2020 Presidential Election -- Biden v Trump: Sleepy Joe vs Dopey Don [Results begin on page 409]
i get you, but all along its just been us dems bitching. sounds like spilled milk/sore losers ring to it. what we've always needed is the republicans to see what we're seeing - the destruction of the constitution, the concentration of executive power, the lies, etc, but they've always stayed loyal to him. we need more republicans to speak out against him, to take a stand for america, and say that trump has made it worse.

Matthew Rhys as Perry Mason HBO
i'm picking up too much of a comedy vibe to compare it to true detective. doesn't have the suspense or creepiness that show has. was the restaurant really called ptomaine tommy's? was disappointed he got steamrolled so badly by the movie exec. seems like a seasoned detective would have had a better plan than that. if he wants to be our hero and protagonist he's going to have to show more street smarts than that.

Oysters and their bivalve brethren - the finominal filterers
had it a bunch of different ways, made it myself even, and just flat prefer a homemade cocktail sauce - ketchup, tabasco, lemon, horseradish, maybe a little black pepper, and there you go.

I doubt deckhand's are better than salt trader. interesting you have both so close to each other down south. I have the same situation up north. salt trader is just a couple of exits up i35 from deckhand. dollar oysters sound pretty good. didn't know they were doing that. it was either drink.well or foreign and domestic that had an oyster happy hour also.

Felix's was always more fine dining to me. I remember going to new Orleans in the mid 80's and there were nickel oysters during happy hour at some bars on bourbon street. nickel oysters.

the farmed oysters are sterile? I wasn't aware of that. Chesapeake bay are probably the classic, consistently best oyster ever. that was back 10 yrs or so ago. Apalachicola was always better to me though - bigger, plumper. sadly, those aren't around in great number anymore either.

that's not just a myth. not only is there a higher chance of vibrio in the water in the warmer months, but the oysters go into a different phase of their breeding then. their hormones/chemistry changes and they take on a different taste.

Grand Canyon South Rim Job: Or How I Drove 11 Hours to Visit a Hole
do you camp? that would be your best bet, to camp in the park. make a fire, sleep in a tent, your boy will never forget it. but if you wanna wuss out, flagstaff or Williams might be your best bet for hotels. probably no chance at a lodge.

Texas Re-Opening Announced
did our governor just say yesterday that "there is no reason to leave your house"? there is no reason except the governor made us all go back to work again. waittresses, lifeguards, bus drivers, football coaches, and on and on all opened back up based on the governors timeline. it is disingenuous and slimy for him to take no responsibility. he's taken a page from the teflon don, and admitting no wrong.

High Town on Starz
the acting has been pretty decent for some low budget actors. I hope this is a springboard for all of their careers. the show reminds me of the anti-Hollywood. no glamor or glitz. these are some white trash, working class southie types.
