    Point of clarification, AC is certainly not hot these days. Retirement has not been good to her. 

    You are correct that the bench was not deep especially back in those days. You had AC, Tera Patrick, Kobe Tai and… well that was about it. 

    Damn....  I stand corrected on "is".   Whoa.

    Sorry man, Macanudo fucked it up outta the gate when he said "Newsweek" instead of TIME magazine.  We all just followed suit. 

    Speaking of suits, they're no John Phillips London, but check out the bespoken coats at Asian Brawn for the more athletic fellow.  

    220, 221.   Whatever it takes.

    Apparently too poor to live in Amarillo. Had to settle for Borger. Bet that’s a fun place to visit. 

    In all fairness Ron White is from Fritch which is just down the road from Borger.  Which is the best thing to come out of that whole area.

    Among developed nations, the US leads in murders, mass murders, and gun murders by a wide margin.

    Not sure we're a developed nation anymore.

    As part of my hobby of Reading Old Books about Latin America, I was surprised to find that over the past 100 years, though the Darien Gap has always existed, the exact spots that people call "The Gap" have shifted. As in, places where you could travel OK in the 1920s are now considered impassible, while places where you couldn't cross in 1920 now have some sort of road system.

    I forget which way it shifted. Maybe it's better to think of it as a larger zone of random roads from very basic, to ruined.

    I think what you're saying is that the Darien Gap is also the Twilight Zone.

  6. And I get that, hence why I left out Roswell, Dalhart, Tucumcari,  et al.  Amarillo is 80 miles north of Lubbock (Texas Tech).  Raton is 4-5 hours from Amarillo, Lubbock and Albuquerque.   Trinidad is another 60 minutes away.  If an employer really thought about it, places like this would make a lot of sense especially those who want to sell the while "no state income tax" idea (for Amarillo

    If often wondered why more companies don't set up in Vancouver, WA.   No state income tax in WA and 0% sales tax in Oregon.   Live in WA and buy your big screen TVs and appliances in Portland.  Plus the scenic beauty of the PNW/Columbia River Gorge.

  7. I've wondered why some of the towns and cities in NW Texas (Amarillo), NE New Mexico (Raton) and E/SE Colorado (Limon, Trinidad and Pueblo) haven't blown up.   

    Say what you want about places like Amarillo or Pueblo but land is cheap to some degree and for some of those places you're only a couple of hours from tons of outdoor stuff (fishing, skiing, etc.)    In those two cities cases, you either have an airport with direct flights to Houston, DFW, OKC and Vegas (Amarillo) or you're only a short drive to one (Pueblo to Colorado Springs).   Obviously places like Raton, Trinidad and Limon are problematic with regard to air travel  but if my employer told me I could move go Trinidad I might consider it one day.  

    I always find it funny that places in Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama aren't usually in the mix.   I know Birmingham has gotten some love lately but I guess corporate America still just can't wrap its head around employees showing up to work sporting Confederate flag t-shirts and having to allow for spit cups on their desks.

    Is there anyone who has won more wars than they have fought?   I mean, besides the fightin' Texas A&M Aggies.

    I swear there was a post on TexAgs that got reposted at hornfans.com, where some Aggie said "they're on the 9 yard line and Young has 191 yards rushing, I don't like the looks of this"

    When we got the ball back after the 4th down stop, I remember thinking "Well, here we go....  The supposedly greatest football team EVAR is going to get beat by the best football team ever."
