I don’t particularly care for animated films, but this was fantastic. Maybe one of the best movies I’ve seen in several months. And I had dismissed Grand Turismo as another Fast and Furious-type movie. But it was more like Ford vs. Ferrari. Really well done.

This just happened to us today! We took the dog to some trails nearby. On the way home wife wants me to go by Target for a few things. We get there and she asks if we should take him in with us. I’m like “Hell no. I already think Home Depot is a no go even though it’s a common site there, but I draw the line at a place like Target.” And don’t even get me started on the rudeness of owners who don’t carry waste disposal bags any time they have their dog.

The crooked board of directors of our company hired a narcissist and small time corporate raider to become the CEO of our company. He did millions of dollars of damage to our company in three short years, but we finally ousted him and good people are back in charge.

That was one of my first observations about him was that he just isn’t very intelligent.

All of the cans had both ends cutout of them except one…the bottom can. The end of the tube was sealed by that end of the can. On the side of the can just an inch or so from the end you put a hole large enough to squirt in the lighter fluid. I remember some kids shaking the tube to try and get the lighter fluid throughout the tube and not just in the end, but I never noticed that helped.

We used to make those too. We called them tennis ball canons. You pretty much described the whole thing. Make a big tube from a bunch of cans taped together and put a hole in the bottom one. Squirt lighter fluid into the hole, put your tennis ball in the other side, and light the lighter fluid through the hole.

All he presumably was doing was trying to get some ice for those drinks. But that block of ice just wouldn't cooperate!

Can’t believe this little guy was a rescue. One of the top two dogs I’ve ever owned.

Not a fan of reality TV at all, but this one really intrigued me. I’m really interested to read about how the main character processed the whole ordeal when he was told it was fake, but the only articles I can find he just says it took a number of days to really process it all. Loved the concept of the show, but pretty hard to believe there is such a good-hearted person in the world like this guy.

As a non-technical person, someone on Reddit once explained in a way that makes sense to me as an analogy. Say you are on vacation for a week. Over the course of the week you get pretty good at going from point A to point B, and can even take small side trips along the way. But one day you get a little turned around, and you find you can’t get back to where you need to go. But if someone could pick you up and return you to your starting point, you could do just fine going about your business.

I don’t understand why, when people talk about what a dirtbag Trump is, so many people respond with, “Yeah, but person X is also a dirtbag.” Like yeah, so? That’s beside the point of this conversation. That person is also a dirtbag. Why don’t you start a thread to talk about that?

Take a look at the Media Bias Chart (adfontesmedia.com) and you can find the top quality news sources.

In my line of work, the “Bible” is the Chicago Manual of Style. It is the deciding factor of what is “right” in editing.
