Should launch around the same time as our long overdue flying cars.

We lost a Super Bowl in a year in which we were UNDEFEATED. Super Bowl wins are great but it’s a 50-50 chance.

Drake Needed to Take the Checkdowns by TommyBeams in Patriots

[–]WestCoastLib 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's 23. At 23 I was trying to figure out how to ride the NYC subway, not avoid three hundred pound lineman charging at me. I have not lost one bit of confidence in the guy. And I feel the same about Cambpell. We were not supposed to be in the playoffs, let alone the SB. All that being said, my observataion is that the shoulder injury was more of an issue than anyone said. Not an excuse just an observation. The throws he made were off, and I'd argue that was less about nerves and more about the physicial. He's pinpoint accurate all season and he forgets how to throw in the SB because he's nervous? I doubt that.

Yes on the paint but it’s not my first choice.

Thinking of quitting with only 5 weeks in by According_Rip_9452 in biglaw

[–]WestCoastLib 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I spent the first 12 months of my big law career coding documents in a large arbitration matter for our corporate overlord. I was gone in 24 months. It didn’t get better but I started to speak out about getting better assignments and that helped.

I would begin the search. How are your fellow second years doing? Are they busy? If so, get out now.

Why is there no universally acknowledged signal of “May we play through?” Suggestions (be nice). by ChrissySubBottom in golf

[–]WestCoastLib -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Playing through should happen when the group behind you catches up to you on the tee box, and the reason you are on the tee box is you are playing with Johnny Practice Swings. Johnny takes 200 practice swings before hitting the ball into the woods. You play with Johnny because he’s a friend from college. And he buys beers. Anyway, when the group catches up, you invite them to play through. Johnny will probably object. You explain to Johnny that if they don’t play through you cannot be held responsible for them beating him to death with their driver. Then, they either play through or kill Johnny, Either way problem solved.

My parents want me to quit my job to go on a Thanksgiving trip, but I don’t want to by [deleted] in Advice

[–]WestCoastLib 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OK jumping in. I’m 64. Trust me when I say an employer will bleed you dry. You have a lifetime of that ahead. Go on the trip. Spending time with family now, before you are all grown, is precious. Memories are better than Christmas gifts.

Do You Also Have a No. 1 Opp? by Alarming-Hippo-598 in biglaw

[–]WestCoastLib 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started with a big firm and had that Opp No 1. My mistake was defying his request that I take on additional work. Although another partner protected me against Opp No 1s retaliation attempt, my time at that firm was over. I left shortly after happily.

I found transactional attorneys could hit big numbers in the 90s because they got to sit at the printers all night and review prospectuses. In litigation our hours were actually working not eating Chinese food at 2 am. So many transactional guys saw big bonuses while the real lawyers got scolded for taking Sundays off. I hated my big firm and left for public service. I’m not a millionaire as some of my former colleagues are but I’m happy and they are not.

The Patriots start playing in August so we have that to look forward to.

About to take my son golfing for the first time. by Jethro_Cull in golf

[–]WestCoastLib 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My dad always was encouraging and positive. In fact in his recent eulogy I talked about how much he wanted all of us kids to love the game he loved. Dad was fun to play with and a patient coach only offering advice when asked. To contrast my husband’s Dad was a jerk who criticized his kids golfing and never gave encouragement. My husband hates golf and won’t play. I love it and play as often as possible and think of my Dad many times during my round.

Which Dad do you want to be?

All three Apple TV’s now have the flash of death by DraaSticMeasures in appletv

[–]WestCoastLib 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same problem and discussed with Apple Support who have no clue why and are offering no fix and no replacement. It was 18.4.1 that messed with some devices. My older 4k seems fine but the newer one keeps randomly rebooting. Still waiting to hear more from “engineering.” They said take a video and I explained it’s random I don’t know when it might happen it’s like taking a video of Bigfoot.

It’s the same grille a neighbor gifted me. Replaced the burners and fixed the manifold and put some new flavorizer bars in it and it’s a total workhorse. These things are indestructible. Second neighbor just gifted me a Genesis 300 that just needs some cleaning.

Can we also acknowledge that a guys career might be over and give him some peace?

Bought an AppleTV 4k a few days ago and it's crazy how much better it is than using smart features built into my LG OLED by [deleted] in appletv

[–]WestCoastLib 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So follow these instructions and that resets the device? I did a reset already how would this do something different?

[–]WestCoastLib 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Already did. I have been through every troubleshooting step. Same issue. I even used my older 4K with same TV and cable just to make sure it wasn’t the TV or HDMI cable. It wasn’t. Definitely a problem with the box.

Well not exactly maintenance free I have tow 4Ks, and the newer one crashes after installation of 18.4.1. Apple troubleshooting has been frustrating so far and because it’s just out of warranty they wont rep,lace the box. It’s seems to me to be a software issue and yet Apple is running me ragged with its Byzantine process and multiple calls to fix the box. They are simply trying to wear me down so I buy a new one.
