I like the way she carries that racket, I bet she makes an outstanding omelet & pancakes.

Doesn’t look like any dude from my high school. Wondering where said high school was?

The first pic he posted of her with the mullet wasn’t exactly flattering

I'll take the heat for that......she reminds me of a girl in a Motley Crue video....better yet..........a Groopie

You know how the cultures South of ze border do things. Quite different than it is in ze Estados Unidos. It's like bizarro world.

Think i'll just stop there.

I shook Fred's hand one time. I always try to give a strong hand shake but his hands are so big I felt like a 2 year old.

Shook hands with Al Gore, my grandmother had tougher hands and a stronger grip

Yes. I certainly hope it doesn't wind up being used for evil.

I ate dinner with Al and Tipper...........she had a stronger grip than anyone.

That is impressive. Hockey is one 'sport' I know nothing about.

Honestly the only hockey names I even know are Bing Crosby and Wayne Rooney.

We are in a season with technology that will force us to relearn that we, being created in the image of the Triune God, are social creatures who need loving and relational human contact to live fulfilling and successful lives.

Robots just won’t cut it. Perhaps helpful on the margins, but I fear some (or many) will conclude they can replace the need for human contact, particularly in caring for the elderly, disabled or sick, much to their detriment.

With the population/demographic imbalances in 1st world countries, it seems the need for robots to care for the elderly will be a near absolute necessity in the near future. Japan will be the hardest hit with this issue and will get to test it out first. Then will come European countries. The US a bit later, unless immigration solves the demo issue (projections say it will be able to delay it for another generation potentially).

At the end of the day, it will likely hit every country on earth at one point or another. But to your point - it means we need to rethink the multigenerational family model. It may be time to move closer to the latin/south american model of living closer to our parents...grandparents, aunts, uncles... and even having them live with us. The current model of nursing homes, etc will be even sadder once human labor is replaced by much cheaper and better robotic labor. But it's only a matter of time. So I agree we need to rethink our relational models to ensure the human component is strong, especially for our elderly.

These were always so comical and so brutal at the same time.

 

[DD4ME]

Duh - don't care about a 1 seed, but just win.

 

[LaagerVol]

At this point, what could they be doing to turn heads?

 

[DD4ME]

Brace for it

100% agree with your last paragraph.

he really never had hair.......it was a wig/extensions

IF Mr. " Image is everything" would have had a good head on his shoulders, Agassi would've won a lot more Grand Slam titles. He never really got serious about the sport til Around 27 years old...
