  1. Saw it last night. As good a summer action flick as has ever been done. Great non-stop action, stunts, decent storyline, etc.
  2. Definitely worth it, but make sure you stop here and under no circumstances should you continue on to Rosemary beach on 30a. You really do not want to go there. Stick with destin. All of you.
  3. it has gone down hill. I cant tell you the number of wines ive gotten from there that had to be returned, or the number of recs that are just straight terrible. Total Wine destroys them at this point.
  4. Agree on all but Popeyes. You don’t disparage Popeyes. Ever. Get an extra side of the Cajun Gravy and dip your chicken in that.

    TexMex

    Enchiladas a la Taylor at span vil are so damn good. El tiempo richmond el real lopez on wilcrest Love all those places.
  6. Our service did not help. We basically told the guy “we’ve never been here, just bring us the top 10 chefs items we should eat”. Guy someone how neglected to include the fresh, live soft shell crab and A5 carpaccio in his selections. Wtf? I had to Order those myself. I would say everything was good/fine, whatever, but nothing blew any of us away. The debris po’boy and brisket I ate at bucks bbq yesterday was better than anything i had at AQui. Of course, that isn’t as much a knock on AQui as it is confirmation champ is killing it over at bucks.
  7. That was kinda our experience. Everything was good, but nothing really blew me away nor would have me rushing back to do it again. My guess is it won’t make it much longer. Was really empty. Granted it was Wednesday.
  8. Anyone been to aqui? Heading there tonight.
  9. Wearing an oldie but goodie today. Ulysses Nardin dual time. Just noticed I have the wrong date and I have pm rather than am. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. Given the track record of epic failure of progressive legislation I cannot fathom anyone wanting more of it.
  11. Hot Scarpetta last night. Foie gras and duck ravioli was great spaghetti was great as always. The veal osso bucco was bland and disappointing. Went to the 10:00 absinthe show. Not sure what I was expecting but damn if it didn’t exceed whatever my expectations were. Goddamn that was some hilarious shit and amazing acrobatics. Couple of gays got hit pretty hard by the circus master. They weren’t very happy about it. Everyone else who cushy this wrath handled exceptionally. That guy is brutal and hilarious. Great great show.
  12. Looks like Lydia makes her bcs debut in the trailer.
  13. So far the palazzo has been very solid. Cheap gaming thus far and good room rates. Rooms are big and well done. We have eaten on site Thursday and Friday. b&b bistro on Friday night was exceptional. We hit cut steakhouse last night and it was incredible. Going to venture out tonight. At cut we took our own wine 2012 kapcandy estate and a 2011 jp insignia. The steaks were absurdly good and I think the wines were even better. You can get 3-2 odds on blackjack with a 50 minimum. You can get $10 blackjack too, but blackjack pays 6-5 on that. I don’t gamble enough for it to make much difference to me. Those payouts suck. You can only split aces once. They do not have the 000 on roulette, UT I never play that game anyway. I love to play craps but damn it’s expensive. I’ve mostly stayed away from that. I have a hard time enjoying gambling because i hate to lose at anything. With the odds so stacked and payouts so shitty I have a hard time enjoying nickel blackjack.
  14. Texas jersey is a mess. Color is wrong, font is not only off, but waaay too large. The logo in the center should not be there. It’s a complete disaster too to bottom. Don’t get why this is so hard to get right.
  15. went to get a beef rib today with the special lady friend. no joy. champ is off in Chicago trying to win some bbq cook off.
  16. It was kind of a joke. Kinda.
  17. What home game does Texas have on the schedule other than usc that is worth att being over a wedding? Yeah. None of them. And I don’t like attending weddings.
  18. Looks like I will be back working in downtown soon. Brisket and meatloaf weekly!!!!!
  19. This is what I do. It turns out perfect every time, and is so Damn simple.
  20. Heading to Vegas next weekend. This thread has me somewhat disappointed. Sounds like it’s gone to hell. I stayed at the encore once when it first opened and was basically told no at every turn as well. Never stayed there again. Staying at palazzo this time. I like the spacious rooms and i really love cut steakhouse. Haven’t been to Vegas in years. What’s the best show right now?
  21. You guys proving my point and why we will not have any decent solution. I welcome all immigrants here. I simply want the laws followed and the ones that aren’t working I want changed according to the constitutionally mandated manner for changing them. Meanwhile, pointing out that a nation of laws should act like a nation of laws gets you labeled a racist. It’s no surprise we are horrible at nominating candidates, electing leaders or coming up with reasonable solutions to anything.
  22. I married a legal immigrant of a different race than me. Gonna have to try harder.
  23. Same here. I find the Republican Party wholly incompetent and repulsive. I find the Democrat alternative full of mentally ill imbeciles who’s ideology is rooted in abject failure. I am repulsed by politics in general, but when push comes to shove I will take the ones who at least pretend like they’re not insane. I still cannot see where all the race/facism shit comes from. It’s now if you favor upholding immigration laws and kicking out the felons breaking our laws and if you’re someone who actually upholds your oath of office to make sure the laws are enforced, you’re a racist. It’s really a kindergarten argument. I don’t like the immigration laws. I absolutely want them enforced. I absolutely want Congress and the president to work on a new immigration law. THere is a right way to go about changing outdated law. Ignoring the law, failing to enforce it, failing to work on a new law, and calling people racists isn’t the way. Off soap box and out of here.
  24. The choice on the other side was Hillary. Make whatever case you want, but that choice wasn’t exactly a signature moment either. Fact is we aren’t very good at alerting leaders these days. The last 50 years our two best presidents include a b list actor and a sexual deviant who was Impeached(but not removed from office). Not sure picking the last election is an indication of anything other than again, we aren’t very good at picking candidates nor electing leaders.
  25. That’s a beauty for sure. Love that model.
