January 31, 20233 yr We have a couple home improvement projects that we will finally finish. One with our "stick and bricks" and one in our "mini casa" travel trailer.

I heard a guy on the radio recently who was a prosecutor for 30 years. Now I remember at the time people saying it was a huge mistake for Alec Baldwin to grant that interview to George Stephanopoulos about the shooting but I did not know why besides the whole idea of just keeping your damn mouth shut. The long time prosecutor said that in the interview Baldwin admitted to all of the elements of involuntary manslaughter in New Mexico. The ex prosecutor said if he was trying the case, he would just show that interview and call the FBI ballistics expert to the stand to testify that the trigger would have had to be pulled for the gun to fire. I guess Baldwin said he did not pull the trigger. Seems kinda harsh and you never know once you get in front of a jury, but Alec Baldwin might want to plea to a lesser charge if he can.
February 3, 20233 yr How often to we trust the people we work with to not screw up? Makes you stop and think.
February 3, 20233 yr While Im no fan of Baldwin, I do feel for him. He has to bear that burden for the rest of his life
March 10, 20233 yr f*** cancer. One of my coaching buddies was diagnosed with stage 2 skin cancer. He's got 14 stitches in his neck from where they cut it out. He's waiting on a biopsy of the surrounding tissue to be certain they got it all. I'm now a bucket hat guy. I'm already at a high risk from so many sun burns, working outside, sports, hiking, fishing, and leukemia. I'm not going to make it easier on cancer.

March 13, 20233 yr Zillow gone wild is such a fun account to follow. People do some insane stuff with their places lol
March 15, 20233 yr I need the Soxtalk's community's assistance. I just recently got a job offer in the city near the GRF. I currently live in the far north side of city. What are some decent suburbs to consider moving to in that area? I appreciate any assistance provided! Thanks.

If you can afford it, Munster has the best school district. Close to the Borman/Ford.

I was talking with a buddy about a show we were doing. We had an actor in a show I was doing bring a real gun instead of the cheesy prop they gave us. (Several cast members all contacted the producer and he was instructed to never again bring in.) But it was during that show I realized I handled the prop differently than I would have a real gun. I couldn't bring myself to point it at anyone. I wonder if a veteran actor like Baldwin would have had that same hesitation. If so, I believe he was 100% certain it wasn't a live round. After the restart they invested in 100% replicas. I hope that becomes the industry standard so this could never happen again.

It really is like an episode of Barnaby Jones, etc come to life.

April 26, 20232 yr Just now, wegner said: Leans heavily towards tasteless for me. The only redeeming point is Hutchins' husband is involved in the project.
August 18, 20232 yr Lightning struck the tree in front of my daughters house yesterday, that one left a mark!
