The video controller kept going back to Cam to see his reactions to the continued slaughter even with him sitting it out now.
I have to admit, Cam was stoic like a pro.
The commentators were saying the Patriots don't get early draft pics for a couple of years to come, so this doesn't look good for their future.

Watching my almost 3 y/o granddaughter opening Christmas presents on Xmas day. Couldn't have asked for anything so cute..

Got a ton of outdoors projects done, including staining our shed and what seemed liked thousands of square feet of retaining walls with 2-3 coats if stain with a brush/roller.

This thread has survived 2020.... so far.

I do have a positive about 2020. The company I work for was forced to let people work from home as a lot of places did. It taught old school management that a call center type environment and 90% of IT can work effectively from home without the need for expensive buildings and high dolor rent.
I was spending $20 a week just in tolls not including gas and car maintenance. I have not missed sitting in traffic 1 hour each way to go 27 miles.Klipsch The Nines, Audioquest Thunderbird Interconnect, Innuos Zen MK3 W4S recovery, Revolution Audio Labs USB & Ethernet, Border Patrol SE-I, Audioquest Niagara 5000 & Thunder, Cullen Crossover II PC's. -

Well, we had a terrible year, but some positive also.
My wife is a breast cancer survivor, a double mastectomy. Still going through procedures.

We both have a way to go, but still living.

That is why it is called the Present.
In all seriousness, we had a tear-off, Post-It kind of note pad that bore those two lines (more or less). It was a big pad, so I got to know it very well over the course of literally years of use.

This has been my best year investing in ETF's............ Sold off all stock and it was invested in 5 different funds that turned a very nice double digit return.....all thanks to my son who is really good at what he does, currently managing/investing for a little company by the name of The Cargill Foundation. So thats a big positive..............

Wait, I thought blowing huge sums of money on HiFi gear was the best investment one could make!

I believe there was a lot of good in 2020, but you had to turn off the TV to see it.Oh, Listen here mister. We got no way of understandin' this world. But we got as much sense of this bird flyin in the sky. Now there is a lot that bird don't know, but it don't change the fact that the world is happening to him all the same. What I am tryin to say is, is that the course of your life, well its changing, and you don't even see it- Forest Bondurant

The small company that I've worked at for more than 25 years was aquired by a larger company. All that worthless stock I aquired years ago has become, not quite so worthless.π
Numerous milestones in my boys' lives as well this year.
Covid-19 sucks, but frankly this year has had many positives for me.
Oh, and I like working from home. Though I miss the in person eye candy.π
