  1. Ha. Yeah, I had heard they're not too fond of tourists. I didn't select Bolinas for the town, only because the house we found sits on a cliff overlooking the Pacific. Going to be a home base while we explore the area. Definitely planning on hitting up Muir Woods one of the days. Other thoughts were just walking to Agate beach and checking out the tide pools. Point Reyes is a great idea. Will include!
  2. I've been practicing criminal law for over a decade and never once I have I seen someone weighed during booking. I have no idea why the entire world including the myriad internet experts just assumed they weigh during bookings. Did the county indicate they were going to?
  3. Yeah, other than the weather (which is big) I'm not seeing a lot of differences politically in Texas and NC. Urban, educated areas are blue; but rural areas are red, crazy, and effectively run the state. Admittedly, I have not paid much attention to local NC politics.
  4. Technically, the trial date starting in October means that's when jury selection starts. That could drag on until the Spring and opening arguments would not commence until then.
  5. Man, we must've been fucking unstoppable in 2017/2018.
  6. I only practice in one jurisdiction, but I've never known Law enforcement to actually weigh and measure the defendants when booked. I've been wondering all week why Georgia was different, but I guess the internet was just wrong again.
  7. Snagged a VRBO in Bolinas beach in October. Never ventured up there. Taking all recs for that area and surrounding spots.
  8. Two submissions for the day: 1) https://www.lgbtqnation.com/2023/08/trans-jan-6-rioter-is-begging-marjorie-taylor-greene-to-get-her-into-a-womens-prison/ and. 2) http://packaged-media.redd.it/0i3cjhbz0rjb1/pb/m2-res_640p.mp4?m=DASHPlaylist.mpd&v=1&e=1692820800&s=cc28d2591f18bb4e36d9c251bea6c5c6edbd5e2d#t=0 (sorry, won't embed)
  9. All of this. Plus, where I live, everyone loves to make a big stink about how they send their kids to public schools "for the diversity" and so their kids don't "grow up in a bubble. Which sure, that makes sense. But the theory falls apart when you see that these people all bought $1m+ homes to live in the districts with the 10/10 schools, and which are usually 70% white, 25% Asian, 5% other. Edit: posrep for Kinkaid hate
  10. It's like if you gave a 16 year old an assignment to review a New Yorker article 5 minutes after he finished Atlas Shrugged
  11. Some people can't help it. They see "EV" and get irrationally angry. Imagine if OP posted a thread about top cities with playground structures and some super smart guy posted an op-ed about leftist education policy. That's what @DalTxHornFan just did.
  12. Is that why they call so many of our fans "t-shirt fans?" Confusion over the concept of "Texas exes?"
  13. Pretty sure that's just a wet parking lot
  14. Guys, he's right. As far as I know, Texas has never been able to stand a candle against A&M. Doubt we've even tried, tbh
  15. Only 3 options: 1) it's all real 2) Gary-peterson like troll 3) simulation I know which one I'm leaning towards
  16. No, in California. I've been trying to solve this issue for awhile. Our house was built in 1902 and has over 20 original Box sash windows. They were in such bad shape that you could stand next to them on a windy day and feel drafts leaking through the cracks. Last year, I paid a small fortune to have them all restored which helped seal them up, but there's still a shit load of single pane glass staring at the sun all day. Hoping the tint/film solution will help. I'd note that I have read some negative thing about AWSF's quality over time. My understanding is that the ceramic tint from 3M is the gold standard, but that's going to cost you.
  17. For 10+ windows (three of which are huge) total cost, including tax, labor, etc., Was around $750. But, I'm also considering ordering this https://suntekfilms.com/na/en/architectural-window-film/ And doing the install myself. Still in the early stages of research though
  18. I just got a quote on having every East and South facing window tinted with this stuff. https://aswf.com/product/daydream/ Strongly considering it
  19. Yeah so just close your eyes and fucking wing it
