  1. Dbeasy's Basterdized Surly Chili Finished Product It was decent. Ate it again today on chili dogs. Ran out of grated cheese. Tearing up cheddar pieces had to suffice. Shots of various prep steps The Recipe Spoilered
  2. The players are aware of this sign.
  3. I don’t believe they can unless the players form a union and there is collective bargaining. Not sure.
  4. Dropped usaa after 44 years. Went to Progressive and so far it’s been good. I even had a claim in the first two months because I was hit by an uninsured driver and my rates stayed steady.
  5. What is spectacular is that a Heisman and Maxwell finalist was forced to transfer from OU so that a few shitty QB’s could replace him. Hahahaha.
  6. Listing houses this year was tough because dumb agents with poor math skills weren’t able to analyze recent comps properly so they were listing properties too high (or low in a few cases). In addition, owners had seen houses down the street a year or two earlier sell for high prices. As a result, a lot of stuff was listed too high and sat. With my sellers, I carefully walked them thru the math of appropriate comps and recommended listing prices below nearby properties. But to make sure they weren’t selling below market, I monitored the market in their area for 9 months after they sold to verify my analysis. In every case, nearby properties either didn’t sell, or dropped their prices 10%+ BELOW what we sold for. I can’t emphasize enough how critical it is that you hire an analytical strong math oriented agent. A good analysis is hard to do, and most agents have personality but limited analytical skills. That’s a painful financial combination.
  7. Today I learned one of you degenerates is the father in law to my brother in law. I don’t even want to ask him his user name. I don’t think I could deal with that weirdness.
  8. I’m 60 and I know dude perfect. Are you people living under a rock?
  9. We have always had idiocy and corruption in politics, but the Republican party under Trump has taken it to levels never before seen. I have always placed a very high priority on fairness, competence, and integrity, three traits that are under severe attack these days. It produces a future outlook for America that is bleak. However, I spent 25 years traveling around the globe on business meeting people from over 50 countries. One thing I realized over time is that the US has in some ways followed the path of Europe, but 50-100 years behind. I am hopeful our disinformed population will rise up like European citizens and demand some government and societal reforms to go with our uniquely American culture. If that could happen, the future of America could still be saved.
  10. Dude, did you not watch our defensive backfield in the first few years of Sark? Having talent back there is critical. You can’t fake it with weak CB’s and safeties. He is legit and difficult to replace.
  11. I like the idea of scheduling some lower ranked teams at the beginning of the season to wring out the rotations, work on issues, etc. But it’s stunning how low ranked they’ve gone. How about playing teams in the high double digits or low triple digits, not 200+. It’s ridiculous. And make sure to have 3-4 marquee matchups to improve before sec play.
  12. Im actually surprised he didn’t retire first. It really shows what type of person he is. I understand him not resigning at Texas. He thought he could turn it around. But NC was a retirement job. He’s 73 for Christ’s sake.
  13. The problem with condos is HOA fees. Insurance rates are going thru the roof, forcing major increases in hoa rates, making them financially unattractive.
  14. TexAgs is a textbook example of how peoples’ emotions, insecurities, and jealousies alter their realities so that they can cope with their inferiorities.
  15. Why do Aggie fans believe they are loaded with talent? Do they have some sort of cherry picked data they found? Because, while they do have some talent at some positions, they are really weak at several other positions and with depth. I don’t get it.

    Tex Mex

    Ate at Vaqueros. That place is absolute garbage. Will never step foot in it again.
  17. So I had to delay the chili because we missed our cold weather window. Trying again next Friday. I noticed almost everyone in this thread floats whole serranos or jalapenos. We've always cut up serranos, with seeds, and dumped them in. What is the effect of floating vs dumping them in diced up?
  18. I actually agree with you that it seems like he was being stubborn. I was begging for Arch to come in during the game. But that’s why I’m saying maybe there’s something we aren’t seeing. To your point, when Arch was in games earlier this year, he looked generally pretty good, but did have a few spaz moments. Maybe Sark is seeing more of those spaz moments in practice. I don’t know. It was really weird that he didn’t put him in for at least a series.
  19. I didn’t say he was struggling in practice. I said “maybe”. I didn’t say he shouldn’t play. I simply refuted your point that sark is being stubborn. Maybe he is maybe he isn’t. You said he definitely is. You’re the only one trying drawing a firm conclusion about the situation with no clear evidence. I’m not.
