    Your prep takes more that one week?

    Heading to the post Office in an hour or so to drop off taxes.

    What, you're still so old school no Turbo tax or one of the other tax programs? You'd have to enjoy the torture of messing around with Schedule D. Click send, done. Return accepted by IRS in less than 24 hours. 🙂

    I do that, too.

    It's complicated...

    Well if any of you chose watch the INDIANS in Puerto Rico up 5-0 top 7 with Kluber.  Lindor scored first runs 2R HR and the place went wild.

    Work the rest of this week

    Saturday - Attend the FA cup semi final at Wembley with free food and booze all day in an executive box

    If we win then my body (liver) will probably have recovered only just in time for the draft on the 26th.

    Mow the entire yard next week including the "Outback" beyond the back fencing. Drink a bottle of Napa Cabernet or a decent Bordeaux one glass at a time between now and draft day. Have my Diplomatico rum ready for a toast on draft night, especially if we finish off the 1st with a move up for Sony Michel. My darkhorse pick from a few months ago has risen now into the first 25 on more than a few mocks.

    These online monetary discussions rarely work out, something about having the actual greenbacks on the table or in someone's wallet ready to slap down on a bet.

    Dutch, remember over the years how hard it was to get people to ante up $5 or $10 for a football pick 'em? And we'd have 20, 30 or more in some of our contests. The dependable ones were right in and the deadheads would always say that the check's in the mail.

    But PoG doesn't seem like a deadhead maybe there's time for your sucker bet  fair proposition yet. (Did that help? 😆)

    From wiki:

    Timing

    Each team has its representatives attend the draft. During the draft, one team is always "on the clock." In Round 1, teams have 10 minutes to make their choice (previously 15). The decision time drops to 7 minutes (previously 10) in the second round and 5 minutes in Rounds 3–6. In round 7, and for compensatory picks, teams only have 4 minutes to make their choice.

    https://www.draftsite.com/nfl/rules/

    • A player must be out of high school for at least three years to be eligible for the draft.
    • If a player enters the draft but does not sign a contract, that player can be drafted again the following year.
    • If a player does not declare for the draft, but is deemed academically ineligble later on, there is a supplemental draft in the summer that occurs. Teams submit a bid for the round in which they would like to take one of the players, and if their bid is the highest, they will get that player, and lose the subsequent pick the following year.
    • For the first round, the team picking gets 10 minutes to submit a player\'s name to be drafted.
    • 7 minutes in Round 2, and 5 minutes in Rounds 3-7.
    • If the time expires before the pick is submitted, the next team can begin to submit their pick, but the team who\'s time expired can still submit their pick at any point
    • Any team\'s draft picks can be traded at any time
    • The first round is on Thursday, with Rounds 2 and 3 on the Friday, and Rounds 3-7 on Saturday
  • Well if any of you chose watch the INDIANS in Puerto Rico up 5-0 top 7 with Kluber.  Lindor scored first runs 2R HR and the place went wild.

    The crowd sound.... kind of a collective "WHOOO"... when it was clear the ball had cleared the fence was unlike any crowd noise I'd heard before. It was really cool.

    While I admire your self control nonetheless that must be the world's smallest wine glass...

    Work, a  poster design, taxes and organizing a double bachelor party is what's going to entertain me these days... 

    Next week I'm beginning an online Masters degree, and it's funny how unenthusiastic I feel about it comparing to two months ago when I signed up... 🙄

    Masters, that's still interesting day 1, course 1 all of that seems so far away from your goals but it will not be long before you see the light at the end of the tunnel.....and hopefully not a train coming the other way.  😆

    The payoff and satisfaction are worth it, what is your area of study?  And at least you won't wonder for awhile what to do with all of your free time, buena suerte!

    I'm Architect, and ended college last year. I'm going to study a Master to become BIM Manager. I suggest you to search what's that about, lol. One hard year long master. But hopefully it's going to put me in a good spot for my career.

    Both are very good friends and have most of their "guests" in common and marry one week away one from another, so they decided to combine both parties, and I've got some experience organizing them lately. There were 40 people invited to join the party and we will end up being 20 guys in what's going to be an unbelievable weekend in early June 😉
