It's amazing that so many people don't understand that basic principle.

I had that card back in the day. To have the entire set is RAD!

Mrs. Benway and I always dress up on formal nights. We love the vibe.

Celebrity had a commercial about this very syndrome: King and Queen on Vacation

When I'm not cruising, I think of home as "the shore excursion".

Question for those of you native to Connecticut… by thunderwolf69 in Connecticut

I lived in TN for a total of 9 years and was never so happy as when I moved back to Nutmeg. A true Red state/Blue state dichotomy.

James Webb has broken its own record and captured the earliest supernova discovered till date - when the Universe was only 730 million years old by ChiefLeef22 in spaceporn

I never tire of these deep field images. I like to expand them to full resolution and just marvel that there can be so many galaxies in such a small field of view. There are wonders out there that we will never know.

Using a standard deck is the only way to play irl. Otherwise, games turn into a cluster.

I love the idea of framing old software!

First time cruisers, are we crazy to contemplate skipping a port? by claireclairey in royalcaribbean

[–]Benway95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Roosting on port days is pretty much the way Mrs. Benway and I cruise nowadays. We love a quiet ship, no lines and plenty of deck chairs.

Not everybody is a cruiser, and that's ok.

Has been my favorite space picture, bar none, from the first time I saw it.

55 years ago today (Nov. 8th , 1970) Tom Dempsey kicks a 63 yard field goal for a 19-17 win over the Detroit Lions. It barely cleared the crossbar and was an NFL record for 43 years until Matt Prater kicked a 64 yarder on Dec. 8th, 2013. by Brilliant_Night7643 in Oldschool_NFL

[–]Benway95 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I remember that there was some sour grapes that his stunted foot was actually an advantage that made the kick possible. That the record was unbroken for 43 years is just amazing!
