  1. Barry Pepper fucking stole the whole movie as Ned Pepper You guys are high if you prefer the John Wayne version. The Coen Brothers captures Charles Portis' sublime dialogue. The direction and escalation to violence in the dugout cabin scene is next level.
  2. Cooper was lead in Lonestar, which most cinephiles rank as John Sayles best film. Anthony James (RIP) was a second tier bad guy and henchman in virtually everything 80s and 90s:
  3. Michael Biehn had a hell of a run in 80s/90s Maggie Smith has to be in the running. She’s never the lead and steals every scene from every single movie/show she’s ever been in.
  4. Since my son is at Oregon and we’ve been white knuckling it for the last year, this is me: In Shoe Daddy we trust.
  5. See, Tommy, if you FAFO in a mirror three times, you summon Gritty.
  6. I’ll just say it: dude saved us all a lot of time and money on his discharge/punishment. He’s the NK’s problem now
  7. On a nice clear day, Mount St. Helen's is 100% worth it. As is anything associated with Olympic National Park. I don't stan for the Eastern Shore as much as most people around DC, but Easton, Maryland is very lovely.
  8. I'm tired of giving stuff from the parts bin to the Ukrainians. Let's crack out the good stuff and get some.
  9. Didn;t @Brisketexan drive one of those shitboxes around Europe back in the day? As a 3 pedal addict, it's always been a low key bucket list to give it a go. Also, braless milfs is my wheel house, so have your friend try harder, mmmmmkay?
  10. I gotta be honest. I’m getting a little dubious of the wholeUS military industrial complex. Sorta seems like they might have been bilking the shit outta the American taxpayer and not actually making stuff. Except the drone guys. Those guys fuck.
  11. That last clause in your last sentence is the one you need to be worried about.
  12. Season 4 of Jack Ryan was turrible. Michael Peña, Wendall Pierce, and Michael Kelly do some solid work as secondary characters and have some moments of humor, but it was just stupid/bad writing/weak bad guys, etc.
  13. Or we won’t. There are plenty of instances in human history of the short term lasting decades or centuries.
  14. In beer, I live by The 4 P’s: -Pilsners -Proper Pales -Porters But I’m mostly a High Noon guy when day drinking and wine at night.
  15. Just wanted to thank y’all for the updates and interesting commentary. I work IP adjacent and the awkwardness on my coalition calls as everyone’s lobbyist is ignoring the raging 800 lb gorilla in the room is insane.
  16. Also, now that I’m old, I can’t read the date without my glasses anyway, so my date hasn’t been set in years. I used to mock the cyclops on a Rolex, but I get it now.
  17. Getting the SN Celebration and the Anchor Christmas was pretty much a ritual for me, but I did notice the Anchor Xmas had gotten very hard to find in the last couple of years.
  18. Before Sapporo it was owned by a PE firm. Maytag sold Anchor in 2010, because he was tired and I don’t think there was a successor stepping up to take the lead (unlike Sierra Nevada, where the kids have taken over). I remember them shuffling their line up (I think there was a lager for awhile). I don’t dispute Sapporo ran it into the ground, just that Japanese liquor conglomerates are weird. They aren’t Diageo. Kirin owns Four Roses. They took it from being a rotgut blend to arguable the best affordable premium bourbon.
