How about a distillery and brewery. Grow the grain right on site. And if the land is at the right latitude, we can even grow our own hops.
And we'll have an adult bounce house.
That’s 🔥 the saddest part is our crew didn’t even have a year of law under our belts and we were already dreaming of our escape

Just watched The Family Stone with the kids for the first time. Such a good movie.
From now on I’ll be using the following scale to rate.
1 star - Mike Woodson
2 Star - Archie Miller
3 Star - Tom Crean
4 Star - Kelvin Sampson
5 Star - Bob Knight
Heretic - Tom Crean. Solid Thriller, Hugh Grant is really good in it.
Here - Archie Miller. Interesting concept but just didn’t really work. I usually like her but thought Robin Wright was awful.
The Agency - Tom Crean (not as good as Le Bureau)
1 star - Mike Woodson
2 Star - Archie Miller
3 Star - Tom Crean
4 Star - Kelvin Sampson
5 Star - Bob Knight

I know we are mad at Woodson now, but arch never made the tournament. He’s gotta be the 1 star, no?
Maybe, but it’s my system & I think Woodson is the absolute worst. 😉 Despise him, so no doubt there is more to the system than just wins & losses. Archie would have made the tournament but was zapped by Covid one year, & didn’t have who was arguably the best player in the country with TJD.
Only 5 star system, but I suppose Mike Davis 1.5, Dakich -0.0
Did you finish it? I watched the first few episodes and thought the idea was cute, but didn't laugh at the show.
We finished it and liked it. I view it like a poor man's Only Murders. Not as good as Murders, but still good.

A take on the 20 best TV shows of the year. I haven't seen several. Of the ones I have, The Diplomat is my #1. But I haven't seen Shogun yet, waiting for an extended period so I can binge it and that would be my odds on favorite to be my favorite.

Red One. Heard one podcaster say it’s an instant Christmas classic to others on line say it’s a complete waste. My stoker is a Rock fan so she liked it.
Very high marks for creativity. Santa, his sleigh, and the reindeer like you have never seen them. I thought the sleigh launch with F 35’s in the opening scenes was terrific. The movie deteriorated from there for me. But not for the rest of the family.
The ‘Yeah, we insure that” guy made a terrific Santa.

If you have kids. Beast Games is now on Amazon Prime. Mr. Beast starts with 1000 players, and trying to winnow them down to 1, who will win $5 million. Budget for the series is $100 million.
Worth the watch. A G version of Squid Games but for real.
ETA: You have to watch the end of episode 2. Fascinating psych experiment and insight into human beings.

Highly recommend Say Nothing on Hulu. About the IRA in Northern Ireland in the 70s. Excellent thus far.A take on the 20 best TV shows of the year. I haven't seen several.

Excellent. I got my daughter all fired up for squid 2 and said we’ll binge squid then looked it up and there was sex and shit. It’s been so long I forgot.
Christmas gift from my brother in law...'A Hell of A Storm' by David S. Brown.
" The Battle for Kansas, The End of Compromise, and The Coming of the Civil War". (Scribner)
Three chapters in, and it's a good read. The parallels between then and now are intriguing.
