This is incorrect. Our last loss at night at Pyle was 2007. My freshman year.

Definitely not defending it at all. I think it’s a horrible pick. Plenty of prior presidents have made appointments to unqualified individuals. See above. Not at all. I’m here with my popcorn.

It appears that democrats have entered the 7th stage of grief 8 days post election.

How do you recommend working up to IM bike distance? How often do you bike in a week and what distances/exertion level?

Quinn to all you bitchasses:

I can see it making sense. There must be a lot of overlap in the engineering curriculum (I’m not an engineer so correct me if I’m wrong). When I was at McCombs, there was so much overlap with finance as an accounting major that the admin didn’t even allow for a minor in finance.

Which marathon are you running?

Noted and fair point. The repealing of Roe has essentially taken the issue off the federal level and regulated it to the states, where it should be in my opinion. Vote in local and state elections to have your voice heard. Trump won multiple states that ratified abortion (states you noted). To me, this shows that there are national issues that should be addressed at the national level, and state issues that should be addressed at the state level. It’s a brilliant move by the Republicans as it completely becomes irrelevant in national election. Trump has said multiple times that he will not institute a national abortion ban. If people want to be around like minded people, move to NY, CA, MN…states that allow for abortion up to point of birth (which is mind boggling to me). The fear mongering MSM has done this election cycle is outlandish. In the end, I think the majority of Americans are fed up with being told how to live. The government, particularly the federal government, just needs to leave us the fuck alone and let people live their lives, not tell us how to live.

The majority of Americans don’t agree with the issues that the democratic party chose to focus on in this election cycle. Those issues (abortion, LGBT, government intervention in everything) are the cornerstone of the Democratic Party. Say what you want, but the majority of country wants to put their family needs like grocery prices, border security, illegal immigration, and simply have the “American dream” that their parents had. These things are seen as unobtainable with the current regime. When you segregate your entire electorate to ethnic, gender, class, and generational groups and don’t broadly approach eligible voters, you alienate the majority of Americans. People calling the electorate uneducated, misinformed, misogynistic, racist, is what got democrats this result. The Republicans pounced on that and built their campaign on appealing to the broad electorate.

Wife and I are running the Bryan/College Station half in December and I don’t have an event planned after that until March. I’m looking at Chattanooga or Florida 70.3 in May. We’re moving next month and marathon training would be tough for January Houston full.

Nice man. Welcome!

I sincerely hope you enjoy more information of what you’re putting in your bloodstream.

I guess ignorance is bliss to some.

Honest answer: your guess is as good as mine. I’m not a doctor but I believe the flu shot is dead flu strains that the CDC believes will be the predominant strains based on cases in Australia or southern hemisphere countries. These dead strains are added to the base vaccine and administered accordingly. Again, no idea exactly. But we will find out soon enough and that’s exciting.

Let’s not read an article when you can hear what he has to say (don’t know if posting links to X is allowed?, if not, sorry):

Yeah, fuck those working class people.

This strategy started in 2012, not 2016.

“He says, ‘If you give me the data, all I want is the data, and I’ll take on the data and show that it’s not safe,’” Lutnick said. “Let’s give him the data. I think it’ll be pretty cool to give him the data. Let’s see what he comes up with. I think it’s pretty fun.” It appears that RFK wants the data on vaccines to show and inform the American people on what they’re actually putting in their bodies. RFK has said multiple times that there are good vaccines out there but the data is being gate-kept by the CDC and FDA.

Link?

I use Gu for training as they’re relatively inexpensive. For race day, I splurge and do Maurten (if it’s a running race). They’re about double the price. I typically don’t race with water and Maurten go very easy on the stomach and don’t require water. Hammer just tears my stomach up.

Been battling what I think is Covid for the last week or so. Just overall felt like shit. Today was really the first day I felt normal. I’ll probably go for a run in the morning. It’s been a week since I’ve run and I’m itching to get back out there.

Houston Half this morning and set a PR of 1:43:09. Not bad.

Good luck man. Bandaids just don't work for me and fall off due to chest hair. I use NipEaze from amazon and they work magically.

I sold probably 80 ounces of silver over the past month. I'm going to hold the rest and see where it goes.
