Anybody else getting absolutely hammered with robo calls today? I've gotten 10 in the last hour and a half from "Molly from Amazon." It's insane. And if you don't answer they leave a voicemail.

I don't get robo calls nearly as often as I do text messages send to, like, 30 similar phone numbers offering sex websites. Happens half a dozen times a day, minimum. Incredibly annoying.

We can switch numbers if it bothers you that much 8-)

I think this happened at the same press conference today when the Police were talking about the sunbathers. This is all very Australian.

We kinda had a real day of being Queensland there for a hot minute.

If I had a penny for every time I'd skinny dipped in the nasho...
I'd have somewhere in the range of 5-10c

I forgot about that place. I've done takeout a few months ago and it was good. I remember it took a LONG time but worth it.

Yes, they are good too! And they get super busy—they have you sign up for time slots basically.

Would love to hear what either of you think of Kim’s or Thai Bangkok if you ever go

Anybody know anything about SKYGEN USA located in Menominee Falls? One of the only places I’ve heard from during my job search but I can’t really remember applying.

Got to experience my baby’s first flu/24-hour vomit bug. Basically threw up 10-15 times last night and is finally feeling better. Man, that was not fun for anyone, especially her.

I was sent back from the future to destroy it, but other than that no

From my experience, I get hit 2x as hard 2 days later. Like my 1 year old is pretty happy and active, if he is grumpy and lethargic, 2 days later i can't move. Good luck lol

Perfect summer day, upcoming holiday weekend.... took off at noon (well I work from home so I am "off" whenever I want). A couple of ice cold beers this afternoon on the deck, fire up the grill later and enjoy the Brewers game with more ice cold beers. Keep it simple today, beer brats. Repeat tomorrow with steaks instead of brats and add in the Bucks game tomorrow night.

This is shaping up to be a great holiday weekend. I was at my parents cabin near WI Rapids last weekend and it rained the entire time.

My in-laws lake house is on Waubesa (so no fighting traffic), the daughter is over her stomach bug, the weather is amazing, and the potential Bucks win makes me absolutely jazzed. It’s been a stressful month or two, I needed this weekend.

So, Sha'carri Richardson smoked weed and now doesn't get to run the 100m at the Olympics (and maybe not at all). I don't smoke myself, but I'm so sick of stupid suspensions, arrests, etc. stemming from it. Sigh.

Rules are rules and she knew them. Just wish they'd change them.
