I was complaining about going to bed last night. I hate trying to sleep. During the day I can multi task and forget about my knee but at night laying there in the dark it's the only thing that has my attention and there is no way I can ever get comfortable. I had not had anything NEAR a good nights sleep for a month. Ibu, Tylenol, NyQuill nothing worked
So DJ say's "Have you tried my CBD oil?" WHAT? I had never thought of that. DAAAAA! Am I that stupid? (Don't answer that Clark). So I took 10 drops before bed and
ZZZZZZZZZZZZ. yea I rolled over a few times (cats and dog issues) but I was comfortable OMG!!
************************
Meanwhile - there was a post on the TGCTours forum where a guy was complaining about the game saying basically that after 796 hours of play the game is garbage.
I gave POST OF THE DAY award to the second post
1. I can't believe it's taken you 796 hours to come to the conclusion the game is garbage. Any normal person would have come to that conclusion far sooner if that's how they feel about the game.
2. If you get mad at this game for shooting -13 one round and -3 the next, god help you if you ever played real golf.
This reminded me of a post DJ put on facebook which is SO SO true its sad AND funny
Q: How many people does it take to change a lightbulb in a Facebook group?
1 to change the light bulb and to post that the light bulb has been changed.
14 to share similar experiences of changing light bulbs and how the light bulb could have been changed differently.
7 to caution about the dangers of changing light bulbs.
17 purists who use candles and are offended by light bulb discussions.
6 to argue over whether it's 'lightbulb' or 'light bulb'.
Another 6 to condemn those 6 as stupid.
22 to tell THOSE 6 to stop being jackasses.
2 industry professionals to inform the group that the proper term is 'lamp'.
15 know-it-alls who claim they were in the industry, and that 'light bulb' is perfectly correct.
249 to post meme's and gif's (several are of someone eating popcorn with the words added, “I’m just here for the comments.”)
19 to post that this page is not about light bulbs and to please take this discussion to a light bulb page.
11 to defend the posting to this page saying that we all use light bulbs and therefore the posts are relevant here.
12 to post F.
8 to ask what F means.
16 to post 'Following' but there's 3 dots at the top right that means you don't have to.
3 to say "can't share"
2 to reply "can't share from a closed group"
36 People to post pics of their own light bulbs.
15 People to post "I can't see S$%^!" and use their own light bulbs.
6 to report the post or PM an admin because someone said "f÷×$"
4 to say "Didn't we go through this already a short time ago?".
13 to say "Do a search on light bulbs before posting questions about light bulbs".
1 to bring politics into the discussion by adding that (insert politician of choice) isn't the brightest bulb. This usually takes place within the first three comments.
50 more to get into personal attacks over their political views.
5 admins to ban the light bulb posters who took it all too seriously.
1 late arrival to comment on the original post 6 months later and start it all over again.
AND THAT my friends is facebook.

And then there is the city government. Has anybody noticed that in the past 6 years the roads in Columbus have been getting better and better and look what happened. Now BECAUSE we have so many smooth roads ne're do wells have arrived and are robbing homes. DAMN YOU GOOD ROADS! Bad roads they would go elsewhere.
Yea yea - everybody wants Farmham (Hwy89) fixed because it a hellish street with holes everywhere. I guarantee you when the city mistakenly fixes the road people will complain about speeders. OH IT'S TOO SMOOTH!!!
******************
SURVIVOR tonight. Worst Big Brother I can think of this year. Jackson who will probably win was a prick bully that cheated and his parents sued or are suing CBS for making him look like a dick (which is is). The only hope is for a jury that is also pissed off. Stupid game play for not breaking up a showmance which is THE NUMBER ONE RULE. Never ever let a showmance go far.
Survivor season 39 starts tonight and is still the #1 non-scripted show which has had GREAT season lately. Lots of changes. I have read that Survivor 40 will have a cast of all winners from the past.

Starting to fossilize
I don't know why a post from July was emailed out by blogger and I wish it had not - that issue has been resolved. so . . . stand down.
******
Another issue was cleared up last night. As I try to be a more optimistic individual I found out I was blocked by a person when we had a disagreement about our City Attorney.
This person said some pretty hurtful things and I said I could not believe our City Attorney said these things and defended him. Paul is one of my top 3 favorite attorneys and I really appreciated his presence and I was rather pissed off.
Now we find out that the person that HATES Columbus did not know we had a different City Attorney and the rabid hate was against the old City Attorney. We PM'd each other and I explained that many many of the "old guard" are gone and Columbus actually has a government that thinks, discusses and has actual knowledge. NOT the cronies that ran Columbus for decades.
I told this individual that I completely understood WHY people hate the Columbus government because of past indiscretions but it's changed dramatically in the past 6(?) years. SADLY I know way way too many people that loath our government for things that happened 10+ years ago. Not sure how to change that.
*********************
Moving along. People take their health for granted and MAN, when it fails it is MUCH worse then you think. Yea I have a minor (I hope) situation with my knee (MRI Monday) but because of my knee my entire leg muscles are sore and cramping and my shoulders hurt from trying to roll over in bed NOT using my legs (try it sometime).
TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF. DO NOT TAKE YOUR HEALTH FOR GRANTED. 24 hour pain is a PAIN! And it's just one knee that seems to be effecting my whole body as other parts step up, and I was pretty darn healthy a month ago . . . I thought. I can't wait for this to be over.
*********************
The Brewers have the tie breaker with Washington so a tie is a win. St' Louis is still out there but they need to lose and the cubs have given up.
****************
Winning a lottery makes you MUCH happier. There was a study done years and years ago that said winning a major lottery did NOT make you happier. Yet it seems that the study was done with only 22 winners.
A newer, more scientific study was conducted in Germany and it found that winning a large lottery DID make you happier and in fact the more you won the happier you were.
Makes sense to me!
+++++
Packers opened as 3 point favs over Philadelphia and its up to -4.5 now My Bridgejumper system is not on the game. I started Bridgejumper in 2001 and is 394-254 for 60.9% I've been told 60% is impossible in the NFL in the long run. Well . . . . . .
Only one "C" game this week. "C" games win 57% if the time so it's not GREAT The LAChargers should cover 16.5 over the Dolphs. Not many plays in the 18 years when a very BAD team is a huge dog at home. Normally when a team has been getting kicked and comes home as a big dog . . . they prove they really ARE bad.
++++++
Donald Trump now has the same approval rating as Obama did at the same time in Presidency.
That's enough for now - I need to stand up every 10 minutes of I start to fossilize. As long as I keep moving I'm fine.
STRONG storms early Wednesday morning! Take care

September is very good for The Crew
WOW - when will people start acknowledging Craig Councill is a genius when he has a large roster.
Every year (until next year) MLB expands rosters to 40 players and here are the last 2 seasons W/L totals for the Brewers
April 28-26
May 34-26
June 25-26
July 28-26
August 25-27
September 31-10
YIKES - all of a sudden this year Councill has his bullpen locked and loaded. It took 5 months to realize last years diamonds all sucked (except for Hader) and now he has a new crew. Suter, Pomeranz, Black (100+ fast ball) Albers, Peralta, Claudio, Hader.
Now we have players coming back. I remember the first week of August when announcers were saying "Lets get through August as September we start getting guys back).
Llast night Woodruff came back after 2 months off with his first pitch hitting 97 mph, his 2nd pitch was 98 and a few pitches later he hit 99. A near perfect outing and the plan is to give him 15-20 more pitches next outing. Since there is no minor league games he has to pitch his way in real games. So far so good.
Hiura and his .938 OPS came back with a hit and while most people think he is horrible at 2B NO - he's not. Yea his arm draws the attention but unlike Moustakas he stops a lot of balls getting into the outfield. I would say he is a major league average 2B. Average range poor arm. Moustakas no range good arm.
Meanwhile - The Cubs have their own injury issues now using their #3 SS. and a horrible last 11 games including 7 vs. the Cards and a 6 game road trip to end the season. The Cubs SUCK on the road at 31-44. The Cards play the Cubs 7 times and play 7 of their last 11 on the road where they have a losing record (36-38). Brewers end with 4 on the road vs. the Reds and Rockies. What an amazing pennant race we have this year AGAIN!!!
Next year lost of new rules that seem to hurt the Brewers. A pitcher HAS to face a minimum of 3 batters unless its the end of an inning.
The number of players on a team will increase to 26 for most of the season and 28 in September. It will help during the season with the average starting in MLB now going 5.7 innings (slightly less surprisingly in the AL). No more 10 day injury list as teams found a way to manipulate it as it will go to 15 days.
