  1. I have a business meeting on Friday that includes an offer of a free lunch. No plans to eat before then. If I skip that meal I’ll break on Saturday too, either breakfast in Houston or lunch at the tailgate in Austin. Bernard
  2. It's 6:20 PM on Tuesday and I haven't eaten since Sunday night. Who will break first, Al or me? I just slammed an ice cold Topo Chico. Bernard
  3. My diet has been "standard" for only the past 30 days, which started with the first Texans pre-season tailgate party. Most of 2018 has been anything but "standard". I was going to be drinking every weekend during football season anyway. The change is what I'm eating (nothing) and drinking (water) during the week. Bernard
  4. If you want insurance, buy insurance. If you want to invest, invest. Don't mix the two. Bernard
  5. Yes. I'm guessing that extended fasting gets much harder as your BF% gets lower. Fat asses like Al and me have a lot of stored energy just sitting around waiting to fuel our bodies. Mr. Drummond had a bunch too, but not so much anymore. Just like Al. I've done three meals a day low calorie for weeks on end. Fasting is far easier IMO. The results are fast as fuck too. Bernard
  6. My fasting routine has been pretty much shit for the past month. I’m officially back in business now. My plan for the football season is fast Monday through Friday (or as long as I can) and then enjoy some cold delicious beer and some reasonable amount of food on the weekends. Seems doable, of course today is only Monday. Haven’t been on the scale in a while. Bernard
  7. All he has to do is ask JC for forgiveness and he’ll get everlasting life in Heaven. Sounds like you’re confusing him with Jew, Muslims, Hindus, Buddhists, atheists, etc. Bernard

    If you like it, why are you complaining? Bernard

    1. Train your dog not to go ape shit. 2. Crooks knock on doors too. They want to make sure you're not home before breaking in and stealing your shit. Bernard
  10. That's a nice way of saying "cops condone criminal activity of their fellow cops". I heard somewhere recently that there was a Miami Police Department class of cadets back in the 1980's were every single member of the class eventually ended up with a felony conviction on their record because they were all actively involved in the cocaine trade. No idea if it's true or not. Bernard
  11. When you get to Istanbul, eat here: https://www.yelp.com/biz/sarnıç-restaurant-istanbul Restaurant is located below street level in a 3,000 year old room that was part of the city's underground water storage system. Bernard
  12. Seriously. I'd commute in from somewhere else. Huntsville? Brenham? Somerville? Bernard
  13. Someone did a study of the Denver PD some time back. Over some several year time period, dozens of Denver cops were arrested for DWI. Cops drive drunk. No surprise there. The insightful stat however, was that 100% of the Denver cops arrested for DWI were involved in vehicle accidents before their arrest. Not one single cop was ever arrested for DWI after a traffic stop. Statistical proof that Denver cops were letting drunk cops off the hook for DWI as along as they didn't actually crash into another driver thereby involving civilian witnesses. Bernard
  14. Supply. Demand. Oligopoly pricing power. How much will the market bear? It really comes down to value. The $1/day over two years argument is legit, especially since most folks pay for their phone over time. What else can you buy for $749 that provides more value? Bernard
  15. Cheaper than two Texas football season tickets. Bernard
  16. It's worth more than you think because there are people out there who have the time, tools and expertise needed to get your vehicle up to snuff for a whole lot less than you'd spend doing the same. They'll buy your car and fix it after hours with junkyard parts at the auto shop where they (or their brother, cousin, etc.) already work(s). Then they have a good ride at a sweet price. Win Win. Bernard
  17. Did she turn on her blinker to alert the shoulder-driver of her intension to turn? Something tells me she didn't. Then again maybe she did and the shoulder driver just sucks at driving. I'd just make sure that your insurance company knows that you disagree with anyone who thinks your daughter is at fault. In the end though, it's not going to be worth fighting over. How's your daughter's back feeling since the crash? I bet it's starting to hurt. Bernard
  18. I love me a big screen iphone. Xs Max has my name on it. Bernard
  19. To late to edit, but just realized I moronically left USC out of the thread title. Bernard
  20. As the title says, I have two extras for USC game. Section 26. Row 61 (of 80). These are east side, north goal line, more like minus 3-4 yard line. $200 each. Can deliver in Houston area. Bernard
  21. ‘Everything” is right I sat next to him at a football game in Manhattan, Kansas several years ago. He told me on his drive from Austin to Kansas that he crossed a river where Texas Crew was involved in a boat race vs one or more other schools. He stopped his car along the I-35 bridge that crossed the river hosting the race just so he could cheer on the rowers as they rowed their boat under he bridge. Then he jumped back in his car and resumed his drive to Kansas. Bernard
  22. ....and still counting. Nice to see him honored on the Adzillitron during the game. He also has an insane baseball streak going. Hoops too I think. Not to mention other sports. Dude has gone full fanatic. Makes me seem so much more normal. Bernard
