This is why I love this thread! BTW - if you're old like me (58) we finished season 2 of Four Seasons on Netflix. Quick episodes, pretty decent. Clearly aimed at old people...

    Speaking of Handmaid's Tale... we just finished watching The Testaments on Hulu last night which is the spinoff of Handmaids. It was actually pretty good. Not quite as anguishing as Handmaids, but it pushed the story forward really well.

    How is this any different than people saying "xxxxxxxx movie is a MUST SEE! It's amazing!"? "... as if their opinion will be the same as everyone else's."

    If you saw funny clips you saw all the highlights. Just stop at those.

    If you haven't watched the Kevin Hart roast on Netflix... don't. It was just bad. I wanted to like it but it was just bad.
