Wow. The FTC announced a rule banning non-compete agreements nationwide, and invalidating most existing non-compete agreements. Link There are some exceptions, like senior executives, and it is definitely going to face immediate challenges in courts, but what a major win for American workers.

I have a friend, T, that owns a business. I'm very familiar with it and it' is worth a significant amount of money. Covid caused the yearly income to decrease, but the overall value is still solid. His distribution took a hit, so this year he was cash poor. I loaned him some money with a...

Your life depends on it.   You have time to change clothes and put on some running shoes, but then you have to run as far from where you are as possible.   You don't get to know how far is far enough to survive.  No walking.    How far are you gonna make it?  I think in my current state of...

A dog killed an infant monkey, so the monkeys killed over 250 dogs and completely cleaned out all of the dogs in a village, and now they're moving on to kids.  I just thought people should know this.   Don't screw with a monkey. link

Any FBGs a  member of the Eagles?   Do you have a queen of hearts drawing?   I assumed that every location did this, since all of the ones around here do.   I just found out that not all of them have one.   Ours is about $5000 tonight.   I've never even gotten to pull a card, so I'm thinking of...

Link Patty Murray speaking for permanent Daylight Saving Time on the Senate floor.   She introduced a bipartisan bill with Marco Rubio. There does not appear to be any actual opposition, but this bill hasn't gotten to a vote.   I think this is the third time this has been introduced.  19...

https://www.rawstory.com/florida-colleges-and-universities/ Gov. Ron DeSantis signed legislation requiring students, faculty and staff at Florida's public universities and colleges to register their political views with the state as a way to encourage "intellectual diversity." I'm sure this...

Just wondering if the stronger recommendation to get a flu shot this year is making an impact.

Once you're fairly confident that you're in the playoffs (or if you've clinched already with several games to go) what are your strategies to position you the best for the playoffs?  I'm not talking about trying to maneuver to play the weakest team.  I'm talking about roster moves that set you...

This is awesome.    Chalking tires in order to enforce time limits and issue parking tickets is both a trespass and an unconstitutional search and seizure.  It only affects the 6th Circuit, but there will be other challenges based on this. Clearly, these judges were previously lawyers who had...

One of your last chances to watch MNF on a dirt baseball infield.

Got money or all sorts of stuff to trade.  Help me out.

My daughter is interested in photography and has taken a couple digital photography classes.  She's turning 14 and will be a freshman in high school.  For her birthday I'd like to get her a good DSLR camera and a couple lenses, as well as some photo editing software.  I don't know anything about...

A minor victory, but the EPA was ordered to produce the studies Pruitt relied on to refute climate change.  Hint:  they either don't exist or aren't credible. Two more of his top aides resigned over the last 24 hours. Pruitt is now facing his 12th ethics investigation.  His scandals include...

Another one of these deals. Best bartender in Western Washington. Guy's a really good dude. Adam, the bald guy from Tides Tavern. I think he's currently in 3rd place. You have to register an email address to vote: http://best.king5.com/best/bartender/people/western-washington

Struggled with Eli Manning and his interceptions all season. Started Collins to make the championship. Tebow has a great matchup and mostly it will piss off just about everyone in my league if I win with Tebow starting at QB. It's just too much fun not to do it.

I know, I know... Never vetoed a trade. No league voting on trades, but commish (me) has authority to act in best interest of league under the rules. Redraft PPR. Start 2 RB, 3 WR, no flex. Can there be any justification for Larry Fitzgerald for Reggie Bush? Overall, Fitz is ranked 11...
