  1. One of the best scenes from one of the best movies in the last decade.
  2. I see ads for this shit all the time at the drugstore. Maybe they are giving him large doses of this so we can all say, "look at the big brain on Biden".
  3. I was just listening in my car to a MSNBC reporter talking about the debate and I find it interesting that they made a comment about how Trump's job is easy because he can just say how horrible things are right now in America and that if you just reelect him, he can fix it to how great things were when he was president. My issue is, "are things that horrible now?". I mean I get there is the whole Ukraine and Gaza stuff (I find it hard to blame America for that), and the prices of food items are up but who here is living a hellish life right now. People say these things on the airwaves about how horrible life is and I really wonder what or where they are living and why it's so horrible. Many of us live in Texas where the migrant hordes and caravans are allegedly over running us and murdering/raping everyone, yet I haven't noticed any difference here in Texas for the last 30 years really and I have lived in Austin, Houston and Dallas. Trump and the right keep saying crime is up, but the stats show it is actually down. Apparently, the economy sucks yet the stock market is at an all-time high, unemployment is crazy low, wages are up, etc... Listen I know it's not perfect out there, but it isn't nearly as bad as one side is saying it is and it seems like people should be calling that out instead of agreeing with it or not saying anything, so others start to believe it. You see all these polls of people saying the country is doing terrible economically yet almost every person who gets polled will also say they are doing fine if not great. It's fucking maddening
  4. Maybe we need to hire a lip reader?
  5. I think you can be convicted of attempted murder for this post.
  6. I still think it’s the arrow for me. I switched from a spider to the LAB. I don’t have issues with lagging the ball but the LAB keeps you on the line you intended which I struggled with when I used the spider. Just take it straight back and straight forward and the ball rolls where you aimed it. I still misread greens but that is on me.
  7. I used to be a horrific putter, like I have rolled over 50 putts in a round and that all changed when I got the LAB putter below a few years ago. It’s expensive but worth every penny to me. https://labgolf.com/products/mezz-1-max-custom
  8. One of those bears growled really loud when my son was hitting a shot from the fairway and he shanked it. We let him have a do over as we figured that should be allowed.
  9. Just played the Fairmont Course in Whistler the other day. Very pretty course and spectacular views. Plus bears wandering around the fairways and tee boxes added to the excitement!
  10. This is why the Dems should be running scary ads on TV right now that flat out say, “Donald Trump was caught selling our nuclear secrets to other countries, he also set up a scheme to override the election that he knows he lost, etc…”. Why be nice at this point. Blast shit like that all over the airwaves just like Fox News does. The only difference is the stuff about Trump is the truth opposed to the right wing propaganda. It may not work on everyone but I guarantee if you put ads out saying he sold our nuclear secrets and who knows what else just to get rich off of the American people and show some pictures of bad guys from other countries and then Trump in prison it will resonate with a lot of undecideds. Scare them like the right does. Shit, tell the world he is a pedophile. Spreading lies seems to work for Fox News.
  11. It was these guys, right?
  12. I’m still trying to understand this argument. “Your honor, the prosecutor is a vegetarian and since I love steak they can’t possibly be allowed to be on this case where I murdered someone and I told a room full of people I was going to kill this person, then was caught with the murder weapon and the entire act of me killing the person is on video”.
  13. MIT elitist, huh? You can't tell us common folk the best way we should die. Shark attack it is! CSB- I actually am terrified of sharks and years ago almost drowned in St. Johns while snorkeling when I saw a shark (in hindsight it was a baby shark about a foot long) that was at the bottom of ocean about 30 feet below me. I did what you should do when you see a shark and started splashing hysterically and swimming towards the shore as fast as I could. When I got close to the shore, I looked in the water and a guppy swam right next to my mask which scared the shit out of me, and I swallowed sea water which is the almost drowning part. Swam to the beach, coughing and hacking from the water and the wife who was sitting on the beach gave me the "you are an idiot look".
  14. Let's not confuse facts with the narrative the media wants to tell. Trump is winning bigly and Joe Biden is going to lose because nobody wants to vote for him (young people, black people, Muslims, etc...).
  15. I get free speech but since you are a lawyer, what are the laws against saying somebody is part of a crime family without proof? I mean if I start using twitter or whatever and saying Brad Pitt is running a crime family and make up whatever I want about Bradd Pitt wouldn't he just sue the shit out of me? I think Biden should maybe start doing that to people like Charlie Kirk that traffic in straight lies. Maybe even Fox News. Make them prove their talking points from TV in court. The other choice is for Biden to send his secret police to arrest people like this and hang them in front of the white house to teach others not to do this. I know that is not what America is about, but I get the feeling the other side is taking us there anyways so might as well be first to it.
  16. So, what are the thoughts on if he actually gets jail time or if it is jail time like 3-4 months in a minimum-security prison. No matter what he gets I guarnfuckingtee you all that Fox News will have stories about how his sentence is much lighter than it should have been because Biden made the DOJ give his son an easier sentence even though the gun charges should have never been brought in the first place. The tax stuff should have been pursued but the gun charge/lying on a federal form was bullshit.
  17. I think I might take Scottie. Similar to when Tiger was in his prime. Getting hard to bet against the guy.
  18. I was told the first pic is a wolf and the second is a coyote based on the snout of the first one being wider and the ears curved and not pointed but no idea if that is true.
  19. Played Banff Springs course today. Shot a 88 so not horrible. Scenery is amazing. Plus the wildlife on the course like elk and coyote/wolf (not sure what it was).
  20. I know we shouldn’t pay attention to polls but the poll below is why America has failed. We are a nation of idiots based on how people view Trump. https://currently.att.yahoo.com/news/following-trumps-guilty-verdict-first-211234702.html?.tsrc=daily_mail&uh_test=1_11
  21. I'm about to infomercial you guys but these two items below are really working for me right now. Golf Forever swing trainer program and classes plus this gimmicky 56-degree wedge which has taken all chunks and bladed wedge shots out of my game for the last couple of weeks. Shot an 86 on my home course but it was way tougher than usual because I am on a lake in Dallas and the course was so flooded many of the fairways are now part of the lake. Also doubled the last two holes with some shitty putting on my part or could have scored better. Swing Trainer – GOLFFOREVER ONE Wedge - Performance Golf
  22. I have been arguing this for years. I get free speech but it's fucking criminal what they have done to this country and the news business in general. If Walter Cronkite was alive to today, he would punch all of these "news people" in the fucking mouth for embarrassing what a news reporter and anchorman are supposed to be.
