* #1 all-time impatient circumstance:
Getting the forgotten password/password reset email sent to your inbox. If that f'ing thing doesn't show up in less than 3 seconds, I'm livid.
* Running talk:
Masters (40+) running legend Kevin Castille busted for steroids, and given a 4-year suspension by the USADA. Grew up in Lafayette, Louisiana, ran for ULL, dropped out of college, started selling crack, then picked up running again while living in Nicholasville, and competing for John's Run Walk Shop. Or something like that.

This dude was setting world records for the 40+ (masters) division, and making the US Olympic Trials. Absolutely destroying competition for years. Cheater.
* Love reading the competitive golf talk, actually. I'm not talking about drboatman's weekend warrior/drunken long drive bs, I'm talking about actual tournament play, with money on the line.
Face it -- we're mostly 40-somethings, and the opportunity to compete at a high athletic level doesn't present itself too often anymore. So, kudos to those who continue to get after it. Man In The Arena, and all that.
* Trying to put together a Cooperstown trip. I know you can find closer airports, but right now it's looking like flying into Boston, NYC, or Philadelphia. Philly with the $42 round trip is leading the way, as all are about a 4 hour drive.
No offense to Syracuse or Albany, but.....actually, yeah. F those dirty little towns. I'll drive the extra way.
* Can you imagine being 18 years old, graduating high school, ready to fly the coop and move into the dorms....only to have your entire world shut down?
Instead of move-in day, rush week, and dorm life, you're stuck in your parents home and distance learning? Best year of your life robbed from you. F that. I can't even keep count of how many friends I still have to this day that I met one way or another my freshman year at UK. Ugh.

* Quick No Limit Soldier Poll. What do you live for:
a) weed and money?
b) bitches and blunts?
I'm gonna go with A, but it's close.

* On a Rodney Dangerfield kick lately. Lord have mercy, that dude's got an endless supply of one-liners.
my mother never breastfeed me. she told me she only like me as a friend.
when i was born, the doctor picked me up and smacked me. i found out the nurse, she got in a few good whacks, too.

* Another good day on Wall Street. I'm not as savvy as some of these investors on the Stock Advice Thread, but I see a big run up leading up to the next stimulus package, before an inevitable 2021 beatdown. That's my take, anyways.
<-- up BIG this year. Dumb luck, ftmfw.
