  1. Mine and Mrs C-Man’s votes are in as of a few mins ago. Chalk up two more votes in Texas for Kamala and Collin!
  2. C-Man

    Not a Tesla

    Saw that was coming out last year and it looks very cool.
  3. Never heard that side of him. All I knew was the shiftiness to customers — maybe it was an act like GM Steakhouse. I dunno. Food wasn’t good enough to bother with that IMO.
  4. Love that the walk off music is “I Love LA” from Randy Newman, which was famously used in The Naked Gun.
  5. Wow, shades of Kirk Gibson. Fuck the Yankees!
  6. The first Goff’s Burger that I was aware of — and I moved to Dallas in 1998 — was at Lovers/Douglas right by HP High School. That’s where the Lenin statue was. Then Goff’s moved by SMU and burned and is now near SMU. There was one up Preston or Greenville but I think it closed. Harvey was a prick and I never went. AFAIK, they’re still doing two-for-one burgers on Tuesdays. The tornado started just north of Love Field (basically Walnut Hill-ish), about a mile or so from my house and blasted due East/NE for about 30 mins. It tore through some of the wealthiest homes in the entire state and crossed Central/75 at Forest. It passed over St. Mark’s on the way. Some big homes got hella fucked up.
  7. I’m a fan of Beyoncé’s sister, stupid suit notwithstanding
  8. They're on their way. I know very few people still in the business but I will tell you that the rank-and-file still in the trenches are every bit the chaser of truth that they've always been. Yes, there are some bad apples in every bunch. The struggle between the ad side and the news side was always real. Publishers tended to be rich folks who galavanted around town with other rich people doing Republican things. The difference is the Republicanism has changed. It's gotten ugly. It's gotten cruel. I've been saying this since shortly after Trump took office in 2017. His worst lasting legacy -- if he doesn't win re-election and go all fascist on us, destroy American Democracy, etc -- is he has absolutely destroyed any and all trust in legacy media. It's just gone like a fart in the wind. "Fake news" has been beaten into our lexicon and it ain't likely going away in my lifetime. Legacy media was probably our only hope to defeat the ridiculousness that passes as "truth" these days. The shit that is put out there that the GQP/MAGAts believe is simply astounding. (Yes, foreign bad actors are creating a lot of the nonsense but it spreads as gospel by the American moron.)
  9. Well, that was extra special. Always love seeing that hate-filled manlet get his.
  10. Wait, I missed this shit yesterday. This MF’er was given, accepted and kept a veteran’s Purple Heart?!?! https://www.threads.net/@ronaldfilipkowski/post/DBfgTystLBB?xmt=AQGzkPfObqsAovaozifp_dHw8nF6sjic1uY2ghjrytBTcQ As one of the comments said, that is next-level Boomer stupidity giving to turnip.
  11. This is a “neighbor” on our nightly walk route. Veteran, who we used to get a chuckle out of him walking this dumb little dog while he’s on his riding mower. Shouldn’t be surprised but the Trump sign went up on his fence and now he’s adorned the back of his mower with a sign. Before we left tonight, my wife said I hope that guy is riding his mower and walking the dog and wearing fatigues so I can take his picture. Just add “with a Trump campaign sign” and I think this is what AI would shoot back at you — and that’s exactly what we got tonight in real life.
  12. Was thinking the same thing. Can't have too many defensemen come playoff time. We saw that first-hand this past spring when we were rolling with five back there and just gassed Miro.
  13. Hattie B's on Lemmon is open. Went the other day for lunch. I thought it was damn good.
  14. No $1M "lottery" winner yesterday. Guess Elmo/Leon didn't like having his peepee spanked by the DOJ.
  15. Recently-retired, 18-term Republican house member Fred Upton from Michigan slams Dotard and endorses Kamala. https://www.mediaite.com/election-2024/hes-just-totally-unhinged-trump-scorched-by-18-term-gop-congressman-from-michigan-who-announces-hes-endorsing-harris/
