• Pat Flood (@rebarcock) passed away 9/21/25. Pat played a huge role in encouraging the devolopmemt of this site and donated the very first dollar to get it started. Check the thread at the top of the board for the obituary and please feel free to pay your respects there. I am going to get all the content from that thread over to his family so they can see how many people really cared for Pat outside of what they ever knew. Pat loved to tell stories and always wanted everyone else to tell stories. I think a great way we can honor Pat is to tell a story in his thread (also pinned at the top of the board).

What is the single most realistic thing you can do tomorrow that brings you the most joy?

I get to coach football today. That is a truly simple joy in my life. Best six hours of my day.
What level are you coaching? Head coach? Assistant coach?

The only thing i have coached so far is 8 and under girls and boys basketball. Would love to coach middle or high school sports when i have the time one day.

I coach high school varsity football. I am the defensive backs coach. I started coaching all sports that my son played from the time he was five years old (he is almost 20 now). Got sick of parent politics in youth football as a head coach and lucked into an opportunity to coach JV. Spent six years on JV and the past three on varsity. Was able to coach my son at every level other than his freshman year. A lifetime of memories. Very fortunate and grateful.
 
Take a shit. That way when some one tells me, “you are full of shit,” I can smile and say “scientifically impossible & you trust the science right?”

I'll be doing my "assassination" thing on several insects today. The insects don't talk back and it pays well.

I am taking a Vietnam Veteran to lunch. His name is Ron Link and he was special forces. His squad would chopper into the jungle to rescue downed pilots. He suffers from PTSD but he is gradually doing better. I am building a relationship with him. He lives alone. I try to visit him at least once a week. So tomorrow for lunch at Mellow Mushroom is a real treat for Ron. And me.
