    Guys, I owe you all an apology. I had Pecan Lodge today and it was every bit as mediocre as everyone has said that it has fallen. Wow. Brisket was a weird texture and miles from what they used to serve. The pork ribs were average and the sausage was okay. I had to use a lot of sauce to get that brisket down. I guess I had Terry Black’s on an off afternoon, but I’d take them off their game then whatever it is Pecan Lodge has become.

    In what you quoted it outlines ways in which one could provoke an attack yet still retain the privilege of both a) self-defense and b) deadly force in self defense. This seems much more germane to the case (is this why you posted it?) and I am not seeing much to support the point that this is why it’s a good legal gambit to say, “If X would never have done Y than Z wouldn’t have happened” especially when you have all these other auxiliary actions (running away, who pointed the gun at whomever first, etc.) that further compound the butterfly effect.

    Not sure creating a fake scenario/hypothetical that would ostensibly have provided a more optimal outcome (proving a negative, as it were) is legally a winning move. But I am not a lawyer. I'm just a caveman, thawed out for your convenience, etc.

    When do we expect the trial to be over and the verdict rendered? I keep thinking it's happening as this thread trends hot, but it's just Onboard and Penelope flirting incessantly for pages on end.

    Well, then explain it?

    Is that good or bad? We are in the part of the simulation where I am confused if ThankYouBrandon is a GQP iteration on LetsGoBrandon or if the left has successfully co-opted and taken back the meme and it's done a 180 to where ThankYouBrandon is a self-referential and wink-wink-nod-nod positive thing for the left.

    I think she's smack on. I was hoping she was going to land the plane and reveal the 6 word slogan, but otherwise great video.

    If the above is true, how is this not a prime example of FAFO? Isn't FAFO a concept and philosophy that shares nearly full bipartisan support and rises above politics? This is why we need to better teach our children to not play stupid games.

    I think Kamala is the classic case of "just happy to be here". Just getting to the Super Bowl is enough of a win that you take your foot off the gas a bit and turtle.

    Happy 52nd birthday to future Governor of Texas, Matthew McC

    Thanks for the thoughtful response. As I said, the brisket in your photo looks miles better than the brisket I was served. I think we generally disagree on ribs because what you described sounds about what I had, but mine was too sweet and overpowering and the sausage was really pedestrian (I never get the jap/cheese on the first trip-- too easy to mask a mediocre sausage with good flavor and I'm trying to judge the sausage on it's own merit).

    Yes, and in case anyone was ignorant or forgot, every 5 mins there is a recording "Per the President's mandate, a mask is required at all times on airport property, etc." I walked for 10 minutes without one on, on accident I just forgot to put it back on after security or starbucks or whatever, and sheepishly remembered and put it on. I wish someone would have given me a subtle signal like if one had spinach in their teeth, so I didn't walk around for 10 minutes looking lower class and vulgar.

    100% agree with you which I stated as "It's just business and facts." I was just commenting about how to people who are already imbalanced or damaged enough to be so inclined, the fact that $36bn in profit is being generated by Big Pharma, is going to set off alarm bells and sirens. It's inconvenient in that way.

    I think what doesn't necessarily help crazy people from reinforcing a belief in conspiracy is when news comes out and headlines report Pfizer raises Covid vaccine sales forecast to $36 billion for 2021 because it sounds like the motive was always in a manifested or manufactured profiting event. But that's just the reality of the pandemic; lots of companies (more than not, as more organizations are not in the travel/hospitality category) have had a windfall. It's just business and facts. But I saw someone said something about how the problem is people don't want to have the power to choose taken away from them and that is why they are against mandates; it's a freedom issue. I came across this blurb in regards to vaccine mandate and Tyson foods and thought this was an interesting perspective on that power of choice:

    Gotcha. I think he was being dishonest by trying to skate the question based on what I've seen. I think being dishonest is different than lying, but we are probably splitting hairs.
  18. DonkeyCigars
    He lied about being vaccinated?

    Sounds like UN Director and Elon should team up together to shame CNN for this horrible ploy then in an ultimate backfire.

    That brisket looks better than the brisket I had. What did you think of the ribs? Do you like that sweet pepper crust? Thoughts on the sausage?
  21. DonkeyCigars
    It's on my reading list. The made-for-streaming treatment was widely panned (and divergent from the book).

    Well...hot off the press today. "China plans to quadruple its nuclear stockpile to at least 1,000 warheads by the end of the decade, the Pentagon reported. That’s far above what was previously estimated."

    That middle class ennui is real.

    You just made a very poetic case for UBI. #Yang2024

    Yea that makes sense and maybe I have some sort of bias due to what you said in the bold, because when I went around the time it opened, there was not very good bbq to be had and so maybe back then it just hit differently. Now we get to choose between "really good and great" (versus choosing between bad and mediocre) and so I'm just spoiled rotten.
