  1. I bought a lightly used pair of Lange's, and also got some Surefoot fully molded foot inserts and liners for about $1,000. Very comfortable to wear and ski in, but very tight and hard to get on and off, which makes sense since its molded. You obviously ski alot considering your posts so might be worth looking into.
  2. I don't know, but I love that video. There had to be a lot of "what the fuck" going through that bear's head before he took a header into the ground.
  3. Can I fuck her doggy, I mean wolf style? Is husky her voice? Can I pee in her butt, I mean her corner? So many questions.
  4. So any kid friendly activities during Mardi Gras Galveston. Otherwise just cleaning the place for the spring/summer.
  5. Awesome thread, been considering getting into leatherwork, mostly to make watch straps. Haven't found the time to pull the trigger yet but really appreciate this thread.
  6. She British. This is what they do. He hates furners. That said having butter sit out so it can be spread is fucking awesome. (Another British/Euro thing) Butter in the fridge is for the ignant. DEAR BUTTER WARS: Cut that stupid bitch loose.
  7. Bullshit by Kuchar. His image is the good guy. Why stiff a guy with a bullshit 1k adder when you just won 1.3m. Fuck me, you're worth 100M, give the guy 100k and change his life and his kid's lives. You probably get an extra $10M in endorsements for that 100k investment.
  8. They were good at basketball in the early and mid-90s. We won 5 games in football when I was there.
  9. Seems like a typical WB ordering experience.
  10. Give it enough time for teachers to actually learn how to effectively teach it and then give it enough time to be implemented for kids to progress through the entire program and then measure. Are they better at math as a whole than they were before? I'll put up money they are better with CC. Understanding is better than memorization. It's math.
  11. That's good to know. Sounds like it's going to be pure luck.
  12. Funny because I'm an engineer and can do crazy math in my head but usually it's because I see it in a different way than how I was"taught"which was memorization. I just can't see how it's a bad thing to teach kids different ways to understand concepts instead of memorization. Maybe that's why I don't actually do "engineering" and pure design work is getting outsourced to India. My job requires actual thought, not running calculations. I think it's better to have kids understand concepts and figure out the most effective way for them to do it that makes sense for them. Or we can have them memorize a bunch of shit and never have them think.
  13. That could be. Teachers aren't necessarily going to be good at teaching.
  14. So in a society (the United States) that is increasingly dependent on "services" and "knowledge" you are against trying to install additional knowledge and aptitude in a seemingly critical skill?
  15. Is your career based on understanding rather than memorizing? That's what it's trying to do.
  16. The question is more how to structure and to whom the donation needs to go to ensure acceptance. Currently seems to be a random lottery for anyone who applies that makes C's and above. I'd think they would want a straight A student who excels in several sports and is in GT. Yes a humblebrag, but my daughter is the type of person I would hate if she wasn't my daughter. She'll do great regardless but the open learning is very suited for her organizational skills. If I can make it happen I'd like to do what I can to ensure acceptance.
  17. I was told there would be no maths.
  18. It's like 6figs and dfigs had a baby. Sorry it's that joke is posted above, just tuned in.
  19. She is 11, so at least not an 8 year old. But really if anyone does have any insight or a contact to talk to I'd appreciate it.
  20. Also, great putt but a shit shot on 12. I like Fowler but his mental game is questionable.
  21. Just saw the replay. No reason for him to get the chip that aggressively but any penalty strokes are fucking garbage.
  22. aggy never believes they are as bad as they are, and never as good as they think they'll be. Fify Aggy is never as bad as we think they'll be, and never as good as they think they'll be.
