  1. I haven’t done this, but I’ve sure looked at such a journey for just the wife and I (no pics). First of all, RPM is exactly right-you’re gonna need a bigger truck. Substantially bigger-those places aren’t all in the flatlands. Second, Grasshopper, if you think trailer hookups equate to cell service and/or WiFi, you need to get out and explore some-I can show you several nice “campgrounds” with all hookups within 150 miles of Austin with zilch cell service. Nada. Just wait until New Mexico, Colorado, Wyoming, etc. I like your philosophy and your list, but plan this very carefully.
  2. Only an average of 13 or so cases of trichinosis reported in the US each year—almost all from eating wild/feral hogs or bear. Commercial pork? Zero to 1 (perhaps) every year. I can’t stand burnt bacon. Internal temp of 145 means death to the parasite.
  3. I live 50 miles from Llano, and keep giving Cooper’s another chance, but somehow they continue to disappoint me; pork chops are good, if you’re planning on taking a bunch of food home, and the beans are good. YMMV. Please post a review........
  4. My father taught at West Texas State U from the mid-60’s to the mid-70’S. We saw every home game that Duane Thomas and Mercury Morris played in, sometimes from the sidelines, depending on how Dad was getting along with Joe Kerbel. Duane was a tremendous back, instincts, speed, and power equal to Dickerson or probably Simpson, maybe edging into Earl territory. Morris, though, was unbelievable. Fastest player I’ve ever seen in cleats and pads, including J”Lam”J, Dorsett’s 99 yard touchdown, and Deion’s closing speed on receivers. And Mercury drove a new white Corvette w/red interior every year-I worked part-time at the gas station where he had his “charge account.”
  5. Great, thanks! Might make a tuna melt edible
  6. I’m impressed with the grilled cheese, but what is “spicy avo sauce?” I need to know more about this.....
  7. Dez? I don’t figure he can get on the field anywhere.....
  8. So what does this mean for Dez...........?
  9. We have to hope they fast track a vaccine to be ready to go ASAP. They would be dumb not to. Sounds like a few are already going into human trials. Even if the vaccine is 90% effective, that is better than we are now. I kinda hate to mention this, but do you realize that our flu vaccines are only about 40-45% effective in good years? The Coronavirus has already shown rapid mutability; 90% effectiveness may be a dream. Got my fingers crossed, though!
  10. Whataburger parking lot...spicy ketchup special memory, keeps on giving.
  11. Absolutely; however, what I see in my end of care (pharmacy, but only for a little while-) is that patients get antidepressants thrown at them with little follow up and no recommendation at all for counseling, psychologist time, etc. mediocre outcomes and a therapeutic disaster, IMO.
  12. No problem at all with the various stated studies—just saying, moderation in all things. I don’t do soy milk (rice instead) or opt for soy burgers; there’s plenty of soy, like hidden sugars, in foods we don’t really examine closely. It’s just not really a historical human food, and as (still, dammit) a practicing pharmacist, i deal with literally 100+ patients with clinical and subclinical hypothyroidism monthly; soy intake is just one more risk factor it’s easy to avoid in my already risk-filled life. Also, i recommend soy isoflavones all the time for menopausal and perimenopausal symptoms with good results, so I know it’s hitting the estrogen receptors. YMMV
  13. Yes, soy isoflavones are mild stimulators of estrogen receptors; also, some studies show a higher incidence of thyroid problems in those on high soy diets. I avoid the stuff as much as possible.
  14. You guys need to turn the sound down—I firmly believe that listening to Booger and Tessitore will cause brain damage.......
  15. Oh, for fuck’s sake! How do I put OP on ignore?
  16. This guy^^gets it
  17. This is a pitiful display by two awful teams. I feel for the people that paid to see this. Oh, wait, damn it, I’m paying too!
  18. Leon and a false start on a punt????
  19. “Barry, can you put your head under the car and look to see if the jack is in the right place?”
  20. I’m thinking either OC might be an upgrade......
  21. Was that a phantom face mask call? I never saw it on the replay....
  22. Fuck OU. Seems like LSU by 3 TD’s to me
  23. Dear football gods: please, please make this be true! He could be the NCAA compliance consultant/assistant without that pesky degree! Hell, title him the Minister of Culture-we and MM don’t care. The new face of aggy football-woop!
  24. Couldn’t figure out how to get the damned iPad to start the sentence with lower case; I promise to do better! I know, perhaps a phrasing problem.....
