Big Blue Huddle / Minnesota Centers and the Giants
April 29, 2023, 02:58:48 PM
I believe that JMS is the third Center from Minnesota that the Giants have drafted over the years.

The first was Greg Larson who was drafted in the sixth round in 1961 and went on to play 13 seasons for the Giants.

The second was Brian Williams who was drafted 18th overall in the 1989 draft and went on to played until 1999 when an eye injury ended his playing days.

The Front Porch / Maps of the US

I found this on one of the Photography sites that I frequent.  The maps gives some insight into the US and populations.

The Front Porch / Hearing Aids
February 13, 2021, 10:05:22 PM
This past week my wife and I each got a set of hearing aids.  The place where my wife retired from has a good insurance policy that covers hearing aids up to $4,000 for each of us so we agreed that we take advantage of it while it was available to us.  We went to get tested and finally got fitted this past thursday.  I can now hear things that I never heard before.  Like a light switch making a strange sound. The other day when we were checking out of a grocery store I mumbled something with my back turned away from her and she heard everything that I said. I don't know if this is a good thing.

The pieces that fit in the back of the ear have blue tooth so we are able to connect my cell phone to the devices and listen to music, podcast or whatever.  We got the one that recharge so we don't have to change the batteries.

Now all we need is for this state to get some vaccines so that we can protected.  We are on several wait list but we have been checking with the state, the local hospital, and pharmacies and nothing is available.
