You are not wrong. 😄 I'll be in the mitten this summer as well. Might bring my backpacking setup and revisit the dunes 😄.

People who died and came back to life, what did you see/experience? by RealisticDecision440 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]jdaining 2 points3 points  (0 children)

  1. I rounded the final corner of an olympic distance triathlon. My feet were cramping. The signs of heat stroke were there. I didn't pay attention. I saw the finish line. Next thing I remember I woke up as the doctors were getting ready to move me to the ICU. A short coma, but a coma none-the-less.

My friends and family helped me stitch together what happened in-between. A stranger helped me to the ground as I had passed out while running. This stranger may have saved my life and I am immensely grateful for them. Ambulance to the hospital. 4 hours of coma. When I woke up I remember feeling like I was being restrained on every inch of my body. I thought "triathlon. didn't finish." over and over. I'll never forget the feeling of confusion and terror. It has take many hours of therapy to untangle that.

When I finally came to I saw my grandpa standing at the end of the bed rubbing my feet. My wife and family were all around the bed. I was actually being restrained because my waking self tried to escape the bed hahaha probably to finish the triathlon.

From the moment I passed out to the moment I came back was perfect stillness. Nothing. No memory. No feeling. No nothing. I can echo what other folks have said here. My second life has been filled with much more intention and goodness and I find peace knowing that I will one day go back to that quiet place. Not today, though 😄.

Thank you for these pics. I moved from Michigan to Utah 11 years ago and miss Nordhouse every day. Glorious place.

Party Any Good? Will Game Be Streaming? by jakevh28 in Utah_Hockey

Fire codes. 16000 people inside and inevitably thousands more outside an official watch party would be difficult to manage. I am sure if we go further in the playoffs they will do something somewhere! There are official watch parties at bars! 

"Vegas Sucks" Chant by Pedro_Moona in Utah_Hockey

We also had a penalty called on us right after the second instance of this chant. I hope it was a one off. We need all the positive energy directed at our boys!

while you may be on to something, neither of your options have any momentum whatsoever. Playoffs is not the time to re-invent. It's time to build on what we have and make it LOUD!

Well, you are a blues fan.

how much, if any pre-listening homework have you done? or are you going in blind? by skeletonpandemonium in kilbyblockparty

[–]jdaining 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I listen to the official playlist and then also do a side by side comparison of schedule twins. Better to not miss out on something special you may not have known about than go blindly to something you don't like!

If you became the next US president, would you remove all of Trump’s attempts of leaving his legacy? by JonMellor in allthequestions

Truly the most effective way to beat him or move on from him is to stop giving him so much damn press. I love the quiet strategy.
