Steelers will play very hard. Would be interesting if it ends up with Chiefs vs Bills but I don’t think it will get to that. I think Titans beat Chiefs in second round. Good luck. Thought it was interesting that they talked about how cold it was. I remember being in Rich Stadium in 1994 shooting video of the chiefs for our station. It was so cold and top it off freezing rain. I was wearing long underwear and coveralls and still froze my tail off. At the end of the game I couldn’t feel my toes or the tips of fingers. It didn’t matter the Chiefs lost I just wanted to get someplace warm. Don’t you know the fix is in for Big Ben to end his career with another SB ring? Of course they need to play the Chiefs better than last time. Edited January 16, 2022 by h20skibum 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken at the beach Posted January 16, 2022 #44157 Share Posted January 16, 2022 One of the local Karting clubs a couple of hours away does an annual winter race. Of course Toby wanted to go and with the start of school being pushed back a week he was able to. You could take your own kart or use one if theirs. Given the ice covered track and the fact that his had already been winterized he opted to use one of theirs even if it was slower. Not sure if this shows true dedication to the sport or just good old Canadian winter craziness. 19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm more interested in the game that's on right now - Tampa and Philly. I'd love to see the Bucs get booted out of the playoffs. Not a Brady fan here. The Bills were absolutely awesome last night against the Pats - looking nearly unbeatable. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reallyitsmema Posted January 16, 2022 #44165 Share Posted January 16, 2022 Just a public service announcement for all you people that have the ability to download your covid record in a QR code on your phone via the SMART Health Card system, used by MA, NY, CA, CT, RI and a few others, check your information. We just downloaded ours and verified the information against the information on our vaccine cards and mine is wrong. 😞 My booster shot lot number is wrong, so now I have to go to CVS and have them submit corrected information to the state health department. The number on my card looks like it was written by a two year old with their good hand tied behind their back. We were able to find a Moderna lot number look up on the internet and they are all 7 digits, not the 8 digits mine shows. I just have to convince them that the thing that looks like a 7 on my card is indeed an F and the person who typed in the lot number must have attempted to correct their error but didn't delete the wrong character. I know that the woman who gave me my booster at the CVS in Target was just a temp who was going to various CVS stores, so she won't be there to verify her handwriting. I hope if I go to our regular pharmacy, one of the techs I usually deal with will be able to fix it. Fingers crossed. At least it is not one of the shots I got at Gillette Stadium. Not sure who I would have gone to to get that fixed as they say go to the provider to have it fixed. 5 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No traffic (half the population is quarantined) and plenty of parking (rainy weather + the above). This time we parked at the Marina, restaurants, people watching and... the sea. We had about 30 mins until the rain started again.... Of course, the die hard surfers were out in force. The sea was muddy. Beautiful pictures, Dani. I love Marinas...I love seeing all of the beautiful boats there. We have several Marinas in the town we live in. So good that you and DH were able to get out and about! How are DS1 and grandsons doing? Still having to quarantine? 16 hours ago, aussielozzie18 said: Speaking of rough seas, we had a Tsunami warning last night for the entire East Coast of Australia from Queensland to Tasmania as a result of the undersea volcanic eruption in Tonga. A maritime warning was still in place this morning, so had a walk along the boardwalk at Curl Curl in Sydney. Beautiful pictures, aussie! We were under Tsunami Watch while our ship was docked in Oahu years ago. Scary! 11 hours ago, grapau27 said: Good morning. It is 43°F and wet here. We are just about to leave for church.

Like riding the slides, and going to get a last Wake View photo. Out of the garage at 7:52, and we are on the road, in the rain, and as far north as Melbourne. Time to plan how best to avoid Izzy on the way home. Only about a 1,000 mile drive from here. What a wonderful two weeks you had cruising! Safe travels, Mark. Thank you again for taking us along. Your many, many pictures have all been awesome! Our daughter Melanie lived in Melbourne around 18 years ago. We loved visiting her there.

It didn’t matter the Chiefs lost I just wanted to get someplace warm. If the Chiefs beat the Steelers, the Chiefs (2 seed) will host the Bills (3 seed) next week. I'm actually rooting for that to happen. The Bengals (4 seed) would then play at the Titans (1 seed). If the Bills and Bengals could both manage to win on the road (very hard in the playoffs), the Bills would play in the AFC championship game at home against the Bengals. That would be amazing for Bills Mafia. Like I said, one game at a time. 3 hours ago, Ourusualbeach said: One of the local Karting clubs a couple of hours away does an annual winter race.

Thank you for asking, Maryann. Yes, the grandsons are still quarantine. They'll be set "free" tomorrow (Monday), and can get back Tuesday. DS2 and DDIL are not in quarantine, since they're 3X vaccinated, but someone has to be with the kids. Half the population is in quarantine, and there is mounting pressure to shorten it from 7 days to 5 days for those who are not sick, asymptomatic and were just "in the vicinity" of a sick person. Too late NOW for the grandsons, but... who knows... next week, when another person will be sick... it can come handy. The little one actually isn't going back to the kindergarten on Tuesday. If he's negative tomorrow, he'll undergone a minor ear surgery called "buttons".

Rare Sea Dog Posted January 16, 2022 #44175 Share Posted January 16, 2022 @firefly333 Hey Jane question? Looking to book hotel in Galveston for our October cruise. I know we had some conversations about places to stay. Did you recommend The Beachfront Palms to stay? They had cruise parking for the week correct? Any others you like ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
