Yeah, in the replay it's clear Max stayed wide. Still seems like Norris was trying to overtake sooner than he needed to in a tough turn.

Holy shit. Norris just fucked 'em both.

Tell Me About Texas a&m
My wife was in Spring last weekend visiting her twin sis (no pics). She told me how the aggy BIL made a total ass of himself after they won game 1 by drunkenly screaming, whooping & cursing at the moon from his backyard. He's friends with most of his neighbors & everyone's known him to be a drunken, loud buffoon over the years. I'm wondering what got destroyed by him throwing it in their pool last night after the loss?

The Girl w/ The Dragon Tattoo--Swedish trilogy
Binged all 3 + watched the Fincher version again this weekend. Although the Swedish version (mostly) followed the source material more closely, they also ignored some aspects completely (like the Blomkvist/Erika relationship & its impact on Lisbeth's actions). Overall, they were ok. I still preferred Fincher's interpretation.

That makes sense. Same thing happened w/ Master & Commander as I recall.

existential question…
- The Girl w/ The Dragon Tattoo--Swedish trilogy
Does this mean every other scene will begin with someone having coffee and sandwiches? 😉 Or, on the positive side, is Blomkvist having sex with every other woman he encounters and if so, are they hot?- The Girl w/ The Dragon Tattoo--Swedish trilogy
Yeah, Claire Foy played her in The Girl in the Spider's Web which I think was based on the unfinished 4th book by Stieg Larsson. I've never watched it & have heard nothing about it that makes me want to seach for it. Apparently both Craig & Mara really liked their characters & wanted to make the next 2, but Fincher said he wasn't interested & that was the end of it.- The Girl w/ The Dragon Tattoo--Swedish trilogy
Anyone seen it/recommend? I really enjoyed the Finch version w/ Craig & Mara. I'm still shocked that it flopped & they scrapped plans for the other 2. I'm almost through reading the books after a friend loaned them to me the other week. Mrs GOTJ is going to be out of town this weekend & I'm thinking about binging the Swedish trilogy but before I fork over the money to stream them or do the free trial then drop dance I thought I'd ask the crowd. The books are so-so, but the Lisabeth Salander character is compelling. I know the Swedish actor who portrays her received a lot of accolades for her performance. Worth it or nah?- 1980s Kids: Brats - Andrew McCarthy Doc about The Brat Pack, June 13, Hulu
Rob Lowe comes across as a very self-aware dude. I've heard him do some guest DJing on E Street Radio & he talks candidly about being a kid with a crazy dream of being an actor, not knowing how he was going to accomplish that goal, but knowing it would take a lot of work & determination to get anywhere. He doesn't bitch like some & complain he's not taken seriously as an actor because he's handsome. He knows his limitations & accepts that he gets work because he's a very good looking character actor. That's not a bad career 40 years down the road.- Old Man Yells at Cloud (or "Classic" songs that suck)
Black Magic Woman by Santana--which seems to be playing on a radio station at all times somewhere in San Antonio--is example 1A for me. I'm switching channels before the sustain on that first note rings.- Elon Musk: Nazi traitor piece of shit [Confirmed]
On my drive home yesterday I passed a car hauler on 183N loaded with CTs. Since traffic was creeping along at about 30 mph I could watch the other drivers on the road laugh as that hauler full of stupid passed by. Maybe Elmo's sending a couple dozen of them to Amarillo and gonna sink 'em nose first into the ground to create Cybertruck Ranch?- Desantis is a POS and needs his own thread

Wait, what? I no shit had to look his age up. I would have said Elko was a rough 56. *Note to self: entry #1 in the 2025 dead pool = Elko, M.- I'm An Alcoholic
We've sent the DIL the links to these reports on auto-brewery syndrome. The BIL is scheduled for his next checkup in a couple weeks & this should be brought to the Dr's attention. Saw him a couple weeks ago & he was reasonably ok for the 2 hours we were with him. I saw him drink one beer, his mood was mostly in check (it was an emotional event so he gets the benefit of the doubt). When he started to drift towards concerning behavior he voluntarily excused himself & went to his room to nap in a quiet environment. Reports since then have been more of the same: good days with occasional episodes of belligerent behavior.- The GQP: Trumpist Death Cult
