It rained in Vegas, so now every single post about Vegas includes at least one shot of the flooding at the Linq. So it was when it was Imperial Palace. So it is now. So it shall always be.

So is NBC's upcoming "Newlyweds" basically "Dharma and Greg" but with Jamie Lee Curtis and two kids thrown in?
The number of times that I will see this posted in West Wing fandom groups will be at least a three-digit number. #S2E20

Character who works in the hospital walks into a bodega on Valentine's Day. February is sweeps month. So that means the place is getting robbed, someone is getting shot, and the hospital worker is going to have to save someone who accidentally got shot in the robbery. And... I was right. ER S3E15
It seems like the Pittsburgh Pirates end up playing every September 19. September 19 is International Talk Like a Pirate Day.
We just finished watching “Supergirl” on HBO Max. Please respect our privacy during this difficult time.
What happened to Sisko and Bashir's combadges in "Past Tense"? It was mentioned at the beginning of the first episode that they were robbed, but by whom? And then what happened? Were they just melted down or did someone do something interesting with those combadges? #ds9
The Kennedy Center Honors are typically announced in the June/July timeframe. Last year, it was August in the midst of the chaos related with POTUS. I suspect there will not be an Honors for 2026, which is a sad break in the tradition that not even COVID could accomplish.
I remember when The Price Is Right added a space to the car value on "Any Number". And then there are places that are definitely gouging right now. "Regular gas prices in California hit an average of $5.92 a gallon on Friday, according to AAA, while the average diesel price stood at $7.98."
Surprised the CA DMV would let this plate exist, but then they probably weren't looking in the mirror at the time.
If you know anyone who works at El Pollo Loco, take pity on them today. There's a coupon for today only to get a free two piece meal (dark meat) with purchase of a drink. Yes, getting a $10 meal because you bought a $3-ish drink is happening, and those workers are going to be TIRED!
I have a real chance in the next few days of going to a Whataburger for the first time. I just have to convince my wife to go with me.

My local power company just texted me about an unexpected power outage that occurred seven hours ago and that lasted less than twenty minutes. (golf clap) Such customer service!
When Chase had their 100k point offer for the Chase Sapphire Preferred, I caved and got it, even with the $95 annual fee. This week, I booked a flight where the few points I already had were transferred at 1.2x value & we got out $100 annual hotel credit. This year's benefits have paid off already.
Seen in Redlands, CA. If you ever want that fresh, new Picasso look...
It's interesting that California is just expending this for three years instead of making it permanent. Of course, we also took 10 years after Hollingsworth v. Perry to get rid of Prop 8, so that actually tracks.

If this happens, there will be a group of kids who won't remember the names of the Great Lakes by HOMES, but instead by SHAME.
Since we didn’t save the cheerleader, are we too late to save the world?
I just saw something that made me realize this year will be the 25th anniversary of the September 11 attacks in America. 😳 On a related note, if you have Apple TV, you simply must watch the recording of "Come From Away" that is there. The show has every emotion you want, and is a technical wonder.
