  1. We are taking a fairy from Mallaig. We will be renting a car and driving from there. it looks fun, and he is the most excited about playing this course than anything. Thanks to everyone for the suggestions,Ill post pics from the road.
  2. Son just graduated Clemson and is going to Europe for a couple months before the real world starts. I am meeting him in Scotland in January. The plan is to fly into Edinburg on Friday and rent a car to head straight to St. Andrews. Spend Saturday in St. Andrews and on Sunday walk the Old Course and then leave. The plan is to go to Inverness for a couple days. Do a Whisky tour from Inverness and then head to Isle of Sky, hike old man Storr and the fairy pools. My son is a golf whore, so he found a course he wants to play on the Outer Hebrides called Askernish. Then we plan to spend the night in Glencoe and finish for a couple of days in Edinburgh. Anything i am missing? Is three days in Inverness too much? Am I spreading ourselves too thin? Is Glencoe worth more than a day ? Any Food/Bar recs. I’ve made a list of some of the places mentioned here. Thanks in advance.
  3. He was also an accomplished acting coach. He made Tobias Funke who he is. RIP
  4. Looks like we will be seeing a lot more of these. Itkin and Arnold just won $2.5 Billion in a Round-Up lawsuit (link below). Even if I disagree with the litigation, hopefully they put a little into the TOF. https://www.inquirer.com/news/philadelphia/roundup-philadelphia-verdict-monsanto-bayer-jury-20240129.html
  5. Edit Ricky's one hitter answered my question.
  6. Gen X here, born in 72 graduated high school in 90. I agree that Breakfast Club is probably the defining HS movie, but when I watch it now, I root for the adults. Those kids deserved to lose one Saturday for detention. If my son duct taped some kids butt cheeks together he probably would have been in detention for the rest of the year. And, they would have come back the nest week and write another paper if they thought they could get away with forcing the nerdy kid to write one for everybody. Favorite HS movie was Say Anything. Still holds up.
  7. https://breakingt.com/products/texas-football-tvondre-sweat-pose?gad_source=1&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIo-Lm6MLYgwMVsSzUAR1WdQG9EAAYASAAEgJ8gfD_BwE Edit Someone beat me to it.
  8. Got this for the wife. This happened right in front of us at the Big 12 Championship. She loved it.
  9. I graduated from Westfield in 1990. Not sure when those guys would have, but the names dont ring a bell.
  10. Octavious went to my hgh school (Spring Westfield). He was a freshman when I was a senior. Really sweet kid, I was happy to see he got his doctorate and found success after college. I think the story was he couldn't read when he got to high school. The coach at the time was Emory Bellard and he helped him out as a freshman.
  11. Wedding Crashers, after they get kicked out of Christopher Walken's mansion it turns into a love story/less funny movie.
  12. I agree. Like the briefcase in Pulp Fiction. We may never know. Biggest question for me is the familial relationship.
  13. Finished watching this last week. Didn't want to spoil it, so stayed away from this thread until today. Not much to add, this was such a great show from start to finish and the acting was incredible. I was wondering how everyone was related. I know Fak and Ritchie were friends of the Berzattos, and Ritchie was basically raised by them. Is uncle Jimmy a real uncle and was it Jamie Lee Curtis's brother? It seemed like he would be the dad's brother if it was a biological relation. I know Mulaney and Paulson were married, but was Paulson another Aunt or cousin of Carm/Mikey/Sug? Unless i missed it, i don't think it was mentioned why Ritchie's wife left him and what happened to the dad.
  14. This, Chappy isn't entertaining. I think Dan is just annoying everyone. I skip him when he comes on.
  15. Coolest thing I’ve seen at a game. Sark won me over lforever.
  16. Who was made more fun of as a kid. Bo Nix or Micheal Penix I say Penix.
  17. She looked good in Silver Spoons too. She was a favorite of young Mr. Shumway.
  18. Texas - 41 OSU - 14 Rushing yards 250
  19. I love watching this video, but I cringe when Tucker gets horse collar tackled by his own teammate. I always think his leg is going to snap and end his career before it even starts. The dog pile is one thing, but you cant h roll up his legs from behind.
  20. Texas 56 Tech 10 715 yards passing.
  21. From an interior facing office on the 15th floor of our building in Addison. Fight !!
  22. I've pretty much given up on the Ticket after 20 years of listening. The Musers are fine, but I really only listen to the Gordo segments . I can't take the Hardline anymore even though I really like Dave Lane. Drive to work is Muse in the news on the app and the drive home is the Dumb Zone.
  23. Re-thinking my decision to drive to the game from Dallas in the morning. TEXAS !!!
