  1. I think I am going to start carrying pepper spray and randomly spray people's dogs at HEB.
  2. You will be talking to yourself like this the next day.
  3. The Smiths/Morrissey is the musical equivalent of a Smith machine.
  4. Regarding a Smith machine, the lack of instability and range of motion. Stick to free weights whenever possible. If you can't use barbells then use dumb bells, if you can't use dumb bells then use kettle bells. If you can't use any free weights and someone has a gun to your head then I guess you should use a Smith machine.
  5. I primarily deal with Compsci folks. I've hired people from Stanford, MIT, Cornell, UT, and other places. The two best hires I ever encountered were from Incarnate Word and a dude with a GED. THE UIW grad was recommended to me by a friend who was running a DevOps org at USAA, former military that finished his degree at Incarnate Word. He had a CIS degree not a Compsci degree. That fucker bailed on me after 6 months for a higher paying job at Google. Very talented and ran circles around most people with degrees from more prestigious universities. GED guy was a freak. I was running product architecture for a software security company and he would stroll in looking like a slob and just rip apart our detection methods in dev meetings.
  6. FYI, if your kid scores a 1460 on the SAT they will be automatically admitted into DeVry University. Something to keep in mind.
  7. Posters that are adamant about taking their dogs to HEB.
  8. I spent most of last week fishing with my cousin on his boat off of Port O'Connor. We basically lived off of reds grilled on a half-shell and beer for a few days. He keeps a house in Port Lavaca for fishing trips where we stayed. Some of our other cousins showed up for a couple of days, they are aggy but tolerable. We fished all day and drank beer and played pool in the evenings while listening to REK Jr., Jerry Jeff, Junior Brown, Willie, and Johnny Cash. I'm seriously considering buying a place on the coast and a boat for bay fishing vs the one I use here at Canyon Lake. I enjoy lake life but there is something so much better about being out on the gulf.
  9. I was using the 4 star recruit mentioned above as a reference. Of course the Ivy League is filled with capable athletes , its a D1 conference. But in comparison to the rest of the D1 schools they are pulling from the bottom prospects.
  10. A 4 star ranking might have had something to do with that which most don't have. Everyone I knew that played for an Ivy was a shit athlete but top tier academics.
  11. No. I make my kids do this themselves if they want a gaming PC. Then I criticize their builds afterwards.
  12. Probably tree fiddy in Buddy Bucks. This actually took place at the HEB in the reddit article which is my local HEB. My kid was a member of the high school baseball team that went to the 6A State tournament so he made up for his crimes at the Spring Branch HEB by bringing glory to Spring Branch. They are also the current 5A D1 state champions in football.
  13. Well, one of my kids did pour out dish soap all over HEB as a toddler one time which resulted in a situation like this for an old in the store.
  14. Wasn't this cat on Sabrina the Teenage Witch?
  15. I meant the Nature Valley product. I was curious because granola tends to be pretty sugary. Regarding lactose, that is bad for me or I should say it's bad for people near me. My lactose farts make Briskets Allsups burrito farts smell like potpourri in comparison. I can handle Greek yogurt because of the lack of lactose in it. Thank God for Mootopia, it's the only milk I can stomach. I went years without milk until HEB started selling Mootopia.
  16. Was he young enough to attend Warren? It's a fairly new school. I remember asking if he went to Jay and he said no. It was a long time ago on Shag so I could be remembering wrong. Eh, most Northwest siders are all the same to me anyway.
  17. How much sugar? I just drink coffee with a half a cup of chocolate Mootopia milk before a workout in the morning. I'm caffeine sensitive so some coffee does the job.
  18. It's a fairly recent thing and yes it's being pushed through the evangelical churches.
  19. Yeah, fresh sardines from the Mediterranean are great. I wasn't always a fan. As a kid in Spain, I remember being shocked when my aunt put a platter of sardines on the table. The fish were staring at me and my younger cousin sucked out the eyeballs. It freaked me out.
  20. I think Rocko attended Marshall.
  21. I won't mention sardines or tuna. I had a link of apple chicken sausage, hummus and an apple for a midmorning snack today. Cheese, boiled eggs, grilled chicken breast, a cup of Mootopia, plain Greek yogurt, smoked salmon, are my common go to protein snacks. I keep boiled eggs and grilled chicken in the refrigerator for easy access.
  22. This is probably exercise dependent. I can only speak to strength training and there is the idea that people should take a week off to recover. Personally, I don't schedule any time off. As South Austin mentioned, life often presents time off via vacations, work, illness, etc.. Unless you are grinding away all year long come rain or shine, I'm not sure taking a break is necessary. Sleep, nutrition and proper technique are more important than taking a week off.
  23. Regarding all the "healthy" snacks posts in this thread. Just my two cents here and I've been doing this for decades, I follow a calorie/macro plan. Usually for snacks, I eat sardines and tuna to hit my protein and fat goals. Normally, I lean heavily into protein/fat in the morning and afternoons for my macro goals. When it comes to an actual snack, I don't mess around with protein bars as a snack. If I want an actual snack and have the calories and carbs to spare I eat a candy bar. I'll usually eat a half of one of these. Which is about 250 calories and 12g of sugar amd 70+% dark chocolate. Tastes better than a protein bar and way less sugar than a Snickers.
  24. You are terrible at this. Also, I was a SW regional circle jerk champion in '97 and '98.
