Thanks a lot, Lexus, for running a Lexus December to Remember commercial complete with your vehicles displayed with those big red bows. Thanks, thanks a lot.
BoyGeeding was Snake Eyes from G.I. Joe and I’m glad he didn’t run into this kid otherwise there could have been trouble. During trick-or-treating, I noticed he wasn’t saying “thank you” like his sister and confronted him about it. He said, “Dad, Snake Eyes never talks.” Well, the kid’s got a point and kudos for him staying in character, but I told him he should at least do a noticeable bow. The next house just happened to be opened by an elderly Japanese woman and she seemed touched by his gesture.
Yesterday, a neighbor friend of kids came over with all of his Halloween candy and for then hour all of them did nothing but trade candy with each other without one piece being consumed.
WifeGeeding made the kids separate, categorize, and chart their candy. Remember, she was the one worried about DaughterGeeding being upset for being too hard on herself for not making a 100 on her homework every time.
With the abundance of U2 songs being played during the World Series, it was no surprise the band announced a new album and tour. The album drops the first of December and the new tour will open in . . . Tulsa, on May 2nd. The tour will only be in 15 North American cities and Tulsa is the closest. If I go through my back surgery as planned, I won’t be well enough to go.
It’s an arena tour, not a stadium tour, think more American Airlines Center than AT&T Stadium. There’s some confusion of how the stage will be set up, TicketMaster shows three different stage designs when you compare San Jose, DC, and NYC. The last time they came to DFW, I thought they would perform more in the middle than at the end of the stadium. I was wrong and my seats stunk.
There’s also some confusion for fan club members who used their special presale tickets for the last tour. It looks like to get presale tickets, fan club members will have to renew their membership again, but I’m not really sure.
President Trump is a visionary. All these men in the entertainment industry are getting in trouble for sexual assault. He must have seen this coming and moved to politics.
SI.com – From Staubach to Dak: An Oral History of the Cowboys’ Quarterbacks – From Roger Staubach and Troy Aikman to Tony Romo and Dak Prescott, quarterbacking America’s Team is unlike any other job in football. We asked the men who know better than anyone else about life in the NFL’s brightest spotlight
I'm still trying to digest that last bullet… It's like trying Sushi for the first time; I think I like it, but will like it more when my brain stops trying to figure it all out.
I'm so torn on U2. I feel like they'll add a leg at some point that will include a stop in Texas. I would love to travel to see them, but I'm about to have a massively busy Spring at work and I have 2 other trips in the works.
I'm thinking the Madison Square Gardens stage configuration is the correct one. It is identical to the Songs of Innocence layout and I wouldn't be surprised if they went with that same set up since this seems to be the companion tour to that one. I saw them there in 2015 and, in a perfect world, I would go back there to see this tour. We'll see.
As for Trump abandoning Hollywood ahead of the sexual harassment and abuse scandal, I think it's only a matter of time before this permeates through the political and sports worlds as well.
With only 15 stops in North America, the odds of a second leg seem high, but then again, that's what I thought about the I/E tour, which I missed and would have preferred over the latest Joshua Tree tour. I loved the setup of the I/E stage, there didn't appear to be a bad seat in the house and visually spectacular.

"Yesterday, a neighbor friend of kids came over… " – AWESOME
"WifeGeeding made the kids separate… " – HYSTERICAL!
