  1. Probably a day club or a nice beach since there’s not much in the way of beach stuff on the other stops. We could either do a day club with chairs and umbrellas or could grab a taxi and head off to a beach worth visiting.
  2. Stopping in Mykonos for one day on a Greek isles cruise. Have plans everywhere else but can’t decide what to do with one day on Mykonos. Any recommendations?
  3. Driving the H3 through the mountains has to be one of the most beautiful and scenic drives in the world.
  4. Hanauma Bay has become really expensive recently. You’re better off snorkeling at Shark’s Cove when you’re at the north shore. I want to say it’s like $24 per person plus you have to pay for parking. Get hot and sweaty doing the pill box hike then hit Lanikai beach afterwards. Stop at Bob’s pizzeria just before you get to Kailua Beach park on the way to Lanikai to get a reasonably cheap huge slice of pizza. Island snow is next door so you can get a shaved ice after lunch. Waikiki good for people watching and restaurants. It’s really crowded but I’d rather stay there than the Ko Olina area where all the expensive hotels are located. Get the “Oahu Revealed” guide book and pick out a waterfall hike or two. There’s some great ones.
  5. Rarely literally laugh out loud when watching tv by myself but this one (the whole episode) does it for me.
  6. Texas didn’t just win, they whipped that ass and embarrassed those hayseeds.
  7. My feelings as well. I think the movie was an hour too long but still enjoyed. Thought it was interesting that the whole movie drug on then felt like they rushed through the ending with the radio show wrapping things up.
  8. Thought it was dumb to get that foul to light their fuse but absolutely loved it when he started throwing his hands up to get the crowd riled up. Besides the ejection, we netted 2 points in that whole debacle.
  9. Ha ha- techtards camped out to get into this one and now they’re leaving early.
  10. The Big12 can’t try and pull some fuckery like trying to suspend Brock for another game for getting ejected can they?
  11. Just not gonna call a moving screen at all?
  12. Such an intense opening scene. Literally brought the franchise back from the edge of death.
  13. There’s a few good things on there but most of the stuff I’d like to watch you’d have to pay extra for the showtime package. Already have too many streaming services. I said no thanks when my subscription expired in January
  14. Are we gonna pretend like Bosom Buddies never happened?
  15. I don’t like ANYBODY enough to loan them thousands of dollars to get their family heirlooms out of estate sales. I’d be curious to see how many people he has to approach with these stories before he gets a bite.
  16. The tourist was on hbo max a couple of years ago.
  17. Completely agree with the essay being a huge component. My daughter had great grades, great ACT score and good SAT score… and so did many of her cohort that didn’t get in. Her essay set her apart in my opinion. She originally wrote a very serious essay that was extremely dry and uninteresting. Her college counselors, college consultant and I helped her revise it numerous times and it was still just uninteresting and nothing special. One night after about the 10th revision, she just said, “I hate this essay” and scraped it. She and her sister were sitting on the couch brainstorming ideas and she jokingly said “I’m gonna write my essay about the Rock”. She went in her room and wrote a hysterical essay about the Rock and his influence on her. She sent it to her counselor and consultant who loved it. Only had 1 revision and sent it in. The point is: don’t write what you think they want to hear. Write about what you love.
  18. Need to hold serve at home
  19. You might be surprised about what grants and financial aid your daughter may be eligible for. I would consider us upper class and my daughter got financial aid or grants at almost every school she applied to (with the exception of Santa Clara and Villanova I believe). That being said, you can’t beat the value of a state school (Texas tuition, room and board is about equivalent to Dallas private high schools).
  20. My tier of Hulu does this too. I preferentially look for stuff on other services because it’s such a nuisance
  21. If this relatively unknown dude can sell himself to Sark and CDC then he should be able to sell himself to recruits and their parents…. Kinda like how Franklin wants his assistants to have hot girlfriends because they have confidence and can sell themselves well.
  22. Did he have accomplices or making that shit up? I can see why the cops were skeptical. The story is crazy, the 911 call had no urgency to it. The security footage of the girl walking home was odd, looked like she was walking into her house after a trip to the grocery store, not scared for her life. That being said, cops were assholes for going public and shitting all over then on national TV. Looks like they got caught up in Gone Girl, not the victims.
  23. The Tolkien guy blew 2 point blank shots
  24. Is this Polynesian bowl live? Says Simmons and Gibson are in the roster but haven’t see them play. Are they playing even though they’re early enrollees? Saw Baker in the game earlier. OU guy Stone playing well.
