  1. There's some local foods but it's 90% American bar food. If you're on St Thomas, hit Glady's Cafe for local cuisine.
  2. In my first job, the director above my direct manager didn't know I existed. I was at a meeting with him once and he asked what I did for the company. His peer director said, "Steve, he works for you." An hour later, he walked in and gave me a mid-year pay raise. Unfortunately, that was the only time in 25 years, that has happened.
  3. One thing I try to instill in my kids is that if you can't do the right thing when people are looking, how are you going to make the hard decision to do the right thing when no one is looking. This was an easy case of doing to the right thing when people were looking and you failed. I'd take away your electronics for a week and march you back to Costco and give them the $400 back.
  4. There wouldn't be jihadists in the world if everybody could just get laid on occasion. There's a reason why the 72 virgins is the carrot to get incels to kill themselves.
  5. Does his head split open? Two lines of blood appear on the pavement when he hits the ground.
  6. Start early. Especially if you're looking out of state. We did our first tours in OCT of my kid's sophomore year and quite honestly, I feel we are running out of time to get many more in. For us, fall is a wash because of high school volleyball taking up every FRI night so a weekend trip is out of the question. We did miss a match to make that trip to Colorado to tour CU, CSU, and Mines as sophomore because it also coincided with a Monday district day off. I didn't feel like we could it again this year with her being on varsity and the coach being pissy about missing games. Also, official tours don't happen every day and Saturday tour dates are hit and miss. There are usually no tours on spring break or other holidays so you need to miss school or go during the summer. Our summer is already pretty booked but we are going to try to squeeze in a trip to the University of Vermont the day after AISD lets out.
  7. This has always been my favorite guitar solo. Starts at 2:56 and goes for a solid 3 minutes.
  8. I would just cut off Texans from traveling in the US for a decade following secession.
  9. I wonder. I don’t know the 3rd brother’s name.
  10. Washington has twice the yards and twice the time of possession. It’s amazing we aren’t behind by 4 TDs. Yet.
  11. I see Tuan Nguyen with Seton/Ascension. He does have one or two days in the north Seton location up on Research. He has an interesting story. His dad died of a heart attack when he was little. So, he and his two brothers became cardiologists. They’re the only 3 brothers known to have all become cardiologists. His brother Vu is in the same practice.
  12. I’ve only seen the original series. Are any of the spin-offs worth watching?
  13. Figured we need a topic before AI turns into Skynet and kills us all. I would watch this movie…
  14. For the final 28 minutes of the game, Arsenal did not complete one pass in Fulham’s box. How is that even possible.
  15. The desire for possession above all else is so frustrating. Every time we go up 1-0 early I feel like we are fucked because we will stop our attack and be content just passing around and not doing anything. Once the opponent goes level, we can’t find that gear again.
  16. She’s definitely thinking “he’s gonna grind my meat later tonight.”
  17. A benefit of Ryobi is they have committed to not changing their battery form factor. A battery from 2000 will still fit a tool bought in 2023. I think every other manufacturer has changed their batteries making existing tools obsolete at one point or another.
  18. Having a second team of starters is kinda helpful when you get down to the last dozen games.
  19. Was he officially in the band? He also played most of the drums on NIN’s With Teeth but he wasn’t in the band.
  20. The problem with Google Maps is the integration of Waze data behind the scenes. No, I don’t want to exit the highway and take back roads with 75 turns to save 1 minute of driving. It’s been fucked for several years now.
  21. No desire to score. We are excellent about giving the ball away though.
