  1. Doug Lewin is a very smart guy. Love reading his newsletter.
  2. Are you employed by Amazon and have you been pooping on people's porches and lawns? https://www.fox7austin.com/news/amazon-delivery-driver-pooping-on-porch-video
  3. I thought he was going to A&M or OU. That's gotta sting those programs a bit.
  4. It's an old-time country singer affectation. Ray Price, Roy Rogers etc ....
  5. .... on May 8, 1975, the Red Headed Stranger rode into town.
  6. Yes. If you want to see what the glasses can do, click here. He took this photo and the succeeding ones with the glasses. Just click the arrow on the right side of the photo. He must have been looking in a mirror when he took the first one. You can see the little camera on the frames. I should also point out that these glasses came out in 2023, so an upgrade version should come out this year. Also, there are a number of better glasses coming to market. Samsung has a pair that apparently are fantastic.
  7. True. His willingness to consort with the likes of me is proof of that.
  8. He is many things, but a shit bag is not one of them.
  9. On the plus side, the Meta glasses are pretty cool. My friend Tony is a river guide in Terlingua and he got some so that he can broadcast live while he's on the river with the glasses + Starlink (I know ... Elon) and still have both his hands free. I am pretty impressed with the quality of the photos he's taken with them. He said they're about to come up with a new iteration that should be even better.
  10. I thought the movie was fine but 1) it was so loud at the IMAX I saw it at (Barton Creek). This is becoming a recurring theme for me in movies that I see in theaters. I've quit going to the Alamo because of the chaotic screeching, especially in the previews 2) it was so loud that I ended up putting crushed up napkins in my ears as makeshift earplugs. This caused me to not catch a bunch of the dialogue. I'm going to have to wait to see it at home with subtitles turned on. Also, you kids get off my lawn.
  11. Baker is 6'1, 200 .lbs and has run a 10.61 hundred meters.
  12. My theory is that Kleya is actually a young Princess Leia operating undercover.
  13. Just rewatched their highlight videos. Lott and Finley are both DAWGS.
  14. Never mind ... saw the end of the video.
  15. I was just thinking that the Simms/Applewhite controversy was sort of dying and that we needed a new controversy to beat into the ground for the next 22 years.
  16. I would actually pay for this.
  17. About 35 years ago I went to visit an old German girlfriend in Hamburg for about 10 days. She was just moving into an apartment ---- her first "on her own" apartment. It was really just one room with a small bathroom attached. I'd say it was about 400 square feet and had a murphy bed that pulled up against the wall when she wasn't sleeping. So we went to Ikea to get her furniture. I'd never been to Ikea or even heard of it and was rather amazed. They had all kinds of this modular furniture. We bought a ton of it and they delivered it the next day. We spent a couple of days assembling it all and it was rather cool, how they were able to cram all of these modular things into one apartment. Of course, it was mostly particle board but it looked a lot like this photo. A few days later another friend from southern Germany came to stay with us for about a week. She walked in, took a look around, and said "Ikea?" It just had that look. Then all three of us spent the next week sleeping together in that one bed. Good times.
  18. Casters. I have been putting casters on every heavy piece of furniture at my studio in Bartlett and I'm wondering why I didn't do this on very piece of furniture I've ever owned. Holy Toledo!. I don't care if they look stupid, I'm rolling this stuff around like I'm Speed Racer. I've convinced myself that casters are the greatest invention of all time after the wheel, which is sort of a caster. I like casters so much I'm thinking that, if you have a heavy piece of furniture that you would like to roll around the house and if you buy the casters and the beer, I'll come over and put those bad boys on for you. That's how much I like casters. Casters, man.
