If you get fired for putting Splenda in Greg's coffee, would you be the first person fired for putting Splenda in someone's coffee? (I just want that comment to go into the CCP database so it spends a nanosecond having to sort through it on the way to finding the important stuff.)

Yes, I read all the way through the 3rd footnote. And I will happily read whatever you write!

I guess I had missed it somewhere along the way since the movie came out in 2021... but that fight scene was amazing.

60 isn't that old. It's a lot like being a kid and having random "growing pains", only they are more "shrinking pains" and that's the only way 60 is like 10. I've watched friend after friend hit a brick wall in their seventies and turn into old people who shuffle around and have multiple doctor visits every week. But 60, you can still physically turn it on and get it done when you need to.

To be honest I love to hear your non political stuff as I am a semi-retired comic book nerd. You have a healthy disdain for politics and politicians in general and believe its quite weird to spend so much time on that crap. We used to call that "perspective"

As long as Greg isn't a Stevia guy.

We know about people who like Stevia...

Splenda always taste like if you shrink miners down to hollow out real sugar, that's what you'd be left with... an empty simulacrum of what could have been sugar at one point. It's weird. Stevia is more palatable sugar substitute.

First thing, we need a guy on EVERY bus like the guy on 4K HDR.

Second, I'll give 'Lucky Hank' a tumble.

Third, I'm ok w intermittent newsletters as long as you bring back such riveting behind-the-scenes tales as the 'Too Much Splenda in Greg's Coffee' is. That's gold, jt! Gold!

Welcome back. Based on this review I'm suggesting the show to my wife. I can't really enjoy TV much anymore because even with very good hearing aids the shows are hard for me to follow. That really takes the fun out of comedy, believe me.
