jack allens is like a z tejas. decent but never been raved about, so hard to call it overrated. its rated about right. kind of an upscale bennigans or chilis. try his seafood place across the street. it's not overrated, imo.

they showed extinction island already. he wasn't there either.

I feel like I must have missed an episode. where in the fuck is david?

that is his signature tone, but he hasn't always had it. in the early days he was more country/folky, and he played a gretsch then, right? what's the first album that this tone came out on? rust never sleeps maybe? I have live weld and it seems like pretty much every song is coming through this distortion.

that's exactly the situation dany is in with jon.

I don't believe there is a "without sabotage" situation when axe has his mind on sabotage.

what the hell happened to wendy? is she really going after taylor, or helping axe go after taylor? she's stooping to the low blow, slimeball tactics of axe. I always thought she had more morals and ethics.

I never thought about that dude killing barry, or even putting him in his sights. I do think its hilarious that pretty much everyone in the class has quit even trying, and they just stand around and laugh and clap the dude on the back for how great a shooter he is. pretty much the exact same thing barry's soldier buddies did.

i agree with all that. i've probably spent a week on vacation in 7 cities total - paris, halifax, santa fe, new orleans, cozumel, dc, winnipeg. paris was the only one where i felt like i could stay longer.

a week wasn't long enough in paris.

I thought the way they integrated the title sequence in the opening scene was extremely creative. i'm kind of hoping you're wrong about barry and cousineau, and hope they can and do change. the whole show is about barry changing, and so far he hasn't killed anyone yet, and is training his successor (who appears to be coming along nicely). cousineau seems to have just had the realization that he's a selfish asshole after Janice got killed. what would be nice plotline to me is if barry and cousineau helped each other be the new people they both want to be. barry could help him with his son, and cousineau could help him act out the secret killer he really is.

a week is too long to spend in any American city. I would suggest new Orleans (aquarium, wwii museum, you could day trip to some plantations down old river road out towards baton rouge, take in some history, not to mention the best food in the usa). second choice would be key west. not to stay in key west but to hub out of there for the week and visit all the keys (snorkel, scuba dive, lay on the beach, etc.)

they definitely wrote themselves out of that corners. fuchs is off the hook, barry stays out of jail has barry killed anyone this season?

i'm taking the over on the 4 main characters that die bet. I think we could lose as many as half, seeing as how half of the final season is over next week. Brienne for sure, Theon is my second highest confidence bet. lots of people don't contribute much so wouldn't be much of a loss - davos, greyworm, jorah. kind of think jorah might stick around seeing as how he has sam's sword but not sure. Jamie's story is pretty much over, so he might be toast. Tormund could go since Jamie and Brienne are going. podrick. here's who I think makes it to episode 4: arya, sansa, dany, jon, sam, both dragons, Tyrion, varys, bran, gendry. the hound has a 50:50 shot. bronn makes it to winterfell right before the battle and fights like a boss, and lives. nymeria also somehow makes and appearance and fights valiantly and wins. Melisandre is a mystery to me. they could use some divine intervention right about now, but she has said she and varys will die at kings landing. the lord of light could help but I don't think she shows up next week. I had a theory that benjen was the NK, but then I realized the NK has been wreaking havoc since before benjen died, so scratch that theory.

I didn't know John Daly was working at Buffalo Trace now.

yes, closed for good.

don't remember a bar, but wasn't looking for one at the time anyway. bbq and bars reminds me of freedmen's. that was the best if you wanted good quality of both.

stiles switch would be my choice of those without a line. maybe terry blacks. actually, coopers didn't have a line yesterday, and i'm telling you it was exceptional

franklin may have been unseated years ago. valentina's might be the best brisket in town. that would be my bet to win this mythical competition. all i'm saying is la is doing good shit over there.

I don't blame you. I bought one bottle and have probably had two pours of it. it's really good for the money. you should at least try it.

it means its good. one of the best in the city. there should be a competition for best brisket. i'm not sure franklin would win it.

now i'm picturing you with the coke bottle glasses of your avatar. that shit is everywhere. you're in Houston?

you're 5 for 6. you can keep your evan williams. not a fan. i'd put the old forester rye in it's place.

went to leeann's during sxsw. waited in line over 2 hours but damn it was impressive. haven't been since she opened the brick and mortar. last time I was at her trailer I don't remember the meat being all that great, but the side were extremely good. this time the side were sub par but all the meats were fantastic. brisket in the tops of the city, ribs also excellent. sausage, meh. today I was downtown so stopped in coopers for the first time they opened. had heard bad things but it was outstanding. got the sirloin, prime rib, cabrito, and brisket. not a bad bite anywhere. top notch. one thing I can say is that the pitmaster is as rude and put out here as the ones in llano, mason, and junction. they must train them the same. and another thing, I should have learned my lesson from being a veteran of the llano location, that sauce they dip the meat in is way too salty. opt out when they offer that to you. one other thing: free beans. you got to give it to coopers's for that business plan. love it.

whats the big deal about getting the permits anyway? so maybe he skipped ahead a few places in line. is that a crime? what I would like to see is chuck and connery join ranks again to take out axe, just like old times. let's get the band back together again.
