  1. New thread title when he gets the GOP nom
  2. Son, and I'm just going to tell you this one time. You want to keep posting here, stay off the drugs.
  3. One more week til the cold front comes
  4. I drove by a Jazzercise studio at Lakeline. So this hits close to home.
  5. I've been a big Genesis fan ever since the release of their 1980 album, Duke. Before that, I really didn't understand any of their work. Too artsy, too intellectual.
  6. He’s lost some ability. Not the same actor, nor as interesting in roles. Peaked with Moneyball and GOG about 10 years ago. He’s cashing checks. A high-budget, Indiana Jones tv series would kill it. Start off with Dr Jones worrying about tenure, fighting off co-eds in the 20’s, then send him to Morocco by way of Vienna. No need for fan service or pandering when you got a badass PhD with a bull whip runnin around.
  7. Its odd to reply to Derka’s premise seriously. But, if a human being is never offended, then they might have a mental disorder. They could have one or more of a variety of disorders where they feel nothing or are disassociated from reality. Having a trained response to suppress or mute a response, could be normal at times. And is probably what we all have to do on a regular basis as a coping mechanism. Some people get offended, suppress a response, and commit self harm or react poorly at a later moment. It’s where therapy can help, so a person can deal with frustration more directly and effectively.
  8. When Longhorn great Stanley Richard was asked what car he drives, he replied emphatically, “Sheriff’s gotta ride a Mustang!” Maybe he now has kids to take to soccer practice.
  9. That goes (out the window) without saying.
  10. Just exercising their freedom of speech
  11. John McClane wasn’t really a police officer. A man by the name of Bruce Willis pretended to be a police officer for a fictional moving picture show. You see John McTiernan, a man employed to lead a group of camera, light, and sound technicians, asked Willis to pretend to be a police officer for the film and Willis agreed. But not until after Willis could confirm with McTiernan that he knew Willis was not really a police officer.
  12. The virtual mama / BJ beatdown back to bakc was epic. Very well done. BJ’s lucky to be alive Actor playing Stephen deserves an emmy
  13. Last year in Europe, deaths above normal attributed to heat wave = 60k.
  14. You know you’re reaching a new low when an adult with the handle “safe sex” correctly calls you out.
  15. 85 during the day? Thats basically what our house is with no AC
  16. When asked about fixing his mechanics, Ewers replied, “Would that it were so simple.”
  17. I’m not asking for a Ted Cruz / Buffalo Bill tuck dance gif
  18. APD has always had the boys in the crime lab working in shifts to solve theft cases and review camera footage, especially around sketchy liquor stores. My security service is advise clients to watch The Wire to demonstrate how cities can win the war on crime, poverty, and homelessness through being tough on crime and shuffling poor people through the criminal justice system.
  19. Is this y’all’s solution to homelessness?
  20. Homelessness is a regional and national issue. Granted some Austin policies have compounded the problems. But having cities each come up with their own solutions for mental illness, broken foster systems, immigration, drug addiction, poverty is inefficient and bordering on absurd. Moreover, some jurisdictions’ solve their own homelessness problem by putting them on a bus to another jurisdiction (the old Rambo I policy). Further, why would state and federal politicians want to attempt to solve homelessness when it’s incredibly complicated and gives them fodder to win re-election by being tough on crime and ridicule local city policies on an issue that’s nationwide and regional dealing with populations (long-term homeless) that typically move around? I don’t know how many mentally ill and termed foster kids have been released on the streets of Austin, but at times, it’s been significant.
  21. This all started with talent comps from this upcoming offense to 2008/09, not Colt’s freshman year. I’m excited to see improvement in our passing game, but its way too soon to crown our receivers (an average unit in 2022 and sometimes a weakness) or Ewers. Neither would I write them off.
  22. I didnt make up the catchable balls stats, but cant find link because I heard it on the radio. That stat was in reference to outside catch radius (so overthrows and underthrows). We were not Top 100 in overall catchable balls, including Card. Or maybe we were in the 90’s. The offense relied on Bijan and the threat of Bijan and some nifty scheming. Bijan being our best back since Ricky in my opinion, even above Benson (who worked among a more talented offense). So it was a decent offense. But the passing game underperformed and could not be relied upon. In context of my opinion that Ewers does not deserve to be compared to Colt since he’s not in the same ballpark as one of the greatest QBs in CFB history, I think its premature to compare the two and believe its not unthinkable that Ewers could be a bust and get benched. Is it likely? I hope not. But he hasnt done more than show flashes.
