finally I have time to watch a game live. so of course they'll probably lose this one. sorry in advance.

wrong forum for this.

yup, counties get a lot bigger on average the farther west you go. sparse populations and probably kind of a "frontier" mentailty when the counties were formed where people didn't care as much about access to government services, as opposed to some counties east of the Rockies that I know were split because the county seat was too far from a vocal segment of the population. just for fun, AZ does have some dupes, just not in the list Chas made: Santa Cruz (CA), Yuma (CO), and Graham (KS, NC).

besides the 12 counties named exactly Lake, there are also five with "Lake" as part of the name plus four more with French "Lac(s)" as part of the name. sorry for knowing this.

how about "the less-stupid one"?

The blond one is Beavis.

boy, that comma really changes the meaning of the phrase. learn your punctuation, kids!

is this a trick question?

yeah, it's been a complete ****show. I like the idea of voter initiatives way more than most of the initiatives we actually crank out.

and everyone in the PNW today

late to the party, but ok. I'll call these 10 of what I'm the most into right now plus some faves. in no particular order: Rezzonator: Rebirth Nomeansno: Wrong Nomeansno: Sex Mad/You Kill Me They Might Be Giants: The Else They Might Be Giants: Apollo 18 Led Zeppelin: Physical Graffiti Yes: Close to the Edge Beats Antique: ELEKTRAPHONE Rush: Vapor Trails Old 97's: Too Far to Care

Made me laugh at least

plus we had this knuckleknob a few weeks ago: https://www.koin.com/news/tsa-investigating-how-washington-state-senators-handgun-got-past-pdx-security-checkpoint/amp/ I'm flying out of PDX tomorrow and am expecting a total ****show.

did someone say "Boston"? not even posting this for the sake of showing off a silly cover—I freaking love these guys.

going to guess this alert is more relevant to this thread than to anything else, but 🤷 https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/traveladvisories/traveladvisories/worldwide-caution.html

oh, man, I did that Friday and got my ass kicked starting about 6-8 hours afterwards and finally feeling normalish about 24 hours after that. I usually don't have a reaction to flu shots, but maybe the extra immune load was too much. or maybe the Moderna vax just beat the **** out of me all on its own.

so... it's on then?

tee hee

We do this in Oregon already. Tipping is still out of control.

I get my updated COVID vax at the end of next week along with the flu vax. I'm currently dating someone who's at extra risk for complications from COVID, so I'm only too happy to make damn sure I don't get it. I've also gone back to masking up in stores and such, just for whatever (probably small) bit of extra protection. the single reason I'm looking forward to turning 50 later this year is getting a shingles vaccine. damn do I love vaccines.
