One of the wonderful things about tWBS is that he would notice when we had a gap in posts and quickly fill it (Zombie Phrasing!) with a short post to get the conversation going.
Overnight, there were some news coming out of Australia about AFL. The Round Six schedule was announced and it was also announced that starting in Round 7, there would be a Western Australia hub created with the Collingwood Magpies and Geelong Cats traveling to Perth and staying there for 3 weeks.
This comes on the heels of an announcement out of Essendon that the positive test that forced the postponement of the Carlton-Melbourne game last weekend could have been a false positive.
In North American news, Major League Baseball decided they would play a 60 game season with no fans despite the union not agreeing to terms. The season starts in July.
Is that 200 words?

LET’S GO!!!
Wait, not yet?
Ok, let me ramble on for a bit more. Both the Premier League and La Liga have games on today starting at 10 AM Pacific. The showcase game for La Liga is Real Madrid hosting Mallorca with the Galácticos needing to win to stay in first place after Barcelona beat Bilbao yesterday.
Meanwhile, Liverpool can clinch the title with a victory over Crystal Palace this afternoon.
Balls somehow lost his bio and didn't realize it. He's now scrambling to write something clever and failing. He likes butts, boobs, most things that start with the letter B, and writing in the Second Person. Geelong, Toluca, Barcelona, and Steelers, in that order.
I think the same story is gonna be told in a number of other states that opened back up too early. Unfortunately, state borders or political persuasions won’t prevent the spread of radiation and fallout (see also On The Beach), so there’s not much point in carrying out the option you propose. Like in the book/movie I just mentioned, we’re all gonna die, many of us prematurely.
Are we doing bad 80’s haircuts again? Okay, why doesn’t the xylophone-playing girlycake never get any grief for her ‘mohawk disguised as a mini poodle hiding in a shag carpet’ hairtrosity?
Fun fact: she and the lead singer are a long-time married couple and have a sheep farm in New Zealand. Okay, that’s not “fun” so much as it is “sheepish.”
Apparently NYC is painting “Black Lives Matter” on the street in front of Trump Tower. That is nice, but would be even more fun would be to rename the street after on of the Exonerated / Central Park Five. I’m thinking “Yusef Salaam” would be the best name for Mango to see every time he opens his mail.
Just took my first drink of the prep solution for tomorrow’s exciting edition of “Let’s See What’s In Horatio’s Colon”. Now to drink 32 oz. of water, sit back, and see what happens.
I spotted a continuity error in Season 3, episode 3 of Bordertown. I’m calling the Finnish embassy here in Canada. And no, I’m not over-invested in the series. smgdh
If I were to purchase a Drive-In Movie thingy the first doubleheader would be Dr. Giggles and Darkman. “LARRY DRAKE MUST HAVE HIS TIME IN THE SUN!” the sign at the entrance would read.

You could wear a Cobra Commander style mask and when they start calling you out on that, just say something about only feeling comfortable with it on since the fire. If they ask questions, tell them you don’t want to talk about it and say you will go to HR if no one drops the matter.
People were using big files and inserting them for their backgrounds and the bandwidth it took trashed the meeting. I am a bit miffed I didn’t have a part in that with a huge GF or something.
I combed my hair, put on a shirt, shaved, brushed my teeth, and put on cologne for today’s Webex staff meeting, only to look closer at the invite to see it was phonecon-only this week.
It’s possible I still have a few unpaid ones from the mid 80’s. I usually took the ferry from Bainbridge and walked but I swear every time I drove in that city I got a ticket.
cool story, bro;
To be fair I’ve been on a lot and still sometimes leave the meeting tab open. Difference is I am on a separate phone and have no camera. We were on on and the guy was sharing his screen, but not the specific application, like one should, he had two job search sites up in the background and two levels of his bosses were on the call,
I haven’t had a piss test for almost 25 years, when I was working for an environmental consultant. Never have had one ever since going to work for the government. I guess they figure in certain fields like mine it doesn’t matter if you get high at home at night, because even if you fuck up, it only costs money, not lives like if you were a locomotive engineer or airline pilot or bus driver.

Time for the Alien Probe.
I’n not saying that I want for Jack Del Rio to get CTE, I’m just saying that he can go ahead and fuck off and die in a fire.
Can he haz COVID-19 too?
Anybody else’s sideburns the exact same size and shape of their headphones?

No? Okay…… mine aren’t either ’cause that would be fucking weird.

Nuke Texas from orbit. Only way to be sure.

Right, but if we nuke TX, the prevailing winds/jet stream will wipe out LA, MS, AL, GA, and FL. Who’s against this?

I did already. And I did a joke thingy above.
Shriveled thingy. Those guys don’t even have capability on the hair thing now.
Although quality recording and sound equipment is relatively less expensive now, so that keeps some of them younger.
I’ll just say it-the back end of this thread is an edited* mess.

I’m thinking “Yusef Salaam” would be the best name for Mango to see every time he opens his mail.
His greatest dilemma: Vanky starts wearing a Black Lives Matter negligee.
Like Trump reads his mail.
Or anything, really.
Unless it’s about him, as I understand it.

First prep drink? Not much…Later? This (with rainbow in my experience):

sit back, and see what happens.
What, they didn’t tell you ahead of time? Trust me on this, don’t go for a walk.
Put some big books in your bathroom, maybe even a TV. You’re going to be in there all night.

I’ve seen this movie! It’s not good.
By not good you mean great in a not good way.

Got called out for never using my camera on conf calls. I blamed it on my grunge band hair cut.

I like this plan.
Mine. “I don’t have the hardware installed at my home office.”

Make Some More Dick Jokes…
Okay, let’s see. Naomi Rao, Kellyanne Conway, and Tokamak Lahren walk into a bar…
The commentator right after the game.
“He seemed disinterested at times, but overall, Martial had a good game.”
Disinterested and just a good game? Martial scored a fucking hatrick and was constantly on the ball.
But where’s the love, man? Where’s the love!?
Tony Martial lazily scores a hatrick!
That’s the first hatrick Manchester United has recorded since 2013.
Who’s playing today?
Footy Manager would have called the first Toffee half “a damp squib of a spectacle” but fortunately Don Carlo is doing the halftime talks.
COYB!!!!!
We now know where certain DFOers park.
It’s possible I still have a few unpaid ones from the mid 80’s. I usually took the ferry from Bainbridge and walked but I swear every time I drove in that city I got a ticket.
Thoughts on the Reds vs Sheffield United match:
Tony Martial, he came from France,
English press said he had no chance,
50 million down the drain,
Tony Martial scores again!
Of course y’all fix your shit in a match I don’t bet upon.
Ole is finally using his brain and starting his best XI.
Something that is helpful for you: United has a mole and is leaking the Starting XI at least 12-18 hours before each match.
Ole was such a good mate of mine on Footy Manager that I have a hard time being objective back in reality.
Never bet on United again. ?
*Certain* folks erection material.

To be fair; I’ve done this same thing, but was so drunk it took me a while to locate the whiskey glass right in front of me.
2 conference meetings coming, weird my camera isn’t working again……
Didya see the video that Moose posted last night with the dude grabbing a box of hankies and lube while on Zoom?
His body was READY!

It’s 11am and I need a drink already. That Dark and stormy up there is awfully tempting
It’s 11 AM somewhere

I need one too, but can easily quit when I want.
