My apologies.

No need for apologies.

I was happy with what I heard as a mediocre performance for me singing Won’t Back Down by Fuel.
From what I heard my voice wasn’t terrible like American Idol singers I’ve heard, however I can’t say it was good quality that I would brag about.

Mostly it was Lukewarm milk which isn’t far away from the desired cold milk aka a singing voice that is either great or good.

I’m not panicking that the Baseball Volunteers had an abysmal 1st weekend since they were swept because they were playing on the road, and because with more than 20 regular season games left I’m not going to overreact that them starting 0-3 is a gospel for what they are.
If they lose a series 3 consecutive weeks or more then I’ll push the Red Panic button because of them showing consistent evidence of the same flaws that haven’t been fixed much like my 2022 Titans that had an embarrassing terrible scoring offense that wasn’t fixed during the 2023 17 games in the NFL regular season.

Ain’t seen ya in the baseball forum in a bit, ya doing well? We got one this weekend, lost a couple, but the good news is we got a bunch of hard working, talented kids. We’ll be okay. Just gotta get our feet wet.

We won today, also they play almost 60 games not 20.

I see they won a shut 7-0 so that’s a high bar achievement win because 2 consecutive defeats is a frustrating flaw.

Also I didn’t say they played 20 games.
I said more than 20 regular season games left which is why 1-2 while not a desirable start for the Volunteers isn’t a huge flaw because they showed they are capable of playing good enough to get the desired result.

That’s far different from my 2022 rebuilding Cubs that repeatedly were outplayed by better teams until the 2nd half when they played mostly solid because they finally started to gel as a team offensively after the long miserable growing pains in the 1st half.
I didn’t overreact to them playing solid in the 2nd half because I knew realistically they weren’t going to make the 2022 MLB Playoffs because multiple winning teams.

I was relaxing at Old Chicago with a Braves fan/Broncos fan, also going off information provided by UT athletics in the Baseball area.

A selfie of me inside Brewsky’s where I watched the highly entertaining 2023 Daytona 500.
It had overtime, and it wasn’t Busch, Logano, Harvick, or any other inside the box common known Nascar driver that won the 2023 Daytona 500.

I’m wearing a great Cubs adjustable hat that is Las Vegas style because mostly black with some Gold.
Shown in the 3rd image is a completely original outfit created by me.
The black Seeker Taper Black pants that has the same softness as blazers, and suit coats.
From the Buckle store.

A black long sleeve Henley shirt made by GoodFellow which I bought at Super Target, and made me think of the same style long sleeve shirt that the badass Antihero Protagonist Cobra wears from the action movie (1986) Cobra.

The flashy Affliction Forever Live Fast t-shirt that has the terrific philosophical lines that are We Will Fall.
We Will Rise.
We Will Greet The Challenge.

The whole humans falling isn’t a reason to be pessimistic or cynical because of the 2 optimistic achievable actions.
It has a badass snake on the t-shirt which I enjoy because snakes are not evil animals because they’re only attack humans if threatened, provoked, or needed for self defense.
Also snakes are a form of rodent control so the hatred of snakes isn’t just inane, it’s very foolish because I doubt any human has the desire to live on Earth with the visible flaw of no rodent management after most snakes get killed.
I bought this flashy Affliction t-shirt at the Buckle store.

Her hair she dyed blue close to the Blue that Beast the badass mutant has of the X-Men team.

Old Chicago has Karaoke Sunday

I wouldn’t say that I hate snakes necessarily. I just don’t want to be near them. I had an agressive water mocassin strike at me unprovoked while I was swimming in a creek whenever I was younger so I just don’t do snakes after that experience lol

I really have no desire to sing that.
1st time I’ve seen her 2 kids which are a son, and a daughter.
So to be exact I saw her kids for 1st time on the day before a highly entertaining 2023 Daytona 500 because multiple crashes without drivers getting injured, the drama of 200 Laps in regulation didn’t have the outcome of a 1st place winner so 12 racing laps of overtime was needed.

February 17, 2023

I see my UW Huskies have the same baseball record as my Volunteers because the Huskies did have a desire 1st game since they defeated the SC Broncos in Santa Clara 10-5.
They did lose a double header on Sunday to the Broncos, however the Huskies in year 1 Jason Kelly the Huskies Head Coach might be prosperous mostly because the Huskies have talented players, and Coach Kelly might not be an unfit man that is in over his head.

I don’t expect the Washington Huskies to be a top 25 team that goes to the Super Regionals, or the College World Series.
However they might still be a good team making noise as a winning team mostly because they have the needed ingredients to be a winning team including talented players that can hit home runs, and talented players that can execute critical hits needed to advance the runners, and score runs when they aren’t hitting home runs.

I’m not saying you can’t be fearful of them, or can’t not want to be near them when not in a zoo or some other controlled environment.
I have no desire to be near snakes while not in a protected environment with exception snakes that don’t have the ability to harm me mainly because of the small size compared to rattlesnakes, cobras, vipers, etc.

I’m a Christian that is sick of the unjustified hatred of snakes as evil animals which I assume is because Eve was fooled by a cunning talking snake possessed by Satan so that she would eat from the Tree of Good and Evil which he didn’t successfully succeed with that objective.
Most likely after that most everyone decides to jump on the hate snakes like they’re the worst damn thing equal to cancer, a tornado that created a lot of destruction, Jack the Ripper, etc.

I assume because Satan is associated with the Devil or is a physical form the Devil can take, along with being associated with contemptible persons that are cunning and deceptive, and usually used as Villains or associated with Villains because Cobra Commander a ruthless leader of a terrorist group that is the main antagonists of the protagonists that is the Military Group that is the GI Joes.

Indiana Jones is a popular badass adventurer that has said “I hate snakes” so that just added to keep hating snakes like they’re utter evil animals which is an outright lie equal to anyone that wants to seriously State Fidel Castro wasn’t responsible for humans rights abuses because I can easily find multiple Cubans that would state why that’s a damn lie, anybody that seriously claims watching pirated copies of movies is a victimless crime or not theft because both statements are wrong including because it’s a violation of copyright law with the unauthorized reproduction of a movie so a damn person won’t have to pay to see the movie which is a royal the F you to everyone that was responsible for making the movie, anyone that wants to state the Michael Jordan shoes make you literally fly because objective visual factual evidence has shown that to be irrefutably wrong or a damn lie.
I had Michael Jordan shoes, and never did those flashy shoes make me fly.

The Jet Boots from the live action Super Mario Brothers would make you fly if people could find out how exactly to get that extraordinary invention created in the real world.







The most popular not negative depictions that I can think of without using a google search is the badass wrestler Stone Cold aka The Rattle Snake because he’s from Texas the Lone Star State, the badass WWF wrestler Jake the Snake Roberts that used a real snake, and RattleSnake Jake a badass antagonist in the western action animated movie Rango because he is shown to be a charismatic badass character, and he proves to be likable with the movie giving a strong reason as to why.

There used to be a Catfish restaurant in Milan, TN that was named ***hs.
Lamo .... even VN forum blanked the name out as well.

Ok, I'm wrong I see that the Lions fan and Arsenal soccer meant 30,000 posts in general topics except for no politics thread.

I might be changing my Avatar to a Green Lantern (Hal Jordan) before February 26 because the ones shown below are the ones I have available to use.
The second and third are both amazing drawings that mostly look equal to the Jim Lee Green Lantern (Hal Jordan) style shown on the right. Both are excellent quality drawings of Green Lantern (Hal Jordan) that I would proudly hang on the refrigerator in my house.

Also, I do need to write a spoiler-free review of Adventures in Babysitting since I watched that great comedy family movie that is filmed in Chicago because it's set in that great Midwest Metroplis City.
