  1. I saw The Cult recently on the Bush, STP Cult tour. I liked them a good bit when I was younger, but hadn't thought much about them in years. Frankly found them an odd inclusion in that line up of bands. That said, I felt like they were the highlight of the show I attended, and I am a huge fan of Bush and STP. Cult was fresh and new again. They sounded absolutely fantastic. She Sells Sanctuary was off the charts good. They have been in a regular rotation for me since that mid August show.
  2. I'd say the casting of Mitch Rapp and Irene in American Assassin were absolutely terrible. I did enjoy the movie, but I couldn't remotely picture either of those actors as the people they were playing from the books. KEaton as Hurley was actually a fantastic casting in the same movie.
  3. Interesting tweet by Zellner over the weekend: The Avery jurors knew bones in burnpit planted bc they ACQUITTED SA of that charge. Imagine if SA had blood, DNA, ballistics, trace, fire forensics, pathology experts we have—Not Guilty on everything.
  4. Go on a crocodile rescue with Vince and his team lots awesome.
  5. agree. I was hoping with him going back east BUnchy, Terry, his ugly daughter, and ninny boy son would be completely out of the picture. I am hoping we have seen the last abby flashback as well. THe actress who plays her isn't listed in the cast credits for this season. Maybe it will get going, and back to ray being a fixer. That is what the show does best.
  6. took me 3 days to get through episode one of this season. not off to a good start. I will give it two more episodes, and if it doesn't pick up substantially I'm out.
  7. does such a thing even exist?
  8. you mean people eventually figure out that socialism and no borders is a bad idea? No way. Guess they're just greedy racists like the rest of us.
  9. good luck getting any dinner reservations at this point.
  10. Definitely a suitable competitor. Well done. They do not have this at my HEB, but they usually have it at Whole Foods and CM.
  11. This makes me want to go skiing, and then I realize once I get there it will be terrible and I don't want to go. I miss it terribly, but when I go I can't really do all the fun, stupid shit I used to do when I was much younger and much less surgically repaired. I mostly have to keep to the groomers these days, and that bores the shit out of me while still making my knees and back hurt. May have to suck it up and do it anyway. I didn't go last season.
  12. Anyone here play the Ben Hogan ptx irons? I badly need some new clubs. I loved my old hogan apex 50 blades, but I’m way too old and shitty to hit those anymore. That said, I can’t hit those damn offset “game improvement” irons worth a shit. I snap hook the fuck outta them. No clubs I’ve ever hit compare to the forged Hogan’s. Even the old apex plus cavity backs from way back in the day were incredible. Any reviews on this new version? Pretty interested in getting back into the game a bit.
  13. People eat store bought salsa that is not Julio's? I thought that was settled science. Who knew.
  14. this shit isn't "made" by HEB, but when HEB is open you can get Cowgirl Bacon, Cheddar, Jalapeno Popper dip in the cold section that is top freaking notch.
  15. Pretty disappointing situation. I was driving home from work on Friday. I get to the intersection of University and WEslayan a few blocks from my house. On the corner is a house with a big sign out front stating their Beto sign was stolen. I think that's a low life, horseshit move for someone to pull, stealing someone's sign and infringing on their 1st amendment. I have a friend working for the Beto group handing out signs. I send her a txt about the situation, and arrange to get a new sign for this person's yard. I acquire sign that night, and take it to the house. The guys says thanks, and that he's had 6 people bring him signs already. Glad to see some people found the actions to be straight horseshit as I did. THing is, the guy has all these extra signs now, but has left out the big announcement about how shitty the other side is for stealing his sign. I get it. Guessing he won't update to add that there is a ton of good out there that people brought him new ones, at least one of which came from a registered Republican.. What I am getting at is it is apparent this dude is simply trying to fuel further the dialog of discord about how horrible the other side is, when he now has at least 6 examples of good. Get over it. Be the bigger person. the whole climate is simply pathetic.
  16. that was one of my huge issues with shake shack when it opened in Rice Village in Houston. No jalapenos. You opened a burger shop in Texas, and have no jalapenos and claim you have sport peppers for your Chicago dog? Did you do any market research? At all? GTFO. apparently im not the only a-hole who complained. THey now do offer jalapenos "for their texas customers". Well, thanks so much for going out of your way for "texas customers". I know, I know, don't eat shitty burgers at shake shack, and there are thousands of better options. I get it. I know. I don't make that many decisions around my house. I am fine with that most of the time.
  17. Is his annoying ass dead wife now for real dead and gone, or do we still have to deal with flashbacks of that nonsene? I bailed 2 episodes into last season due to that goofy shit. I need Ray being a "fixer". I don't need Ray's emotional baggage. The show isn't that deep or serious.
  18. He’d definitely know about lying about what is in a health bill.
  19. well played.
  20. that steering wheel is straight out of my 1990 Mustang GT. Circa 2006 when Aston came out with their mid engine Vantage that was supposed to compete with the 911 I flirted with swapping my 2005 C2S for one. My buddy who owned a dealership has a program Vantage he let me take for the weekend to try out. I kept it about half a day just to make sure. I knew the moment I turned out onto the service road and hit the gas there was zero shot I would trade for that thing. It was way way way more BMW 6 series than anything else. That is fine if you market the car as a sporty touring car. If you market it as a 911 competitor, and deliver a 600 series......no. Thing felt so heavy, sluggish, underpowered, and just flat out boring. The engine did sound good. It was inarguably one of the best looking cars ever made at the time. It simply was not what I was looking for, nor what I expected.
  21. based on my experience you'd still end up doing nothing but staring at brake lights from your 3 series service loaner.
  22. I've yet to see anyone voice any sort of support for these kinds of actions, nor anyone making any excuses. The reaction from the right is about 180 degrees from the reaction of the left when a sitting senator encouraged people to harass members of the opposite party. I hope they fry this dude in very quick time.
  23. yeah. she has that pretty mangled grill, and kinda crazy eyes, but oozes straight sexiness for whatever reason. Confident, smart, and strong willed for sure.
