  1. This is a pic I took from the Munich show. That’s 50,000 people picnicking on the hillside over looking the stadium. That’s not even the paying customers, and she made a point of having the people in the stadium do a cheer for the folks outside. It was awesome.
  2. It’s Huckleberry, so I’m not going to argue with the math here.
  3. Awesome. I’m going to be having so many “it’s not you, it’s me” lunches over the next few weeks
  4. It's not even that, it's the classic "HOW ARE WE UP ONLY 17 BY THE END OF THE FIRST?!!!!!! CHILES SHOULD STARTS!!!!!"
  5. My wife reminded me that Pence had a fucking fly on his face for like a 1/4 of the debate.
  6. Seeing Spanish Revival outside of the SW is always a bit jarring.
  7. So much this. As long as the tiny sliver of the electorate that can't make up it's mind in a normal fashion comes away from the debate saying "I can live with her" she'll have won. The failure to do that is what sunk Hilary, particularily because a slice of the electorate decided to YOLO Trump before all of his awful Trumpiness was on full display. If she can manage to turn that "I can live with this" into "I like this lady!" then she can actually put a landslide on the table. The ugly truth for democrats is they haven't run an actually likeable entity since Obama (and I'd argue the 2008 version, not the 2012). Joe was old and on fumes by 2020. But you gotta go back to 1996 to find a candidate that made America say "This guy fucks!" (Literally and rhetorically).
  8. You going to post the pics of that Banh Mi or just fuck the rules now?
  9. Saw Bruce for the first time last night. Absolutely lived up the the hype. I have no idea how he does that. I'm 51 and just watching the show wore me the fuck out.
  10. She's on the laminated part of my marriage hallpass, along with Hurley.
  11. Wait. Hold up. Are you saying crying during Terms of Endearment is optional as a man? Was one of you assholes going to clue me in or where you just going to let me get the ugly cry forever?
  12. He's just a degenerate gambler with a blog at this point in his life. Why don't you go pay to see some more flops, Nate, and then lecturer us how it's not just a classier version of old ladies shoving coins in the slots? This is such a wild thing. Alternatively, they want a 6 month CR because they think they will be in a better place next March. Conversely, if I'm the Democrats, I'd be nervous about a lame duck Omnibus. What's to keep McConnell, after a Harris victory, and the chaos of a friendly transition from looking at Schumer and saying "Nice Victory, Chuck. It'd be a damn shame if the government was in shut down during Inauguration. But I'm sure that won't happen.... Anyway, here's a list of my.... "priorities"... for the end of the year Omnibus."
  13. House Park is lowkey one of the best stadiums in the world, given the setting and location. I've told this story before, but when I was in HS at Westlake in the late 80s early 90s, about half of the Westlake Parents and Grandparents were Austin High grads. Everybody went to church together all across Austin and the Westbank. A bunch of the players were kids of Darrell Royal era Longhorn teams. The Austin High/Westlake game at House Park was just this amazing opportunity for everyone to have a mini family reunion in the parking lot and sideline, late in the year after the heat had broken so it was actually pleasant to be outside. Getting a seating at El Patio pre game was on Par with UT gamedays.
