Say a prayer for our family tonight, my Mother in law found out earlier today she did not have insurance to cover her storm damage. My brother in law and I will be doing the repairs beginning this weekend.

She's had a rough couple of years, her husband passed a year ago and my wifes older sister has been diagnosed with psychosis/schizophrenia. She's beyond stressed but this is where we get to be a blessing. I'll get firewood and she'll get repairs, we just need a slight break in the weather this weekend. That's where your prayers and best wishes come into play!
What type of repair work/damage?

There is also a lot of evidence that Kratom helps millions of people...and scheduling it is only going to hurt people like me...badly.

Mixing any substances is always deadly and people doing that are dumbasses trying to get wasted. I am sick of getting penalized for other peoples stupidity.

I understand your angst. With my back problems, I would often ask for a few pills to keep for when I had a flare up. If I could calm the nerves early on, I could often overcome it in a couple of days, but if I had to wait for the doctor to prescribe it, then it was often too late, and I would be in pain for weeks or months. Of course, the doctor knew better than me, and I would seldom get what I needed. As you said, I was primarily being punished for the people who were misusing.
 
Another benefit of the portal players is that they only get a free transfer one time right? So essentially you get to evaluate a guy with college level film vs. HS, and don't have to pander to him because his leverage is gone once he transfers in. To me this is part of the equation we saw play out this year where CJH didn't have to worry about Hooker/Milton transferring again based on the depth chart (unless they wanted to transfer down anyway).

Absolutely! I think that's a huge component. It's almost better to miss on the 5 star divas out of HS and get them when they transfer out after their freshman year. Then you've got some sense of security there.
 
Losing Tolan sucks but I'm more disappointed in losing West. I want all the pass rushers
we lost no one that we never had. You can not offer today get tomorrow. These guys been committed elsewhere at one time or another. We are not that good yet to do the overnight miracle signings. We will see how it plays out I guess.
 
Did Spencer Rattler mistake USC for Scar?

Somebody tells Spencer that there are two USC's and he picked the one in South Carolina....

Nicotine is actually more addictive.
It’s easier to obtain. Much more physically and psychologically addictive. It’s just more socially acceptable.

Not a deadly withdrawal like alcohol. My Dad was an alcoholic, ruined his family relationships. However, his nicotine addiction is what killed him. Lung cancer. I have a significant family history of alcoholism on my father’s side, however I have lost way more family to tobacco related diseases.

From a healthcare burden standpoint, tobacco (nicotine) addiction has killed more people than all the alcohol and illicit substances combined. It’s killed more Americans than the total of every war we have fought in combined. The cost of taking care of the health related disruption caused by tobacco/nicotine/vaping costs billions annually in the USA alone.

Every addictive substance has its own highlights.
I've lost 10 friends to opiates before they were 30, and 3 relatives to them in accidental overdoses. Comparing the two is not fair. Tobacco will not completely destroy you and your families lives in a very short time span. Yes, over time, tobacco will kill you. But you won't steal from your grandmother to buy a pack of Kools.
Agree with alcohol. I've seen it destroy so many people and be the trigger for hard drug abuse.
 
Its the same as youtube tv. Its live programing, of course its going to have commercials.
I use streameast or vipbox or stream2watch to stream the obscure sporting events. . . when there is a commercial break, the video just keeps playing of the match. Sometimes a screen pops up and says "event in commercial break."

It's pretty interesting to see what they do during the few minutes of commercial break. They pretty much choreograph the next 5-10mins of telecast.
 
I might see if that game is on YouTube tonight. I just can’t understand how that happens at that level
Apparently Carver is a small Christian college in Georgia. Their women's basketball program had their first season in 2015/2016. The school is a member of the NCCAA ( National Christian College Athletic Association).

I know my experience with opiates is anecdotal. Growing up in Nashville in the 90s, it wasn't an issue. In my 20s in Florida, it was crazy. There were pain clinics on every corner. Most of the friends that died were in service trades and injured at work. Then addiction got them. A good friend got over on me for a few hundred dollars for a stereo system. I didn't even want to put my hands on him. I was just so worried about how far he was gone. He died a year later in a gas station bathroom.
 
What type of repair work/damage?
It hit the back corner of house above a bedroom. The roof was damaged as were the soffit and fascia, they are both gone. We have not been into attic to see if there is any structural issue underneath the sheathing on roof.

She is about an hour and a half north of me in Hendersonville.
