I told my wife who didn't grow up a Beaver fan that we just dodged the Pettibone era 2.0 by firing Bray. I don't know that it gets a lot better any time soon under Barnes but I guess we will see.
This is where I'm at and have even helped customers stand up their own in house AI solutions and I will only use it for meeting transcripts to supplement my notes. Everything else is worse than if I just did it myself.
It's just this generation's version of the WWJD bracelet. It may look good but in the end it's kind of meaningless. Also church attendance at Evangelical churches continues to fall.
This is just like the WWJD bracelet phenomenon of the 90's. Christians will think it means a lot when in reality it means next to nothing and church numbers are still going down.
I think it depends on how they are calculating that number and are they removing bulk orders. Is it YoY? Is it just that increase since 2022? Is it wholesale numbers or actual consumer purchases? There are a lot of ways to juice that number that may not show any actual change.
Well see now that would require some actual work and a change of heart and we all know Evangelicals would never do that. They only do that when they leave the church and become Greek Orthodox or Episcopalian.
I did wonder what was considered as CCM in that. If Five Iron. MxPx, and Underoath (along with a ton of other bands from my youth) fell under that category then I may be part of the problem. I would assume it's the usual KLOVE drivel but I could be wrong.
So are they just regurgitating press releases using AI then? I hope this is a joke because this sounds like the stupidest, most boring thing ever. Stories like "10 Reasons Why Billionaires are Actually Great!"
I didn't love the way he left by it leaking before the end of the season but I honestly don't hold a grudge against anyone that did leave, even Martinez. We were a team without a conference and with no great prospects coming up. I probably would have left too if I'm being honest with myself.
Man does that guy who got trucked by Reggie Jackson have a story to tell though. I'm sure at least a dozen old guys in the Bronx claim it was them that night.
They have been this way since Nixon. Just listen to the Nixon tapes and the racism he spewed. I'm not surprised by this at all but saddened to see so many young people continue the party's history of bigotry. They should dissolve the whole organization and get rid of the rot in their party
POLITICO: “.. They referred to Black people as monkeys and ‘the watermelon people’ and mused about putting their political opponents in gas chambers. They talked about raping their enemies .. and lauded Republicans who they believed support slavery.
I only buy meat on very special sales now and it's usually untrimmed or uncut so I can save some more by doing it myself. I haven't bought a brisket in years because I can't spend over $1.99/lb and now its almost $5 or more.
