Gorgeous here today. It got up to about 15 Celsius here today, with no wind. We call that shorts weather.  :coolsmiley:

The wife and I took in a high school football game- the local team vs the next town up the road rivalry. The weather was perfect for eating a burger and a soda, sitting in the stands and yelling for the Home Team, about 60 degrees with a slight breeze and sky clear as a bell with a bright moon overhead. Perfect football weather.

Went to our local HS football last night.  30 min drive to get there, rained the whole time, and was in 30's the whole time.

But, our team pulled an upset in double OT!

why in gods name would you want to see the jets play?
Toonces - Don't ask me, I just close my eyes and take it.

Gus - I use sweatpants with flannel shorts to soak up my crotch sweat.

Banzai Cat - There is no "partial credit" in grammar. Like anal sex. It's either in, or it's not.

Mirth - We learned long ago that they key isn't to outrun Star, it's to outrun Gus.

Martok - I don't know if it's possible to have an "anti-boner"...but I now have one.

Gus - Celery is vile and has no reason to exist. Like underwear on Star.

You should be thanking that storm.

Bet that's just an excuse to stay home and peruse gaming sales. Or else get his Halloween costume as Mighty Mouse ready.  ;D

I donned my Halloween costume with The Wife at a party last night. Pictures will not Be posted here.

Pouring rain and wind here today, glad I did not go to the Jets game. Looks even more miserable than usual. And now the Falcons are in the lead.

When you lose power do what I did when Irma had us down for 5 days. Have a couple of drinks, sit in front of your computer, and pretend like you're playing something really good... and winning. At the very least it will make other people in the house silently move away from you, and not bother you by telling old stories of how everybody lived like this when they were kids.  :bd:
