  1. Damn good cheese, though.
  2. When I was an insider in a small public company, I was advised to only buy/sell company stock via a filed selling plan. I know it's the wild west these days, but is that no longer a thing? Can insiders just trade on a whim?
  3. This guy who rules with an iron fist now wants his employees to stop selling?
  4. Holy crap, almost triple? I'm in the wrong business.
  5. It's fascinating how so many Texas fans don't understand this. You don't have to agree with it, but that's the way it is.

    Pizza

    They're decent sized and they are delicious. The only bread my wife can consume is sourdough -- it has odd (and minimal) effects on blood sugar -- so we're happy to pay up a bit over random-ass pizza rolls.
  7. Well, that too. I use the free Rain Sounds app on my phone. Very low volume and it's definitely kinda white noise adjacent. Tons of different recordings to play, you have to search, some have random thunder or birds chirping, which is not helpful.

    lulz, no, it's $7.50 for 3 rolls.
  9. I actually never got that vaccine. I had severe allergies and my pediatrician thought the risk was too high. So, I look forward to the next smallpox outbreak in the US, which should be within the year.
  10. F'n Tories.
  11. Heathrow doesn't have UPS + gensets? No way.
  12. OK, so we're up to one. Some would call it "the exception that proves the rule".
  13. I know he's "only" 62, but that's a rough 62.
  14. Brisket is decent, turkey is better. Ribs are a no-go. As you say, sammiches and whatnot are reliable.
  15. 100%. Better food by a good margin. Alternatively, pick up some 'Q from a great joint before you have to be at the service, put it in coolers, and tailgate afterwards. True Texas.
  16. Whatever happens, pass on Salt Lick at the Diamond.
  17. In general I think Duritz is a putz, but that first CC record is fantastic. I've seen them live a few times and he just can't be bothered to stick to the melodies. Drives me crazy.
  18. No expert, but I've owned a few. As long as you're comparing the same body size, you're basically paying for more expensive wood and decoration as the numbers go up. Price doesn't necessarily correspond to quality of build or sound quality. I played every guitar in the store in the early aughts, was willing to drop up to $3K or so, and walked away with a $1K Taylor 310. Still have it. Plays like a dream, records well, nice balanced sound.
  19. Impossible. No track record building a P4 program. Hard pass. #surly
  20. I bought an acrylic French press, does a good job, much less risk of cracking it.
  21. Texas is a blueblood in just about every minor sport, along with football and baseball. It's a lot easier to land a whale when you're a blueblood. This hire is gonna be tricky.
  22. You apparently missed one of my criteria.
  23. Find me a great head coach who lacks ego. I'll wait.
  24. "You're making fun of him for attending Tulane?"
