    Im thru season 2 of Breaking Bad.  I have a better understanding of why @JohnInCarolina makes so many trips to Albuquerque.  
    The idea has been presented to me that Ozark might overtake Breaking Bad as the best show "ever".  I am still a firm believer that the Sopranos is #1 but Ozark has potential after three seasons. Breaking Bad kept the momentum going season after season. Time will tell if Ozark can do the same. FWIW I also consider The Wire to be in contention. Game of Thrones too...damn, I watch too much tv!
    I have to disagree. I was a fan of Ozark but it has jumped the shark on numerous  occasions and is now “meh” TV IMO. My wife still watches but it’s not worth my time anymore. Not in the same league as Sopranos, Breaking Bad and some others. But hey, I will agree it HAD promise.

    You missed out on a helluva season of Ozark and a wild finale.  
    I prefer Ozark of Breaking Bad at this point. BB was extremely slow for a couple of seasons there in the middle.  Ozark, in my opinion, has more places to go with the storyline than did BB. And of course I have bias because it is filmed on two local lakes.

    Nice PSA.

    For folks that don’t want to spend a bunch of money, the Pop is awesome and is every bit as good, if not better, than the Pen. I have both and reach for the Pop every time. I prefer the thinner probe of the Pop.

    Succession is the shiz, especially Season 2.  One of the most intense shows I've watched lately and the acting is incredible.

    To each their own. I watched a little with my wife this season. I agree there are lots of places to go, but that’s because its a train wreck of totally unrealistic and unbelievable circumstances. Yes I understand they all are make believe and stretch believability, but it’s just too much for me. It’s just like Homeland got for me. Just not my cup o tea any longer. I really liked it for a while but these things run their course with me. It’s still a good show I’m sure. Enjoy!

    I don't consider myself religious but I once listened to a Ravi Zacharias sermon on the radio while stuck in Atlanta traffic. He was a shockingly great speaker and really captured my attention on a subject I generally have no interest in.

    I am headed to LEO as it has been a while (measured in a very few days) since enjoying the journey.  No plans for escape velocity as I have some things to address Weds AM.  But the road-trip will be enjoyable.
    Be safe out there.

    Ozark is a great show, I can’t wait for the next season.  But Breaking Bad is in the pantheon.

    I dumped a couple of hundred pounds of compost in the raised bed. Then I plant 3 Jamaican Scotch Bonnets and 4 jalapeños. It didn’t take long but I had to change clothes afterwards since the Summer Steambath has moved in for the next six months ago. Yesterday I just cut the grass.

    I have the updesk from www.updesk.com at work and in home office. Love the flexibility and big workspace.

    The varidesk units are good quality top of desk products. We’ve had a few in the office and they hold up well

    Went to their website to browse, their entire warehouse and facilities were destroyed by the Nashville tornados in March.  Hope they can recover.

    And put the red-headed step child in an Egg Nest tonight. Should have done this a long time ago.
