    OT: Water Heater

    Don't minimize the possibility that your existing HWH could go when you are not home for several days/weeks. Would be an absolute disaster. We were in a similar boat as you are currently and we bit the bullet and changed it preemptively.

    OT: R.I.P. - Wilbur Wood Age 84

    RIP Wilber, but did you Consider RA Dickie as the last great knuckleballer? He did win a Cy Young in 2012. Neither were Hall of Famers, but had nice careers.

    OT: 30 Year Anniversary Of The Blizzard Of 96

With the drifts, it was entirely covered to the point where you would not know there was a car under there except for a 1-2" portion of the passenger door. Really cool until I had to dig it out. (Driving that thing in the...

    LOL, a young me learned a lot about sports betting from Dave. As a kid I used to love reading his NFL picks in the S-L on Sunday mornings. They used to do a 2-,3- and 4-game teaser bet where you could move the line up to 16 points, I thought this was easy money. (Fortunately I had no money to bet.)

    OT: Best Jersey Shore Places for Drinks/Food

    Exactly. We were there every Friday & Saturday night in the early 1990's for Paul Cilinski (RIP), and sometimes Sunday afternoons for Joe Finn (RIP). You also made me think of this SNFU classic:

    Just arrived from Zurich into EWR at 1:00pm this afternoon, right on time if not a bit early. With Global Entry and carry on only, we were at the Uber stand in 20 minutes. No issues whatsoever.

    OT: Favorite Bingeable/ Weekly Show Right Now…

    There is a new series that I am looking forward to watching over the break on Hulu called "Say Nothing" about The Troubles in Northern Ireland. It is based on a book by the same name that happens to be my favorite book in the past decade. If you want to go back a bit (2008), there is a 7-part...

    OT: One Word You Were Never Comfortable With

    I had a boss that always pronounced it pri-or-it-tor-ize. Never knew where that extra syllable came from.
