  1. It doesn’t say he told them 5 times. It says they were taking forever - which I read as the task is being completed. Also - directions were given, task was being done - why does wife need to be involved at all?
  2. I have not run across that. Most steaks are an inch think at most. I have 3 strips in for tonight. Set at 128 for two hours.
  3. You got mad that your 8 year olds were doing what you asked them to do, but not at the rate you wanted it done? Did you tell them you wanted it done in 2 minutes? This one might be on you.
  4. Merc combined the silver and black. Looks like a good car. Hope it’s fast.
  5. Depends on the kid. My son (7th grade) plays rec league soccer and I coach. It’s a hobby for him. If he’s legit tired, I’ll let him stay home. Why risk injury or turn the kid against the game over a practice here or there. I also have kids that miss one practice every week due to another sport or school activity. It happens.

    LBGTQ

    Look closer at the commercial - every oppressor is the one doing the Jesus like behavior. It was terrible from the get go.
  7. He had Ghetto Fab before. Same guy. Had to quit riding and bought a Vette. [emoji16]
  8. But god…. Or something.
  9. Being part of a wakeboard group was a saving grace when it came to people knowing inboards. Only met a few over the years (when I rode a lot) that had no clue what they were doing. We watched a guy take his brand new XStar (when the pickle forks first came around) out to hit the Trinity. He didn’t ask anyone how to get to the river. Hauled ass away from the ramp and parked his boat on a massive underwater tree.
  10. That’s terrible. When I helped start the wakeboarding group in Houston back in 2001 - we were on mostly used Ski boats with sacks and a tower. The nicest boat was a 2004 (I think) SANTE that my buddy got a deal on. Most were $30k Malibu’s or Master Crafts. I couldn’t imagine paying that for a boat. It would make being on the river more fun, as I would be terrified of hitting a tree and sinking it.
  11. I’ve got the burbs special: Tundra and a M340i. It would be an interesting combo.
  12. Can I use the wife’s car and include her $$$? [emoji16]
  13. Out here on the west side of Houston - there is a n area of 99 right North of 90 that you can see far enough for cops and cars. It’s good up to 120 or so and then the road is a little wavy. [emoji15] Anyone rent an exotic for a weekend? I have absolutely no reason to buy one and don’t want to deal with the upkeep. I would, however, like to drive a Ferrari for a weekend.
  14. I think they have this one and one more that has finished up. I may have misunderstood though. We will have a third Clarkson’s Farm.
  15. I think Albon deserves a shot at Merc.
  16. Merc just announced on their Instagram. Hamilton will trigger his release option. I’m guessing he’s not impressed with this years bus.
  17. My wife co-owns a business and we use my insurance. It would cost us more to go through her business. Insanity.
  18. Didn’t Lewis drive for the Team Principal at Ferrari when they were at McLaren? That plus all the money in Italy - makes it pretty easy to leave.
  19. Same. I don’t believe it.
  20. Why do you get to decide what is and is not a national emergency? Three soldiers were killed on American soil by a foreign entity. That needs to be dealt with swiftly before it becomes an all out war. I’d say avoiding another all out war IS an emergency.
  21. I won’t believe it until Hamilton announces it.
  22. To strike back, he doesn’t need it. Our base was attacked. It (War Powers Resolution) provides that the president can send the U.S. Armed Forces into action abroad only by declaration of war by Congress, "statutory authorization", or in case of "a national emergency created by attack upon the United States, its territories or possessions, or its armed forces".
  23. We visited the winery and had them ship us a case. It’s a great tour and tasting spot outside of Sanoma. The art work on the grounds is awesome.
  24. Donum, IMO.
