  1. I believe I heard in Vegas' last 3 games, if you take away the 2 empty net goals they scored, they have exactly ONE GOAL against an opposing net minder. At what point does that start to get into their heads. And as we saw in the last series, the Stars' net minder is not exactly standing on this head.
  2. Let's see... what pron starlet photo shall I submit? Kind of into the milf thing so... Julia Ann? The classic, vintage look of Helen Duval? Vittoria Risi? Decisions, decisions.
  3. So, a young attorney and an old attorney are sitting in a bar. A beautiful blonde walks in, sensuously sits down at the bar and orders a martini. The young attorney says, "Man, I would like to fuck her." The old attorney says, "Out of what?"
  4. So, any idea how long the Pink Faders are going to boycott practice? Any chance we can substitute the Whiny Children of the Corn for Tech for one year?
  5. I am sensing that the mouthpieces for UCLA are already working on the inevitable, "Motion to Determine Non-Dischargeability of Debt" when UA declares bk.
  6. So, why couldn't a person apply for a Tier 1 Special Event Permit to take place in one of the parking lots? Allege you are protesting uh... hmmm... ah yes, you are protesting aggy's continued embarrassment to the State of Texas and that their jizz jars are responsible for the spread of Covid amongst the sheep population. The event date just happens to coincide with a home game that day. So, it's not tailgating. You are just providing a public service by offering up ribs and brisket to your fellow protestors.
  7. The old ... A Body to Die For ... A Face to Protect It.
  8. One death is a tragedy, a million deaths a statistic. (approximate quote from Joe Stalin)
  9. I'm a Hadley v. Baxendale guy myself.
  10. Well hell, I don't know whether I should be uphauled or impressed with the depth of depravity in that post.
  11. Was really happy with the day. We only took 12 people. Cinemark was only serving popcorn, hot dogs and cokes are reduced rates. (snuck in some Dripping Springs vodka). You choose between about 15 films. Spoke to the manager of that Cinemark. He was asking for recommendations on future films. (I don't think Blazing Saddles is going to make it.) Would do again.
  12. So, I broke down and took up Cinemark on their "Private Party" screenings. You rent a theater for $100. Can invite up to 20 friends. We are seeing Jurassic Park this Sunday at 5:15. Will be sneaking in some Woodford Reserve. Will let you know how it goes.
  13. America ... Fuck yeah! Bring A J Foyt back. Hell, he's only 85 years old. When he loses, he can punch one of the whippersnappers in Victory Path. (small track, small Lane)
  14. And this really fucks with an old saying I used with my kids in their younger years. They would whine about something not being "fair." My response: "This is Texas. And the only fair is the State Fair. And, the State Fair takes place in October and it ain't October." Now.. .well crap. Gotta wait until 2021. Thanks a lot Obama.
  15. You can be my friend any day and twice on Sundays.
  16. Living on an island would drive me batty. I'm a very young 62 years old. Have appeared in federal courts throughout the US. Fought many battles in the mental health field. Had a daughter who died. Lived in Dallas most of my life. Don't need so much of what I thought was important. Snorkeling. Occasionally tending bar in an ex-pat bar. Writing. Fishing. Running on the beach. My idea of heaven on earth
  17. I am an "old," (Graduated UT in 1981), so I and the SO are seriously looking at the island of Roatan in 3 years. Can get dual citizenship pretty easily. Get a pretty nice shack right on the beach. Cost of living not bad. What's not to like?
  18. Ok, what the hell with Ferrari? I read previously that before Covid, they had some issues and did not expect to compete until the latter half of the season. But ... ? Is Vettel just mailing it in? Or do their cars just suck so much this year?
  19. Oh, I know the rules. For your viewing pleasure, Jace Fletcher Christensen:
  20. The pretty hot niece of the Fletcher family opened a brick and mortar in Dallas. It's not bad. https://www.corndogwithnoname.com/
  21. Imma so confused. So, all minstrel shows are bad now? So, is this bad or good?
  22. Maybe because in part, if you have a pulse and have 3 opportunities to spell CAT after being spotted the C and the A, you are admitted at those "fine institutions of greater learning." UT is one of the most liberal, public universities in the US. We currently have statues of MLK, Jr., Barbara Jordan, Cesar Chavez. We previously removed statues of Robert E. Lee, Albert Sidney Johnston, John Reagan, James Stephen Hogg and moved them Briscoe Center for American History. Good Lord, we aren't aggy which has a bunch of old, former yell leaders doing their chants during BLM protests. Like all institutions of higher learning, we must remain open to intelligent viewpoints. If players attending the University of Texas wish to not participate in athletics until certain demands are met, that is their right. That is an adult decision. However, with adult decisions come adult consequences. A decision like that at 21 years old has the potential to impact them for decades and could jeopardize a far greater platform in the future. Now, I do not believe we should yank their scholarships. If they wish not to play, they can attend class and use the time they would otherwise spend in practice or at games to hone their views on life and the world. If they choose not to continue their athletic careers, we can still enhance their lives through academic opportunities.
