    I'm ready for the zero-day-rest Harden.

    I'm really curious to see this game, we lost the two previous games against the Clippers but between injuries and other stuff we played like trash to start the season so, i expect a win here.

    Okay those 2 losses to the Clippers were at the very beginning of the season when we were total horse dookie.
    1st game CP3 was suspended for this

    2nd game Harden didn't play.

    And we had the likes of Melo MCW Ennis and Hartenstein in the rotation.

    Clippers need to get introduced to the new Rockets. LOS NUEVOS ROCKETS.

    Statement game. Get some momentum rolling into the final few games of the season.

    We'll have a psychological advantage over the Clippers if we waltz into their house and beat them, and then we match up with them in the first round.

    Ever since we banished 1/2 our team to LA for CP, they've had an axe to grind.
    They've always played us tough. Need to send a message now that we have a healthy team.
    They could be our 1st round opponent

    YES!! Harden, with a passing of his friend and having 2 nights off, he only put up 36 points (isnt that crazy to say??? "ONLY put up 36"). On a b2b night, back in LA where his buddy was killed - i expect nothing less than a 50+ point triple double.

    to be fair to Harden, it was only 29 minutes and in a blowout. Harden did see what WB did to dedicate the game to NH, I think Harden going to go for it big unless we blow the hell out of the clippers

    You're talking to someone who was building computers starting back in the mid-1970's. IMSAI 8080's and the microcomputer they were cloned from, the Altair 8800. My point is that my kids blew right by my contemporary knowledge in their Austin magnet middle school and I've been eating their dust ever since (our oldest is a software developer making 6 figures, the other a recent graduate looking for a design job in the game industry).

    I've no experience with Reddit or Twitter (or Facebook, which I know more about, but never trusted enough to join), or the other more arcane things you mentioned, except "from a remove." In other words, what I've heard about them, or seen evidence of here and elsewhere, Twitter, more than the rest, but that's pretty much it.

    I deeply appreciate your suggestions, but are there any that are extremely simple to use for a retired cat like me? I know a hell of a lot about a host of things, but have avoided this particular aspect of our current "advanced" society. Our trivia team here in Austin, together for a decade now, win often. One reason is that we're never asked those particular types of questions, thank god! ;-)
