Man, long day yesterday, I put on 550 miles. I have nowhere to go today other than Bismarck & Mandan, it’s gonna be a good day, hopefully we can get out & do some fishing when kiddo gets out of school.
Vikings/NFL Discussion
It was sad to hear about the guy who fell out of the golf cart & died from a head injury, the golf cart was driven by John Elway. In case you haven’t seen it, here are details about the story, courtesy of CBS Sports.
Vikings News
The Vikings are digging deep to get to the next level, according to Vikings.com.
J.J. McCarthy knows he’s ready to start, from Fox Sports.
The Sporting News predicts it will be the Browns and not the Vikings who will sign CB Asante Samuel Jr. This is pure speculation on their part, they must be bored & in need of something to write about.
NFL News
The NFL fined the Falcons $100K and Jeff Ulbrich $250K over the leak of Shedeur Sanders’ phone number, per CBS Sports. Okay, now read the next story.
It was the NFL who sent Shedeur Sanders’ phone number to Jeff Ulbrich, per MSN. Yet, the NFL fined the Falcons. Interesting, maybe they should have fined theirselves. That would make no sense to do, which would be par for the course for the NFL. They might even have a policy that requires them to do it. Goofballs.
Pete Prisco posted his post-draft NFL power rankings, from CBS Sports. Wow, only four months too early.
We’ve all knows that Aaron Rodgers will be going to the Steelers, despite tons of blabbering to the contrary by NFL journalists. It looks like we were right and they were wrong. @I’m shocked@
Media Selection
As of this writing, the Wolves-Lakers game hasn’t started. I hope like hell the Wolves ended this series.

According to the Garner Police Department, two non-citizens (i.e. illegal aliens), along with an escaped third accomplice, abducted a North Carolina mother and her infant daughter at gunpoint on Monday after the family declined to pay a $1 million ransom.
Paola Duran Duran, 25, her brother Miguel Angel Duran Duran, 23, and Eleodoro “Leo” Estrada-Hernandez, 37, who escaped from police, are accused of orchestrating the kidnapping before ultimately releasing the victims.
The mother and child later sought refuge by knocking on the door of a stranger’s home.
They are just ‘neighbors’ and they commit less crimes than an equal number of US citizens.
Or so the left would have you believe.
Duran Duran sinks to new low,

Albert Breer says there was discussion that Minnesota could bring Kirk Cousins back in a trade with the Falcons, if Atlanta took on more of Cousins’ money. Then the deal to bring Sam Howell in from Seattle got done, which closed the door on the remote possibility that would happen.
Let’s be clear, Cousins wasn’t ever going to agree to come back to Minnesota to be a backup to McCarthy. The only “discussion” on this was from idiot pundits.
They were not idiots.
The were after click bait to pad their wallets.
1,000s of fans clicked on their articles to call them idiots.
So the ‘experts’ laughed all the way to the bank.
You have a way of making sense out of nonsense…
Nonsense and I have a long and complicated history.
They want at least 20 mil for Kirk. He wants to start. They are rolling with JJ and backup. Works for me.
Yeah, but that deal was never, ever, going to be consummated.
Did you watch Howell play, he’s terrible. This is one of those deals that may look ok on paper, but is terrible on the field.
Howell is basically Heinicke all over again. Gritty competitor, but not a great QB.
Heard he had a better arm, or was at least more athletic.
I did not pay that much attention at the time. Figured if he was good enough for KOC who was I to quibble.
He doesn’t have a better arm, and he’s not a better (or worse) athlete.
Like you, if KOC sees something in Howell I do not, so be it.
Only thing we can do is say ‘I called it’ if it works out or ‘I told you so’ if it doesn’t.
We are just but fans after all.
*that is ‘but’ with 1 T you perverts*
What happened with that dude who fell out of stands at baseball game? Critical condition. Drunk maybe?

You’d probably best appreciate this text exchange if you are in the medical field but sometimes I shake my head…
(PA in Armpit, MT): Hi doc, I got a yellow alert on the cervical spine MRI on Mr. Doe. The neurologist wanted me to follow up on the findings. I am comfortable with the thyroid nodule followup but can you glance at the images and tell me if I need to do anything with the spine findings?
I’m thinking what is this about, I haven’t alerted any spine findings in a week or more. Hmm…typety type okay let’s see…MR done in Billings and read by one of the Billings rads…I see they saw a thyroid nodule, followup recommended…what’s bullet point #1 in the impression?
Me: Ummm…if the neurologist that ordered the study expected you to manage the severe cord swelling on the INPATIENT in Billings that is a real serious problem. I don’t think that having you manage cord swelling on an inpatient from your clinic in Armpit would go over well. However, if you clarify that the neurologist does indeed want you to manage the cord swelling, you should immediately call the department chair Dr. Quack and discuss the immediate termination of the neurologist in question. As for the thyroid, that can be followed electively with a thyroid ultrasound and I will give you more details after I read the ultrasound. If you have any further questions feel free to let me know.
That is verbatim the text conversation except for altering the names. That convo took place at 8 am. I haven’t heard anything back yet. Did I come across too strong?
probably should have thrown in some “those idiots” and “incompetents” and “what the heck were they thinking” to make sure they get the point. At least that’s what happens to me…
Don’t really know how to respond. Keep us posted if you get any f/u.
LOL.
I love it when people tell it like it is. So rare nowadays.
You gave him more latitude than he deserved.
I would have gone with ‘Not my monkey, not my circus’.
Does you offering on opinion on treatment mean you can be found liable if that treatment fails?
Can you now bill said Dr/patient for the consultation?
Go Mild! Takem to 7 if nothing else. Run them into the ice for next series. Check the hell out of them.

For those Beatles fans amongst us, here is another joke from the Truly Tasteless Jokes Three (reminder – this book was published in 1983 – 42 years ago).
What will it take to reunite the Beatles?
Three more bullets.
LOL, the Beatles suck, and that’s funny
Nobody’s perfect.
@Except Kirk@
2.
That’s an old joke unless you’re including Yoko. And that’s phucking stupid.
It’s an old joke. Note the date of publication of the book I was quoting from.
Man… rough one there.
There are a lot of rough ones in that book. There’s a whole section of Helen Keller jokes and dead baby jokes. Ahh….remember the good old days of the 1980s.
i LOVE helen keller jokes
What did Helen Keller say when she fell of the cliff?
What happened when Helen Keller fell into the well? She screamed her hands off.
Those jokes are from the 70’s, I was still in grade school…
This particular book was published in 1983, but I’m sure that a bunch were created in the 1970s. I graduated from HS in 1983.
I miss the dead baby jokes.
I had a book “101 uses for a dead cat”.
Hilarious.
How many dead babies does it take to paint a wall?
Beatles revolutionised the music the music world. From the mid 60’s into 70’s was the best rock bands ever. Still listen to many of them.
in music world
thought two had already died.
Note the date of the book that I was quoting from.
National Military Appreciation Month
Housing market is in trouble. Some areas will be spared, but nationally, it looks like shit. This bubble has been filling, previous admin meddled in FHA market to avoid foreclosures, but it’s all coming to a head. Homes sales are down, big markets in FL and TX are taking a shit.
It’s 2008 all over again. This WILL happen. Be prepared.
National media trying to blame it on tariffs. This is laughable.
Home prices are the biggest factor, they’re WAY too high.
I’m ok with it. Prices need to come back to earth. When/if they do maybe I’ll finally be able to move out of town. Homes that were 500k 5 or 6 years ago are listing for 1.2 million plus.
Yup, an adjustment is desperately needed. Home affordability (even adjusted for inflation) are at their worst levels in history.
*conspiracy theory* Its all part of the plan. Rental property construction is booming…
Yeah. not looking forward to that, but at least our mortgage is under 3.9%.
we have a 30 year fixed loan at 2.25%, not touching that
It’s May Day, comrades.

North Dakota quicksand is no joke.
Holy hell is that drive way tore UP. Ruts are gonna need to be filled in those are deep.
ok mr driveway expert
I have eye balls lol
That, and don’t floor it once you start spinning.
Gravel might help, having pure dirt for a driveway is a bad idea. Rain will turn it into a mud pit. Mix that with a bad driver, and you see the result.
Looks like a not old or rundown home, at least what you can tell from the corner of the garage.
This was northeast of town, probably at least a $500K home, probably higher. Fairly new build, looks like they’re still adding landscaping & such.
Gravel..or if you can afford that house, pour some concrete
At least some asphalt. I dunno, I was just driving by & saw the stuck vehicle, had to take a picture.
Over the years i’ve learned ice and mud have little traction.
Yup, especially when you’re high-centered.
Bet your happy for clean roads. You log some serious miles.
550 miles yesterday, long drive to inspect two homes
Rub a little dirt on it?
Looks closely…North Dakota plate…no surprises there.
I would take that rack, though.
I didn’t see a chick…..
Supposedly the Vikings are not looking to add Asante Samuel Jr or any other vet CB anytime soon.
“Vikings just aren’t interested. And this agent thinks nothing is going to happen anytime soon.”
https://thevikingage.com/asante-samuel-jr-has-minnesota-vikings-fans-loud-front-office-quiet
I trust our front office, if they don’t think they need him, then they don’t need him
once i saw he still has a neck issue, i didn’t want him anymore.
I’m guessing the medical staff told them that it was probably an injury that wasn’t going away
they could always bring shaq griffin back if they felt they NEEDED another guy, he knows the system and did FINE for us
I think Gilmore is still available too.
he old. but yes he is
Think they give him a year. 35 Sept, think.
Gilmore retired
This job still surprises me some days. I have to do occupancy inspections once borrowers get 45 days behind, and I’ll bet four of my inspections this week are for homes worth over $750,000.
The Teacher had ‘Bus Duty’ at the school and parents who lived in Section 8 (subsidizing) housing and who’s kids were in the Free Meal System would pull up with Rolex’s, in Escalades, and talking on the newest iPhones.
Learning to ‘game the system’ is the best way to get ahead now days.
Or perhaps they had some “undeclared” income…
So ‘undeclared income’ is not part of ‘gaming the system’?
These folks got loans for these homes, quite the opposite of what you’re talking about.
I always say you have no idea how your neighbors doing…it’s the millionaire next door paradox…millionaires live in ordinary homes and drive ordinary cars. It’s the people living in the million dollar homes driving the fancy new BMW and sending their kids to private school that are in hock up to their eyeballs. Ergo I would expect more foreclosures on million dollar homes than $100,000 homes.
PS I’m poor
Very true.
In the 2 short years I’ve been doing this, most of the foreclosures I’ve run into have been in the middle range. A majority of them have either been a divorce or an addiction situation.
I have noticed that significantly more of the homes are in the higher price range in the last few months, not sure if that’s just a temporary thing or a trend.
Well, people make bad decisions.
Yup, even people smart enough to have very high incomes. From my experience in real estate, many people buy homes that are more expensive than what they can actually afford. I do my best to council them otherwise.
We did that in 98. Got pre qualified for up to 165. I was looking for houses around 125, Wife finds a house for 170 and I have no spine, so we bought it with an extra 5k down payment. Stupid decision that happened to work out. I was in year 4 of doing IT work, and changed jobs for 20% more pay the day after closing.
“Stock market keeps going UP darn it.
Those darn Trump Tariffs are soooo bad causing all of these problems by increasing the market today.”
Is that how this is supposed to work???
They are so off balance by the Trump Tariffs that they don’t know if they should buy or sell.
All DJTs fault of course.
Very true.
High inflation one day.
Recessions the next day.
Defending criminal gang members.
They are twisted, that’s for sure.
Yep, it is elitism, now poor people can’t afford to buy stocks.
I was entertained by the answers, but I went ahead and Googled it anyway.
The key difference between regular olive oil and extra virgin olive oil lies in their production methods and resulting quality. Extra virgin olive oil is cold-pressed and unrefined, meaning no heat or chemicals are used in its extraction, preserving more of its natural flavors and nutrients. Regular olive oil, on the other hand, may be refined and/or heated during processing, resulting in a lighter color, milder flavor, and potentially lower nutrient content.
Also olive oil should be used as close to fresh as possible (sounds obvious I know) but if its been on the shelf a long time or youve had it open a long time it should be replaced, it will look fine and sizzle fine but if you are looking for flavor and nutrients as fresh as possible is key. Stuff is expensive haha
I believe EVOO can go rancid whereas regular OO cannot. I may be wrong, but I believe I heard that in my food safety training.
Good to know. Although, we go through olive oil rather quickly around our house, so it shouldn’t be a problem.
all those shoulder and backrubs…
“Back rubs” eh??
Insert DeShaun Watson/Justin Tucker joke
Doesn’t extra virgin also refer to it being the first, fresh press from the olives, virgin is second with some refinement, and regular is that last bit they are able to squeeze out (chemically)? That was my rememberance of it and I tried to get in on the jokes while also answering the question correctly.
Pretty good roster, tbh.
OFFENSE
DEFENSE
I didn’t list everyone, but I’m excited to see how it all comes together, especially in the trenches.
Agreed,
The roster is in very good shape.
LOL yup
Sitting pretty, IMO
Busts!
Laughing… now THAT’s funny Booker.
Didn’t see the game but thought i read 7 for 47 beyond the arc, Ant 0-11. If true glad i didn’t.
I’m very happy the Wolves ousted the Lakers. I hope the T-Pups win it all.
That said, I watched the game last night, and the NBA is still very hard to watch these days.
it would be really nice to see them crack down on the CONSTANT complaining.
i wonder if there would be a way to penalize a player if they scream AND ONEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE and hold their arms up for multiple seconds looking at the ref…
It definitely includes the complaining. Man, they whine about every call. I told my wife there is such a huge difference between NBA and NHL. NBA is a bunch of entitled little babies. The NHL is a bunch of dudes willing to be hacked, slashed, checked, lose teeth, and be hurt as long as they win.
But it’s also the game these days. Every possession is getting open for a three point shot, and if not getting open then driving and trying/crying/whining for a foul. So boring.
I miss the 90s and early 2000s of NBA.
Amen. The 80s were even better, Magic & Bird were something to watch.
With Dr J and many others.
Agreed, the non-stop whining is sickening. I also don’t like watching 4 billion 3 pointers shot every game. No strategy anymore.
I would love to ref an NBA game. I would wreak chaos on complainers.
Crowd would probably hate me though. I’d toss players if they didn’t shut up, and no one pays to see a ref toss people.
Every time my wife leaves to ref a volleyball game, I tell her to make sure she tosses someone out.
She never does.
…yet probably should.
Sports parents can be the worst these days, too.
(apparently me
todayevery day:)Welcome to the club.
Absolutely
The wise decision would be to just google the question that I have. However, the answers I will get on here will be much more entertaining.
What is the difference between olive oil and extra virgin olive oil?
With extra virgin, you have less chance of catching syphilis
Well Plaid.
Rec for you Good Sir.
But what about other sexually transmitted diseases or Crabs?
extra virgin olive oil comes with a condom.
I’m going to guess the extra virgin olive oil is more pure.
Olive Oyl has had 3 ways with Popeye and Brutus. Extra virgin olive oil has not.
Does that mean that regular olive oil has already been used?
Extra virgin means you get to taste the first nectar of the olive. Nobody has had a taste of that nectar before.
I asked my wife that question once and she actually knew the real answer and explained it to me. I don’t recall it now though. Yes I have TMS… Terminal Memory Shortage…
I have CRS…..Can’t Remember Shit
Laughing… brothers in arms GF.
What bothers me is my wife forgets shit too.
When she forgets, there is a logical explanation.
When I forget, it’s like a medical problem and I need to fix it.
I knew you guys wouldn’t disappoint.
It’s the same petroleum based oil but one costs more.
According to Secretary of State Marco Rubio, “No president has done so much, so quickly, to keep Americans safe abroad”.
In just 100 days, we’ve secured the release of 47 unjustly detained Americans around the world – including in Afghanistan, Russia, and Venezuela – through high-level diplomatic efforts.
Kuwait has also released nearly two dozen detained Americans in the past two months.
Trump is feared, and respected around the world. He wields Presidential power in a way I’ve never seen in my lifetime.
Why is Kuwait detaining Americans?
I can only assume it is for breaking their laws which can be strange for visiting Americans.
I don’t know, but Kuwait is an Islamic country, with Sharia law. Americans are foolish, and often do things insulting to Islam. They also think because they’re American, they are immune to local laws and customs. They aren’t.
There are Americans that think they are immune to American laws also.
Apparently
I wonder if the agents for the incoming rookies are perfectly honest with their clients. Do they tell them that the federal government will be taking a chunk of their big shiny new contract, not only for income tax but also for fica and medicare? Do they tell them that their state and possibly their city will also tax them? Do they tell them that some cities that they play in, even though they are not citizens, will also want to tax them? Do they also tell them that the NFL taxes them? The NFL calls it fines, but a fine implies that it is for doing something wrong and in the NFL, if you don’t do something wrong, they will find something and call it wrong so they can “fine” (tax) you. Even if you make a perfect hit that is completely legal, all it takes is for a group to start whining about it on social media and the PR (tax) department will jump in with a fine so it will appear the NFL is doing something right. And if they can’t get you for that, they will get you because after the tackle one of your socks was lower than the other and you don’t look professional. I hope those guys that I saw on tv getting drafted have a plan to sell that massive bling they had on because they may need it to pay the fines.
Do you believe that all of that will keep young men from perusing the dream that they have worked for years to achieve.
Many/most still feel that the rewards outweigh the risks.
Of course the reward is still great, I just wonder if someone is honest with them to let them know that a $10 million contract doesn’t mean $10 million. Plus my real point was to lambast the NFL and their “fines”.
I understand that the NFL is ‘Entertainment not Sports’ and so that their rules are not always (ok seldom) logical.
That said, even if young players understood all of that it would not discourage the vast majority of them.
Death and taxes… everyone knows this. The bigger the contract, the more you pay. The libs want the rich to pay more, while spending 2 Trillion dollars more than they bring in and increasing the National debt every single year.
Since the 1960s, only five years have had balanced federal budgets: 1969 under President Richard Nixon; 1998, 1999 and 2000 under Bill Clinton; and 2001 under George W. Bush.
Trump is thinking tariffs can offset taxation to some degree, to increase external income, to reduce or even eliminate the IRS and taxes. I doubt this is possible, but increasing external income to the Government will definitely have a positive impact if the politicians don’t waste it.
The last I heard, Trump’s tariffs were already generating $2B a day in external income. If they increase to $3B a day, they will generate over a Trillion dollars a year in external income.
Have to increase revenue other than taxation. Traditionally the feds have taxed at approx 17% of the GDP. There is (I hope) a limit to what citizens are willing to pay in taxes. Will tariffs act as a de facto VAT with the consumer paying it? If so how will tariffs effect the average household? I truthfully don’t know how this plays out.
Tariffs do not effect consumers unless they buy tariffed goods.
So buy American and ‘poof’ no tariff.
Amazing how that works.
my agent didn’t tell me ANYTHING about all of that.
You should probably fire her.
I learned that shit at a young age, got my first job as soon as I was 14 & old enough to get a job. I needed beer money.
I didn’t have time to get a job until I went to college. Kinda busy on the ole farm. But I still knew what taxes are.
I think most know this.
What many NFL players don’t know is how to manage it.
If someone is graduating from high school and doesn’t understand how progressive taxation works, that is on the educators of that adult, not the agent.
I love these monster contracts. Think how many federal and state dollars are spent in your county thanks to diva athletes and movie stars, singers, etc…LOVE THEM! TAY TAY YOU DA BOMB!
I had intentions of going to bed after half time last night, I showered, came back out and it was still close with 7 min left in the 4th. Sat down and finished it. Ugly game that would have been a blow out if they had it 1/3 more of their shots. That cant continue, better teams will make them pay for that type of performance. Ants body language seemed off all game, 2nd guessing, hesitant, shot not in sync. I started kicking it out more and moving the ball which was nice but he still forced a lot of 3s. Whole team did. Oh well, win ugly > lose pretty.
Big win, Big win….I don’t think they forced a lot of 3s…most of them were good looks, absolutely could not shoot.
Well, forced as in, they were getting open looks down in the paint with the size mismatch, especially when Ant was on the permitter and getting double teamed, instead of taking advantage of that size, they chose to shoot 3s. Oh well, they will have to re tool their line ups a bit for Golden State who I think will take it but, maybe not?
Hard to say if they retool or not. I think they play the same starting 5, but how soon and how much Reid and Devanchenzo play might change. Alexander Walker has to get his confidence back, I expect he will play more and I wouldn’t be surprised if we see more Shannon.
Ant, is that YOU?!?!
Lol whooopsie, cant edit it now
Too late. The truth is already out there.
wow this is big. no wonder kfey has such outlandish takes and acts like a child, he’s a 23 year old nba superstar
Who complains about being broke dont forget that part
I was in bed just after tip off. Pretty sure I was snoozing by 9:30.
This is for JRO_42 if you are here brother!
On to Steph and dirty ass D-Green.
I like D-Green, one of the few players who still plays the game.
You’re joking
No, I’m Brad.
So the NFL sent the phone numbers of draft prospects to all coaches in the NFL in a non confidential email, including the Falcons DC.
And then the NFL fines the Falcons.
Don’t you just love the NFL?
Can’t fine themselves.
I’m going to fine all of you for making comments about the absolute absurdity of the NFL. Please send your fine money to [email protected].
Laughing… count on me VP… will do.
Since I received a thumbs down on this comment I can only assume that someone has no sense of humor, or a great sense of humor. Or our Chinese overlord was not amused.
Maybe someone was giving you street cred?
Otherwise our resident mouth breather is doing downvotes that only make sense to him/her/whatever.
I’m going with the MSS, or freezey, he likes to give out street cred.
i appreciate you
I know you like to see your name in print, so I wanted to make your day.
i don’t know. The “thumbs down” counter is negative, so, mathematically, it means 2 people give you the opposite of thumbs down!
Damn, with logic like this, I could be a Democrat
It makes perfect sense to me.
I don’t know if that is completely accurate DE. I would expect a list like that would have been sent to all the GM’s vice all the coaching staffs. I don’t actually know how the list was disseminated though.
Also, I heard each player was issued a phone by the NFL? Didn’t know they did that.
https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/nfl-sent-shedeur-sanderss-phone-number-directly-to-jeff-ulbrich
Thanks, weird process.
Isn’t it hilarious? I had to post the stories one after the other just to make the point.
Yep. And not surprising.
Over the weekend when people were outraged about the prank call, my response was what’s the NFL gonna do? Investigate itself?
Funny stuff.
The NFL is a clown show run by buffoons. Goodell is a dipshit.
When Goodell comes to the mike at the draft and people boo him, he gets a little peevish. Dude you are getting paid a crap ton of money by the owners to get booed. While he probably deserves it, the owners are the ones that are propping him up.
He is their puppet, nothing more.
Exactly, he’s a useful idiot. Nothing more.
Do we know the contents of the email weren’t marked confidential in some way?
Not my favorite source, but according to Florio, the email wasn’t marked confidential.

sehr gut…
How do Germans tie their shoelaces?
In little Nazis…
KNazis?
Everybody loves a comeback story!
That one’s good too.
if you told me the wolves would miss 40 3 pointers and still win…. i wouldn’t have believed it.
wow the Lakers have a trash team besides Lebaby and lukrybaby
Caps beat the Canadiens 4-1 last night, and won the series 4-1 as well. On to round 2, Caps vs Hurricanes.
Life is just a little bit better with Lebron gone…
Hopefully for good. If that was is last game in the league, going out in a whimper, it would be poetic.
yes, yes it is.
Lebron is essentially why I quit watching the NBA.
I pretty much stop watching due to Harden and ‘bullyball’.
But I tapered off quite a bit after Lebron joined the Lakers.
BLM stopped what little was left cold.
The super teams are what got me to tune out a little before those other things.
On to round 2, for the puppies.
Was able to stay up for the Wolves game last night, so I am running on about 4 hours of sleep today. But, I will try not to be a crab ass like freezy.
I recorded it. From what I hear, I won’t bother watching. I’ll just be happy with the score.
I watched the local broadcast, with the homer announcers. I recorded the National broadcast, so I can go back and listen to them cry about LeBron losing.
That is good thinking. Pundit tears are delicious.
I shall drink of the tears of my enemy.
I loved the comment by Kenny (I think) at the VERY end of this, “They’re going to the Western Conference Finals.” Sounded like Chuck saying “I don’t know about that” back to him.
GM!
FTP!
SKOL!
FTP Auto Rec.
Wow. Maybe the NBA isn’t rigged.
It is rigged.
There is just no talent in LA anymore.
This is true, the refs did everything in their power to change the outcome of the game. Two of our starters were in foul trouble early and didn’t get to play most of the 1st half. Unfortunately for the Lakers, our bench is super deep.
Golden State will be a tougher out. They can shoot but again, not a lot of rim protection aside from Draymon blatantly fouling in the paint.
