Torpedo

And you didn't read your welcome message, did you? Oh wait, there's no welcome message anymore

Wishful thinking for "el presi". Either way what el Madrid (nobody in Spain calls it el Real) needs is a renewed defense. Ramos is getting old and coarser, Varane loses concentration, Marcello takes longer than needed to be back in his place, Carvajal is not tall enough to defend well the fauls and corners, and we don't have good replacements in the bench. We were doing good enough thanks to Cristiano helping to make a goal more than the rival, but that's over. Bad times ahead

If she just grew a voice and learnt to sing ?

you need to explain that in European notation 1.432m is one thousand and four hundred thirty two meters, not one point four hundred

Kovacic is an excellent midfield, but he has to compete in the RM with Kroos, Casemiro and Modric, so the coach wouldn't grant him titularity (if that means the same in English) so he preferred being lent to the Premier. I'm not very sure he'll end up sold, afaik the RM is keeping the rights. This year is going to be a really tough one for the RM, I foresee some kind of debacle

Happy Birthday!!

RIP Aretha ?

And now Fernando Alonso announces that he's leaving Formula 1. Probably a wise move since there's not much action outside Ferrari and Mercedes to produce a winner car. He's goal is winning the Triple Crown so he'd run the Indianapolis 500. Hopefully this means that Carlos Sainz could have his seat at McLaren.

In any case tending to hardish

My brother and sister in law weren't in that bridge for a delay shopping with a friend. Otherwise their plan was crossing it at the time it happened. RIP all the victims, very sorry for their families and friends. Definitely a horrible way to go, Wayne.

The design of the driver doesn't really seem "pure" planar magnetic But I like the idea of a single driver. I've never been a fan of crossovers and complicated frequency solutions. Anyway, I need a new pair of IEMs as I need a shot in the foot. If any of you gets them, please report, still curious.

IMO the jubilee and the DJ belong together. The flute has been also a classic trademark of the DJ. So the classic way to go would be having both, but then it's what one prefers. OTOH I'm not sure how would that look on a larger size watch, I only have references on a 36mm watch. For the pics I think that the jubilee "needs" the fluted bezel, it looks a bit strange on a smooth bezel. When using the oyster bracelet, both bezels look OK, maybe the smooth one a bit better, maybe for it's the combination in the Explorer, and other models.

Poor spoilt Stroll boy. I don't think any other decent pilot is going to like driving by his side, and he's not that good, so FI is facing more troubles than it already has. More or less like what it's happening to Williams. Then we have the Carlos Sainz. He's a good driver, has a lot of potential and more brains than most fast drivers at his age. He would be royally screwed if going to Red Bull to be Verstappen's sideman. I don't think that'd be acceptable for him, and going to Williams if Stroll leaves isn't a good career move either. I wonder if Williams could stay in races if Mr Daddy Stroll leaves and shuts the dough flux. Lots of drama indeed.

Yup, that doesn't seem particularly comfy with no armrests, plus the angle and height can be a back crusher.

He’s probably feeling as Alonso did in McLaren when Hamilton was the favorite wonder boy. Probably not his best move to win titles, but he’ll have more peace of mind.

This. Best wishes!

In the end we all are

Thanks! I was am in serious doubt about my sanity

what if you just go fuck yourself in a very dark room.

OMG, how much/what do you drink? In just one week or you'd need some more time?

It's funny how much that song reminds of Lou Reed's "Walk on the Wild Side"

Yes, this deserves pics so "we" can decide

Happy Birthday, Todd!!! Thanks for your gatekeeping. I wish you enjoy a wonderful day.
