This is what $6.8M vs $675,000 of production looks like this season. And it goes up from there every year.

Trevor Lawrence may be out of reach but if Dallas can out-lose Jacksonville they can draft Justin Fields. Not a bad consolation prize and they would have him for 5 years. The 100+M saved on Prescott would go a long way in rebuilding the o-line and entire defense. Oh, and cut Zeke, Pollard has it handled.

Yesterdays game scared the hell out of me. Going into the 4th quarter with a 13 point lead and would have really screwed up the Cowboys draft potential if they would have won.

Hmm, iirc I had to take one 8 years ago. They also waived the vision test as long as you say there havent been any changes to your vision since last time, which slightly raised my eyebrows.

True that! I had been dreading going back ever since I saw how bad the line was the first time but had resigned myself to take my lumps today. I was so happy that my 1 hour investment of going before they opened saved me a couple hours on the backend. Aside, the "written test" is no longer written multiple choice, its now touch panel multiple choice and you have to get 28 correct answers to pass. I dont know how many you can get wrong, its ridiculously easy and I didnt miss any.

Renewed my drivers license and got the newly required "Real ID". I tried to do it a few weeks ago and the line at the DMV was out the door, down the side of building, and ending out in the rear parking lot. So I left. Today I was there an hour before they opened and I was second in line. Thirty minutes after I got there another ~40 people had already queued up behind me! Otherwise: new picture, proof of residency (for Real ID) and taking the written test and I was in and out of there in 20 minutes. WooHoo!

It was you mentioning it earlier that made me realize it even existed! I loves me the Tremors series warts and all. A guilty pleasure, like my personal Sharknado. It wont be the same now.

Are they going to be elevated to take advantage of gravity or are you also installing a pump?

What you've done today - One Life to Live
I heard what sounded like two cannon balls careening down my stairs and my kittens came skidding around the corner to post up at my back sliding door. A squirrel was sitting on one of the patio chairs and the little bastage had torn a hole in a cushion and was filling his cheeks with stuffing, presumably to line his burrow for the winter. So in the garage the cushions went, at least only one was ruined. My wife was pretty miffed but I gave the cats treats for alerting me.
