We're not really huge footie fans (though my boys and my brothers are ), but we'll be watching tonight, less than half an hour to kick off 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were on our honeymoon on a snorkeling trip off the coast of Waikiki. A group of 12 of us. We all started talking, where we were from and such. One couple newly married as us said they were from South Dakota. When our turn came we said we were from Youngstown Ohio The girl then responds my best friend growing up now lives in Youngstown, do you Dr. ***** I got well she knows me more than I know her she is my gynecologist. Like I was told years ago by my father, you never know who is around you where-ever you go, so never fart in public. This way no one will ever have stories to tell. Small world Good advice from my dad. Very good advice.The world is very small. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same, all right 😁 I told myself "that's the closest I'll be to a Japanese temple for now, might as well visit it" [or in Japan, since DH has been there for work 7 times, and was not in a hurry to visit again😢]. DH was more interested in the birds above ground.... Edited July 11, 2021 by dani negreanu 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a 7 inning max. No new innings after two hours. They finish the innings they are in if needed. There is a mercy rule after of 10 runs after 5 innings. Pitching is 60’ and bases are 90’. They also have strict pitching regulations, so the kids don’t premaritally injure their arms. In 2020 they added extra nights of rest between games for set pitch numbers. Owen pitched under 35 yesterday so he needs no days of rest. It goes up from there, with the highest being bracket being 81-95 pitches needing 4 days of rest before they can pitch again. Different ages have different rules. As for the time regulations, other games happen afterwards at the diamonds and it keeps games on schedule. It was a noon start yesterday for us, but all of our diamonds have lights. The next game at this field is a night game, with an 8:30 start. My son stopped playing almost 15 years ago and he had similar restrictions, he was primarily a pitcher so remember those pitch counts and trying to stay under a certain number so he could could pitch in x amount of days again. Glad to see they are thinking about the boys health. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She’d sit still for a minute. Then she’d bolt like she was barrel racing. She even climbed the tree. It was interesting to watch. Could the "other stranger cat" be slinking around Lucy? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember the couple...Ariel and something? I remember Jose and Patti who were great but their crowd was mainly the Shushing Karens who scolded you if you clapped and cheered loudly, so I lost interest in those performances. I’m not sure I ever knew the female singers name. I believe the name of the band was Great Expectations or something very close to that. She had waist length black hair and he had very long (past his shoulders) hair as well. I’ve read about Jose & Patti - not sure we ever heard them. We enjoy listening to music but don’t do many “shows”, except a few comedy here & there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The England players were not happy coming in second, they wanted the gold. If you noticed the Italian players didn't take their medals off.

They really wanted to be back in the locker room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
