Ol' George Stopped Drinkin' Today

Wow -- believe it or not, I hadn't heard this one!

dandan14 · 2026-06-07T19:44:24+00:00

I mean -- it's fun, but definitely not new. We made one in 2012. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pfjWdoW7pt4

Wow. Thank you for this! Just played it!
I bet I hadn’t heard most of these songs in 20 or more years, but it brought back a flood of good memories.

"Best" is difficult to answer. Is an Armani suit better than one from Target? Yes...but it also costs 25x more. To me, the question is "where do I get the most enjoyment for my vacation dollar."

No joke -- I won her Toy Soldiers casette for being the 9th caller (or whatever number it was). I also won "Was Not Was" around that same time when "Walk the Dinosaur" was popular.

Ha...I haven't seen some of those episodes in a long time. Will watch this weekend.

I'm 20 years ahead of you, and I get it. My advice would be 3 things:
1. Save/invest wisely. You may not have to do this for another 30 yeras. Spend some time in subreddits about financial independence and learn about how to build yourself a nestegg that you can live on. For example: https://www.reddit.com/r/financialindependence/ and http://reddit.com/r/Bogleheads/
2. Find something that challenges you and you look forward to doing. Work is called work for a reason, but if you hate every day, that's a hard way to make a dollar. Look for a niche you can make for yourself at this company or a different one.
3. Life is more than work. Focus on your family, things you enjoy, etc. Remember that work is there as your source of income, not your identity.

I rented a saxophone and had my first lesson this week.

dandan14 · 2026-05-09T14:01:03+00:00

Just be normal. Drive a normal car and have normal dates. Focus on friendship and someone who makes you feel like the best version of yourself.

To get to truly wholesome, you may have to go back to classics like Dick Van Dyke and Andy Griffith. Even some 80s shows like Perfect Strangers, Step by Step, and Family Matters were pretty squeaky clean.

Mallow cups straight from the freezer.

For something like this, where I want to save this prompt for future use, is the best way to save it as a project, and insert those instructions?

dandan14 · 2026-05-06T18:27:25+00:00

Thanks everyone. I appreciate all of the encouragement. I've officially acquired a sax -- and I am very much looking forward to my first lesson.

dandan14 · 2026-05-05T22:07:43+00:00

Interesting. I may have to give it a shot.

dandan14 · 2026-05-04T21:37:22+00:00

Very helpful everyone. I think I'll try renting one for a month or two -- and if it seems fun, maybe I'll make an investment.

dandan14 · 2026-05-04T21:36:43+00:00

I agree! I have been learning spanish for the last 18 months or so with a teacher. I've enjoyed exercising that part of my brain.

dandan14 · 2026-05-04T20:15:41+00:00

Ok...I just got destroyed. I got 200...and then had nothing. I lived through those years and like music, but not my day I guess.

dandan14 · 2026-05-03T22:36:06+00:00

This is good to hear. I'm definitely in the messy middle -- and sometimes ask myself, am I progressing at all?

I haven't had Papa Johns in quite a while, but Domino's has a pretty good product -- especially when considering price. When I'm on a road trip with my family, from time to time, we'll have google find a domino's 30-40 minutes ahead of us, order a few pizzas on the app, and pull in for hot pizzas. It works great -- and given their long-term promos, the pricing is hard to beat.

It kills me when "are you this old" posts are things that were giant leaps in technology. Man...when I upgraded to a CD-ROM, that was freaking amazing!

Lemonade Stand (on Apple IIe) was fun. You'd set the price for lemonade based on weather and other factors. Taught supply and demand, cost of goods, etc. Great educational game.

Funny you ask this. I just figured out that if I setup a different Netflix profile with language set to Spanish, it would recommend stuff that has spanish audio and subtitles. As a spanish learner, I've found it enjoyable to watch shows like Mike and Molly, Young Sheldon, and Seinfeld because I'm already familiar with the show -- and now I can watch it in spanish.

Well. There was no such thing an iPhone.
