The Royals won their last two games but I'm not sure beating the Angels counts. It's like beating the Royals the last few years.... no biggie. Everyone beats em.

and @TheManWithTheGoldenGun the s23 ultra is a solid phone, if that is what you are looking into. you can't beat having the s-pen. and the fact that the holder for it is built in. i missed that feature. i hope the fold 6 will include one as well.

Maybe it's a good idea to save the 6-pack until AFTER mowing...

What does everone read on here? Make sure to write a description of the books, maybe that way we might find something new to read! Ill start:

I have a lot of favorites -

"Hatchet" by Gary Paulsen

"The Frontiersmen" by Alan Eckert, also "Wilderness Empire" and "Blue Jacket" by the same author
-All three are about the expansion through america's wilderness and native american lands. The author studied letters, diaries, newspapers, gvt. records, etc. of the time and compiled it into a narrative.

"Band of Brothers" by Stephen Ambrose
-You may have seen the HBO miniseries. It follows Easy Company, 506th PIR of the 101st Airborne from boot camp to VE day in World War Two.

"20,000 Miles South" by Frank and Helen Schreider
-Another nonfiction.. a couple in the early fifties who take an old WW2 army jeep, fabricate it into an amphibious vehicle, and drive it from alaska all the way down to the southernmost tip of south america. Pretty amazing story.

"The Lost City of Z: A Tale of Deadly Obsession in the Amazon" by David Grann
-Another true story of Col. Percy Fawcett, a famous explorer in the 20s who was obsessed with finding the lost city of El Dorado (city of gold) in the amazon.. he ends up dissapearing. Over the years following over a hundred people go in search of him and never return.

"The Ice Master: The Doomed 1913 Voyage of the Karluk" - nonfiction narrative describing Vilhjalmur Stefansson's 1913-1914 attempt to reach the north pole. The ship gets stuck in ice. Stefansson leaves on a hunting expidition across the ice and doesn't return. Captain Robert Bartlett takes leadership and they all travel across the ice to "wrangel island" a rocky little island in the arctic. Eventually Capt. Bartlett and one of the Inuit guides take a small party of sled dogs and make it to alaska to send for releif. Keep in mind the temperatures range around 0 to -50 degrees (that's right NEGATIVE 50) and for a few MONTHS it is completely dark 24/7. It was over a year from the time the ship got stuck in the ice to the time the crew was rescued, 11 people died either in the journey over the ice or when they were stranded on the island.

"I Hope They Serve Beer In Hell" by Tucker Max
-google it

"My Horizontal Life" by Chelsea Handler
-more drunken sexcapades, this one from a female perspective

as you can see, I mostly like nonfiction

Maus and From Russia With Love

I did a bit of shopping this morning and then worked in a ride before my ultrasound appointment. I rode my normal 21 miles and it was a nice enough day that I wasn't the only person riding. As the weather improves, I hope to see more people out walking and riding.

After years of faithful service, my Bose QC earbuds quit. I'm spoiled to the heavy bass of the Bose and very spoiled to years trouble free use so I purchased another pair. I replaced the old with the Bose QuietComfort Ultra earbuds. I haven't worked with them yet but I think they will serve me well. I really enjoy the noise cancelling tech.

We ended up eating at an upscale sandwich place. It seem to be the hangout for the young dating scene. I had a spicy Italian sandwich on a toasted white hoagie bun. I was not wowed by the sandwich but my daughter loves the place and had her favorite chicken Caesar sandwich.

A guy was driving around the back woods of the Missouri Ozarks and saw a sign in front of a broken-down house:

Talking Dog For Sale

He rang the bell and the owner appeared. The owner told the man the dog was in the backyard and led him around the house. They went into the backyard and the guy saw a nice looking Labrador retriever sitting there.

"Do you talk?' he asked the dog.

"Yep," the Lab replied.

The guy reeled from the shock of hearing a dog talk, then asked: "So, what's your story?"

The Lab looked up and said, "Well, I discovered that I could talk when I was pretty young. The CIA soon acquired me and, in no time at all,
they had me flying around from country to country, just sitting in rooms with spies and world leaders because no one would suspect a dog would be listening to every word. I was one of their most valuable assets for eight years... but the constant travel and jet lag really started tiring me out. I knew I wasn't getting any younger, so they retired me and I decided to settle down. I helped at the airport, doing some part-time undercover security... sitting near suspicious characters and listening in. I uncovered some incredible smuggling deals and was awarded a bunch of medals. But I found a nice lady, had a litter of puppies or two, and now I'm just happily retired."

The guy was astonished! He walked back around the house with the owner and asked what he wanted for such an incredible dog.

"Ten dollars," the owner replied.

"Ten dollars??? That's it? That dog is amazing! Why on earth are you selling him so cheap?"

The owner looked at him. "Because the dog's a dirty liar. He never did any of that crap."

Mow your lawn at 11:30 tonight. That will piss of the neighbor that mowed in the morning. The dog will bark again, which will piss off the both the early mower and the dog's owner.

You may be on to something here

If I didn't like my other neighbors I'd be on board
