She has an incredible flow and the beats she uses have a pretty timeless feel.
Unfortunately I couldn't recommend her to hotspur as I'm not sure what her Dad does.

Ice hockey betting markets are weird, I wanted to have a small flutter on Canucks -1(-1.5) for tonight and there is just no market to be found!
The only site I can see with the actual bet is William Hill but they have it priced at 10/3, yet they are actually 7/2 to just win the game in 60 mins on many sites.. just weird to not be able to bet on a team to win by 2 or more here.
Oh, and do speed vans ever work at night? I have never seen one after the sun has gone down and am curious as to whyGo big or go homeless.

It's a bit unfair to compare the two as the guys down here have no control over Duty and VAT rates which make up a large portion of the total cost.
I'm all for a bargain but if the difference is only a Euro or two, I'd prefer to support local at a slightly higher cost.

Seen as we cant go into a bar
An Oxford comma walks into a bar, where it spends the evening watching the television, getting drunk, and smoking cigars.
• A dangling participle walks into a bar. Enjoying a cocktail and chatting with the bartender, the evening passes pleasantly.
• A bar was walked into by the passive voice.
• An oxymoron walked into a bar, and the silence was deafening.
• Two quotation marks walk into a “bar.”
• A malapropism walks into a bar, looking for all intensive purposes like a wolf in cheap clothing, muttering epitaphs and casting dispersions on his magnificent other, who takes him for granite.
• Hyperbole totally rips into this insane bar and absolutely destroys everything.
• A question mark walks into a bar?
• A non sequitur walks into a bar. In a strong wind, even turkeys can fly.
• Papyrus and Comic Sans walk into a bar. The bartender says, "Get out -- we don't serve your type."
• A mixed metaphor walks into a bar, seeing the handwriting on the wall but hoping to nip it in the bud.
• A comma splice walks into a bar, it has a drink and then leaves.
• Three intransitive verbs walk into a bar. They sit. They converse. They depart.
• A synonym strolls into a tavern.
• At the end of the day, a cliché walks into a bar -- fresh as a daisy, cute as a button, and sharp as a tack.
• A run-on sentence walks into a bar it starts flirting. With a cute little sentence fragment.
• Falling slowly, softly falling, the chiasmus collapses to the bar floor.
• A figure of speech literally walks into a bar and ends up getting figuratively hammered.
• An allusion walks into a bar, despite the fact that alcohol is its Achilles heel.
• The subjunctive would have walked into a bar, had it only known.
• A misplaced modifier walks into a bar owned by a man with a glass eye named Ralph.
• The past, present, and future walked into a bar. It was tense.
• A dyslexic walks into a bra.
• A verb walks into a bar, sees a beautiful noun, and suggests they conjugate. The noun declines.
• A simile walks into a bar, as parched as a desert.
• A gerund and an infinitive walk into a bar, drinking to forget.
• A hyphenated word and a non-hyphenated word walk into a bar and the bartender nearly chokes on the irony

Also the now defunct football team did the worst hotdogs imaginable...to the point it was a running joke to recommend them to first timers like they were the greatest thing ever... Somewhere might be carrying on the tradition
Stuck for a third thing tbh...

I suppose you could always report back about just how stoney and grey is the soil
Is it really as stoney and grey as they claim!?

Doesn't matter if it's true or not, when you're explaining, you're losing.
I see that multiple news orgs, including Fox, have confirmed the reportage."We are not Europeans. Those people on the continent are freaks."

The Path to Power

The Passage of Power
Frequently cited as the greatest biography ever written. He started in 1974 and is still going. It's an incredible study of a man who craved power all his life and ultimately achieved supreme power - only to throw it away. Even more than that, it's the story of America in the twentieth century.

Ordered CC's Trotski yoke on Amazon anyway to keep me going.

Have any of you guys been listening to Song Exploder podcast?
Had to drive to Mayo for work on Thurs so looked up a few pods the night before.
It's fantastic. 20 min eps, a different artist each time breaking down one of their songs, the writing, the idea behind it, the production, why they added that particular track or instrument etc. It's really good. Have only listened to two mind, Black Pumas and Nathaniel Rateliff. The former I'd never heard of and am currently listening to. There's tons of episodes available with some really amazing artists.
Great way to discover new stuff. Highly recommend.I hold silver in tit for tat, and I love you for that

One good thing to come from Covid is the streaming and showing of club games. So far today I've watched 2 Kerry club games on a stream, 1 paid, 1 free, 1 Mayo championship match on a stream and 2 Tyrone semi finals on RTE. Tomorrow looks stacked and the hardest decision is what ti actually watch, theres so much choice.

Don't think there's an artist I've taken more enjoyment from than R.E.M. over the decades. I guess maybe the Beatles might compete for that title, but only them. I always loved R.E.M.'s music so much, even in the face of much, much slagging from my friends back in secondary school
Think Out Of Time is a great album too, still listen to it a lot, as with AFTP and Green.

Monster got a lot of unjust criticism due to them departing somewhat from their normal fare . After a few listens I loved it . Automatic shades it but I'm sticking up for poor ol Monster . A really inventive piece of work .
