  1. I'm at an advocacy workshop with people from all over the country learning/practicing skills to advocate for people with problems. In advocating for my hypothetical client I described him as "lacking paternal influence and role models." Apparently that's not cool anymore because I got the "our world is full of people raised by single mothers, this is not a negative trait." I pushed back with "yeah, but obviously in a perfect world he would have had a father and mother...." That made it worser. Oops. #getoffmylawn
  2. Poors. When my day comes, I don't want rootbeer and Doritos. Throw me a Cooper's beef rib and s shiner prickly pear and send me on to Valhalla.
  3. Me and Zeppo gon’ take some sota chicks to Applebee’s for a seafood dinner.
  4. Just got our schedule - we start tues afternoon and play at least until Friday. This could be good.
  5. Or, you can fuck right off and I’ll wreck shop alone.
  6. I’m at the Marriott downtown until Saturday. Hit me up if you go looking for adventure.
  7. Thanks for the tips. i wish we could have put together the curling. That’s a rare experience for Texans. Soccer tournaments are always such an asswhip. 3 nights at the staybridge suites eating rubber omelette for breakfast for $169 per night. intercontinental is tempting af at $102 per night.
  8. Last minute trip to Minneapolis for a soccer tournament in Blaine. intercontinental hotel in downtown St. Paul and commute or nah? It’s cheap on Priceline. Where should I stay - definitely not stay? anyone have any Schwanns cup tips?
  9. I was at the falcon heavy launch and subsequent landings. Didn’t know shit about musk before that but after watching it - learning how he has advanced what was a stagnant science - I’m a big fan. He’s going to swing and miss some but I like it, keep swinging bro, swing away.
  10. It is frustrating to me that we keep discussing “oxygen.” we don’t breathe “oxygen” on land and divers don’t breathe it underwater. we breathe air. most divers breathe air, and technical divers might breathe special gas mixtures like nitrox, heliox, or trimix. No diver breathes oxygen except when they’re in the ambulance on the way to the hospital after a diving accident. its expensive, explosive, and toxic at depth. the Thai navy seal guy didn’t “run out of oxygen” - he ran out of air. carry on.
  11. I witnessed the performance of oral sex in a Honda Accord parked west of the Stewart beach McDonald’s on Monday of last week. my favorite thing to do in Galveston is go for a 9am run on the Seawall, you’re guaranteed to see something. I guarantee. best beach - joe the umbrella guy in front of the galvez. Best lunch - maceos but overpriced. best dinner - casual bennos, nicer is Rudy paco.
  12. http://www.pbs.org/wnet/pioneers-of-television/video/a-transcendent-moment-in-roots/ Roots > o & a g > iron eagle Jaws 3 and enemy mine are not in the conversation. If I could choose who to have a beer with though, chappy is the man.
  13. Hull England, 1996. imagine being trapped in the movie train spotting, with more tension, anger and violence. everyone wanted to fight. Even the wimmenz. Saw a guy bleeding on the floor after being stabbed in a club. I never went anywhere less than 4 strong and we had to deescalate or sidestep a fight at least once per hour. some mayor type took our group for a walking tour of their downtown. People were heckling and threatening us from the streets and pubs. f that place.
  14. There was a Texas song on the previous board that talked about Farrah fawcet and beating ousux. I like that one.
  15. I always figured toting one less testicle up the mountains was the real advantage. if those German sumbitches weren’t devoted enough to drop a huevo, then they didnt deserve to win.
  16. https://www.yahoo.com/news/ap-newsbreak-us-army-quietly-discharging-immigrant-recruits-042633552--politics.html Not sec ready.
  17. I guess we don’t know their condition either - these kids are cold and tired. Not the best condition for extreme focus for 4 hours.
  18. I’m under the impression that somewhere in the 4 hours they get some surface intervals and breaks. can anyone confirm? If so, maybe they don’t have to change tanks/regs under water? my dad’s girlfriend was my dive buddy for my checkout dives when I got certified in canyon lake. She wasn’t worth a fuck and surfaced from 40 feet like a Polaris missile because “I can’t get my ears equalized.” Divemaster didn’t complain because ... tits. if a 30 year old nurse, who probably understands the science and risks, can’t figure it out, a 12 yo is going to need some luck. Keep the reg in your mouth kid, breathe slowly and keep moving/don’t quit.
  19. Well Schlitterbahn figured it out there Mr. Bernoulli, so It can’t be that hard.
  20. Drilling - What is the depth through the ground? what is the surface like - can you roll some gear i there? what if you collapse the whole damned thing and poof?
  21. I respectfully disagree. I saw a YouTube where a guy built an automatic transmission out of legos. You telling me they can my fit legos in there?
