  1. i'm kind of enjoying this show. anybody else? there are parts that are cringe-inducing, and she's a strange heroine - times you root for her, and times you don't, but all in all it's got enough interesting storylines to keep me hooked.
  2. biga bliss silo little rhein gwendolyn cured southerleigh mixtli
  3. this show peaked out and nosedived faster than the 2019 longhorn baseball team. what a shitty season this was. 4.3 all around.
  4. i dont like the way they do this now. 5 players left and it's the last episode of the season? Makes no sense. Plus, presumably at least one person is coming back from extinction, so that makes 6 players still vying for the win. are there 11 players on extinction island? there should be. if so, that technically makes 16 players still vying for the win. it's ridiculous to make this finale week. also, wasn't last week the deadline to play an idol? did lauren have to eat hers?
  5. i get it dude, you have built walls around your reality and convinced yourself trump has made america great again, better than it was two years ago. i disagree, and we will have to let the voters decide. if i had to wager now i'd say trump has a 45% chance of being re-elected, and that's 40 points higher than it should be, but there are loyalists like you that refuse to see the trampling on democracy, the desecration of the constitution, the abuse of power, the lying and dishonesty, the hoodwinking of society, and so on and so on. but i get it, you're going to stand by your man, like lindsey and mcconnell and mccarthy, scalise, jordan, and all the other loyalists.
  6. i'm not sure what to make of this show anymore. kind of wish it was in its last season like veep and got. it feels like the writers are mailing it in. both dollar bill and wags are caricatures of their former selves. can't really figure out what chuck's motivation or long game is any more. a common theme in this show is alliances and loyalties and how fickle they are. chuck and connerty partners, now not so much. axe and taylor partners, now not so much. chuck and wendy? chuck and axe? wendy and axe? wendy and taylor? maybe the moral is that everyone is selfish and out for themselves and will step on anyone to get where they want to go. axe and jock are the true villains in the show so my dream scenario for how this all concludes is for everyone to join sides - wendy, chuck, taylor, connerty, kate, etc to take those two down.
  7. do not for one second think that we will just sit around and watch you drive others to the voting booths, because we don't tolerate that around here.
  8. sure, a lot of this is just opinion and everyone believing what you want to believe. however, you can look at the facts and see that most college educated people voted democrat, and most uneducated, redneck, trailer trash people voted republican. there was some opinion mixed in with the facts in that last sentence.
  9. i wouldnt say that but smarter than the deplorables that make up the trump base. have you looked behind him at one of his pep rallies lately? i think he picks up day laborers and pays them to stand behind him.
  10. no education also almost guarantees people locked in a cycle of voting for trump.
  11. damn, still have not seen it in austin.
  12. i have never wanted to go to portugal before but you're doing a good job of selling it penelope. where will you go next?
  13. saw several wednesday night in round rock - 20-30 maybe. have not seen any in years so was an uplifting sight.
  14. how's the Kentucky owl? I scored a bottle a couple of weeks ago but haven't popped it open yet.
  15. actually they put out an al young edition last year. they were sampling it at the whiskey social.
  16. I didn't say you can find it. I just used it as an example of normal markup. even in this fad industry, 2 years extra aging doesn't warrant a 400% markup.
  17. I don't get it. boone county 12 is $55. why are you paying $175 for boone county 14? 2 yrs can make a difference but nowhere near that dollar amount. pappy 10 retails for $50, pappy 15 for $80. that's 5 years more aging of a way better bourbon.
  18. scott bryant is a good addition. i'll add dressendorfer.
  19. its going to essentially be a two way race - biden vs trump. battle of the olds, both nearing 80. there could be an extremist leftist candidate, and an extremist rightwing candidate but they will both be inconsequential.
  20. not with this president in office unfortunately
  21. is that the master distiller series? this is the second edition (I missed the first) - jess motlow. he was the master distiller there from 1911-41. supposedly they're using his recipe. I wish they told you more about it. there's pretty vague info on the box and bottle labels. one thing that jumps out is its a totally different color than the standard jack, lighter actually. may mean less time in the charcoal stacks, not sure.
  22. bought 5 bottles today - jack daniels master distiller, jack daniels single barrel select (store pick), makers mark private select (store pick), amador, and Kentucky owl confiscated. guess which one i'm going to open tonight and pound down like a sailor? that's right, the $36 amador. it's not just for breakfast anymore.
  23. you'll have a good time. I enjoyed mine and would go again, but it has it downsides. the best thing imo about a cruise is the food. I don't know what cruise line you're using, but we went on royal Caribbean and the food was outstanding. soups, desserts, salads, entrees, pasta all fantastic. if you don't gain 10 lbs you didn't do it right. I smuggled in a bottle of bourbon in my suitcase but since then I've heard they actually xray your bags to prevent people from doing that. they make a shitload of money off alcohol sales so its strictly forbidden for you to do that, but i'd try it anyway.
  24. sounds like we are all in agreement that Kelly made way too much of a spectacle of herself. she managed to make tribal all about her, and she's basically not even playing any more. on extinction island she's all sad and mopey but back in the game she shines like a celebrity. I hope she's not the one that makes it back in. and rheem? sonofabitch is there a more negative worthless player in the history of the game? why is she even still hanging on? all the others there are worthy of getting back in. back to the real game, if the girls somehow manage to vote on ron and devens, then they'd be left with aurora, victoria, julie, and lauren. that would be super interesting. every season there's been a star, with two cling ons going to final. very little suspense. clearcut who has played the hardest. of those 4? they've all been cling ons. none of them have stood out or been a leader, so it would be cool to see how that would shake out.
