WTF is a Dunning 42, and what do you get for second place?

7-5 gets us Alamo or Camping World. Dumb hypothetical - 8-4 - what do we get? 9-3? I think 8-4 and it’s still camping world or Alamo. 9-3 Alamo with chance to play in bxiiccg and maybe bounce to sugar - but not likely. I mention all this to say that it seems to me like there are 3 reasonable expectations: 1. Undefeated - play in playoffs 2. 1-3 losses - playoff or a decent bowl 3. 4-5 losses - this is for fun - there’s nothing to be proven - at least let the boys go to Disney world for their outing instead of Northstar mall or Herman Zoo.

How do I get on the list?

The correct answer is Ciclo at the Four Seasons. What do I win?

"You do know I have PTSD, right?"

Sioux City. Airport code is sux. Place made me borderline suicidal.

A lot of those damned games were hard until you learned the cheat. Take Ikari warriors. Sure, once you learned the ABBA reincarnation code you could play all afternoon but try it on three lives. No f’in way. Also Dragons Lair arcade version. I was just giving money away - no idea what I was doing except dropping dirk’s sorry ass down in a pit on the reg.

There's a grocery store downtown called Cosentinos. Go get some of their deli food, or a chipotle burrito next door. Then get some beer. Then go back to your hotel and watch tv. Repeat. Worked for me.

Just the tips: 1. If you look at Disney as a list of rides and experiences and you have to check off each one, on some schedule designed to maximize the number of rides and experiences you have, you sound like a boring person and you're doing it wrong. Look at it this way - Disney wants to entertain you, wants you to think their place is special - not just another amusement park, and Disney is really good at it. Walk around with no-where to go, and just watch your kids. Some of my best experiences are interacting with random characters in the streets (the suffragettes on Main Street, or Cinderella's evil sisters). Talk to them "where are you headed today? Is there any news we need to know today?" They're well trained. They have some random street dance party about once every two hours and my kids got to dance with Aladdin and Judy Hops from Zootopia - they thought it was cool and still talk about it. Disney parks are not just sidewalks that lead to a series of rides, they're more than that and there is something cool around just about every corner, if you have the right mindset. Even the places and people outside the park gates, the ferry rides, the monorail, the workers/cast members. Each is unique and special - try to figure out why/how. It's fun. 2. The Halloween party is the best ticket of the year. Yes, some of the rides are closed and the entire Magic Kingdom isn't open, but you're not some glutton from the long line at wal-mart. You've got a brain and you know you're at the best, family-friendly halloween party in the World. You will see a headless horseman riding a real horse, the cast members come out of their shells a little and act loose, you can get your face painted. They have different characters out at this event that are less common on regular days (more villains, less of the happy peeps). One of my favorite moments was boarding the jungle cruise at the MNSSH in costumes. My family was all peter pan costumes. The guy said "ok, we have tinkerbell, Wendy, Captain Hook and (looking at me with my costume) you must be Captain Ron." It was funny. Again, if you're on the "I want to ride the most rides per minute of anyone in history" agenda, save it - go to Six Flags in Dallas or some carnival in the Burlington Coat Factory parking lot. If you're thinking "how do I have fun at a Halloween Party with my kids?" you'll love it. Go to the Haunted Mansion after dark. They go a little farther for Halloween. 3. Take it easy. Unless you typically walk or are on your feet 12 hours per day, don't try to do it on your vacation. Start early in the morning, take some stuff in. When it gets hot and you lack motivation, go to your hotel, cool off for a few hours and nap, and then charge it again at 3-5 hours before closing. This way you'll have 8-10 quality hours per day. If you don't take a break/nap, you'll basically be a zombie by 1pm, and waste the entire evening. Also, spend one day on your vacation at a hotel pool chilling and having drinks. I cannot stress strongly enough that the breaks, days at the pool and naps will increase your energy level and happiness immensely. I spend 7 days per year there and I keep going back every year, because when I travel there with my kids they provide the entertainment and I get to play along with my kids, and don't have to provide the show.

Here's my advice: Mee-Sen Thai Eatery for ... thai eats. Walk across the street to Nectar cannabis for ... souvenirs. Then take an uber to your hotel and do not try to drive your rented Cadillac Escalade. If the girl named "Rosemary" behind the desk at your hotel has a deepish voice to go with the scarf covering her adam's apple, just keep your clever comments to yourself and check into your room. Portlanders won't understand your uninformed Texas humor. That's all I got.

I though Florida Georgia line was a group of good looking women. Didn’t realize it was dudes.

I watched Jeremy Maclin do it in 2008. Then he got his poop pushed in. I wasn’t mad.

This is correct. It won't be a sprinkler system because the two most common types of fire will be fuel or electrical and water doesn't fix that. My guess is the engine room had some C02 system to put out a fire but it only works if its both maintained, and the door is closed so the c02 can do its work. Galley fire at 3am when everyone's asleep? Unless the cook was slow roasting a roux or something, seems unlikely. Galley fires happen when people are in the galley cooking. My guess is that this is either an electrical fire or some dumbassery like someone left a bright light close to and shining on something flammable. Fuel fire would require first a fuel leak, which would smell like diesel and make everyone sick, before it ignited. Fire spread quickly on main deck and by the time people on lower deck realized there was a fire, their only exit looked like hell's entrance. A decent fire detection system prevents things like this but either they didn't have one, didn't maintain it, or something.

dailymail.com A boat is designed to... Float and not sink. So there aren’t a lot of fire escapes and it’s designed so the openings that might allow in water are few, far between, and narrow.

You get on a boat and they take you to diving destinations to dive. During your surface intervals (the breaks between scuba dives when your body recovers from breathing compressed air under the pressure of the sea depths), they feed you meals, travel to new destinations, and provide you with accommodations for sleep. Then when the time comes, you dive again. I’m sure someone does this out of generosity but in my experience it is generally done for monetary compensation.

I’ll be in Arlington for a kid soccer tournament. Any advice on game watching destinations?

If your bullshit uga mascot thinks he’s number 1, let him say it to bevo’s face.

Questions for the surly medics - re the photo of him on a stretcher going into the hospital. Is that decorticate posturing or is there not enough info to tell? What posture do suicide/hanging victims take?

I didn’t know that the SD had improved, but in about 1998, it was shitty. Unless you have been an overnight resident in the Port Arkansas jail, and appeared still drunk the next day in Judge Neblett’s court to answer for your awesomeness, and been hit with a bottle at sharkeys, and then driven all the way to the flour bluff heb to buy butterflys because the IGA has none, Back up off my port a street cred.

The correct answers are: Nuevo Laredo (outside la zona); Anything in south San Antonio; and The salty dog in port a. Did a flash dance there one night spraying my beer all over my friends and swinging my shirt overhead. When my shirt hit the ceiling fan decades of dust and shit blew all over the shrimpers. Then things got serious. Honorable mention - Most dangerous goes to tie - Mccurtain County Oklahoma and Hull, England. For whatever reason those people really like knives. I would rather try my chances in Mogadishu than there.

I feel like Quintana could have won this tour if his team supported him. I’m an amateur but I was hoping for NQ for the last week. F landa, and Movistar. Am I alone? Missing something? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Doesn’t matter; had sex?

This is why I didn’t go to Harvard.
