    Aside from S2 of course, what sites do you like for killing some time? StumbledUpon used to be great for discovering something new. Aside from sports, social media, and news sites, I like

    The Far Side (updated daily!)
    Reddit - I could get lost there for hours
    The Onion
    BookBub - Great site for book lovers
    Politico
    Yahoo
    BaT - Great for car buffs

    You?

    Besides everything you mentioned in the first paragraph, Reddit. And any website I have to use for work, because that really does "kill" time. I did use StumbleUpon a few years ago but I think I got a new computer or reformatted or something and it didn't come over in my bookmarks. So I just never went back to it.

    I mean, if Keith Richards' lifestyle and bad habits haven't killed him, what chance does Covid have?

    It’s okay I came in here wondering who was going to say a porn site and it took longer than I expected.

    Here and at OLive's Politics forum. Otherwise I spend time with my wife and watch movies and the news. Also enjoy Deadliest Catch, Nova, Frontline, Nature, How the Universe Works and All on the Line about fishing for blue fin tuna off the NE coast of the U.S. Once in a blue moon watch Austin Music.

    A couple of weeks ago I met up with a couple of old grade school buddies (we’re all 66 years old) at a local park for some socially distanced elbow bending. Among the topics of conversation was one on what kind of world we want to leave behind for Keith Richards to live in......................................................................:drumroll:
