  1. The TRE is a great way to go. Don't like it as much coming back, but in the morning it's a party. Last time we loaded up some tumblers with bloody marys for the train ride. Cop on board walks by, looks over, says "I bet that's not orange juice in there", laughs and walks on.
  2. I have to go into the office Thursday so looks like I'll miss the Angelo's thing but I'm down for an after party at one of our fine nearby watering holes.
  3. $5 for a broken seashell. <noCR> Inflation is out of control in this country!!! </noCR>
  4. I could have sworn Jack Morris did some other dumb ass thing either last year or sometime recently.
  5. I follow the Giants very closely and I could write 20,000 words on how this season is happening. But you don't want to read it. So long story short, (1) great front office moves to get solid guys who fit into the system. (2) great approach at the plate, team wide. (3) veterans having huge bouncebacks (Crawford, Posey). (4) Limiting mistakes. As someone who experienced and never totally got over the 1993 season, I am still waiting for the Dodgers to go 35-5 down the stretch and take the West, but if SF clinches the division I am gonna drink Ft Worth out of beer that night. They're not doing it with a lot of young stars so can't say it's sustainable, but this long into the season it's definitely not a fluke. I like what the front office is doing so hopefully they can continue to compete with the pre-ordained champs in 22 and beyond.
  6. Getting those is always a good reminder to go into your settings and turn all that bullshit off.
  7. How can your takes continue to get even worse? Is your entire Surly persona an Andy Kaufman bit?
  8. Every year I say I am gonna go try some of the new food items, and every year I just end up getting Fletchers and beer.
  9. I see that Rabbit Hole Pub (former VIPs) is open for business. I was surprised this morning to see it open when I drove to work this morning. I see now that it opens at 7am on weekday mornings. Unfortunately on weekends they open at 11, if Google is accurate. If they opened at 7 on Saturday, I would definitely go have a bloody mary on 9/4 to celebrate the first full week of college football.
  10. Nap time? I don't fucking think so. Blam blam.
  11. All of mine are comfort foods, at least for me personally. In no order 1) Texas BBQ 2) Tex Mex 3) Cuban 4) Thai 5) New Orleans
  12. Yeah I think they had their places mixed up. L'Auberge was fine. I think you're required to be on bath salts or crack to enter those places downtown.
  13. Has anyone here eaten at Toro Toro downtown?
  14. I worked there when I was 16. I used to work at the touch tank a lot. Once I put a hermit crab shell in this girl's hand. Once the crab started to poke out, she let out a blood curdling scream and fired that hermit crab shell against the wall. RIP Hermit Crab. It wasn't your fault, dear friend.
  15. Drew Lock is a stupid bitch and he sucks. That's right, I haven't forgotten.
  16. Acorns don't usually start showing up until fall so you may have to wait a while longer.
  17. I was at this game. Syracuse was Top 5 coming in and pregame we ran into one of their fans who was talking the most shit I have ever heard from a visiting fan. I am 70% that guy got his lights knocked out before he ever got to the stadium. After the game, walking down the west side ramps, some old boy yelled out "Texas is BACK!" and everyone roared and cheered. As it turned out, both teams sucked. And Texas was not back.
  18. Fan - TCU at Texas 1983 Student - Pittsburgh at Texas 1995. Maybe the most unremarkable game of 1995-1999. All I remember about that game is that it was hot as fuck and I was pissed that I didn't have Pearl Jam tickets for later that night.
  19. Programs that haven't won a game in Omaha since the Clinton Administration get mileage out of Tuesday non conf wins. They clearly know their place. Good for them.
  20. After he pump faked to 2B he looked to be throwing to 3B with such confidence that I was sure Posey had wandered too far, slipped, etc. Then....wheeeeeeee Classic OH NO....OH YES moment. For me at least.
  21. Wait, you can get tossed in MLB The Show for one of those crazy home run bat tosses / hr trots? Haven't seen that yet.
  22. Something about the duality of man... err, tiger, sir.
  23. Also it's genius that in the first SEC boardroom scene, you have to look around the room to figure out which school is the klansman. Because it could be any of them.
  24. The Kentucky Wildcat cracks me up. He's just there, and really unremarkable. But he has his headband on already. Ya know, for basketball season.
