I'm not a Giants fan but am interested in what they do at #6.
jerryskids replied to seafoam1's topic in The Geek Club
That seems like a fixable problem to me. It's not like a golf pro changing his swing, or a QB his throwing motion, or a MLB pitcher adding a pitch. All of those are extremely fine-tuned, deeply-ingrained muscle memory items. This strikes me as: yo dood, catch the ball with your hands. -
Trump's bond gets lowered by nearly $300 million. - Latitia's head explodes

Not in Cali anyway, once the minimum wage goes up to fitty dollars an hour. -

They took Johnston in the 1st last year; are they giving up on him already? I took a flyer on him in one of my fantasy leagues (IBL) and he... certainly underperformed. -

Mocks I've seen have the Chargers taking an OT. If the Cards stay at #4, no way does Harrison make it to #6. -
Key Bridge in Baltimore struck by ship-collapses

I wouldn't bet against you. Maybe they'll name it after whoever wrote the black national anthem? -
Mexican president says the 'flow of migrants will continue' unless the US meets his demands
jerryskids replied to seafoam1's topic in The Geek Club
Yep. What he said is certainly a major factor. And the Left absolutely hates any statement that prioritizes family and traditions over government and hedonism. -

I think it is Singapore registered, but not necessarily a Singapore based crew. I could be wrong tho. -
Why are MAGAturds so whiny about wind energy?
jerryskids replied to Pimpadeaux's topic in The Geek Club
Those windmills in Palm Springs look like a War of the Worlds alien invasion. Also they never seem to be spinning much when I've driven past them. -

The video that RLLD posted on page 1 indicated that the port anchor had been dropped. It seems that what they tried to do to avoid an accident actually steered the ship right into the bridge. -

All the talk here is that the Cards will take Harrison if he is there. If he isn't, that means one of the top 3 teams took him instead of a QB, so that QB would still be available, and I would expect the Cards to trade out. My dream scenario is that this happens, they trade down to say the Giants for a bunch of picks, then get Nabers or Odunze (if they really covet a WR). -
Will biden be able to have a 3 day weekend again this week?
jerryskids replied to Engorgeous George's topic in The Geek Club
Fair. I was thinking of the immediate search and rescue, although as I think of it, that will probably involve fed resources as well. -

Heard about the Baltimore Bridge, that sounds pretty bad. Not sure that's something for Biden to deal with, tho. -

jerryskids replied to seafoam1's topic in The Geek Club
Yeah, not at all... and I'm comfortable being liked by the folks here who like me. I can't imagine why anyone would like you, but perhaps they are watching a different movie in which posting the same videos thousands of times is entertaining. Carry on. -

No response to "English"? Also, I haven't defended anything, you stupid twat. Maybe you can post the video again, that might make for good chat board discussion. -

jerryskids replied to Pimpadeaux's topic in The Geek Club
Renewables like wind and solar are nice auxiliary sources, but I doubt they'll ever drive grids as a primary source on any consistent scale. -

jerryskids replied to seafoam1's topic in The Geek Club
I didn't respond to you, idiot. And in the past I've tried to kindly guide you in how to not be so insufferable on this board, and rather to have constructive conversations. But you have proven time and again that you are the worst poster who has ever consistently posted here, and that is quite an accomplishment. I honestly wonder how your brain reminds you to breathe, you are so mindless. I would type more to defend these statements, but it is a waste of time, because you are just going to copy this and replace my comments with some stupid, insipid attempt at a gotcha, which will not be funny and will have everyone here (who hasn't put you on ignore) wish that they had. May God have mercy on your internet soul. -

jerryskids replied to seafoam1's topic in The Geek Club
Amen. Seafoam spammed the board all weekend with the same videos again and again and again in every thread; now he is starting threads dedicated to them. I have no idea what he is trying to accomplish with this spam. Is he hoping to convince someone with the 927343829th posting of this video who wasn't convinced with the 927343828th? It's hard to tell how his mind works. What is clear, however, is that he lacks the basic ability to have a constructive conversation on a message board. -
What is the healthiest thing you do? Physical well-being wise
jerryskids replied to naomi's topic in The Geek Club
I generally try to be good in the major factors of good health: Diet: don't eat out much, wife is a great cook who loves to cook from scratch. Generally lower carb but not overly so. Lots of fish, usually at least two veggies at dinner (and leftovers at lunch). High fiber, low carb (other than fiber) granola with yogurt and fruit for breakfast. Some eggs. I also try to drink lots of water, a habit to stay hydrated I started during chemo years ago. Exercise: most days. I just came back from a 20 minute shoot around at the local park. I run down, shoot hoops at a high intensity, run back. Manage to keep my heart rate around 130 plus or minus. Other exercise includes HIIT w/some weight training, hiking, rucking, golf, and a golf workout I've devised. Occasionally running, but I really don't like it; I'd prefer something like HIIT or hoops for cardio. Flexibility: I'm woefully inflexible, but I have a 10-minute stretch routine I do pretty much every day. Golf is my primary motivation, but it's good for overall health. I'd like to get back into yoga some, but I can't do hot yoga (which was my favorite) and I can't hang upside down with my stoma, so I've put it off. Intellectual: I take classes at ASU which are part of the OLLI network for retired folks: https://lifelonglearning.asu.edu/ They are offered at other schools throughout the country, and many of ours are available on Zoom. That's where I started memoir writing, and taken classes on subjects from autonomous vehicle technology (currently) to Einstein's great 1905 year to Beethoven's 9th symphony. Keeps the mind a little sharp. Sleep: Try to get at least 8 hours of sleep. I've noticed the quality is much better when I haven't been drinking (duh), which leads me to rooms for improvement: Drinking: could drink less Social: it's hard with my voice situation, and I've always been this weird introvert/extrovert combo where I love big social situations, but I'm just as happy home alone, so I don't feel like I'm too emotionally hurting. I still occasionally see folks, including at the OLLI classes. -

Exercise my reproductive system. -
It's roughly $100K/year for a full time job. Minimum? Also, and not to you specifically because I'm sure you know it, but it's worse than increasing to $50, because all of the other jobs that require more than minimum will have to be above $50.

Timmy’s thread for general discussion
jerryskids replied to The Real timschochet's topic in The Geek Club
And yet, the 90% was back in the "traditional" Rep candidates like you mentioned, and very few voted Rep. It's only now, with Trump, that Reps are making a dent in the black vote. Thoughts? -
Timmy’s thread for general discussion
jerryskids replied to The Real timschochet's topic in The Geek Club
Somewhere close to 90% of black people in recent history have voted Democrat. 90% of people can't agree that the sun rises in the east. They aren't voting Democrat because each and every one is doing a deep intellectual analysis and concluding that the Democratic party is the objective answer for them. They do so because they are programmed to do it, through family, friends, community influences. This isn't unique to black people. My mom was raised in union, blue dog Democrat NE PA, and readily admitted that she typically voted Democrat down the line. And there are certainly people, including many here, who just vote Rep or MAGA down the line. But please, be intellectually honest. -
I said that I would no longer make fun of your church founded by some dood who preached to hippies and surfers in SoCal, vs. the one true church established by Jesus through St. Peter who continues to provide the spiritual Christian guidance of billions of people. So I won't start now. I will however point out that the Catholic Church which you so revile, curated the books that became the Bible, that book which you interpret to fit your worldview and which you wrongly believe is the only guidance to salvation.
