  1. Anyone on the newest season of Fargo?  

    I dig it.  Not totally sold on Chris Rock, but the rest of the cast has been outstanding.   I was mindblown to see that one of the characters is played by the same guy who was Richard Harrow (mask guy) on Boardwalk Empire.  

    Looks like some origin material for season 2 as well.

     

    Spoiler

    Mike Milligan and Joe Bulo?

     

  2. I'm not a huge gun guy, more archer, but I won an m&p shield 9mm in a raffle at a contractors breakfast.  It's a pretty popular carry gun, pretty slick.  Fun to shoot, when you can buy ammo, which is not now.

    On the bear front, a friend of a guy i know from elk hunting got mauled by a big black bear that he was bowhunting.  It charged, he and his buddy both emptied their pistols.  One had a 40 cal, the other a 45.  Didnt stop the bear fast enough (they later found most of the rounds flattened between hide and skull), dude got his face ripped mostly off.  He lived, and now is a very firm believer in the effectiveness of bear spray.

  3. I have similar feelings about all of sports right now. 

    I was so ready for some good, after so much negative since covid shut down the world back in march.

    So instead, my penguins get bounced by the worst team in the playoffs, who were a mercy throw-in.  Then the angels can't even make it in as a mercy throw-in.  And i dont even know where to start about being a lions fan.  

    At this point, covid shutting down everything except korean baseball and cornhole (sponsored by johnsonville sausages) was preferable to the multi-levelled shitshow i put myself through instead.  So, I hear you, tdawg.

    I'm trying to locate a reproduction autograph sheet that the Angels sent me in 1965. I wrote to every major league team inquiring about player autographs. Most responded, some didn't, some only sent brochures of things that they had for sale. The Angels and the Astros sent me the coolest stuff. Both sent me window stickers, the Angels sent me a color printed autograph sheet and the Astros sent me a picture pack with B&W photos and facsimile autographs of every player.

    Funny, I did something similar for a h.s. project my freshman year, 1986.  Sent to like 15 each mlb, nfl, nhl, nba teams at random.  About 75% of what i got back was seemingly mass produced by a single promotional company.  Some did send custom items, though.  Lots of cool stuff to put on my folders, binders, etc.
