  1. Ads all over the place all the sudden. Did my check bounce?
  2. Trout Street is overpriced for the quality IMO.
  3. Saw it this afternoon in an IMAX theater in Corpus Christi. The sound was unbelievable, like shaking the theater. Fantastic. I did look at my watch a few times towards the end. Great acting and construction of the film by Nolan. Now I need to read up on Oppenheimer some more.
  4. All kidding aside, esplain to me how trading two great prospects to NYM for Verlander and cash is better than signing him in the last offseason to the big cash deal he wanted? Is that wad of cash from the Mets equivalent to the projected salaries of replacement prospects and/or free agents? Or Tuck? Is it a better deal than we would have had in the offseason?
  5. Is #35 available for JV? Or is he going to need to wear #83 or some shit?
  6. Island time. La Playa tonight.
  7. Wordle 769 2/6 🟨🟩⬛⬛🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
  8. Is the Death Star finally out of the shop now?
  9. but, I got #3 right on that French 101 test in 1992! Should have brought my average up to 70.1%!!!
  10. Will be in town on Tuesday next week. Will it be hot, LOL? Coming from Houston, by the way.
  11. I was cleaning out a corner of a closet yesterday afternoon, opened an old leather satchel I used to use, and found all my old expense reports from five companies and 25 years ago. I feel like I’m becoming an old.
  12. Wordle 765 3/6 ⬛⬛⬛⬛⬛ ⬛🟨🟨⬛⬛ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 haven’t posted my Wordle in a while. Lucky guess today.
  13. They're coming for you next, John Sharp.
  14. Read John Nova Lomax's work (aka Maybe A Coordinator)
  15. My sister has been after my mom to move for a few years. House is too big for one person, upkeep is a hassle/too much to handle, maintenance needs done, etc. I'm sure one of the road blocks for my mom is this closet.
  16. Not to belabor this point, but let me belabor this point. You're correct that the article doesn't state who initiated the departure of the interim dean. It could very well be the dean resigned in protest because they treated Ms. McElroy unfairly. It could also be that he didn't complete his full due diligence on the hire in the first place, including making sure that the approval by the Board of Regents was assured, prior to making an offer, then looks like a clown for rescinding the offer twice, as well as a conflict of interest in finally advising Ms. McElroy to stay at Texas. Not defending aggy in any way here, it's just a bad look all around. A similar thing happened to Bill Powers at the end of his UT presidency. He was forced to resign, but stayed with the University as professor in the law school. Make no mistake though, he lost his high profile job.
