    “ Wolf “ in the backyard this AM

    I hear them once or twice a year in the wooded hill below my house north of Pittsburgh. Google tells me my 4ft fence is not sufficient so I should apparently prepare to lose a Boston Terrier or two or expect a Coyote through the doggy door. My back yard is more lighted than most in the...

    Tesla - exited short sale

    I bought TSLA early at 25 and cashed out at 90. Definitely got out too soon and had to stop watching the stock entirely for a while as it skyrocketed but still a nice return.

    Anybody have any experience with the "gentle-leader" dog walking device?

    It made a huge difference on our Boston Terriers. Years later, one still tries to rub her face on the grass to get it off, but she doesn't pull.

    AKB: Things to see and do in Napa....

    We did Napa for our 10th last year. I went repeat what many others have mentioned, but doing Sterling right after the Castle tour and tasting seemed like quite a letdown. Maybe Sterling would've been better first. Napa Valley Bike Tour was great as well. We did full day tour. Half day...

    OT. Game of Thrones or Avengers. Which one have you been waiting for?

    You will get an ending. It may be distastefully bittersweet, but you will get an ending. They know George's ending (at least what he thought it was around 2015).

    OT. Game of Thrones or Avengers. Which one have you been waiting for?

    Thrones. Love it and can't believe it's almost over. I also love that the book vs show factions have essentially merged (and book fans may never actually get an ending). I liked many Marvel/DC films but have since been numbed by comic book movie overload.

    Glov on suicide watch. UNC eliminated.

    No matter the sport, nothing quite kills the mood like a knee injury. Hope the kid is alright.

    Kia vs Hyundai

    We had a nightmare lemon experience with Kia on a 2013 Sorento. The issue was an extreme safety issue where they attempted a few fixes (replaced transmission, replaced computer) then pretty much told us tough luck. The vehicle was towed to them twice, driven in to them twice, and there were...

    OT What is the nicest thing you have ever done?

    My wife was in a car accident while pregnant with our second child and had a concussion and amnesia to the point where she remembered some general historical facts about our life but did not remember any recent real memories, including the fact that she was pregnant. Her memory also seemed to...

    What temp do you keep your thermostat set?

    Scheduled timings vary by day: 69 during the day (if present) 64 at night 65 during the day when we're gone (would do lower if not for dogs)

    Most recent original Christmas hit that comes to mind? *

    My friend from high school plays in her band (won't mention which instrument). I've played with him a few times since over holidays if we're both back home. It's cool seeing him on all the late night shows. She has a music video with Willie Nelson that he's in frequently.

    2019 Recruiting Class Thread

    I'm not a recruiting ranking conspiracy theorist, but I think it's a testament to Harrison's talent that he's remained so highly ranked while giving absolutely no interviews or info to the recruiting sites.

    OT: Poorest town in each state...in PA, it's

    When people hear I am originally from Johnstown and they react with "oh I once went to Johnstown for...", my response is simply "I'm sorry". That sums it up. I saw an older cousin die from OD and I had career ambitions in fields which would not be remotely possible in that area so there was...

    ACC CHAMPIONSHIP GAME LOWEST VIEWING AUDIENCE OF ANY P5

    I'll admit I watched more of the ACC than B10 game. Once I realized it was realistically possible that a P5 school could finish with less than 10 yards of passing in a game, it was fascinating to watch.

    This article, about a little girl named Abcde is horribly funny

    I had a tax guy one year in New York named Richard Weiner. His parents really doubled down. I picked him from the tax firm's website because he specialized in multi-state taxes, had a PSU degree, and of course because of the name. I couldn't NOT pick him.

    Not to be forgotten - 2 for 2 in field goals today

    I'm in the 'a win is a win crowd' so not negative at all tonight. Just not in the 'participation trophy' crowd.

    Get your transfer here...

    No because a cancer needs live cells to multiply and Rutgers football has no pulse.

    "test message of emergency system?"

    I was in a room with around 15 others on the same corporate VZW plan, some with the same phone as me. I was the only one in the room not to get it.
