- This was the piece I posted here about using dogs to recover ashes after the California wildfires and the variety places they're kept. -- (link) - Meg Jan 29, 10:48 [Backboard]

- Two cats, no humans -- nm - Krusty Jan 29, 10:42

  - entirely up to you, but you could go to his favourite place and bury (or spread) as best you are able -- nm - mud Jan 29, 10:47 8

David, if the Charlotte thing is true, I also hope you’re right as well. - Tim Jan 29, 10:10 14
- If they can get 3 women's title matches that weekend that are Ripley/Charlotte -- Belair/Bayley -- Becky/Baszler --- that's amazing - Will Hunting Jan 29, 10:23 1
  - Belair was discovered by Mark Henry. She's a *star* -- nm - Remlik Jan 29, 11:22
- I'm not sure how Becky has stayed over given how terribly they've booked her this year. - David Jan 29, 10:19 11
  - Sasha has an ankle injury -- nm - Remlik Jan 29, 10:55
  - I think Sasha is finishing up an album and had an injury (sounds concussion'y) - Will Hunting Jan 29, 10:25 9
    - Here's my thing. There half a dozen women on NXT going nowhere, yet Lacey freakin' Evans has gotten a huge push. - David Jan 29, 10:27 8
      - Lacy can be a damn good heel. And she can be a damn good face. But they need to get her out of the Southern Belle thing. They brought her up to early - Remlik Jan 29, 10:59
      - How they've handled Bayley's character, Asuka, and Kairi Sane...even Becky's stories gives me some hope that Vince isn't - Will Hunting Jan 29, 10:31 4
        
        I quite like that Asuka and Kairi have gotten themselves over anyway. It reminds me of early New Day. -- nm - David, Troll Summoner Jan 29, 10:38 3
        
        I agree. they're fun. If they spoke english they'd be huge. The Becky/Asuka match at Rumble was a disapointment. -- nm - Remlik Jan 29, 11:09
        
        I really did like that Asuka's win last year over Becky ... Becky was good enough to get that match to be meaningful - Will Hunting Jan 29, 10:40 1
        
        I think that's just much harder to do in a division that is that small. Due respect to everyone else, Charlotte's talent is that dominating. - pmb Jan 29, 12:30
      - What's really bad is they're playing to her really good personal story...but they dress her like she's a southern belle? - Will Hunting Jan 29, 10:29 1
        
        I agree. they need to change up her look -- nm - Remlik Jan 29, 11:13
