It looks like nobody has posted this yet, several hours after the poll was released. UConn has been voted #1 in the AP Poll for the final week of the season, prior to the NCAA Tournament, receiving 61 of 62 first-place votes. Houston got 1 vote, and is ranked #2, followed by Purdue. Here's...

After 10+ months of trouble-free performance, my Google Pixel 5a phone one day powered down and never again functioned. I quickly located some message board discussion that the telephone's failure was an identified and known (though not overwhelmingly widespread) issue. And I was also given...

Never imagined I'd be the one starting this thread, but I noticed that VTech beat Dook, with Filipowski scoring 29. And Northwestern beat Wisconsin Both were played while I watched UConn WBB drub DePaul. Next up, I'll watch tonight's biggest matchup. Baylor has jumped on Kansas early 23-12...

A reversion to before Danny got over the hump. Very disappointing. Bad shot selection, starting second half yesterday.

A man who writer Stanley Crouch called "loquaciously edifying," Phil Schaap succumbed to cancer last night. I do not imagine that any more than a few here (if any) will have been familiar with Schaap's nearly half century run as a WKCR broadcaster (begun when he was a Columbia University...

After a no big deal experience of Henri, I woke up at 4:40am, and noted that my car was not on the street outside my window. One of 12 Priuses reported gone from New Haven homes in the past day, as of my 5:50am call. I've already completed the CT Stolen Vehicle report at the Police Dept...

(Hey, where'd my OT label go?) Today marks the 80th anniversary date of Zappa's birth and 73rd of my parents' wedding. (Shout out to Michael Apted's "Up" movie series that they married on FZ's 7th birthday) "There are no coincidences," eh? Listener-supported, community radio station WPKN...

Might as well try it Ev'rybody's invited Five, seven, then five Kind of a teach-in For Japanese tradition Five, seven, then five Three-line poetry The syllable count is key Five, seven, then five Some words are trouble Is "idea" two or three? How 'bout "requires?" Trying to decide...

I posted as a new topic in Cesspool that the Main Forum link redirects to Whitehouse.gov and Mt. Rushmore. Maybe it s on purpose. In case not. Here are some screenshots, which I still have to do in Chrome, because they still do not work in Firefox (both mobile).

In the past week or so, I've noted two changes that affect how I have posted. The first is minor: the option to Delete a posted Comment is no longer available. There are times when I post something, and then I see the Reply at the end of a thread as though I'd never hit Post. Afterward, I learn...

I do not know if Pat Grande ever visited The Boneyard, but the attached article says that she attended 10 Women's Final Fours, so perhaps some here knew her. I came to this news by way of knowing her brother. I am active on the Men's Basketball Board, but have never posted here. If there are...

https://www.jambase.com/article/neil-young-crazy-horse-tour-2020-barn Neil Young considers the newer, corporate-moneyed arenas soulless, and too expensive & cumbersome for mounting a tour within the timeframe & relaxed vibe he prefers. He instead wants to play "barns" (older, not-yet-razed...

After Labor Day, when parking fees & restrictions are lifted, which towns east of New Haven have beaches worth visiting? Mostly, I'm looking for places to walk along, or drive up to a view. Branford, Guilford, Madison must have some comparable to below. Basically, alternatives to Hammonasset...

My surgery is scheduled for Monday 8/19. Who has experience and what to expect in terms of pain, discomfort, recovery timing, limitations, etc?

Chills & tears, watching the montage and the ceremony

First time this season for me to sit down to watch a weeknight doubleheader. LSU at Kentucky Duke at Louisville Interested in watching the two from CT.

My last few phones have had major failures, requiring replacement. This one is different. It's a 14 month old Moto G5+, which has stopped sending Voice Mail notifications and won't get me to the necessary screen to clear cache ever since the upgrade from Android 7.1.1 to 8.1. Not major, but...

Below is homage to what inspired this thread, but what are your expectations the weekend weather? Extra credit for on-campus predictions for # of inches of snow vs. # of thousands of people at Gampel for the Tulane game. FROM TOS (the other storm) thread Dream Jobbed 2.0 said: I thought...

While we await the next game after New Year, a good time to address 3 issues. 1) FIREFOX - Boneyard on my W10 laptop has a msg that tells me to enable Java script for a better experience. Tweets do not show up in posts. I don't know what else I'm missing. How do I enable Java? (Tweets show up...

We are taking advantage of Southwest's new direct flights from Bradley and flying into/out of St Louis to visit family in north central Arkansas the second week of September. Current plans are for 3 Airbnb nights in St Louis tacked onto the back end. Any recommendations/heads up for a site-...

I'm in Westville, New Haven, and she's in West Hartford near Bloomfield border off Mountain Road. Is GoldBurgers in Newington worth my 48 minutes to her 22? Is it comfortable enough for a "we don't see each other enough" catch up with someone who just turned 75? Where else? We've done Maggie...

Played at FedExForum USF came into the game 8-21 Go UConn, beat Houston

Used up my CBS All Access trial last month. My only friend who might have cable & interest* in the game is 30 miles away & may or may not be busy. WHERE in New Haven would be good to go? Again, I am missing walkable Delaney's. HOW to do some sketchy form of streaming? I know it's been...

Played at Ryan Center. St. Joe's came into the game 13-15.

Google Maps says, "Harry A. Gampel Pavillion is closed today." Do they know something I don't know? Go UConn!

Start with a haiku Remember: five-seven-five Then add 2 sevens Larrier should catch and shoot And Ollie should work the refs
