  1. Meanwhile, in Lafayette, LA:
  2. You know, if there any certain acts or things that you might enjoy, now is the time to start calling favors.
  3. I've got the ESPN 4K channel on YTTV, and there are no commercials, nor is there a halftime show. Just a solitary camera angle with muted audio during breaks. It's glorious, and I'm glad I didn't have to reach for the remote and mute the damned tv if I had seen that.
  4. Just wait until tomorrow, where Musk will have a red armband with some kind of logo on his left bicep. It will be dismissed as a "fashion statement".
  5. https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-features/trump-inauguration-2024-win-democrats-failed-1235241327/ EVERYONE WHO WAS SUPPOSED TO PROTECT YOU FROM THIS FAILED MISERABLY
  6. He might think that making cash in America is easy.
  7. The Venn diagram of people who collected Beanie Babies, Dale Earnhardt commemorative plates and Trump shit is a perfect circle.
  8. DC has a 70% or so occupancy rate at all the hotels this weekend. It wasn't going to have the crowd that he has to have.
  9. One of the things that Team MAGA was really looking for in the past month is some kind of excuse to completely shut down the US-Mexico border. The excuse they were going to work with was some kind of disease. I fully expect them to weaponize Bird Flu as the rational.
  10. Just so we are clear. He's bringing a 78 year old (Stallone), an 86 year old (Voight), and a relative youngster in Gibson (69). Yeah, I'm sure that will bring back Hollywood to the Golden Age of something.
  11. No kidding. Non-existent or small, or signage signifying exits that are 1/4 mile away when you first see a sign, etc. On my first trip, I was told (pre GPS days) to take 1-9. I never saw a 1-9 sign anywhere. Or a Frontage Road exit. Or anything of the sorts. In 2003 or so, I actually pulled over on the shoulder and I'm squinting at a Rand McNally while trying to figure out exactly what in the hell I was told, and how it coorresponded with what I was trying to accomplish, and still couldn't figure it out. I eventually went to the airport, walked to a line of shuttle buses, spoke to a driver and followed one that got me to the exit I was trying to get at. If it hadn't been for him, I might still be circling the damn place. Last trip was 2017, and by then, the advent of GPS on everyone's phones and whatnot made it easier, but I still had PTSD.
  12. Fun nerdy fact. I created ringtones for my iPhone from the digitized music from this game. Don't Stop Believing from the Steve Perry mini-game is my current tone. EDIT: Here's 3 of the songs from the soundtrack of the game. iPhone ringtone format, each 40 seconds or less in length. Journey Stone In Love.m4r Journey Don't Stop Believin'.m4r Journey Lights.m4r
  13. I've driven into Manhattan (and the other boroughs) 5 different times now on vacation. It was always a bitch, but I understood what I was getting into before I got there. I hated driving around Newark, however. The various highways, 2 different interstates and whatnot around the airport is a fucking nightmare to navigate. Look at this bullshit:
  14. Well, you see, Eisenhower was a RINO.
