It finally came up!!!
Quote from: LennG on April 19, 2024, 03:06:53 PMNot to change the meaning of this topic, but some of the great 'quotes' and other meanings remind me of things.
As we get older, especially myself, there are times when I just sit back and try and recall the decisions of my life, good or bad, and think how things might have been different if I did something a different way.
You know, shoulda, woulda, and coulda.
But what I do try to do and have tried this my entire life. is no matter how stupid or messed up I might have acted or did, to keep doing that same thing is just ridiculous. As we say, we need to learn from our mistakes and hopefully improve on them. I have tried to live by this. Sometimes it is easy and sometimes, either stupidity, or just plain stubbornness has prevented me from doing this, but over the years, I have learned and I'll be damned if I do those same stupid things again.

I used to not like them before I met my wife, but I grew to like them over time as she had cats when I met her and we have had other cats since.I forgot that scene, and it made me laugh. I thought it was going to be Focker saying he milked a cat, or when the cat crapped in Jack's mother's remains. Movie was a classic
Dogs are way better in most ways, as they are more affectionate, loyal, fun, playful etc. But they are also much higher maintenance than cats. Our cats are pretty affectionate too. I know some cats are kind of unfriendly and nasty, but not ours. There are nasty dogs too.
I am reminded of this scene from "Meet The Parents." I find it amusing:

Quote from: LennG on April 19, 2024, 03:23:12 PMNot that being old enough to remember some of these people is great, but the times we lived thru, first with Elvis and then the Beatles, to put it simply, there will never be anything like that ever again. Swift has her millions and millions of fans, but the craziness that surrounded, first Elvis, and then the maniacal fans towards the Beatles. There was nothing, and will ever be anything, to compare with that --- EVER.
That is not to say, as the thread asked, who was bigger in their time, but again, the Beatles are still big today, over 60 years later.
Quote from: Ed Vette on April 19, 2024, 01:21:38 PMIt made me wonder what the cat sensed that night. It happened the exact time we were discussing it. Nothing the rest of the night. Cats seem to like me and will brush up against me and let me pet them. Although I've never had a cat as part of the family.
Quote from: Ed Vette on April 19, 2024, 09:44:34 AMI started investing in Gold when it was a contrarian play at $180 an ounce. The US Central Bank was selling Gold to keep the price low. There were several mining companies that did well over time but the real money was made in coin. Unfortunately, purchasing and storing gold bars was unattainable. The Highs and Lows of Miners is not a good long term investment.

Quote from: y_so_blu on April 19, 2024, 12:17:50 AMImpossible to say, as I wasn't around for Elvis or the Beatles. And I couldn't have picked Swift out of a police lineup until she started dating Travis Kelce.
Quote from: y_so_blu on April 19, 2024, 12:15:05 AMThe study of history is a powerful antidote to contemporary arrogance. It is humbling to discover how many of our glib assumptions, which seem to us novel and plausible, have been tested before, not once but many times and in innumerable guises, and discovered to be, at great human cost, wholly false.

Quote from: Bob In PA on April 18, 2024, 02:05:52 PMThose other teams believe what I believe... pick six is good slot to be in this year. BobWhen you consider the top shelf (4 QBs, 3 WRs, 1 TE, and at least 1 OT) that would all be top 1 or 2 picks in many other drafts, you can see why. Hence, if trading down, don't trade down too far unless you get a ridiculous offer that includes multiple pics in the first half of the draft, coupled with first round draft picks in coming drafts
