  1. 2nd Mount Royal. If you're there in July you have a good chance at a great fireworks display or two http://www.montrealinfo.com/en/news/2018-01-29/fireworks-to-light-up-2018 Had a great steak at Moishe's https://www.thrillist.com/venue/drink/nation/bar/moishes Avoid F1 weekend in June unless you like F1, probably couldn't book a flight or hotel anyway at this point. Jazz festival is first week of July.
  2. That race weekend was almost perfect. Ferrari over Merc in qualifying, Botas over Hamilton, mouhahaha. The race even more perfect. Ferrari gonna Ferrari and get out strategized. Verstappen no longer the golden boy rookie, it's year 3, the he's young BS is over. He's reckless. Ricciardo's final stint was sooooo good. Love having Brundle talk about weight transfer when you turn into the corner causing wheel lock and stuff like that instead of whatever inane stuff any other talking head would be babbling. So where does he go next year? The talk is Ferrari but does Vettel really want to get upended AGAIN? Mercedes? Be #2 for a year or so and then maybe take over for Hamilton? Is he a #1 driver? Red Bull seems all in on Verstappen so don't see him staying there.
  3. I always wondered what happened to those we have the largest flag in the state down at our car dealership, flags when they get old and worn out. This woman probably sews a few of them together for cover.
  4. That's clearly the Venetian. Don't know why she's afraid to name them. I haven't stayed at the Venetian for years, but if they will keep my eyes safe from this, combined with more of her weight class (super unlimited) boycotting, then I will have to move them to the top of my list.

  6. If I ever Powerball I will be going Jackie Treehorn style, John Lautner
  7. Paging Vic to the white courtesy forklift http://www.foxnews.com/lifestyle/2018/04/13/plus-size-blogger-doing-bikini-photo-shoot-in-las-vegas-hotel-claims-was-told-to-cover-up.html
  8. Remember when you always won a TRIP TO ACAPULCO on Wheel of Fortune, along with some mink from Dicker and Dicker of Beverly Hills? Recall the cliff divers on Wide World of Sports. Now its largely a no go because of cartel violence. I went to a music festival in PdC 2 years ago. Last year there was a shootout at the entrance to a festival event. Security guards and cartel drug dealers shot it out. Mexico's response? They banned the music festival. This year it reincarnated in Tulum. Ever took a ferry boat out of PdC? You do realize a bomb went off on one of those a month or two ago right? How was that aimed only at drug dealers? It's reallllly naive to think it was safe before its still safe now, it's only the cartels shooting it out, I will be totally safe. Of course I also want you to stop going so condo prices can collapse and I can scoop something up.
  9. Best to pay a little, weed out the Vic POF level at least.
  10. 2004 Porsche museum was a little building about 30 foot wide . You walked down the middle with cars crammed in on both sides. I've been back since then to the new proper museum. Mercedes museum still blows it away.
  11. Don't have one, buying one tonight. I have some O-Light flashlights though that are well made. Am on their mailing list, thus the flash sale notification. This one is 4 times as bright as the TLR1, not as water resistant. It's rated for rain, heavy splash etc. but not submersion. Also freezing it in a block of ice is not good for it.(stupid shit people do on a youtube review). Mine will live on a pistol next to my bed, so submersion should not be a problem.
  12. I would look on AirBNB and or VRBO, for comparables and then check their calendar, how rented up are they. That should give you some idea what you can expect for gross income, and then just figure the expense side and add a lot to that for all the weird ways the renters will come up with to fuck things up. I am kicking around a similar idea. I want to buy someplace in a ski town to live during the hot ass Texas summer, and then rent it during the winter to skiers. To me we are very late in a huge economic boom cycle, rates are going up, not a great time to buy. I'm sure there will be some 20 something set me straight on this though.
  13. FWIW O-light is having a flash sale Friday on their PL-2 weapon light. 6-8pm CST "1,200 lumen weapon light for only $60 with free shipping and a no questions asked 5 year warranty. Need we say more? " https://olightworld.com/led-flashlights/tactical/olight-pl-2-valkyrie
  14. Yeah, been, and it's nice, but.... I LOVE Porsche, and not a fan of Mercedes, but gotta give credit, the Mercedes museum across town is the best car museum in the world. The Porsche factory tour was good circa 2004. We had this tall dark haired hottie in this kind of tight fitting business suit take us around, and all the guys on the line were clearly signalling each other, here she comes again. They probably fired her to get the efficiency back up, because everyone pretended to work but instead staired at her ass the whole time. Was also interesting to see them drinking a beer on their work break.
  15. The problem with UT is you're either Mormon or you are fucked. Hell I think a bunch of the Warren Jeffs people wound up homeless in Hurricane. I mean like teenage boys that got kicked out so he could have all the teenage girls to himself. I have friends in Kanab that are not mormon. They have been there a few years and are still total outsiders despite having a business, active in community etc. And yeah those liquor laws are WTF.
  16. and Silence of the Lambs, Unforgiven, Schindler's List, Shawshank, Braveheart, The English Patient, Fargo, Saving Private Ryan, the Green Mile, and you see why the 1990s seem like the blowoff top for great movies. I don't think in 20 years people are going to be thinking the 2010's were better than the 1990s. Maybe if we go full idiocracy they will be better than the 2030s.
  17. Need to put the wrong score down on his card for the karma.
  18. When Fin is getting his ass kicked by Phasma and all hope is lost and suddenly someone shoots the shit out of everything and saves the day, I totally expected that to be Benicio del Toro. They have rehashed everything else from the first 3 movies, why not a new Lando Calrissian, good guy goes bad but then goes good, and Benicio is a badass in everything he's in. Instead fucking BB-8 pops up. Kinda sums up the movie, incredible waste of potential. The Force Awakens, holy fuck you did a mashup of the first 3 movies. WTF, do you really think there's even a 7 year old that hasn't seen those, that anyone is going into this fresh? But ok fine, whatever, you've set things up for the next one to be cool. Luke training Rey, that should be badass. Getting to see him at full old master Jedi power. Rogue One, hey this is the best Star Wars movie since the original three. Maybe these Disney hacks aren't so bad afterall, can't wait to see what they come up with. And then we get this steaming pile of shit with crazy amounts of huge ass plot holes, stupid ass virtue signaling subplots. (Killing rich people is fun and they deserve to die Casino, I'm looking at you.) and full power Luke is just he can send a hologram of himself across the galaxy, and we assume audiences these days are so stupid we have to show you about 5 times that look this guy is making footprints, this guy is not, hmmmm. Unless the last movie somehow pulls the most amazing rabbit out of its ass, I think my kids will grow up only seeing the first 6 moves. Maybe when they are into the know it all teenage years I will show them the last three, just to show them they are about to embark into a very unfair, evil world, where good does not always conquer bad and big, evil corporations fuck everything up eventually.
