Checks? I'm an old fart and I only write one check every three years as one agency I deal with is still in the stone age.

So much for a second career collecting stud fees.

Yeah, and if the other party would be late paying the fee, Highland would charge high interest rate in the double digit on the amount owe. That's how he rolls.

Put iOS 11.2 beta on my phone. Stopped receiving messages and Spotify would blast through my phone speakers when removing my airpods.

Had to restore back to 11.1.1

So you do plan on a second career collecting stud fees! Being a stud for a dude is doing it wrong IMO, perhaps that's all your wife would go for :D
Oddly enough, I'm pregnant… or at least look that way.

It was kinda chilly today. ~40°, and fairly windy. To top it off, my back hurts. That shit's getting old. It's getting to the point it hurts more than it doesn't.

None of that is the problem. The problem is I was looking forward to lighting the first fire of season, drinking some whisky, and fucking around online. I got the fire lit, and now I'm hot and don't want whisky. At least the cat's happy :^/

LOL! Don't like your whiskey on the rocks? Damn, now I want a drink but don't feel like heading out to the liquor store (cold and windy here as well).

Neat only. Chilling it kills the flavor. I broke down and poured a glass of Michter's rye. Tastes good. I've been avoiding it to give my taste buds a break, and see if I liked it as much as I thought. This is my current mid range(~$45) favorite. Well rounded and smooth, and moderately sweet. I'm guessing they use a fair amount of corn in the mash, but I haven't been able to find a mash bill for it.

I was ordering some equipment online and the checkout system asked me what country I was in. I had to scroll down to select United States.

Pizza Hut and Papa Johns have seriously dropped in quality over the last 10 years. I wish they'd stop trying slash costs and move back toward high-quality reasonable-price food.
Don't they get that 10 topping pizza by emptying a can of dog food over tomato sauce and cheese?

Been a very long time since I had Pizza Hut but since they are more of a restaurant than a pizza joint I always figured they were higher quality, did they really degrade that much?

Now I'm hungry for stuffed crust pizza. Mmmmmmm.

Had pizza last night and after I lied down on the couch you could feel the burn in your stomach from that nasty ass pizza sauce.

I know you're not suppose to lie down after you eat, but I didn't care.

I find I have to do that all the time. The countries should be listed with the U.S. first based on geo-IP location.

But I'm asking too much.

Or at least order the countries with the top 7 countries in the world, then alphabetically.
