¡A Salty Easter to You!

b1-66er: <Wombo>

Major Math: My kindergarten days were boring in comparison

b1: They wanted to hold me back in kindergarten because they felt I wasn't 'socially mature enough,' enraging my father and resulting in me talking to a couple different school psychologists...
... And you can see the results. 
They were clearly right.

M²: You should have brought some margaritas in. That would have displayed a little social maturity.

Put yer Bitcoin where your avatar's mouth is, bitch!

Special K: This is the most dystopian future, science fiction sports thing I've ever seen. A football league that plays in a big TV studio, with plays called by fans via their cryptocurrency wallets. https://www.lx.com/culture/sports/how-to-watch-week-1-of-fan-controlled-football/51218/

Treadmilling Life

b1-66er: Just got a call from the cardiologist's office.
"Your heart stopped for 3.8 seconds on the last trial.
You need to come in for a stress test."
Followed by The Accomplice speaking very loudly...
And me following up by saying loving things like, "have you ever noticed I don't tell YOU how to live YOUR life?"

Lawrencian: Oh jeebus.
Seems like a glitch to me.  That's over a period of weeks, right?

b1: A month, yes...
First time they said my heart stopped for 7 seconds.

L: 2.62 million seconds in a month

b1: I'll make sure to tell them that as I'm pacing on the treadmill.
(I haven't been able to RUN for 5 years.)

L: And what is the probability of your heart stopping during the stress test? A lot higher than not during a stress test I assume

b1: Well, at least you have a cardio there...I guess.

L:Said Mr. half glass full to Mr. half glass empty

More like a squawk

Comp-U-serve: I developed type II diabetes just looking at the preview picture! 

b1: Do I have to send you a pic of an insulin rig now?

CU: How about a pic of Super Pancreas wearing a cape?

Bellying-up the bird

Special K: Wow•
 With Elon in charge, Twitter could be worse than Facebook. Or I guess it could be good for humanity in some way I don't see. I've long thought Twitter has tremendous potential - but not necessarily as a commercial entity.

A final quack

b1-66er: Gilbert Gottfried died. He had MD.

b1-67er: Boy I don't think of muscular dystrophy patients making it into their 60's.

66: Me neither. He did remarkably well. I didn't even know he had it until I read his obit.
Once I saw I tiny TINY bit of a stand-up piece and said to The Accomplice, 'I would swear to you that he's had a stroke...'
... Almost.

67: Yeah that is a Steven Hawking run ... Top Tier Performance in the face of daunting illness.

The steaming event horizon

b1-66er:

b1-67er: That's interesting but well off the beaten path. I've never even heard of Rico hot springs

D4rw1n: Nope me neither. South of telluride. "It's not the middle of nowhere, but you can see it from there"
