  1. I’m surprised that 114 years or whatever we’ve been flying that a 2-4 seat small plane crash is still almost state wide news when there are 68,000 car accidents a year in Houston alone.
  2. Kinda simple, but maybe it’ll help with an overview. The Football 101 series on YouTube is decent and will kinda help you understand what’s happening and why. Good luck!!
  3. Is there a funnier segment of an American movie than Ben Stiller and the zipper incident in There’s Something About Mary?
  4. Season two is much improved and IMO that’s saying something! One peeve is the staging. Way too many of the buildings, especially the “rich folks” houses are just way too modern for the 70’s. I guess it’s my building background, but high end windows, doors and finishes from today in houses that are supposed to be in the early 70’s. That stuff wasn’t even close to being on the horizon back then. The 70’s were all about aluminum single pane, paneling, and shag carpeting. Not high end Southwest design! Also not enough rayon or polyester…It really was a strange time in America.
  5. Yep. It’s pretty much any horse track /casino caper only with a football game. Because of Jim Brown I’m guessing. It’s got some standard 60’s movie issues, but it’s just so great seeing all those guys working together.
  6. If namaste is used as a regular part of your vocabulary I’m probably not going to ask you to sit at our lunch table.
  7. Women who are true man haters and constantly cry about patriarchy and how men suck, but then do absolutely everything they can to look, dress and act like a man.
  8. The Split (1968). I’d never even heard of this one. Only rated one and a half stars but it was really a pretty good heist movie for the 60’s with an outstanding cast! Ernest Borgnine, Jim Brown, Donald Sutherland, Jack Klugman, Gene Hackman, Warren Oates, James Whitmore and a ton of others. Can’t believe I’ve missed this one over the years.
  9. Epiphany time at 3:45 this morning. Woke up out of a dead sleep to the thought that Ma’am is short for Madam. Don’t know why, truly a random thought but I’ve been saying it for 62 years and just figured that out.
  10. There will be.
  11. How long after a fence is put up is it considered a permanent encroachment and not have to be removed? Not sure I asked that right but hopefully you’ll get my drift. We have a property that has a 20 ft undeveloped alleyway between ours and a neighbor’s. He put up a fence that took in about 15 feet of it. Now the county’s going to formally abandon the alleyway and the 20 ft will be split between us and his fence will then be 5 feet on our property. It’s a rental property so I’m not there much, but the fence has been put up pretty recently. Do I have any options to make him move it or am I SOL?
  12. How long are those donuts going to be warm sandwiching frozen ice cream, maybe one bite? Marketing adjective bullshit!!!
  13. Throw some chicken in the back yard, looks like it’ll be done in about 3 hours.
  14. IF this is a true story the the guy’s definitely the AH, but the waitress chasing him down in the parking lot puts her on the spectrum. Why is my iced tea empty? Oh yeah, our waitress is in the parking lot yelling at that guy.
  15. Joe spends way too much time talking shit about this movie. He must not have liked the real Rudy back when. I wish they’d recut Rudy with some new scenes with a preppy douche freshman QB named Joe that gives Rudy a hard time in an 80’s James Spader popped collar character kind of way.
  16. I’ve had some stuff on there for a year that I swear I’m going to get around to, but for some reason I like to keep the DVR memory at around 35% so I’m deleting stuff almost daily. The Jesus Rolls is a movie by John Turturro based on his Jesus character from The Big Lebowski.
  17. Talk about some high tides!
  18. I’ve had The Jesus Rolls on my DVR forever and for some reason just can’t get around to hitting play. Delete or watch?
  19. Gat dang son, you play them one more time for the foreseeable future and you’re getting that permanently inked on your skin?
  20. I’ve been yelled at for expressing this exact thought.
  21. You can special order at Taco Bell?
  22. Probably not yours.
  23. I basically eat like I live in Mexico, but the tostada confuses me. How are you supposed to eat it? Pick it up like a big flat messy taco that’s going to break on the first bite? Chop it up and try and balance the tortilla pieces and toppings on your fork? I usually just eat the toppings and then pick up the soggy tortilla and eat it. And secrets I’m missing out on?
  24. Why is lightning a mature subject?
