    I kind of didn't like that part. I loved 2 when it came out. I was 6. I mean it's not a bad movie; it's biggest fault, imo, is that it just was not the level of awesome that the first was. My 4yo is really big into He-Man with the re-launch of the original toy line, my old toys and dvds, and the new netflix Revelation show as well as the way different animated series Netflix made (which I thought I'd hate, but actually really like - even being as different from the original as it is. My little guy cracked up at the beginning of #2 when Ray and Winston show up at the kid's b-day party and all of the kids start chanting "he-man! he-man! he-man!" I particularly liked the really subtle nods to the first movie. There are some obvious "hit you over the head" type throwbacks, but then some are really subtle and play good fan-service to the 35-45 crowd that lived on this stuff as a kid.

    Saw it last night. Been waiting since 1989 after #2 for the next chapter in the story. It was fun watching it through the eyes of my kids... my 11yo who picked up on almost all the references to the original, as well as my 4yo who is just starting to get into GB and remembering what it was like when I was his age. Oh, and I dug up an old shirt I had from GB2 back in the day... it "fit" in as much as I could barely fit it on. My 11yo was thoroughly embarrassed when I took my sweatshirt off in the theater and was wearing a t-shirt close to 2 sizes too small. The movie was good, not amazing. Better than the abortion reboot that came out a few years ago. The little girl who played the lead was fantastic imo.

    I'm not a lawyer - somehow still ended up on here and TOS. Guess I'm just an average asshole. What was the DA doing to provoke a mistrial?

    One of my favorite podcasts.

    I saw that movie. Thought it was a comedy. Turns out it was a prophecy.

    Jesus Christ, this is too much off-season before we even really hit the summer.

    Root Beer

    BlueGreySky replied to RPM's topic in Food and Travel

    If you’ve never been to Del’s in old downtown Richardson you’re missing out on some fantastic burgers and my dad’s favorite root beer. They make it in house and serve it in a frosty cold mug.

    Marie Sharp's is awesome. Got my first bottle last week. Also went and grabbed a bottle of Lola's off this thread's recommendations. Not my cup of tea. The one I go through the fastest has to be Crystal extra hot. And WillUSAF - have you tried the sauce you got, Sling Blade, yet? Another one of my favorites. But my absolute favorite - and I think I've mentioned it here before - is Penitente, http://montezumabrand.com/new-products/penitente-tortured-soul-hot-sauce/

    I can pretty much smash an entire Casey's pepperoni pizza in one sitting. I do think the Taco pizza is overrated though.
  11. BlueGreySky
    Casey's?

    Probably in the vast minority here but my favorite work of his is “All My Friends Are Going to be Steangers.” RIP.

    Any of you know the smoke show in section 128 in the first three rows? Will try to provide an “airport hot or not” pic for eval. And can’t believe this lead is only 5. Smh.

    Sloppy to say the least.

    Late to the discussion on this but are any of y’all here?

    As a kid - Plano East making a huge comeback against Tyler John Tyler. 4 touchdowns and 3 successful onside kicks with 3 mins left and then with 1 min left, kicked it deep on the kickoff and returned for a touchdown to beat PESH. Dagger to my 9 year old heart. As a young adult - The Bush Push. Fuck USC. As an adult - everyone's favorite GIF of the Baylor punter being de-cleated in the Cotton Bowl vs Sparty. At that moment I knew Baylor was going to choke and I just wanted to see a win for my pops a '66 BU alum and letterman. That was his last year with us.

    "I prefer it my way." that and the scene where he blows away one of his soldiers for flirting with one of the girls and Cage gets visibly shook but then quickly shifts it to "well now it's a used gun!" are both fantastic.

    34. Lots of good foods on that list but not all exclusive to Texas.

    Watching the video about Dr Duke reminded me about a buddy of mine who interviewed the trauma doc that attended to Kennedy - Robert McClelland https://www.iheart.com/podcast/139-query-and-schultz-27089669/episode/q-s-highlight-dr-robert-53022473/?cmp=ios_share&sc=ios_social_share&pr=false#

    We've enjoyed a couple Giordano's pizzas in the last few months. One frozen that we cooked at home and one fresh we did takeout from a location here in Indy. Both were good. Deep dish isn't my favorite, but every once in a while it hits the spot. I've been eyeing Gino's East in the frozen section at Kroger... but based off of this thread I'll save some money and stick to other favorites.

    I do love me some Crystal and Tapatio and have close to 50 different brands in my collection, but when I'm in the mood for good bit of heat, this is my absolute favorite sauce for the right amount of heat and some amazing flavor. Unlike most sauces made with the Trinidad Scorpion or Carolina Reaper it's not too think - a bit more of the consistency of Crystal.

    Same with us. Although we still havent had more than a dozen cases. But let's lock our kids up again and do non-existent virtual "learning".

    utee- I’ve had the same experience. Students reaching out saying how appreciative they are and happy to be back in school. Got a few emails and even a few handwritten notes. Two students I taught for their freshman and sophomore year came by today. I don’t teach them right now but will next semester. Worried that the spring will be cancelled too and that he and she won’t get to have my class (in person) next semester and I don’t teach seniors.

    Oh, and my kids are visibly depressed by it. One freshman started crying.
