  1. I grew up in the panhandle and don’t at all mind a long drive, but judging a towns value by the proximity to a different place +/- 200 miles away is laughable. Ely, NV is great. You’re only a 4hr drive from the Vegas strip!
  2. Excuse me miss, hop in and give me directions to San Felipe and River Oaks.
  3. Sorry bros. I made 2 L games in person this year. Made it home in this shitshow. I’m done. I’ll watch from home until the postseason.
  4. But that ERA booster for the midweek starter.
  5. Flatter than a tabletop Makes you wonder why they stopped here Wagon must have lost a wheel or they lacked ambition one
  6. We join the TundaMinous already in progress.
  7. Have you ever met a proctologist? Well, they usually have a very good sense of humor. You meet a proctologist at a party, don't walk away. Plant yourself there, because you will hear the funniest stories you've ever heard. See, no one wants to admit to them that they stuck something up there. Never! It's always an accident. Every proctologist story ends in the same way: "It was a million to one shot, Doc. Million to one."
  8. You mean the panties your mother laid out for you...
  9. Hang out until August 1 for XIT rodeo and reunion, (Bellamy Brothers this year!)They used to throw little plastic frisbees that made good coasters. The XIT Museum webpage was proud to announce I’m visitor 1,246 since 7/1/2003. www.xitmuseum.com (try not to crash the server) without a doubt the finest free admission donations accepted museum in all of Dallam County, Hartley too...although I haven’t been to Channing in 15ish years...
  10. That goes into a whole side conversation for pluckers. I’m a trimmer with an occasional tune-up pluck. I much prefer group plucks to individual hairs. I recently found out my bro-in-law prefers single hair plucking, and as a result may be a masochist. Why extend the sneezing and pain by plucking your nostril hair by hair?
  11. From a DK article in April. I think it all comes down to age and how he pitches. He may still be calculating only from the major market win numbers. I’d definitely be looking back to 2015 and sure he is too.
  12. Goo is correct. Cat is out of the bag.
  13. Too lazy to google, but she was knocked up for one of - Ultron or CA-CW, both? Probably hard to squeeze in a solo action movie for a pregnant A-lister that already had a full schedule. My question is the BW solo film going to be a prequel, seems dumb for one of the first films of phase 4. Or is it another tie-in with Gamora and whatever other multiverse characters looking for a way out of the soul stone world?
  14. Absolutely. I think he didn’t get it out in time, and now he has fan feedback and reputation and the self-doubt is crippling. I don’t think he even knows if the good guys win or if they die. Do characters make it with a hero’s redemption arc or do they get cut down because that’s life? There’s a interview with Stephen King a couple years ago where GRRM wants to know how he writes so fast. King writes pages every morning, even if it’s shit and he hates it and rewrites, he puts something down on paper. He has enough out there that people criticize his work and his endings and he doesn’t really care. People think the books are better than the screenplays or vice versa. Some are winners some flop. It doesn’t matter to him anymore. This is all GRRM feels he has. It’s what he is known for. He had awards for Novellas and short stories, but hadn’t written or wrapped his epic before it started winning big prizes including the screen adaptation Emmys. If he had the discipline to write everyday he could have written 3 or 4 conclusions, sent them to editors and burned the losers. But he didn’t he wrote himself into a corner started smelling his own farts then realized there was a 50/50 chance he’d shit his pants, so the last 8 years he’s been standing in the corner afraid to move.
  15. Can some of y’all that follow college baseball with fervor post some info on his teams at Sam and Tulane? Or before and after his stays? I know Mark Johnson had SHSU pretty much rolling when he took over, and new guy had them in a super regional last year, or year before. This will be by far be his worst year as a HC. His 7 years as a head coach he’s always made a regional, and his first post Augie year was the only sub-500 conf record. Is this a Strong scenario where we expect past limited sample size results to predict future performance? But the hype was all from Teddy Bridgewater in a single SugarBowl? Not that there was Pierce hype, but “always made a regional” sounded great on his resume.
  16. Yeah. I give zero shits about teleporting. It is part of GRRMs writing style, and goes back to S1. Even in the books you don’t know if 4mins or 4 weeks have passed between each characters’ chapter. Aside from putting up giant “2 weeks later. DragonStone” title blocks or a “24” chime and clock I’m not sure what the illiterates are looking for.

  18. Car blocking walk/drive Ridiculous price for used - fixture/furniture/toys/clothing Mow yer lawn - needs a companion square of “sweep/blow your walk”
  19. The great bard Lee Roy of House Parnell of Abilene predicted all this shit. Dany, Jon, and Hound-Arya
