  1. Mea culpa. You can buy me one at the Juice Box next time the good guys are in town.
    Oddly enough Nolan made me a Rangers fan second. I saw two no hitters on live TV. And my wife was an As fan and they were* my third favorite team since the Bash Brothers days.

    The realignment couldn't have been worse for me personally.

    *Chunked all my As shit with the move. I have a history of supporting teams with cheap fucking owners. Oilers, Stros and As. Furk
  2. The Finns are good people. I have stayed in contact with a couple I met five years ago. I remember a quote from the guy when we were talking about Europe, France and French attitudes in particular. “Nobody in Europe likes France. We all hate the French.”
    I have met some great people in France, just not Parisans. They spoil it for the rest of the country. It's not a monolith. Like assuming people from Colombus Ohio ( or Columbus Texas for that matter) represent the entire country.

    Had to go put on the jersey, just felt right.
    He should have been an Astro forever. That stros gm broke my heart as a kid. I have at least one Nolan Ryan card from every year of his career up to 89.
    now why you'd have to go and do that
    why couldn't you have put on a RICKY jersey instead?
    Rangers fan, so he's an asshole riding the high of recent success.

  4. She’s getting all 10 inches tonight.
     
    That’s right, boys—Imma gonna fuck her like three times.
    Seconds of vigorous jackhammering?

    Feel you, I've has to go through live with an average sized 7" dick. I even shave my junk mindfully to make it look bigger.

  5. Watching NBC. We are fucked bc of our media. RW liars get equal air time and get no push back. "Donald Trump closed the border."
    Psakis response was neutral; "will Trump start talking about issues people care about instead of focusing on his personal issues."

  6. And the GOP being what it is, there's a real possibility that a convicted felon will become president on January 20, 2025.
    Maybe, i take a measure of comfort that you have less and less correct as of late. Like maybe the tide of shit has reached its apex.

  7. I was down there in Poc Thursday for a hot lap, we only fished from 7-1 from panther to SPL out of Charlie's with a guy that fishes tourneys and I had 6 bites all day on conventionals blind casting topwaters
    I had 5 fish 2 reds over 29, one rat, 3 trout around around 20. All fish were isolated and I had to walk another 1/2 mile for the next fish. Saw nothing over 16" visually, after covering miles of water. Everything was near color changes and scattered.

    Throwing a fly rod I could have maybe had the two trout but only because I knew in my bones a fish would be there- little wind current off a point with a little cover and color change. Classic ambush point you could draw up just like a river chart. The reds were just fan casting and covering Miles of water. Never visually saw a good red running or wading. And we did miles of both and being Thurs, pretty quiet down south.

    Keep on chucking. It's work and the fishing on the coast gets worse every year so you gotta work harder.

  8. I usually fish March April May and June once a month then September October and November once a month with a guide. So at least 7 times a year. Mine retired so I’m moving to a new one this Friday. Fishing with Alvin (one of the patriarchs of Texas fly fishing) in June stoked about that. Then my trout guide should be up and going on the coast this fall (just got his boat and license but he’s guiding the Devil’s this spring).
    Alvin is awesome , it's been many years since I've had the pleasure of fishing with him, and that was on the Colorado.

    I was in Prague once at a locals Pub. Old Dude was acting a bit weird at the bar but everyone knew him and chatted him; i never got to. Banged back 3 or 4 pints. Then, he got up to leave and pulled out his blind cane thingy, and expertly negotiated leaving the bar and down the streets for home. Smooth as fuck.

    Not sure the takeaway.
  10. Dick move. But maybe be less poor and go play at a better course that doesn’t have tee boxes 10 feet from a public road
    Wife and I did this one Sunday whilst driving around Lakeway. We were laughing are asses off; sometimes you gotta rock the boat.

  11. Watching Kimmel tonight and he said if you click on the QR code on the back for Call 2 Action, there’s nothing there and nothing online about this supposed charity that is getting portion of proceeds of Rudy Coffee sales for veterans and first responders. Wouldn’t that constitute fraud?
    Ha ha ha we checking the Trump universe for fraud now; that's a high hit rate full of targets that are already going to jail or can't pay legal fees or fines they already can't pay. I didn't learn shit in 1 year of law at Texas but I did learn not to sue broke fucks on day 1.

  12. Well it looks unlikely my kid is going to get into Ut, he's close, but not close enough. We are still trying to decide on his major in the next couple months and looking at other options.

    So far it's UT, UC Boulder, Washington, Texas State and wait for it, Texas Bulldog Aggies. /Shivers/.

    He's taking 5 AP classes next year, is a pretty good student but didn't work Pass Fail as well as he should have and lost some traction there. His freshman year was also subpar comparitvely coming off covid.

    Varsity athlete quitting to focus on School and admissions process for senior year
    And hopefully shadow various careers to rule out what he doesn't want to do.

    School recs for academic level just outside UT?
    Any ideas on helping him narrow a path?

    I'll read through the thread over the weekend. But this shit needs to move fast, for applications in Aug.
