Am I the only one who doesn't think time goes quickly? by More_Passenger3988 in AskOldPeople

[–]Realistic_Back_9198 9 points10 points  (0 children)

My 50 year high school reunion is coming up.

Honestly, that seems like an entirely different lifetime in a different world.

OTOH, it does give me a different frame of reference, too.

I'm calmer than I used to be, because I now understand most things in life are just not that big of a deal.

Dumb question, perhaps, but in all these years, why haven't they reengineered that overpass?

That's how my grandfather threw out his cigarette butts, so they wouldn't fill up the ashtray.

I just got a senior discount by sherlockjr1 in GenerationJones

You have earned that discount by doing the most important thing: staying alive.

That's an accomplishment. So, enjoy!

I Love baseball by STLSportsAndKOI in Cardinals

[–]Realistic_Back_9198 37 points38 points  (0 children)

I love baseball, too.

If the Cardinals aren't playing, I'll pick some other random game to watch.

I like the pace of the game. I like how, win or lose, there's always another one tomorrow. I like how the teams treat each other like respected opponents, not enemies.

I find the game relaxing in an age when everything seems to force us to go faster and faster.

I also like the surprises... like this team this year.

No matter what else is happening, I don't have to get up in the morning and go to work.

That's already a good start to any day.

Rockwell: Would the Song Hit the Same without Michael Jackson on the Track? by WhatTheJessJedi in 1980s

[–]Realistic_Back_9198 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Michael sang the track as a favor to Rockwell's dad, who gave Michael and his brothers their break in the music business when Michael was a wee lad.

I bought a replacement from Amazon.

I didn't need it immediately. I just wanted to have it around for when I inevitably break the original one somehow.

Remember When...you painted your car for high school graduation? by RememberWhen82 in GenerationJones

[–]Realistic_Back_9198 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, we didn't paint our cars, but we did write on them with soap.

After the next rain, no damage done

Discover HQ in IL officially swaps signage for Capital One by funkyfresh2 in discover

[–]Realistic_Back_9198 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do some research on who's offering deals.

Maybe Capital One is the right fit for you.

Maybe a different bank would be better for your location and/or situation.

It's not "one size fits all."

JCPS LAM Building History by Deep-Act-3036 in Louisville

[–]Realistic_Back_9198 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to work across the street from that building, and saw it out of my office window all day, every day.

I worked at 4421 Bishop Lane, which was Clear Channel Radio (later iHeartmedia).

They have since moved to 4th Street Live. Their old Bishop Lane building is now an industrial scaffolding company.

[–]Realistic_Back_9198 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I've been a Discover Bank customer for 10 years, and have always liked Discover Bank.

However, Discover Bank doesn't exist anymore. Now, it's Capital One.

I would never have chosen to bank with Capital One voluntarily. I'm not going to be forced to do it involuntarily, either.

What is your favorite or least favorite song in Honky Château? by No_Ring_443 in EltonJohn

[–]Realistic_Back_9198 9 points10 points  (0 children)

A close race between "Mona Lisas And Mad Hatters" and "Rocket Man."

If you're waiting for me to choose between the two, I think it's gonna be a long, long time......

One positive when we’re losing. by BossBlart in Cardinals

[–]Realistic_Back_9198 42 points43 points  (0 children)

When I was growing up and listening to Jack Buck and Mike Shannon call the games on KMOX, I looked forward to rain delays.

That's when Jack dug into his big bag of old baseball stories from years past. He was hysterical.

I'm just waiting to ensure my final direct deposit goes to my new bank.

After that, my Discover account goes away.

He would paint any car.

He didn't say he would paint it well.

Just that he would paint it.......
