Thanks. 2nd time is a charm. When I clicked into the thread the first time the other day, I didn't have much interest. Perhaps my A.D.D kicked in & I was put-off by the long winded first post or maybe the "dual personality" of the OP or whatever but I don't think I read more than the first page. This time, much more enjoyable. I guess I need to be in the right frame of mind. 🙂

okay, thanks! I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing out on any juicy drama that might be happening on the main boards. 😉😇 I couldn't get into the Royal is the Worst for Missing Atlantis thread but at least the renaming of the Diamond Lounge & Merging Loyalty programs with Celebrity threads is providing some entertainment. Some people have come up with interesting scenarios given that there is almost no information given out yet. And I thought I had an over active imagination. 😄

This is a good omen for the Mets. Whenever a team fires Buck Showalter, they either win the World Series the following year (1996 Yankees, 2001 Diamondback) or at least make a deep playoff run (2010 Texas Rangers....okay, it was 3 years after the firing). Two years after being fired from the Orioles, they are looking pretty strong this year. Coincidence? Maybe. Or he installs a winning culture in the clubhouse that future teams benefit from. How does the old saying go? "Always an Empire builder but never the Emperor".

Add me to the list of people recommending "A Book of Mormon". I saw it this past August and is indeed very enjoyable. I can see one or two jokes that might offend some if they are a bit on the sensitive side but by and large, enjoyable. My neighbor recommended a new play to me called "Schucked", a musical comedy about a town trying to figure out why all their corn is dying. Plenty of Dad-type jokes so it should offend nobody. I'm going to try & see it in the next month or so. https://shuckedmusical.com/?gclsrc=ds Another new play that starts Oct 18th is call "Harmony", based on a true story of a musical group in 1920's & 30's Germany. I had received a flyer in the mail with a discount code for $69 & $99 tickets to select performances. Unfortunately, I don't see it in my pile of junk mail so it might have accidentally got thrown in the garbage. 🤬 But I'm sure a google search can find something. https://harmonyanewmusical.com/

I thought the same thing! Looks fantastic! I can see why you love traveling in it so much. Sure, it might be missing an ocean view balcony but the mountain views you've posted before are pretty nice....and you have a much better shower than a cruise ship. 🙂 And what is this clutter your speak of? It's my dream to get to that level of organization. 😄

She'll get their safely, it'll just take a long time with all the road closures. Once she gets to the other side of the Hudson River, conditions are much better. Looking at the weather map, the Hudson seems to be the dividing line, heavy rain to the east, not too much on the west side of it. My nephew is currently on his way to RI for a car show this weekend. I hope he enjoys his time in the 200 mile long parking lot, formerly known as I-95. Hopefully he packed a sandwich for the trip.

Stay dry Lenny! Plenty of flooding north of NYC as well. Once again, for the 2nd or 3rd time this year, we received a month worth of rain in a few short hours. A lot of parkways that were built in the 1920's & 1930's with names like Bronx River Parkway, Saw Mill River Parkway, etc - since they were built next to or on top of those rivers - are flooded. No surprise since water flows to where it's always been. I learned early in my driving days to avoid roads with the word "river" in the name during heavy rain storms. Fortunately, I live on high ground. No flooding in my immediate vicinity

Of course, you'd want to mention your least successful career. I haven't watched Survivor in years but from what I remember, if someone was "too successful" (i.e. lawyer, pro athlete, etc), they become an immediate target as they were deemed not worthy of winning since they didn't t need the money. I remember the season with Johnny "Fair Play" telling the story of his dead grandmother who was actually alive & healthy in order to get sympathy votes. I probably stopped watching the show shortly afterwards.

Is this what passes as "Sports" news these days? 😉 I mean, the link says CBS Sports, not CBS Entertainment http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/taylor-swift-travis-kelce-rumors-pop-star-set-to-attend-chiefs-vs-jets-on-sunday-night-per-report/ I wonder if Swifties are going to take over the parking lot hoping to get a glimpse.
