I fell asleep and had the gdamn glass balancing on the arm of me couch fill in the blanks

Hiya, JPT

Sunday 87 (I see that was chosen, is that allowed? If not then 88)

*Warning: Product Promotion* turn away now it’s your last chance! So I spilled red wine on my apartment’s light beige carpet. Did my best to dab it up and clean it despite my inebriated state. ‘Twas an utter fail. And there the red stain sat for about 5 months. I had to avoid paying for a new carpet when moving out so I went online and came across ‘Wine Away’ (they spent decades coming up with that name). I could only buy it one place in town and so I did. Wee bottle, but I did as instructed, spraying about 25 times and after 20 minutes I scrubbed with a dry towel and ‘fuck me runnin’ if the 5-month old embedded red wine stain didn’t disappear. Some got on my Asian rug too, and I thankfully got the same result. 10/10 highly recommended. Not that any of YOU ever spilled red wine SC

You say that like it’s a bad thing.

Great Saturday night song. It’s impossible not to like this..or to not be humming it hours later.

The media outlets were buzzing about this story. Mary Louise “Louise” McBee, a principled, respected, and effective University of Georgia administrator and 6-term state legislator, died on Tuesday, March 2 at the age of 96. SC

Carlester Smith, known to a generation of Annapolis (MD) residents as “The Walking Man” from years of waving at passersby and flashing a bright smile as he picked up trash on daily speedwalks, died Monday at age 63. For years, Smith, who went by many nicknames, was a staple along West Street. With trash bags tucked into his pants, he cleaned parking lots and washed windows, earning himself some money. SC

Interesting thing(s) about the list of 67 NHL players who have scored 5 goals in a game. Up until 2 March 1982, every single player (45 of them) who had accomplished the feat was Canadian-born. Then the next four in succession were from Sweden-USA-Finland-Sweden, Pavelich being the American as noted. Then it was exclusively Canadians making the list again until March 1992. Odd, that little insurrection of non-Canadians there, don’t ya think? Well, rule changes etc seem to have made the 5-goal game a rarity now. Since March 1996 it has happened only 5 times, and not a single one from a Canuck! SirC

Excuse my pedantry but shouldn’t you have to BE a widow/er to be posted here, rather than having the event that made you a widow give you access to this thread? Otherwise literally EVERY death could be posted here if they left behind a spouse. Anyway, she wasn’t a widow until her spouse died. What she was was a mayor. This post is in the wrong thread and that’s that. I’ve no idea where it should be but I know where it shouldn’t. Sir Charms!

Good thing she was sitting when she heard the news.

Damn They’ll probably bury him 6”
