  1. Past hour

  3. Who paid the tariff because it’s a foreign film?
  4. We like retreads so I can see us bringing back pressley
  5. At the extreme risk of stating the obvious, this feels like a pretty fucking huge game. A win would get us within 3.5 of the Astros and tied for the wild card (notwithstanding a pretty fucking underwhelming road trip).
  6. sd express cards starting to have more availability. picked this one from amazon:
  7. 😂😂😂
  8. It was dumb and they lingered on it a little too long, imo. The lady behind us got a kick out of it.
  9. Bumping this after perusing various college-related threads and tracking down the book I believe @CooterBrown referred to a couple of pages back, which is Jeffrey Selingo's "Who Gets In and Why." Was only $1.99 on Kindle and that's two bucks very well spent, although his new book is coming out soon and the spreadsheet he puts together on various colleges is free for download on his web site. That spreadsheet is very useful. Couple of questions: anybody hired a coach or other consultant? Would be interested in hearing your experiences, as others on this thread probably would. We decided to hire one on the cheap ... our son, who's graduating in May and who probably has his younger sister's ear a lot better than I do. She listens, but she doesn't talk, and that's what we need right now from her. She'll get into either of the two flagships closest to us, but she has other good options that she simply refuses to talk about right now. Teenagers ... The other question: has anyone had good success using Selingo's tips, especially the "buyers/sellers" approach? I did "persuade" my daughter to take one visit this summer but only stumbled onto Selingo's book afterward because of this thread. Turns out I was pretty much following his approach in choosing this particular visit and I feel good about the school's potential. But getting my daughter to wake up to a few things is our biggest struggle now.
  10. Facts. Only 45 min drive away. Hour with traffic for me. I’ll catch him once he gets settled in. And every time Austin comes to town
  11. also “sleeveless tank” is redundant. Ditto for "cut off jorts".
  12. Haven't seen a big pop like that since the first quarter of Game 7 of the NBA Finals
  13. It’s pretty dope. How’s life below the rim?
  14. Amen. I thought she commanded the screen in Year of Living Dangerously.
  15. Yeah, Denver was upper 50s last night/this morning
  16. The Astros are "weighing the possibility" of bringing back Ryan Pressly to the Astros, who was recently released by the Cubs, per @BNightengale
  17. I don't think $350 and a pack of sunflower seeds is going to get him very far in his endeavors.
  18. I had never heard of Stephen King but enjoyed reading as an alternative to TV. ‘Twas about fifty years ago when my dear niece, only 12 or 13 at time, gave me this one for Christmas or a birthday. I enjoyed every word of every story. My niece is still cool and clever. If one has never experienced Kingian literature, it’s not a bad place to start.
  19. they've 6 straight series
  20. Just because he was better than QBs during that time frame and our teams were infinitely less talented doesn’t mean it was because of him. Quinn was an above average to good QB for us, nothing more nothing less. He didn’t elevate the team Maalik Murphy was 2-0 that season including beating Kansas St.
  21. That hasn’t mattered since November 1980, except from 1989-2000 and from 2017-2020, why would it matter now?
  22. So Switzer’s son is coaching and grandson is on the bases?
  23. July 31: Headline - Trey Lance tosses 2 touchdown passes, leading the Chargers over the Lions 34-7 in Hall of Fame game. Another milestone in Jones' legacy. Chargers 34-7 Lions (Jul 31, 2025) Game Recap - ESPN
