Thorsday Open Thread
Good Morning!
I’m back on service for the next seven days so links and words will get filled in up here in the words no one reads as I have time before/after work. I am looking forward to this weekend’s game as the Chargers have a better team than their record indicates; most of all I want a Vikings win, no injuries and come back to the Bank for the last two regular season games. Also, permit me to be the first to say “Go Bears” this weekend. Meanwhile, let’s carry on with our news and links open thread full of beer recommendations, nap strategies, crock pot and smoker recipes. Drop by for some fan wisdom, snark and enjoy Thorsday, it only comes once a week.

Again, we all know the rules, but in case someone is new:
-No discussion of politics or religion
-No feeding of the trolls
-Leave the gender hatred at the door
-Keep the bad language to a minimum (using the spoiler tags, if you must)
-Speaking of which, if discussing a newer show or movie, please use spoiler tags
-No pictures that could get someone fired or in serious trouble with their employer
-If you can’t disagree in a civil manner, feel free to go away
-While navigating the open thread, just assume it’s sarcasm.
With that, the beer light is on and the bar is open. Belly up & tie one on. Don’t forget to tip your waiter, and Welcome Aboard!
