Hoping the PA travel guys can help an old man (and the woman he doesn't deserve) spend their money wisely on a trip out to see the sites in Philadelphia this summer. I've been itching to see the touristy stuff in the Philly city center for a while now. The bell, Independence Hall, the whole...

My choice is usually an easy one, but with Dalvin out this week I'm very tempted to start both Chubb AND Hunt this weekend against Miami.  I originally had Golden Tate in place of Hunt, but given the injuries on NYG it should be easy for CHI to focus in on Tate.  I don't think I've ever started...

Todd Palin files for divorce - "Incompatibility of Temperament" I've been waiting out that marriage for 31 years

When it comes to the East Coast I haven't been north of Miami...but I'm looking to change that next year with a two week binge getting in as much US History as possible. Obviously I could spend a whole year checking things out, but I wanted to leverage the "been there, done that" folks on the...

Went two pages deep and didn't see anything. If you're looking for a movie that takes a big steaming dump on wokeness and politically correct culture, you'll find Shaft 2 your cup of tea. If you're the type of dude that clutches his pearls at the thought of toxic masculinity, Shaft 2 will not...

Let's Go Saints!

Went to Ticketmaster to check on some Zac Brown (wife is a fan) pre-sale tickets and it led to a discussion with my wife about our concert-going preferences.  They have a mosh-pit style setup in front of some reserved seating, and general admission lawn in the back.  Found that neither of us...

I'm an old school driver, so it's ingrained in me to give other drivers a thank you wave when warranted (another driver lets you merge in, a slow driver in the left lane gets over to let you pass, etc.).  I used to see it from other drivers all the time, but for at least the last few years I...

I thought there was going to be some effort to limit the number of Trump threads on the board.  Seems like there's a new one everyday. There's a significant number of people on the board that would be delighted if there was a politics forum so that the FFA could get back to talking about Yoga...

Anyone use a company similar to PODS that they'd like to recommend (or not recommend)? Looking for a company to drop a storage box on my driveway, pick it up 2 days later, and hold it for a couple of months...then drop it at my new place.  Looking to declutter / make it easier to put down the...

My wife and I own our home outright and were thinking about moving.  While our house is on the market, we'll be looking for a new home.  Our concern is that we might find a home that we like prior to selling our old house.  If we buy the new house before our old house sells, will we get hit with...

Hey gang, the Zac Brown Band is playing Summerfest this year and if you're part of their fan club you get access to a presale code for tickets.  Normally I'd just join the fan club, but it's $40.  If someone is already part of the "Zamily" and you'd like to help out a fellow FBG, please send me...

Interesting new show on MTV.  It's like you're watching a Hallmark movie and violence breaks out. plot is pretty simple.  Two college girls investigate sexual assault cases on campus then put on ninja outfits and go vigilante on the perpetrator. The leads are likeable and the show clips along...

I remember a few years back that there was a site to create an animated video where you supplied the text that these two roughly drawn animated characters would speak to each other (kind of Fisher Price meets South Park).  I've done some Google searching and must not be entering in the right...

What's going on with khaki pants lately?  Went pants shopping yesterday and every pair had limited room in the crotch.  Even though I was wearing a pretty snug pair of boxer briefs it was a meat show down there. i figure a lot of us wear khakis at work.  Can anyone recommend a khaki brand/type...

My vote is really up for grabs. I'd rank how my vote is going to as: 1. Bernie as Democratic Nominee and anyone as his VP except Hillary 2.  Third party candidate Bernie and anyone as his VP except Hillary 3.  Third party candidate on the middle-right (Romney, likely) 4.  Trump and anyone...

Ran into a really weird tax situation and thought you might be able to help.  Figured it didn't hurt to ask.  I've tried to boil it down to as low of numbers as possible. 6/30/2006 - Bought 1 share of Acme Corp.  Grant date 7/1/2005.  Fair Market Value (FMV) on grant date was 44.64.  FMV on...

The Nielsen people talked me into doing a couple of months of reporting what shows I watch. If there's a show you like that's getting poor ratings, post it in here and I'll give it a view and mark it down as a "watch". FBG's helping FBG's.
