  1. Thanks again for the hospitality! Was great to meet you, and as always, a great way to kick off the day.
  2. @pch stuck in DFW for an extra day, I'll probably be at Harbor for the 7 am meeting tomorrow. Went to Chicago group (in Dallas) last week to see some conference friends. That's a cool hybrid speaker/podium group. Sunday I hit 13 years. Grateful for that.
  3. I'd like to amend my answer. If your family and friends are telling you the bride is bad crazy rather than good crazy, you should listen.
  4. Things were different back then. You had to accelerate the timeline because General Washington needed you to join the cause, right?
  5. Now that I've had time to think about it, I wish that soulless motherfucker would come canvases my new neighborhood. (jokes on him, he can't. I've got a gate.)
  6. Don't worry, your starter Marriage will provide excruciating, expensive lessons.
  7. Omg so during normal times DFW to BPT (Beaumont) on AA is dependable. But SE TX gets really foggy this time of the year. Thursday night’s 10:35 pm flight gets boarded, pre-flight Diet Coke, captain says pushback imminent. Then “folks there’s a weather hold due to fog” so I fire up Concur and grab a bed at the Westin. Sure enough, 11:30 the flight is delayed til 6:30 am and we deplane. Uber, crash for 5 hours, Uber, go home. This has now happened twice in 18 months, out of around 25 commutes to DFW. I think I’m going to just start driving to IAH which is an additional hour as a hedge, plus there are more flights. It's all on the company dime but I was exhausted Friday.
  8. Covey’s henchmen in MAGA hats out to primary Phelan. I almost punched that idiot when he came up while I was cleaning out my old garage. “But Phelan works with communist democratz!1!1!!!!” Dumbass.
  9. Damn what an ending. Incredible. Good game y’all.
  10. One should only get married when it’s the only remaining course. Run the idea by your best friends, siblings, parents, etc. if any of them have objections, hear them out. They see things we don’t. Pussy can blind a man. Do your parents and her parents get along? Your family is marrying her family. She will become her mother. Think about what being married to her would be like. Live together first. For at least a year. Getting married is a hell of a lot easier than divorced.
  11. After the season I’m getting several Texans jerseys autographed with personal inscriptions to frame for my man cave. CJ and another. Hooked it up today. Oddly, with a few other helmets and balls from notable Texas-area players, I also have a personalized autographed Leroy Neimann print from Nick Lowery, the former Chief’s kicker.like this one
  12. In34. Had to go back to windows, my Mac experiment lasted a few awful months.
  13. I just always assumed it was a catch all phrase referring to NASA suppliers like Lockheed Martin, Morton Thiakol et al.
  14. Wildcard losses are now the Cowboys ceiling.
  15. _an Quinn I didn’t say it was right, just that it is.
  16. They get zero plus a second to get the play snapped. It’s well documented.
  17. And good teams find a way to fight through the holds and still win. It’s uncanny.
  18. Oh my wife has jokes. Tua just threw it into the stands and she exclaims “Intentional crowding!”
  19. Wheelhouse, circa 1994. https://www.reddit.com/r/Weird__Video/s/hXkfKORVq1 Spoiler: $10k boobs but SFW Well, not too SFW.
  20. Just moved into my new house. I finally have the sunset I’ve always coveted. That is parkland so no development threat. I mean, it’s not beachfront cali, but it’s manageable. I think that’s pretty cool. (Sorry about the dirty window)
  21. Talked to my locker room source yesterday. (Former SEC D player whose nephew is a defensive starter). Demeco’s first year hasn’t been without growing pains. It’s been a challenge to keep the defensive players, coordinators, and position coaches on the same page, and there have been times when the HC has felt “shown up” by a player or coach who was showing leadership initiative. To his credit, he’s self aware enough to recognize when he needs to address and even apologize when things get heated. It’s cool seeing the maturation from a player’s perception. I will say that if the secondary blows a coverage or miscommunicates and gives up a big play or score, that gets analyzed at all levels and used as a learning opportunity. What we as fans see as somebody missing a coverage or tackle and think “so and so sucks or is a bust” gets the microscope in the film room with coaches and players discussing what look they were seeing, what to watch for, what instinct to trust. It’s fascinating. Oh, and I passed along our love for Hannah.
