Just came across my wife's Tinder profile. I'm lmao. No way she's "fun to be around".

Its a very long video, almost 40 minutes but

man, I can't imagine worse PR for Greyhound - and its not the people that use it, its Greyhound , their dispatching, scheduling and people working for them are horrible.

leaving people at rest stops, abandoning an entire bus of people out in the cold, yelling at customers, Ticketing agents refusing to talk to customers or even other Greyhound employees

if you have 40 minutes to waste, you'll be shaking your head the entire video in disbelief

I’m getting old. My last Vegas conference before I retire and I can tell already I won’t miss it. Too crowded, too much walking from place to place, too much traffic, too much weed smell. I used to get off the plane and head straight to the blackjack table and stay most of the night. Now, I’ll probably just place a bet on the Monday night game, have dinner with colleagues, then just go to my room.

most of us are there. I had a friend I hadn't seen in 20 years want to go out to dinner Saturday night and I was pissed because she wanted to do it at 8.

I put $200 down on tonight’s game taking the under 40. Jacksonville has only averaged 20 points a game at home and Bengals don’t have their qb. Logic says that’s the right bet, which means I’ll most likely lose.

I used to put down a whole lot more back when I had a whole lot less. Now, it’s just seems stupid to me.

I once took a Greyhound to Ft. Lauderdale for Spring break (1985). Fuckin trip took 41 hours. Stopped in every damn ville in the Carolinas. Fun memories. It was a once in a lifetime experience for a junior in high school. Lifetime meaning I'll never do it again.

We flew home.

Wow, that was painful. Ellis Boyd Redding always made this trip from Bangor Maine to Ft Hancock Texas seem so pleasant and hopeful.

The Bagels are done. Jacksonville basically let them win and they graciously accepted.
