Vacation Question...

Question: While on vacation would you rather have:

A) Food Poisoning

or

B) No Internet Access

Well, according to a recent survey (by Roku) more people would rather suffer from food poisoning while (47% say it is a disaster) on vacation than have no internet access (49% say it is a disaster).

In addition it takes Americans on average 26.5 minutes to ask for the wifi password at a vacation rental; and 31.1 minutes for kids to ask their parents to watch tv while vacationing.

Haliburton a 1st Rounder in latest CBS Mock

https://www.cbssports.com/college-b...heir-point-guard-with-no-1-overall-selection/

Has him going #25 to the Rockets. Author's write-up:

Houston needs to invest in a young point guard of the future, and Haliburton is a perfect fit on the Rockets, where James Harden primarily dominates the ball, for this reason: He was in the 91st percentile as spot-up shooter and rated in the 95th percentile in transition opportunitie as a freshman last season. His game should translate well to the NBA -- and particularly to a fit like Houston.

Purchasing Jr Cyclone Club tickets for Visitors?

Would it be possible to buy (or rent as I know it comes with a membership card) Jr. Cyclone club tickets for a game? I will have family in town for OK State and due to the sheer number of kids I am unable to purchase them all Jr Cyclone Club memberships. I think I have a buddy talked into buying Jr memberships for his brood even though he isn't a cyclone fan. I am pretty sure I can definitely talk him into it if I buy one or more of the games from him.

On the off chance this is possible and he doesn't buy the memberships, I would be interested in buying someone's tickets for kids and parents as mentioned above for the OK State game.

Thanks!

Over-the-air coax to HDMI question

I have DirecTV and am trying to cover my bases for the impending football season should DTV and the local stations 9 and 14 (Sioux City) not reach a resolution to their greedy ways. I am trying to find a somewhat cheap way to get these channels until the two stations come back.

Problem I have is that a couple years ago we remodeled and I only put a HDMI in the wall for the tv- that means that the OTA antenna we have hanging outside I cannot get the signal to the tv without having an ugly cord hanging out in the open. It would also be nice to have this installed for when storms blow through and the satellite goes out as a backup. Does anybody know of a converter that would convert a coaxial signal to an HDMI signal and then when I want to watch the ABC or CBS channels I can unplug the dish box and plug in the converter? Or if anybody has any other solutions (except cutting cable or switching to Dish Network- I have my reasons) please, I'm all ears.

TIA

Has anyone posted this article? Nothing people didn't already know but interesting nonetheless.
Avenatti's credibility is obviously not high, but it seems like they have at least messages detailing the payments even if they don't have evidence of the payments themselves.

That seems like a lot of weed

"Mike Tyson isn't shy about his love for marijuana.

On Monday's episode of his podcast, aptly named "Hotboxin' with Mike Tyson," the former heavyweight champion shared just how much he spends on the psychoactive drug.

"What do we smoke a month?" he asked his co-host, former NFL player turned marijuana advocate Eben Britton. "Is it $40,000 a month?"

"We smoke 10 tons of weed at the ranch a month," Britton said, referencing Tyson Ranch, the boxer's forthcoming 40-acre marijuana farm and "resort.""
