  1. This should be LaRosa's, not Donato's. This is blasphemy.
  2. That was my husband’s comment when I mentioned this. “He’s old.”
  3. So, my son may be a Browns fan, but he knows what I like. This was one of my Christmas presents. We just found them in a pile of mail that was opened but I guess I didn’t see them. 😂
  4. That’s what our neighbor did. He died doing something he loved. I quit playing softball some years back, but would like to get back into it. I still do 8-10 mile bike rides when the weather is cooperative.
  5. Hardly. Speaking of volleyball at Flanagan’s Pub: Sad but true story. We had a long time neighbor 3 doors down from us. Nice guy-Browns and Indians fan. We’d see him walking his dogs and he would stop by our yard sales every year and he and hubby would talk sports. He ran a business out of his house, so we would save our padded mailers for him to reuse. Anyway, a few years ago, he was playing volleyball at Flanagan’s one really warm Labor Day, had a heart attack, and died. He was in his early 60’s.
  6. I hope your friend is cherishing this time with his daughter. Parenthood goes way too fast. I’m also guessing his blood pressure is a lot lower.
  7. Ding ding ding 🛎️!
  8. I won’t be voting for either of these decrepit old crooks, either. Unfortunately, I am married to a political science major so I constantly am subjected to political discourse (mostly on Faux News) so I am a gadfly by proxy. Also, I do find it amusing that Senator Katie Britt, who delivered the Republican rebuttal, did it from her kitchen table, cross around her neck, while praising Trump, who is easily one of the least Christian men you will ever encounter. I will never comprehend the evangelical Christians’ love for this man. (Except that he was fortunate enough to be able to appoint 3 judges to the Supreme Court, with help from Mitch McConnell, who then overturned Roe vs. Wade). I guess to evangelical Christians, it’s OK to sexually assault women, discriminate against people in housing, cheat on your wife, commit fraud in business, and call people “vermin”, as long as you get Roe vs. Wade overturned. 🙄
  9. So, I won 4 tickets to the Columbus Fury game (Professional Women’s Volleyball) for Monday’s game. The word I had to text to win them: Burrow. (Joe Burrow is an investor on this league.) 😂
  10. I know she was never going to be a factor, but I still hate to see it. And of course, Trump can't be gracious in his acknowledgement of her dropping out. He has to be his usual, bombastic, narcissistic, asinine self. I hate that our choices are two decrepit, old crooks. 334 million plus people in this country and this is the best we can do to choose the leader of the free world? UGH!!
  11. As an education/societal values institution, absolutely. Even when I was in junior high and I knew I was going there, I knew it was better than the local public high school. I took Driver’s Ed at my local high school with some of my friends and the building was in not as well maintained and the students were not nearly as respectful. I will say that at the high school I attended (and it was an all girl school) the level of cattiness was comparable. That comes with any large group of teenage girls. I also know that not everyone’s experience there was positive. I have friends who were on scholarship and their memories are not as good. That still goes on today. Private schools are great if your child can handle a lot of structure and discipline, but if not, they’re going to have issues. We debated sending our son to the Catholic high school in our neighborhood after he spent elementary and middle school in the public schools and I vetoed it. He wound up at the local high school and did just fine and even had opportunities to do some dual credit (high school and college credit) courses online that he would not have been able to do at the Catholic school.
  12. As a proud graduate of a Catholic high school, I hate when I hear stuff like this. The first example is hardly a Christian message, but at the same time, I’ve heard time and time again about how private schools don’t handle kids who need IEPs or special services very well so those kids wind up at public schools and do better there. The second example is greed, plain and simple, and hardly in line with the tax free status that churches enjoy. Don’t get me wrong. I’m not anti private/religious/Catholic schools, not at all. But hearing stuff like this troubles me.
  13. Wasn’t Hubbard playing hurt 😔 a lot of the year? That would explain the drop off in his performance. I have a feeling he’ll be back this year. I think we should try to get Flowers back. When he was here, for the first time in years, we actually covered a TE, and it will help with DJ Turner’s development.
