    Jack Ryan on Amazon Prime

    I'm only through 3 episodes. I do find it entertaining and looking forward to continuing it. But I'm not ready to call it "great" yet. So far many of the things have been very predictable and a little far fetched. Seems a little like a better produced network serialized drama. That isn't a...

    Anyone own a beach condo in Florida? Or if you could, where?

    My in-laws have a house on St George Island. They bought it as a weekend getaway but ended up moving there full time because they liked it so much. Great beaches, enough to do but never seems too crowded. Only 80 miles from tallahassee so we are there a lot.

    Daycare services Tallahassee

    Our kid is at First Baptists right now. He loves it there. Best thing about it is that they don't use the leon county school calendar. There are many times that First Baptists is open when other daycares are closed because of a teachers holiday or something like that.

    Spring training memories

    Was at game 6 in 1995 and saw the Braves win the World Series thanks to Tom Glavine pitching 8 innings of one hit ball. Next year went to West Palm for spring training and was able to get Glavine to sign my ticket stub from game 6

    Rover.com

    Used it for the first time over the thanksgiving break. Was super easy and had a good experience. I like that they have a bunch of options (dog goes to sitters house, sitter stays at your house, or sitter stops by as needed). I was told Rover vets the sitters a lot before they get hired. Only...

    Looks like there was a hazing death at FSU over the weekend

    I had the same feelings when he was named president but he has completely changed my mind and think he's done a great job. Thrasher has always been proactive. Whether is was defending the university from undue media criticism or making academic funding a priority, he is not one to sit around...

    Looks like there was a hazing death at FSU over the weekend

    Hazing sanctions can be for almost anything. When I was a pledge my fraternity was sanctioned for singing. Literally our pledge class was practicing for a skit and the campus police thought it was a prank. And yes, this might be a case of forced drinking but it could just be a tragic accident...

    Any silver linings to your Hurricane Irma experience?

    The Braves were giving free tickets to evacuees so I got to see a game and check out the new Suntrust Park. Really liked the stadium and the surrounding "Battery" area

    Game of Thrones: Season 7, Episode 6 - Beyond the Wall

    Coming to the realization that the ending of the show is going to be bad. And I don't mean what actually happens, but more how its presented. I understand that it would be hard to live up to the standards of the first 6 seasons and eventually the pace had to pick up. But things just feel so...

    Anyone use Pods for moving service?

    I used PODS last summer and had a positive experience with them. We sold our house quickly and were had to wait 6 weeks for our new home to finish being built. I found it super convenient since it combined moving and storage into one step. After six weeks when they dropped the two units at our...

    She won't have to be present once the dragons figure out that Jon is her brother and he rides them into battle

    So no talk about last night's Gold Cup?

    First, Zusi is horrible and should never be on as a right back. I have mixed feelings about the whole thing. Love getting a trophy and will never complain about that. Especially without many of our best players. But was hoping to see more of the younger guys shine in their opportunity. I was...

    Does anyone watch preacher on AMC?

    Show is good but the acting is what keeps me watching. I just find it so much fun to watch the three main characters together.

    Almost half of HS seniors graduate with an A average; SAT scores lower

    I hate having the "back in my day" attitude but I am not surprised by these findings. I went to a good school in Cobb County, had good grades and a high SAT score when compared to my class mates of 2002. I literally only applied to FSU because I was certain I would get in and I did. But when I...

    What was your summer job as a kid?

    Had some typical summer jobs (cart barn, bus boy) but also had some interesting ones as later in highschool/college. 1. Pyrotechnic Show Lead: My father professional firework shows for a living (to towns, sports teams, special events) so every June & July I'd work for him. I'd load trucks and...

    Way behind...The Newsroom

    Liked the show for the most part in spite of Sorkin. All of his work ends up sounding the exact same. Sports Night was a better show but both have that "preachy" unrealistic dialog.

    How was Doak After Dark?

    "Announced" attendance was just over 23,000 according to a release I just saw. Also the artists requested not to have the jumbo tron on.

    How was Doak After Dark?

    It was clear that they over estimated the amount of tickets they'd sell. As mentioned the stage was set up for 45,000-50,000 people. So there was a lot of unused areas and everyone looked spread out. However they underestimated the food/beverage staffers. Tying to get a beer in between acts came...

    Openner versus Alabama

    As of Friday they were no plans of moving the game according to this article in the AJC: "Gary Stokan, who runs the Chick-fil-A Kickoff event as president and CEO of Peach Bowl Inc., said this week that his organization has “full assurances from the Falcons” that the Alabama-FSU and...

    Playing craps

    This sums it up and is probably the philosophy of the majority of players. A hot craps table is one of if not the most fun things to experience. Of course winning is a big part of that but the excitement of a shooter on fire is unlike anything else in a casino.
