I guess this belongs here. It could go in work. Gripes or police? Or a bunch of other threads I guess, but this seems the most appropriate.
Crazy shit happened last night, or I guess technically this morning at like 12:30 a.m..
I'm not super in the mood to go over it all again so I'm just going to post the recording of me. I called WIP to talk Eagles and I told the host about it. So listen to the first like 3 minutes of this and that's what happened.
Except I made up the part where he wound up in the canal because I thought that would be more entertaining for radio. There is a canal on the other side of that fence but he managed to not fall in it. He jumped over that side fence and then just disappeared. The cops didn't find him. But they were here for hours and I went over my prop video with them. I told them where all the like hiding spots that are on my prop.
Also I guess he was in a stolen car cuz they didn't tow it. Some lady just showed up and drove her car away.

Sherbert is NOT and NEVER WILL BE ice cream.
Oh he does this legacy bit every night called Snack of the Night. Big Daddy Graham was the overnight guy I grew up with who started out but he died and Jon took over.
So like 3 or 4 months ago apple pie was the snack of the night and he said he didn't like it. So I tease him about it saying like he must be a Russian spy or something because every red blooded American man enjoys apple pie.
I just now saw your question, Mister scotch. I was Thomps2525. Yes, that avatar was used by Richard Hoaxland, whom I usually called the Hoaxman and who was the nastiest, most hateful person on XMFan. Because "Richard Hoaxland" does not show up in Internet searches or Facebook searches, I believe the name was phony.
Well, I'm just glad my photographic memory was able to help get to the bottom of this important issue.
I had a good weekend last weekend. I told you guys how my one Aunt and I watch all those 90 Day shows and the gilded age together. Well, we're also big fans of Downton Abbey but we watched those separately before we started watching everything together.
Anyway, for months now I told her when the new movie comes out I'll come up there. We'll see it together. So that's what we did this weekend and it was delightful and we went to a 10:50 matinee and I am pretty sure I was the only man in the theater and I am also pretty sure I was the only person under 65 and that is being generous, probably 70 in the theater.
I don't care though. Downton Abbey is awesome and I was laughing along with all the old ladies with all the awesome jokes, some of which were from 8 years ago. Call back type jokes and we all got a great kick out of it and it was a delightful weekend with my aunt.

This was how my friend and I felt seeing Jon Anderson in concert. We were in the bottom 5% group age-wise. Great show. But aside from "Let's bring the grandkids along", we were the youngest people there.
Since we're getting into June and the year is rolling by, I figured I would let you guys know about my stupid little hobby.
When I was a kid I would get those day by day Far Side calendars where you rip off the page everyday. Last year for some reason I remembered about them and so I got one and it was fun and I got another one this year.
What I've been doing for the past 2 years is every time one of the comics is particularly funny to me I save it. So far I have saved 16 days this year.
I went through them a minute ago and of the 16, these 4 are my favorites. What do you all think and how would you rank these 4?
At a glance I would go:
April 27 - #1
May 9 - #2
February 20 - #3
March 14 - #4
The Maestro introduction to the banjo quartet and the frustrated Herman Melville really make me chuckle every time.

You sound like Pam. There are various instances when I refer to her as a grumpy grump (which you can imagine she absolutely loves and doesn't get pissed at me every time I say it whatsoever) but she just doesn't enjoy the Far Side humor.
This is a keeper from 2025 which is the only time I have ever seen her chuckle at a Far Side cartoon:
Speaking of 2025 I deemed 29 days funny enough to save.

And since I'm going over the 2025 ones that bee one is in my top 5 and here are my 4 other faves of last year:
Of these four in order from favorite to least favorite:
20
25
10 & 11
13
I think the Alamo one is really fucking clever.

I got this as a graduation gift from one of my college friends in 1984. I had it for probably 20 years.
I said it before and I"ll say it again.
You're not getting or keeping any girl until you get sober, stay sober, and stop sabotaging your relationships.

OMG you sound like a girl bro, and you don't even let me bang you.
But I know you're right. And I only want to get or keep one.
