Cesar's chariot:

Mr. Sayoc, a registered Republican, has a lengthy criminal history in Florida dating back to 1991 that includes felony theft, drug and fraud charges, as well as being accused of threatening to use a bomb, public records show.

Florida man...arrested in probe of mail bombs...

And there he is Ells and Gees, the eponymous Florida Man, the can't-spell, can't-make-a-functional-pipe-bomb instantiation of Florida Man! All hail Cesar Sayoc, Jr, 56 years young, a resident of Aventura, Florida. You make us all proud, Cesar!

Boston, Massachusetts is the Hub of the Universe and as one travels south from Massachusetts the former United States of America becomes increasingly derelict until one reaches its southernmost extremity, the state of Florida, the Asshole of America, in the shape of an extruded log of feces.

Lost another one tonight, Cleveland did. They’re 0-5, ohfer the season. They’re the “Cadavers.” Again.😂

Pep Guardiola today:

"I will be Mancunian for the rest of my life. I will be a Manchester City fan and it will be impossible to train another team like Manchester City in England..."

Of course. OF COURSE!

A colleague responded to a reassuring email I sent:

"Word." 

?

I had no fucking idea what that meant.

"Word"? I need a few more of those to comprende.

She responded "lol it's a thing we used to say a lot in the '80's, like 'right on.'"

She used a synonym from the 1960's thinking that my young adulthood extended that far back. Insert face palm.

So I texted my issue, 29 year old son, 22 year old daughter, the email exchange and insouciantly asked them if they had ever heard of "Word" being used synonymously with "Yes!" or, insert ouch, "right on." Their responses:

Son: Dad...lol. Man. Thats like late 90s

Daughter: And someone says “far out” it doesn’t mean they’re in another city. It’s slang from the 60s for “cool”. Not sure how far back I have to go now to teach you slang. Hahaha

Daughter: groovy means cool dad 

Son: Hahaha we both prepared a 60s joke 🤣

Me: I AM GOING TO MURDER YOU BOTH!

Well, that blew up very quickly. The "Heat" scorched NYK 45-20 in 3Q and by the time I post this it will probably be all over, something like 110-84...110-87 FT. HASSAN ended up leading MIA in scoring! 22, 14(12), 0, 0, 3, 1. Next high was JR with 21 and JR shot much better in the 2H, 8/14 for the game, 5/6 from range. HEAT! HEAT! HEAT! 

"Heats" lead Porzingis-less NYK 47-45 at HT. Big 2Q for MIA. Check that: Big 2Q for Rodney McGruder, 16, 5/5, 2/2, 4/5, 5, 3, 1. JESUS, Rodney McGruder.

Strange box score for MIA. YoungWhiteside with 10 shots--in a half! 9, 4/10, 1/4, 10 (8), 0, 0, 1 block.

Josh Richardson: 5, 2/8, 1/2, 6 (5), 0, 1, 4 turnovers. JR is shooting .358 for the season, .296 from distance. Oh my God.

LBJ-less Cleve is 0-3 headed for 0-4. They trail NYN 88-70 with 9:36 left at the Pawnshop. 

THEY’RE NOT GOOD WAZE!

It was NYK 27-16 MIA end 1. Now 32-28 7:50 HT.
