  1. Suddenly my forays into Dmitri’s in Galveston, the Ship’s Wheel in Crystal Beach seem like visits to Chuck-E Cheese’s. Some of you shady bastards are lucky to be alive.
  2. I believe Goines was allowed to “retire” so that he could keep his full pension.
  3. Same here - just a beautifully shot sequence. Hell, even the pantry and fridge shots were making me nostalgic.
  4. Watched the first couple of episodes of Animal Kingdom. Not bad, but it is definitely evoking a lot of Point Break vibes. /applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Ellen Barkin would still get it.

  6. How about a Kanye biopic? Is that something you might be interested in?
  7. I know we’re only 3 days away from a far more iconic photograph, but... ...Ricky kicked some serious ass when he wore 37 in tribute to Doak.
  8. Texas Rangers were on the scene today investigating with the DA’s office according to KPRC.
  9. Lilshep sighting!
  10. Very northdakotastate-ish
  11. Roddrick Muckelroy
  12. Brian Robison
  13. Indeed it does...there’s a cameo by Terry Price.
  14. How humane of him. Probably thinks he deserves the Nobel prize for refraining from the nukes.
  15. ^^^^ The lack of self-awareness in that moment was awesome. His cursory dismissal of the comments that Kiffen had written to him inside that book he gave him about ego was very telling.
  16. I don’t know if it’s really true, but when they were discussing how hardly any of the players (like maybe 2 total) were on scholarship, it was a real WTF moment for me. Some of those players are absolutely destitute, so it’s mind-boggling (and sad) that their families are scraping up enough money to pay for them to keep chasing a dream that in all likelihood just isn’t going to pan out. There are exceptions of course (Gary Johnson being just one example), but the vast majority are never going to make it to the NFL. The bloated rosters, and higher enrollment numbers, also put into context the concerns that some of the citizens were raising about expenditures and the purpose of the college. Seemed like the administration and faculty were basically conceding that only a fraction of the students were actually from the community. Based upon the “quality” of the education being provided to the students, it makes one wonder if there is really any meaningful benefit to the community at all.

  21. Since I will be at DKR watching the Horns lay the smack down on LSU on 9/7, I'll give you my 2 tickets for that game against the Mariners for the low, low, price of - free. Send me an email address that I can forward tix to via PM if you want them.
  22. 4 Texans entered. The first to cross the finish line, in 34:03:07, was 63 yr old lady from San Leon. A 45 yr old dude from Fort Worth finished in 37:24:13. There's 31 yr old guy from Lipan, TX still on the course somewhere past the 122.7 mile marker, and 51 yr old lady from Friendswood who has crossed the 90.6 marker. I was thinking I would skip my 4 mile run this afternoon because of the heat, but now I feel like a slacker.
  23. I Love You, Now Die: The Commonwealth v. Michelle Carter. Another really well done documentary on HBO. Carter is currently 5 months into the 15 month sentence that she received, but just filed an appeal to the Supreme Court arguing that her conviction violated both her right to free speech under the 1st Amendment and her right to due process under the 5th Amendment. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/michelle-carter-who-encouraged-boyfriend-s-suicide-appeals-su
