  1. In after second episode. Certainly a different storyline. Good, not great so far. Wondering where it all goes, so will watch it all.

    LBGTQ

    My paternal grandmother (Pauline Olenda) had five sisters - Neva, Opal Lorene, Elba Iona, Verna, and Myrtie Mae. And my mother's name was Mildred. None of which I think were gay or trans. God knows the source of some of these old names.
  4. Why are they yelling frijoles?
  5. Dick Law Firm. "Put our name in their mouth." He looks more like a car salesman than an attorney - but then I've never met the average Surly barrister. "It's easy getting Dick." "Better get Dick."
  6. Sandy Berger, former Clinton adviser, took classified documents out of the National Archives. It was reported he tried to smuggle them out in his socks. He pled guilty. He was working for Kerry's election campaign at the time.
  7. They're now calling Mark Welsh Trev? I can see Trey (he's Mark Welsh III) but can't see the Trev.
  8. As stated many times in the Fuck the Police thread, the police will always protect their own from accountability. This includes retired police officers working as independent investigators. Just another scam.
  9. Apologies to Abe Lemons - like scoring one less point than a dead man.
  10. Weren't all those (including Trump) who came in below William Henry Harrison like coming in second to a dead man?
  11. Michael Corcoran had a good write up. You can read a lot of his work at michaelcorcoran.net or subscribe to his emails at the same location. Great for long time Austinites or people who want to learn Austin music history. Spoilered for length.
  12. I feel similarly, only it's been over 50 years since I was at UT. Yes, I'm a boomer, but not one of those with an "inability to think critically about how the common good and the individual interest can be aligned." At times, I get angry and revert to the borderline radicalism of my youth. I guess what has changed the most is my opinion on how to go about effecting change and how quickly we can expect it. (If ever.)
  13. Only if the good guys win ultimately.
