LOL......guess is our generation......I have to be DRESSED to go to the store.....I recall ONCE taking my husband to work in my jammies and praying my car wouldn’t break down or anything. I feel like a sneak to put on my coat and boots to walk the dogs with jammies underneath. it’s all about guilt. I do love lounging in jogging suits or jammies that look like them around the house, but I don’t go out in them. which makes me less productive on some days.

“jogging suits”

Mr.T5 used to call those winter cutoffs whenever he’d see someone wearing one in the grocery store, Home Depot, etc.

Cojones indeed, but not really surprising-it just goes to show he is still a legend in his own mind.

I’ve got to go get some charcoal for the grill and a couple of other things-back soon...

for the last ten years or so there has been this guy who wears jogging pants of some type....for years a como look, to church on Sunday mornings. I always thought of it as his protest at being dragged to mass. NO ONE else picked up on his “look”....jeans yes, jogging pants NO.

I wasn’t too concerned about who won last night -I would have preferred the Colts just because I’ve been subjected to the Katrina’s for so long here in the Sanctuary city... but have to admit seeing Drew Brees with his baby son afterwards was heartwarming. They had the earphones on his head and Drew kept kissing his little hand.....it was adorable.

Please...all of us have heard way too much Katrina garbage......However..For serious football fans the two issues that dominated the last week.... Mannings 'legacy', and the Pursuit of a Perfect Season thankfully died a violent death last night.

Manning will have to have a Tom Brady run to ever be considered among Bradshaw,Montana et al...

In all fairness, I think if you had the evacuees in your backyard, you'd be less than enthusiastic to have them running up and down your street, yelling Who Dat? They won because they outplayed the Colts in the 4th and the theory held that the better defense took the championship, in the end.
St. Peyton has already collected at least 2 MVP awards. And he's nowhere near retirement so I think his legacy isn't done yet.

Nicely done SG - Payton is a class act and I doubt there were that many Katrinas in NJ.... they took over Houston, including their gangs - the schools had to have police presence daily. and they are still raking in the freebies here - free rent, free electricity, not sure about the free nails and tatoos though, that part might have expired

I wish they could go home

Iran continues to be iterative in its pronouncements of the coming destruction of the West.

May the perpetual light shine upon him.

I believe he meant to do well and help people, even if he didn’t quite understand what it was he was doing.

senility is not a pretty sight in any of our “senior” politicians in Washington or anywhere. he is the second to die in office, these things do come in threes.
