My only wish is that he never suffers thought a playoff drought of more than two seasons. Congratulations. My first is 9 months old. The first few weeks are rough. I hope you are making it through ok and trying to enjoy it best you can. It gets better. After 2-3 months you will have settled into a routine of sorts and you’ll notice a big difference. Its the most difficult and wonderful thing I’ve ever experienced. Edited June 7, 2022 by Curt 2 4 1 Quote

It sucks a bit with the formula shortage, but the rotation has helped here a ton. On that note, I'm convinced that my 5 month old is the biggest baby his age in all of North Carolina, weighed in at 20.5 pounds today. 1 2 Quote

Wyldnwoody44 Posted June 9, 2022 Report Posted June 9, 2022 Driving on the left is a challenge for the first day or so. Today I rented a manual for the first time and drove the Cotswolds. It's weird having to use your left hand to play with your stick 😜 The country lanes are very very narrow. But amazingly fun to drive on. This place is crazy beautiful, and I want to live here. I could live on Tunnocks caramel wafers, tea cakes and wine gums. 1 1 Quote

It's hard to tell it's even your own hand. The English countryside is stunningly beautiful. Are you in London, or touring around? Quote

Brighton, Hastings, rye, Bath and then 2 days in Paris taking the train under the English Channel. I rented a car for 2 day here to see the Cotswold area as it's the easiest way to do so. Renting from Bath allowed me to avoid driving in city traffic 🙂 1 Quote

Wyldnwoody44 Posted June 14, 2022 Report Posted June 14, 2022 @Sabres Fan in NS I have survived! Also, London is 30000% better than Paris. To start, it doesn't smell like urine. 2 Quote

To start, it doesn't smell like urine. Awesome!! Glad to see some things never change. Although Paris is slightly higher on my list of fantastic cities than London. Paris in spring is special. That urine smell is mostly near the river and one gets used to it in no time. When in Rome also applies to Paris ... so piss any place you like. Quote

Doohicksie Posted June 17, 2022 Report Posted June 17, 2022 On 6/9/2022 at 7:20 PM, Doohickie said: So my older son, who's working on a degree in video/broadcasting, has a job lead at a local* television station. Someone he's been in class with works there and told him about the position. It would be working in the control room. My son said, "I haven't taken that class yet." His friend replied, "It doesn't matter; if they like you, they'll train you." *In this case, local means in Dallas. He'd have to drive to downtown Ft Worth (about 15 minute drive), then ride the train for an hour. It so happens that it's a Spanish language station, but his friend said that doesn't matter that my son doesn't speak Spanish. This isn't awesome thread material.... at least not until he gets an interview. On 6/9/2022 at 10:02 PM, Doohickie said: Oh it'll be in the awesome thread if he actually gets the job. The awesome part is his enthusiasm. He's gone to college three or four times; this is the first time that he actually likes the subject matter. He got the job! 3 4 2 Quote
