Yeah, I wasn't angling for politics, or trying to be an asshole, just curious what you meant or what your intent was/is.

Coney Island Hotdog Eating Contest - July 4th. Anyone been?
Coney is shit show in general but worth doing once. The Subway is a long-ish ride but its the best option. If you go...ride the Cyclone.

2023 Summer vacation brag thread
yeah, but when people say "Italy" they tend to mean the boot and not the ball. I've been to Italy, never been to Sicily.

The latest get your ass back in the office story: AT&T
Traffic: Commuter traffic is different that local secondary street traffic Business: yeah....I enjoyed it more when every Tom, Dick, and Harry wasn't at Home Depot, the Grocery Store or wherever at 10":00 AM or 2:00 PM, it was easier for me when those folks were in their offices. Sales guys life has gone from 50% in front of clients (in some years is was 25% f2f and 25% virtual) to 100% virtual.

ain't gonna lie....I'm happy for folks to go back to work and the WFH to get back to being mostly us IT Sales folks. I'm tired of the local traffic, places being filled/busy duriung the day, and the relentless virtual meetings. I want to get back to meeting my folks in person.

PSA: CT HEART CALCIUM SCORING
yeah, plain jane stress test is somewhat useless.

PSA: CT HEART CALCIUM SCORING
Relax....While scary...this whole process can be really easy and it means not croaking unexpectedly on your family and friends. I went in at 6:00 AM for the LAD stent and was home within 24 hours, a week later the other two stents and a junction ballon, same thing, arrived in the AM and went home after dinner. I can barley see the scar on my wrist.

PSA: CT HEART CALCIUM SCORING
there is something to this. my BP went down as the pump doesn't have to work so hard. When I did the stress test and had me on the treadmill....they said the heart was that of man 20 years younger and was strong. Must be all that cocaine from you youth.

I'm not a Doctor...that being said I walk 3miles a day and hit the dumbbells and kettle bells. Cardiologist has ok'ed this, he said I can do a 5k if I want. I'm not a runner. I did my one marathon back in 2003. I'm about the turn 52 so I'm just working out the stay alive. I can't shovel snow anymore which is a real bummer... no seriously, I like it, I;m weird that way. Your Cardiologist will set the rules.

Canada w/o Passport
I used to carry one of these in my backpack/laptop bag along with all my other "IT related" do-dads, cables, etc. Carried for years, all over the USA, MEx, Aruba, etc. Then came that fateful trip to Montreal....the Canadians found it, pulled me aside for a conversation in a small room, relived me of the item and suggested I might be be able to enter Canada again if I traveled with one of these again.

Are a cheapo or did you get the Passport card and if you do have it, is it valid? It allows for driving over the boarder.

PSA: CT HEART CALCIUM SCORING
Cannot encourage peeps to get one enough. I did my first one back in 2014....scored a 70 and my GP said, work on your diet, etc. fast-forward to last year it was something like 700 or a 1000. Went to a Cardiologist and he ordered a Nuke Strees test which showed a healthy heart but Arterial Occlusion. went to the CATH Lab...LAD was 100% occluded, CRX was 90%, RCA was over 80%. Mind you....I felt great and had no outward signs of heat issues. Want to know what the survivability rate is for a LAD Cardiac Event if you are not in a Cardiac Care center? 12% I had three stents put in, in and out the same day, two sessions. Now its as if they were not occluded. crazy shit
