You need to do it before you get to the point you'll always regret not doing it. Also I feel like you can always go back to teaching....


This is true. I guess I could always do both for a while...teach during the day then go to open mics at night

Even if the house votes for impeachment, you need a 2/3rd majority from the senate afterwards. That will never happen...even if Trump shot someone in the middle of 5th Avenue.

The left is wasting their time and resources focusing on this. I agree that Trump should be impeached, because hes a fucking idiot. But the senate will never vote for it. The 2 party system is far too more important to America than doing the right thing. And thats a very sad fact.

About the only thing the man has ever said that I agree with.


But hes addicted to speed. You remember the picture of him with his taco bowl saying I love Hispanics? If you look in the drawer behind him there are BOXES and BOXES of high strength Sudafed that cant even be purchased in the US.

Many suspect that he crushes it up and snorts it so it acts similar to speed. It would definitely explain a lot...

Alec Guinness was far from an unknown back then. Peter Cushing and James Earl Jones werent either. Ewan Mcgregor, Natalie Portman, Christopher Lee and Liam Neeson werent nobodies. And lets not forget Samuel L. Jackson.


Samuel L Jackson was terrible in the prequels. Literally awful. Remember when those movies came out? He was shit on for years.

James Earl Jones doesnt count. Was only the voice. Natalie Portman was also a poor casting choice.

Liam Neeson is the rare exception. He was great as Qui Gon.

Worth it. Theyre pricy, yes. But Apple finally did something right in terms of an audio product. People are speculating theyll dive deeper in the future because of how well made the pros are. Reviews online for them are VERY good, which is what made me try em.

Ive always hated Apples headphones. The wires ones that come with iPhones/iPods have been trash ever since they were originally made. Terrible fit, and the hard plastic hurt my ears.

I skipped the AirPods for the same reason. Terrible uncomfortable fit.

But damnnnnn the Pros are incredible. In ear headphones, that have a super secure fit. Comes with 3 different sized tips, and can even scan/analyze if youre wearing the correct size. The Pros have tiny microphones on them to allow for a filtered noise cancellation which is SUPER nice. But what actually made me buy these was the Transparency mode.

It works like the opposite of noise cancellation. Instead of filtering out outside noise, and actually uses those built in mics to filter IN outside noise so you can still be aware of your surroundings while wearing them. This feature is perfect for people who run or bike outside, as headphones can be dangerous on trails if you cant hear people biking behind you to pass.

Any here check em out? The audio quality is REALLY good too. Drivers kick for sure.

Never got the original AirPods because I hate the feeling of that hard plastic on those shitty headphones the iPhone comes with. Have never liked Apple headphones.

But these are in ear...and fit SO well. Theyre super light and snug and dont move around in your ear.

And the features. Holy crisp. Noise cancellation AND transparency mode? Superrr useful. Transparency mode uses mics on the AirPods to pickup outside sound and filter it into the headphone speakers so you can still hear whats going on around you. Great for exercise and biking...safer to use while on the trails.

Anyone else pick em up? Theyre pricey...but SO worth it.

Have Xfinity internet, and they have their crappy Modem/Router combo. Bought a separate router(TP-Link AC1750) to use instead.

I sent the Xfinity Gateway to Bridge Mode, connected an Ethernet cable from the modem to the internet port on my new Router.

It recognizes the connection but nothing will actually connect to the internet.

What am I doing wrong? Should I use my router as an access port and not switch my Xfinity router into Bridge Mode maybe? Will that be as fast?
