  1. Finally had some time this weekend to try @NateHitch birria taco recommendation (thanks!). Good stuff. Family gave it a big thumbs up but it lacked the heat I was expecting. Next time I'll add somethin somethin to the meat and the dipping sauce.
  2. Jim Acosta just brought the lulz: "The Star Wars bar of characters continue to file in and out of the White House. The My Pillow guy was seen leaving" .... yadda yadda.
  3. I'll submit two: One is for the combination lyrics and song And lyrics that are a bit more opaque, but the music is the best
  4. Because we have a bunch of dumb, dangerous cunts who vote?
  5. Not until I drink all six, marry them together, then rip them apart behind my head with a screaming AAARRGGHHHH
  6. The song at the end of Step Brothers kicks all kinds of ass.
  7. Will a Windsor fit in that engine bay? Post a shitload more pics as you progress, looks interesting.
  8. I have a weird thing. I can't move to the "like" icon or anything beyond. I move the mouse over and once I get to like it retracts, so I'm limited to the first three. Using Safari. *And just like that, it works again* *on everything but the football and politics board* maybe that's for the best?
  9. I'm the outlier on this one; I liked it. Went in with zero expectations due to this thread, so that helped. Also think it's because I've only watched football over the last two weeks, so the change up probably glossed over the film's issues.
  10. I skimmed the transcript of that Georgia phone call, but finally had the chance to listen to it. Holy shit, the fear and desperation in his voice, in complete contrast to the confident and measured voices of the GA guys, is fucking gold. I smiled and laughed through the whole thing. He's just a monkey throwing his shit around the yard.
  11. I walked past a woodpecker the other day and thought, can that be the dumbest fucking animal on the planet? Sitting on a tree limb all day banging your head against solid wood. You've got wings, dumbass, go fly around, see the world.
  12. When theaters open back up toss some (regular) M&Ms into hot butter popcorn. They'll melt and make a mess but it's fucking awesome.
  13. Why can't I edit that post? I've ben drinking and watching football.
  14. Bullshit. Arm strength is fine. His accuracy is a bit off, but not unusual for a back up without week in/week out game experinece. NFL coaches seems to have limited confidence in him as a QB. So the play calling is the same. I think giving the rigtht OL and game plan, he'd pull a Jim Plunkett, or something close. That ain't happening. Luck of the draw where you end up.
  15. I was looking forward to this. Meh. Comparing it to Bond films, near the bottom. I liked all the time travel shit, and the visuals were cool, but the film kind of dragged, boring in a lot of spots. The three main characters were cardboard cut outs. Branagh was comically bad as a villian. I'm not a movie snob, love action flicks, but if you're going to get me invested in a highly intellectual script, give me some character depth. If not, just give me dumb action/violence.
  16. Certified about 20 years ago. Started my instruction on the Great Barrier Reef and wrapped it up in Maui on the way back home. We dove some spot off Lanai called the "Cathedral", a volcanic room that let's a small piece of sunlight in from an upper chamber that shoots to the sand on the bottom. Pretty cool. What wasn't cool was my final session. This is where take your mask off, put it back on and blow out the water with your nose. Within about a minute of going down I did that. Only half the water came out, so it was still at eye level. Did it again and it barely moved. Instructor gave me the OK signal and started coming toward me. He grabbed my shoulders, looked at my air gauge. Eyes got really wide, like when Dreyfus pulled the tooth in Jaws. We started ascending and I suddenly realized I couldn't breathe, so I pushed him the fuck away and went for the surface. Luckily we were in probably only 30 feet of water off Lahaina harbor, so I made it pretty quick. Got to the surface and he yelled, "You're out of air!" The boat was within shouting distance, he said the same thing. "He's out of air!" His girlfriend, responsible for giving me an empty tank, put her hand to her mouth and probably muttered "oh my god." The jabroni tried to spin it as if it was my fault I didn't check the tank before getting in, while alternatively apologizing profusely. PSA always check your tank before getting in.
  17. Hey man, niiiiiicccee stripe. Seriously that red swoosh really sets off that body color and contours. I like. (Car looks a little lonely in that top photo)
  18. That's helpful, danke I have that same double plug with the red and blue wires. I think I just need to get the radio in and start playing around with it, see what the best connection will be. I put in an extra wire through the firewall in case I have to get power straight from the battery. We shall see.
  19. I have not seen Josh Allen play before. He seems good. Also, this game highlights the intense speed of the NFL game. Not sure why this one jumps out to me; maybe because both teams are good. But damn, on each side of the ball it seems like every player is fast as shit, including linemen.
  20. Remind me what's going on here. That's an original radio rebuilt to modern specs, yes? So you took the new power connection and plugged it into the old A/C and dash light "tie in"? I'm about to buy a new (but retro) radio but have original wiring, so I'd like to have an idea how to power it myself.
  21. Ok let's agree he fucked up early on. Who else beside Fauci can we trust to give us the truth NOW. crickets
  22. A reasonable person might conclude he was pressured by his boss to downplay mask wearing early on. Bad look for him, if so. Nevertheless he's been the only adult in the room for some time.
  23. We're lucky to have Dr. Fauci in this country. He's a rock of factual information. No bullshit, not intimidated, communicates very effectively. Someone like this needs the Medal of Freedom. Might take the stain off of someone like Limbaugh getting one. Ah, who am I kidding. Nothing will take the stain out of that, barring a new MOF Commission demanding he return it or shove it up his ass.
