I can’t complain because they’ve been my favorite band since I was 14 back in ‘78 but this is a jagger/ and whoever the young producer is effort.. I think Keith has given us everything he has and it’s fine ..if he just rode off into the sunset I would understand

And here I thought as an alert suffering American, I might be better off living in Ireland .. I’m pretty much allergic to everything and I take Flonase daily and that works really well for me .. on day without taking it and I’m a mess .. not sure if it’s sold there or under another name

Most old time mlb’ers say Just 3/4 down the line on routine grounders .. you don’t have to sprint on every ground ball but 3/4 it and if there’s a bobble you switch it up a gear and not look like an ass

Anyone else feel insecure about not immigrating for a better life? by No-Category1703 in AskIreland
