Lightning Lord

I want to be clear that if my time zone (GMT+7; 12 hr different from CST) is the sticking point for others, please plan for others. I sort of assume I am the outlier and while I want to draft live, I also shouldn't be gumming up the works.

Maybe best not to test it. I can always just use a different Yahoo account if they end up being same time.

Pretty much any time on those two Fridays and Saturday 26th. I am likely opposite hours to most people, with unpredictable windows of time in US evenings. If I have to auto-draft, so be it, but hard to really know. We use Yahoo still? I have a work league but I assume I can have two. Anyone know if I can have two drafts run at the same time?

It's been a minute since I've been truly active on the Board but any room left in B?

Millions to all the children!

I have one of those backpacks for my dog, especially used on the motorbike. She really seems to enjoy it and we get a lot of intersection-based attention.

Perfect game for Germane. Ye gods I hate the Yankees but...grumble grumble... fantastic! Even if it was against the A's and as such should get an asterisk the size of the sun.

Went to my first Twins game in about seven years. It was glorious. Sixteen dollar beers, one dollar per hot dog, an outfielder pitching the ninth inning, and several home runs in the late innings took the sting off the L for me. Pro ball is good ball. Brilliant summer evening. Pitch clock did force me to pay more attention than I remember. Not a wholly bad thing (and not at all bad when viewing on the teevees).

For me, it was stumbling into a handful of blue and black bokoblins. One hit from the black ones and all of my hearts...poof. I've successfully run away from the stone taluses and hinoxes thus far. I do a lot of running away at this stage. It's been soooo fun! Checking in with some of my friends, we've all logged 10-20 hours and yet we've had wildly different experiences. All went in different directions, focused on different objectives. Delightful.

I agree! The Switch doesn't have the power of the major consoles but the designers sure managed to make some gorgeous landscapes. Really struggling with not being the fully developed Link from BotW, though. I forgot a lot of skills in that one because I could just brute-force a lot of things. Some fun puzzles so far, too. Just out of the sort of tutorial.

I don't post often here but wanted to mention that Tears of the Kingdom is pretty great so far. Absolutely beautiful setting. Interesting hook following Breath of the Wild. Looking forward to...what, scores to low hundreds of hours.

Yeah, I love baseball and am okay with a relaxed pace...but nothing wrong with a bit of move-it-along. That said, I may be less enthused when I am at the park and miss things because I am chit-chatting, eating, or drinking and forgot to pay attention I don't hate the start of the season for the Twins but they are already facing a raft of injuries to a number of starters, including Farmer getting a fastball to the face today. Yeesh. And the Rays seem out for the blood of everyone who wrote them off in the push to pick NY or the Jays in that division, with the dark horse Orioles. I know not every opponent has been top-shelf but it's also 12-0 with a run-differential of +65. This doesn't seem like a fluke but a ridiculous hot streak of a very good team.

Metallica, Kid Rock, Sevendust as opener. I think I was 15 at the time. It was the S&M tour and I was dumb enough to still think Kid Rock was entertaining instead of a douchecanoe. Have been very fortunate to see a lot of live music. That show was a pretty good hook set into me.

This is something I've had to think about recently. The vet says my dog should be around 12kg and the most recent visit was a bit over 13kg. That's not a big deal but I obviously have overdone it with feeding, especially when I was stuck unable to walk her regularly for a few weeks. The point is, I've reduced her food a bit just to make sure no problem arises. As others noted, I think if The Chancellor is still fit and active, no developing paunch, you're probably okay. I admit that that seemed like a lot of food to me, but my doggo is 1/3 the size, so.

Wizard doggo! Those eyebrows! Not sure how that video shows doggo being thick though... did I miss something? Am I the thick one? That's best news that could be hoped for? Glad she's mostly in the clear. How is the other pup humping your shoulder?

Kiki would like to know why I am not currently petting or feeding her.

So sorry, RB. Truly awful and also sending hugs.

Okayyyyyyy okayyyyy Tired from tuggies in the first image. Confused about why there's no more food in the second.

Hahaha...yeah people don't quite know what they're getting into with my dog-monster. She's still adjusting to being alone all day and then lo! I return...and walk her where all the peoples are. It's too much for her floofy brain. All agree she is an adorable little teddy bear though.

Greg - so sorry to hear that. Maarsen and solo - gorgeous Spocky - Level 7 is champion-level thinking. My doggo managed to NOT jump on seven people this afternoon, begging them to give her all of the love and pets and treats the world has ever known. Progress! (she only jumped on two of them)

Maggie is an excellent champion of dogdom! She looks like a bit of a handful

I cannot believe I have to ask this again... Is this the appropriate time to ask "pics or it didn't happen"? I'll accept "No, it's not." But I'd prefer to see more doggos being all awesome.

Is this the appropriate time to remind one of that sage advice... pics or it didn't happen?

I mean... she loves pretty much everyone, so I don't think you'd actually need to steal her. She'd just run up to you. Terrible as a guard dog. Spocky - how similar is she to your furbaby? The profile image looks durn similar. We're hoping to hang out with her bestest dog buddy soon.

Dog monster decided she was done with her cone of shame. She's doing a lot better. Incision actually looks like it is healing, it doesn't seem infected, she's playful and energetic again (even though I've been reining her in).
