105th edition of My Random Thoughts: Sports, TV, music, food, life.....

I don't fly much. When I do fly, I'm reminded why I don't fly much. What a hassle.

Sure sign my kids have grown up: My conversation with Peyton was about her needing a Shark Vacuum for Christmas for her apartment. 

I appreciate all that Jonathan India did and meant. But he didn't have a starting spot on the '25 Reds. They traded surplus to help a need. Simple. Sound.

Ever have one of the Sports Illustrated football phones that came with a subscription?

We watched Planes, Trains and Automobiles Thursday night! It was Peyton's first time.

I was studying our hotel bill: City tax, Sports Tax, State Tax, State Recovery Fee, Destination Fee, Tourism Fee. Sigh.

I'm a local TV news junkie. I even watch on vacation. I like evaluating the market talent, graphics, presentation, etc.

Christmas decorations should be 1. Tree. 2. Stockings 3. Only what else can be carried up from the basement in one trip.

We ordered a Bowman & Landes smoked turkey from Kremer's Market in Crescent Springs. Oh man. It was good.

I think it's clear Scott Satterfield is never going to win over the UC fan base. And John Cunningham can't fire him. What a deflating situation.

Do you remember a tabletop basketball game with two domed sides in which each player punched buttons to shoot the ball? The score tracker rose out of the top of the game with each made basket.

Matt McLain might get hurt again, but it would make no sense to keep India simply as insurance. Not when the Reds could add a 28-year pitcher that made more starts and threw more innings than anyone in the Reds organization last year.

All due respect to first class passengers, but wouldn't it be more efficient to have passengers board the plane starting with the back rows first, creating lets pile up at the front?

I'm worn out by Danny Hurley's act.

That salted caramel frosty at Wendy's looks incredible.

I've never believed in puzzles. They seem like a misallocation of time and energy.

I love putting a scoop of all Thanksgiving leftovers together for a sandwich or panini.

Indiana basketball is wasting time with Mike Woodson.

Reminder: If you are considering visiting San Antonio, I'd be happy to pass along our notes/experiences. Email me lance@lancemcalister.com

With GABP, the Reds have to scout/draft/develop and also trade for pitching. Free agent pitchers with options will never pick GABP.

Don't worry about things you don't care about
