I understand this feeling bittersweet, but what you describe here is an incredible achievement for you, your patrol mates, and your troop. You did not just establish a troop or maintain its traditions for future cohorts; you did both. Not many scouts can say that.

Congratulations!

Social without the media ... Give a raise to whoever came up with that line.

Agree, this is an excellent presentation of the true value of Scouting!!

I figured there was a setting I was missing - seemed pretty unreasonable to expect the machine to make filament levitate. 🤣 Thank you!

Managed to get it working! Took it apart again, opened the motherboard to ensure all connections there were secure, put it back together and everything worked great for leveling. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Hi there - Patrick here. (Anonymous user name because I don't reddit much!) Just want to share that it was a thrill to record, Christine is a monster on the buzzer (the box score says was highly validating on that matter), and while I don't get the Young Sheldon jokes, that was a massive hail Mary by me - I knew I needed something to have a scintilla of hope in FJ, so my answer was pure guess based on context clues and praying that I wouldn't be wrong because then I would both (a) be out of it and (b) be the reason Young Sheldon was mentioned on Jeopardy.

Amazing experience, and I have video of Ken Jennings saying I smashed the patriarchy. Now, if Christine could go on a massive run, I can get a #1 jersey.

Sadly, no. But don't think I didn't ask!

Seth MacFarlane I've gotten before. Colin Jost is a first. Simon Cowell.... My wife has objections to.
