  1. I love a good salad, but it’s a rookie mistake to gorge at the outstanding salad bar at Taste of Texas or a Brazilian steak restaurant.
  2. We lived in the Clear Lake area for a long time, two of our kids graduated from Clear Creek HS. They’re the wildcats, but Aggie colors. I was so glad when they graduated, we moved, and I could toss all that hideous maroon clothing I bought. The Aggie hive mind is strong down there. Now we live in rural ETX. The hive mind is even stronger up here. Tshirt fans everywhere.
  3. I have no idea what the heck is happening there. Obviously the driver assist is malfunctioning, but even with that happening, the driver should be able to brake.

  6. What's the difference between a kleptomaniac and a literalist? The literalist takes things literally. The kleptomaniac takes things, literally.
  7. Outstanding. Keep it up. Your thread was thought-provoking and inspirational. I went strict keto in Feb, and pivoted from running being my base fitness (since I was about 5 yo), to strength training being the base, supplemented with HIIT, running and swimming. My fitness has been up and down over the decades, and I was definitely at a low point in Jan. The keto has dramatically helped my mental outlook, which was at a crisis point in Jan. My lifelong mild/moderate claustrophobia became acute and I couldn’t fly or sit on a ski chairlift. All the physical stuff, combined with exposure therapy and particularly the keto, has really turned everything around. Keto brings down total inflammation, which contributes to all sorts of bad things, including anxiety disorders. Your results may vary.

  9. Probably improved the possum’s smell.
  10. Mrs NNM and I were trapped behind a bohemian French dude on a tour of Notre Dame (the Parisian one, pre-fire). Those enclosed passageways, particularly the enclosed stone staircases up to and around the roofline, were horrific. Your dude sounds like an air freshener compared to Frenchie.
  11. Here’s the video from which I captured the still. IMG_0962.mov
  12. Update @immamac? Every time I do pushups I think about this thread.
  13. That got me. The slow buildup to the scream is what makes the scream pay off.
  14. Our house has waterfront on a small (~50 acre) private lake. Our pool is by the lake. This time of year there are frequently small (and sometimes big) frogs in the pool and the skimmers. No big deal. I just grab them and yeet them into the lake. Mrs. NNM can’t handle the frogs. If I’m out of town for a few days and she has to clean the skimmers it’s a total drama show. Screaming, the whole bit. She has to use a β€œsnake grabber” to get them at a 3-foot length, crushing and killing them in the process, to dispose of them when I’m not here. I’ve explained and demonstrated the yeeting concept to her, and explained that she can do hard things. To no avail.

    Getting old sucks

    Don’t forget the eyebrows.
  21. Mrs. NNM, one of our daughters, and our son would like to go on a cruise. Our other daughter and I have no interest in being cooped up with 2,000 walmart patrons and herded in and out of attractions. I’d far rather rent a bungalow on the beach and watch the cruise people get ferried out on the tenders, while I enjoy watching the sunset with a cold drink.
