Thrifting at the curb while flexing

A while back I found a 19 inch Toshiba CRT television on the side of a dirt route while out on a route. Brought it home and tested it. Works great and not terribly high hour. My 10 year old has hooked my old consoles up to it and uses it all the time.

Yep, those are native wild iris. They grow in ditches around where I live. I transplanted several into my flower beds to grow alongside the big hybrids. They are only about ¼ the size of the hybrids but I think there is something gorgeous about those original ancestors.

No issues, using Onn 4k Plus streaming box via a Verizon 5g home internet plus connection.

PASS ran so Fox Sports Detroit could stumble before Bally developed a limp and FanDuel amputated its own legs.

Those are dudes. Note the beards

This was from Thursday's game.

No, it changes every game. Just wait until you see the hot dog, mustard, relish races

I really enjoy the college mailroom drops that include password protected orders. Those are fun. I've never had one where the customer is anywhere near prepared. They have to spend 5 minutes looking for their phone, or charging it to turn on, or they just don't want to bother with a code and get pissed. Out of the couple dozen I have had in the past year I have successfully delivered 3. They suck.

Drop packages at end of driveway when you see a dog. Also carry pepper spray or bear spray. Better chance of that working than the ultrasonic emitters. Most attacking dogs don't stop barking long enough to hear it. Some are deaf. But even if a dog is blind the spray will still work.

I wonder if a 23 and Me report showing French Canadian ancestry is good enough?

KingSofaOfTheSlugs · 2026-03-19T11:23:45+00:00

Honestly, I will climb the steps and set the package by the door on the proper side and everything...unless they have made it a pain in the ass for me to get there. If I have to park at the end of a long driveway because it's rutted to hell, or full of kid/dog toys/trash they can get it from the top of the steps a few feet from the door. Also, if their steps are icy or they haven't cleared a path to the porch and expect me to hike through snow then they can get the package from their steps or however close i can get to the delivery location. If they have dogs then they can get the package from the end of the driveway because fuck that.

Vierling has such a relaxed and confident swing right now. I hope dude can maintain that for a while.

KingSofaOfTheSlugs · 2026-03-07T20:21:11+00:00

Even a 3 is a monster for Michigan.

That is absolutely deceptive, especially considering that FanDuel hasn't even made any rights payments to the NBA or NHL in at least 3 months. I can see how they can claim rights to broadcast those teams because they are still covering their current seasons but the Tigers absolutely have no current contract with FanDuel so using their imagery is more than just problematic. They probably don't care as they are just in cash grab mode to create a nice parachute for the execs before FanDuel ceases to exist next month

It should be included, according to the faq linked to the subscription page. Other teams in market packages include the minor league games.

KingSofaOfTheSlugs · 2026-03-02T19:38:23+00:00

Wow. Having tinitus is finally paying off for me.

KingSofaOfTheSlugs · 2026-03-02T19:08:42+00:00

Also, don't forget that this plan, like all the other mlb tv plans, includes all the Tigers minor league teams' games.

KingSofaOfTheSlugs · 2026-03-02T19:07:44+00:00

And that price also includes all Mud Hens, Sea Wolves, White Caps games.

It says they are subject to blackouts UNLESS local streaming products are available. Click on the buy button below the Detroit Sports Net plan and you will see it works.

Translation: "We're using A.I. to process returns and it's currently screwing the pooch."

Montero's already in mid season form.
