  1. Past hour
  2. Solid advice on the solo female travelers. We stumbled across a YT channel called Itchy Boots. This chicka is extraordinary. First, she's tiny, like maybe 5'2" buck twenty, well educated, speaks 5-6 languages and from the Netherlands. So, yeah, she's blonde and attractive. Not the kinda of woman (as a dad) you would expect to be traveling by herself. She doesn't usually travel after darkness and will bail off a main road/route and never think twice about it. She's travelled 190,000 km or 118,000 miles, all on motobike. Fuck, the weather rain, snow, mud, desert, desolate, jungle trail, isolated, very isolated, mud road (in Africa 40+trucks stuck on it) the list goes on and on. I'd recommend, starting at Season 4 or 5, by then she had found her style of recording and gotten better with a drone. Most of her vids are about 20-25 minutes long, so they are quick watch. She covers border crossings, her accommodations (anything from someone's spare bedroom to thatch hut or....) food, getting stuck, broke down and more. Our biggest take away has been, echoing from above, how nice everyone is she encounters. The episodes of Middle East travel were especially something. I don't think she ever bought a meal. Paging @Patricio Swayze yep, she's been to Socotra, and I'd agree it would be a place to see. As our man @midtown says from above you have to get out there and learn the ropes. You can't catch fish from the couch, you have to go. There was an older gentleman in a masonic lodge I'd become good friends with who always talked about his trip to Ajijic, Mx. We did a little more research and made the decision to go. My man Fred set up a meeting another mason he knew from Mexico and the hook was set. Fantastic trip. We flew to Guadalajara rented a car and drove all over the place. Turned out my masonic connection was a national officer in the Mx Grand Lodge. He pretty much turned his house over to us, gave us places to go, people to talk to, etc. It never hurts to know a guy, right? We wound up in Manzanillo out on the coast. For the olds, it is where Bo Derek went running down the beach. That was filmed at our hotel. We didn't know it at the time, but we were "hooked" on Mexico and Central America. Spoiler! We are preparing another trip to Panama in the spring. I'm waiting on a Letter of Introduction from our Grand Lodge to the Panama Grand Lodge, so I can attend some local lodge meetings and meet some brothers who know everyone and everything about the local areas. Should be one for the books. I've digressed let's get back on track. Here's a link to Noraly's web page. One thing she doesn't say is one of the reasons she got started in this. She returned from an overseas job and found out her bf had been cheating on her. So, she sold off her stuff and took a trip to clear her head, and the rest is history. If you like any kind of travel, give her channel a watch, you might learn something. Itchy Boots
  3. Taking a relatively low profile RB from a DeSoto State Championship team seems like a good idea…..
  4. They do know that even the "heritage Americans" were filthy immigrant invaders from a certain point of view...right?
  5. Without Googling, I'm gonna guess that this means WASPy white families who came from Europe many generations ago. You know, the people who built this country. And it does not mean black people descended from families who were brought here against their will 200 to 400 years ago to build this country. And it definitely doesn't mean anyone descended from the Chinese families who came here to build the railroads over 150 years ago. And it obviously does not include Hispanic immigrants who've been building this country, literally, for generations. It means the German, Irish, Italian, and English immigrants who built this country. Also, if you are white and your family just got here, like, ya know, the First Lady, or Elon, you're a "Heritage American." That about right...?
  6. Mississippi is probably the most talent-devoid state in the entire south after Arkansas. Why would we want to recruit it more?
  7. Keistered it.
  8. I think we'd to see her starfish to confirm.
  9. It’s certain they already have a plan to put playoff appearances on their wall. Question is for their opener against Cupcake U next year is do they issue a commemorative cup?
  10. Me reading this thread:
  11. Please send it to me and treatyoak. DTF on performance fabric will be default. I'll get some other options for people that want regular cotton
  12. Use the other theme. I'm upgrading this week and this should be solved. Down at bottom of the page. Themes. IPS - default
  13. A Green Wave. Similar to a Golden Shower, something aggie fans are all too familiar with.

  15. They had Allgeier the Spare getting exactly the same amount of carries as Bijan yesterday. The Falcons seem like an organization that actively works to pull the bookshelf on itself repeatedly. I also found myself wondering if he’s not nearing some season milestones that would trigger contractual payouts that the Falcons are trying to avoid paying out? I’d think “surely not” in most circumstances but they’re a truly shitty organization.
  16. This. It has been discussed on virtually every thread for the last month and a half.
  17. The legacy networks got ahold of streaming and are putting on their normal network crap but now you can say "fuck" so it's edgy. There is still a lot of fun and unique television being made. Certainly miles ahead of the film industry.
  18. I think I’m going to sell my PC. I don’t have enough time to play games anymore. Especially the style of games I like playing.
  19. Ha. This is quality shade. That said, I feel like the “what happened with Steven & 5 in the offseason?” discussion has become sort of ubiquitous and not something niched away somewhere.
  20. Is that who I think it is?
  21. Given the totality of their personnel losses heading into the portal period, plus what they’ve spent on this 2026 class, there’s almost no way they have enough to spend in the portal for what it would take to reload. The money guys are not stupid for ATM and Elko isn’t either. I wouldn’t be surprised if they’re telling themselves that they’ll develop the youth, be smart and picky in the portal and regroup with an 8-4 season that catapults them back to the playoffs in 2027. They were gifted an unbelievable schedule this year. They get the two gifts in South Bend with the dropped XP and the flagrant holding no-call. Then, they face Auburn, Florida, Arkansas, and LSU all right in the midst of structural program collapse. Missouri with a 3rd string true freshman QB and whatever the fuck was going on with South Carolina’s program this year. Just insane shit where opponents were committing suicide in front of them at every turn. Next year, no way that happens. The 2026 schedule and their personnel losses guarantee nothing regarding 8-4 or better but they think that’s their absolute floor.
