  1. In France I am sure it's different since I believe the government technically owns ND. In America most parishes/diocese are self-insured. We had an arson light a shelf of hymnals on fire in the back of our church 6 years ago. The fire was small and contained and only damaged the shelf and the wall between the interior of the church and the lobby... but between cleaning up the smoke damage, replacing carpets with tile, etc etc it took us 2 years to recover from a relatively sequestered fire that only burned for less than 10 mins before the FD arrived. I can only imagine the road ahead for ND and the rebuild.
  2. The anchor that was doing it is now off and I'm switching channels. He was a Catholic and was speaking from the heart. For that hour it was the only topic they covered.
  3. I watch CNN once every 4 years just for shits and giggles. Tonight, it's the only channel on appletv coving this that I can find. And the anchor covering it is doing a bang-up job. I'm pleasantly surprised. It's good. Real good.
  4. It's an hour away just outside Coleman, but goto Rancho Loma for dinner - make reservations. Do it. DO IT. http://rancholoma.com/ They also have vineyards and a pizzeria in Coleman... https://www.ranchopizzeria.com/ https://www.rlv.wine/
  5. While the whole story is tragic, there are going to be some motherfucking tales of heroism with these boys and what they did today. Look forward to hearing them.
  6. Yeah. That can't be right It's not. There are many photos from the parapets at ND looking out (usually with a gargoyle) at how far away the tower is. Looking for one now.
  7. The tower is close to 4 miles away from Notre Dame. That seems shopped.
  8. “This Cathedral will be rebuilt”
  9. Such an upgrade. Those are some sharp uniforms.
  10. Manziel was on the Dan Patrick show this morning. Apparently he goes by "John" now - putting the Johnny phase of his life behind him, he said. DP asked him straight up why he was kicked out of the CFL and Manziel spun some stupid ass response, completely dodging the question. Still can't own his mistakes.
  11. My FF based off this bracket: Whataburger, Torchy's, Taco Bell, Popeye's
  12. There's not a year that goes by--not a year--that I don't read about some escalator accident involving some bastard kid that could've easily been avoided had some parent--I don't care which one--but some parent conditioned him to fear and respect that escalator!
  13. Ja'Jaberwoky McBleazy
  14. Charlie Weis gives a double thumbs up, https://moneyinc.com/charlie-weis-paid-65-million-not-job/
  15. Dammit - thank you! I couldn't remember who she reminded me of... annoyed the fuck outta me for a couple days.

  17. It’s made F1 a lot more interesting to me because the on-track product just isn’t that interesting right now. Having storylines and back stories has given me reason to watch.
  18. What a bunch of fuckery. Thanks for that info. Passed along to my Houston family and friends.
  19. Another rec for Love, Death, and Robots. Three episodes in and really digging it.
  20. Well dammit. Guess I need to kick his ass and nail his wife.
  21. Friend’s photo from downtown today...
  22. There are some absolute gems on that Dallas County list. Some of my favorites... Marquavious Pullom Ragan Cleckler Ja’Nautica Jones Jakhiren Olds Nikierra Tabb Ja’reione Melton Precious Vaughn Kamari Youngquist Trey Vickery Steven Smith, BYU (seriously, he's on the list)
