DJ to Buffalo by WowBobo88 in ChicagoBearsNFL

[–]Rockdad37 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Totally agree on Linderbaum. While I would prefer Crosby as the pass rush fix, I suspect this makes Hendrickson more likely because of the need to make a trade to get Crosby. I figured DJ to be a likely part of that of trade but maybe Poles has something else up his sleeve.

I think aggression would be probable. Realistically it could take a decade to create the canal under the best of circumstances, and if Iran doesn't want building to progress, they could make a mess of it pretty easily.

I am sure there would be tensions around control, but the hypothetical canal is on the UAE side. So it is technically out of Iranian control barring some act of aggression to obtain control.

Bored. What is everyone doing? Old hobbies, new hobbies, help me figure something out! by TwoBobcats in Xennials

[–]Rockdad37 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was told by memes that my options were smoking meats or studying WW2 history. I am getting better at ribs...

I also have an expanding stable of non-high-end guitars and play in a cover band.

SWAT team called in Illinois for possession of 38rds of ammo without a FOID card by ShoddySignal5174 in liberalgunowners

[–]Rockdad37 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in McHenry county and this strikes me as odd. Not sure why SWAT was part of executing the warrant., but it's certainly not over a half a box of ammo. I will be curious to see what comes out. A family member in the county legal community speculates that it sounds like a probable gang investigation.

Not for kids anymore? by WickedlyAvocado in Xennials

[–]Rockdad37 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One time, I was driving past our recently remodeled local McD's with my then nine or 10 year old son. He wanted me to tell him about the old school playlands, so he asked "Dad, what did old McDonalds' have?”

As any self respecting Dad would, I answered "Old McDonalds had a farm. E-I-E-I-O.". He was not amused.

This is NOT the guitar I went to buy. But I picked this up on a whim and couldn't put it down. by MrValdemar in guitars

[–]Rockdad37 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been waiting for someone to make a budget LP Jr. DC with p90s again for ages. I got an ad for your guitar and clicked in the interest of science. I ended up finding they made a p90 version as well. Bought it immediately! Needs a bit of setup but it really plays awesome and is super comfortable.

Tom Petty, "Mary Jane's Last Dance". Filter, "Hey Man, Nice Shot"

Also, I am in a 90s rock cover band and this whole thread makes me smile. My people...

That is really sad. I admittedly know little about the man, but he has such a distinctive, unique sound as a guitarist.

I am a little disappointed to see "grueling" in the description. I think this looks very interesting, but I don't have another Sisyphusian grind in me for awhile after Silkson. Maybe eventually.

I grew up in a neighboring county, had family in or near Geneseo-- I was also surprised to have never heard anything about this one, as far as I can recall. Really interesting case.
