  1. Yeah…. But Fox is too weak to ask the question that way. Folks ought to start doing it.
  2. Tracks. I work with a lot of tech bros. He is the most empty suit on that stage. He is the typical ex tech-CEO that had one good exit and think he’s gods fucking gift. He is not.
  3. I can’t wait to see the Truth social bombs coming out tomorrow. Everyone but Vivek said something negative about Trump. Better question to all of them - how do you expect to fucking win?
  4. I’m not doing the education part. I am out. Godspeed surly-ites
  5. DeSantis has engaged Seinfeld Rabbi mode.
  6. Vivek is a fucking beating. He is the first person that made me kind of like Pence. Haley just nuked him.
  7. Man, Christie doing the Hunter Biden dance and completely whiffing on how that gun law is enforced customarily.
  8. Fucking lying about abortion. Abortion to term at choice? Yeah, no state allows that unless health of mother at risk. I guess they are preaching to choir. VP Pence, did you fuck up Covid? Let me tell you about defunding the police.
  9. Meh..... I like mine, but they are mostly house and backyard pool shoes. I don't wear them in public except on accident.

    Austin FC

    Well our roster construction does suck because we have two benched DPs. That is death in this league. That said, other than Memo and Hedges (and Craig (?) who can't seem to find the field), all of the players were signed in a prior regime. I think the new guy would be fine if the season were to end early so he can get started on the "rebuild" and it would also give him an excuse to fire Wolff. I am in between Bottlecap and ztejas on Wolff, so whatever happens there, happens. But tanking sucks, because outside of last year, the MLS playoffs are usually a free for all, and the difference between 4th and 10th is a two week swing, good or bad. I'd like to make the playoffs. My guess is that this is a very different looking team next year and only Driussi and maybe Stuver are safe. I presume it will be hard to rid ourselves of Rigoni at this point, but I expect Ring, Zardes, and Urruti to be gone. I'd say we ought to be able to sell Wolff to Europe, but he was bad last night. Pereirra has talent, but he's not a good defender which is ... not ideal.... for your 6. I want a destroyer back there and I'd give up Pererra's 25 yard forward runs through traffic to have homeless man's Tyler Adams protecting the CBs. I am VERY curious what Rodo plans in the offseason. January will be really interesting.
  11. The look ok that kid’s face in Nashville that walked Messi out….. Pretty cool. Also good to hear boos and knowing that this crowd won’t roll over in awe like Frisco. Hope this is a fun game.
  12. Please please please let him do something to try to one up the debate. More NFTs, a rally at the same time that he asks Newsmax to air instead of the debate, seppuku….. whatever. It’s all I ask. Edited to add that DeSantis has to hate this. He is going to be the main target of the others both because of where he sits in the polls and that he’ll be the stand in for Trump for the few that are brave enough to bitchslap Trump. I will say it would be good to see Trump at a debate to see how others “challenge” him given they’ve all (other than Christie, Hutchison and Hurd) have been so afraid to seem critical at all.
  13. The first guy at the debate (probably Christie since Hurd and Hutchison probably don’t make it) that does the “Yeah, Trump deserves to die, and I hope he burns in hell!” take at the debate will get a 5-10 point bump. That person still won’t come with 20 points of Trump. But I think someone that comes out aggressive and shames the others tip toeing around the indictments consolidates some of the polling. I just hope it happens for the entertainment value.
  14. It is the Exec Wellness Program at Austin heart hospital. It’s $3500 flat but my company subsidizes about 75% of it. Was worth it I think. Basically a full typical primary care, physical, plus stress test on treadmill, CT scan, ultrasound of carotids and internal organs plus checking blood flow in limbs (cuffs just above ankles and wrists), the 45 minute massage followed by immediate consultation on results with internal medicine Dr and nutritionist. My wife had DCIS breast cancer (did not spread) and now has potential MAC infection in lungs, so when she found out our company does this she insisted I do it to flush things out. I never go to Dr and never get sick so if something was brewing inside of me I wouldn’t know.
  15. Just got back from a 1/2 day physical at Austin Heart Hospital that included the CT scan. 28.4 Agatson score with 2.84 in LAD. Mild but not great. No blockages though and everything else in the body running solid based on stress test and ultrasounds My cholesterol has always been fine and TriGs see saw. I was up over 280 at one point a few years back, but at 175 today. When I am working out regularly, TriGs are generally under 125 when I look at past results LDL was at 124 which is normally fine, but given calcium score, they want it under 70 which seems but so but I’ll give it a go. Doc gave me a statin prescription but I am hesitant to start that and thinking diet and exercise for 90 days, retest, and see if LDL and TriG goes down. But curious others’ thoughts presuming I don’t get the side effect if I might as well do both? Anyway, I am 47 so glad I found this thread as it got me to do the scan.
  16. Got it. But is that truly a removal? Would federal court decide on Georgia law in that instance? Or is it a procedural play? If it’s the former, then can they really still be pardoned given it’s still a state crime? I am a dumb corporate fake lawyer that only foggily remembers procedure from the Bar and Mullenix.
  17. First - over under on how many days until the “I hate Riggers” tshirts start outselling “Let’s Go Brandon”? Second - I should know this, but can you remove a criminal case to Federal Court? Is the argument “if I committed a crime I broke Federal law too and that supersedes”? These are Georgia statutes.
  18. We saw it over weekend. I really liked it. I absolutely guffawed at the Godfather then Lou Reed/Malkmus mansplaining scenes.... My wife looked at me and I knew. I basically made her watch The Bear after a similar mansplanation about why she had to watch it (note: she enjoyed it). It was really well done.
  19. Not thrilled with the 3rd sentence. Would change to "Trump and the other Defendants knew that Trump lost, but regardless they knowingly and willfully....."
