  1. He's all over the place! What an asshole! Me and My Uncle was a ripper.
  2. Feels Like a Stranger is super synthy. Then, it slams on the breaks with FotD. Would have liked a little more momentum, but I'm going to shut up, listen to this, and remember good times. edit: This is painfully (heroin?) slow. edit2: Not I.
  3. Truth, in Houston, is pretty good supposedly. Toward the end of your drive though. Safe travels.
  4. One track in, and this show is hitting hard. But that's as far as I've listened.
  5. My kid was at Blanton. I didn't tell him about my relative palace at Towers in the 90s. He likes his roommate. Mine was awful. He wins.
  6. 2016 and 2017 were rough. We lost Prince, Bowie, and Petty. I think we were probably going to get some good music out of all of them. Also, this country hasn't been the same since then.
  7. A friend of mine, whose wife is a school teacher (citizen who immigrated from El Salvador) said 150 of her school's Latino kids didn't show up on Monday, presumably scared to come to school.
  8. On the "password only" front, if you are going to lose your phone to LEO, make sure to wipe your sleeve across the screen a few times. Pretty easy to see pin unlocks from greasy finger smudges on the screen.
  9. Frank Zappa. It probably wouldn't have seen commercial success, but he had more music to make.
  10. I had a dead line of pixels on my Hisense a few years ago. They were very responsive and, after a few weeks, I got a replacement. But before that, they sent someone out to take a hammer to the screen of the old one so there was no chance of it being resold. It was a process, but I got it replaced.
  11. Agree with this. I posted the thread about halfway through.
  12. As someone who generally avoids "the news" these days, I had higher hopes for Surly as a source.
  13. So apparently, he's still alive.
  14. I agree that the Departed gets better upon rewatch(es). Goodfellas still is the greatest, although I love Godfather (1&2).
  15. We'll all be eating old gym mats and drinking malk by then.
  16. I think I read "on hold for 30 days," which likely is a not.
  17. Either way, so long as it's toxic to manufacture and terrible for the environment.
  18. Nothing like a petroleum-based wardrobe during a hot Texas summer.
  19. He was 63 when I was born. My sister and I talk about how we (11 years apart) got different versions of both of our parents. He was definitely around more when I was a kid than with any of my siblings who got him while in full career mode.
  20. Well, then I go and copy-pasta it. If it's any consolation, the Houston Chronicle messed up my dad's obit. Instead of his place of birth being listed as Deadwood, SD, they wrote Deadhead. We actually got a chuckle out of that one.
  21. "Somos millonarios.”
