So, let me ax you a question:
I'm getting ready to cross the Iowa border on 52 heading towards Rochester. I want to take 94 up to and through Fargo. Is going through St. Paul going to suck if it's about 5p?
Or should i bypass the Cities?
I would bypass 94 for sure. At 5 PM you are going to hit lots of traffic no matter which route you take. Maybe take an hour or so for dinner some place at 5 PM and then continue on north.

Looking for opinions.
I want to get a neck tattoo. A sleek tasteful one. Wife is full stop. I say no way she gets a say in my personal choices. Not to that level. Full face tats or body modifications sure, talks seem appropriate. Aa is she's giving me major grief over the earing. Because it's dangly lol
Id listen to the wife more if I was you. You asked. ;) Maybe take up pickle ball.

Need something lighter. Hasn't been 3 years since my 1st knee alignment surgery and I've already been back to the surgeon. He said the procedures could have put off knee replacement for 15 years...but they didn't? My options? Gut it out as long as I can.
I want my life back. I could have been long over this with replacement surgeries but they didn't want me to have to go through it again. 2 replacements VS one plus they break both my legs and insert hardware..

Can't afford it anyway but if I could..my wife would have a new thing to get used to.
In a kind gesture she came up behind me this morning and put in a diamond stud in my ear. I like it. These issues are hers. If I want to be a bald, cowboy hat wearing, dangly earing, neck tattoo sporting guy...as long as I treat her right. Which I didn't do enough of sporting any look.

I played pb prior to 2020 a little bit. I started playing with locals in Jan 2024. Second time out I tore my left inside meniscus. Hobbled around on the court until surgery on 12/30/2025. I had a partial knee replacement done with robotics. I"m good to go - unbelievable how well things went (not to jinx anything, I hope).
PB has a very high injury rate - especially for those of us that aren't so young anymore.

I loved loved loved tennis, racquetball, even ping-pong back in the day.
I said F it and hooked up the original pong and I hurt my wrist.

I'm thinking of changing my legal name now to Doewhktrtawdjon Mallett. You guys will be able to pronounce it but no one else will. I really don't like to be asked follow question so I want to get away from Dr.
I worked with this one girl, her name was Niamh and she said it was pronounced Neeve. I said - that's stupid...you can't just say things are when they are not. ****jng chaos.
