  1. I just posted this in the pathetic man downfall thread. 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
  2. I take a cab when I can find one. Generally cheaper than Uber.
  3. I am in Paris, but I knoew it was happening.
  4. Having lived in both Houston and NYC, I can tell you that Houston being mentioned as up there with NYC as a food town is a complete and utter lie.
  5. Stupid people like this woman should be called out. And anyone that attends Trump rallies is a Grade A moron. The world would have been better off if more people like this woman had succumbed to COVID. I'm just stating the very obvious. Sorry you got your panties in a twist.
  6. Hot off the presses... https://thehill.com/regulation/court-battles/4524017-trump-new-york-hush-money-trial-immunity/ He wants to delay the Hush Money case until Presidential immunity is decided. He really believes that the President should be able to get away with murder.
  7. Texas leading the charge, first with all its abortion legislation and now this. https://www.texastribune.org/2024/02/27/ken-paxton-proxy-votes-congress/ Fuck Texas times eleventy billion.
  8. Oh, I know it was. And people will lap it up. Because they are idiots.
  9. You mean, the withdrawal that was all on Donald J. Trump?
  10. I have never watched a State of the Union speech. That being said, I am going to be watching this thread while having sushi, so keep me updated!
  11. Alas, I had jury duty in November. This is the jury I wanted to be selected for. Sigh.
  12. Yay! I am still sad I missed you guys when you came up in Jan. I can recommend Sutton Place as a neighborhood that is central but quiet. On my dad's side, I am only a 3rd generation Texan, but on my mom's side, I am at least 5th generation, possibly 6th, but Smith is a common name. I have a much better lifestyle here in NYC than I ever did in Houston
  13. Fly or train to Edinburgh. Train might be very scenic, but also long. Fly means Heathrow. Bleh.
  14. So glad I left in 2019. Seriously. Anyone with a modicum of intelligence who is under 50 will get the fuck out of the shithole Texas has become.
  15. 5 years in August. Granted Covid felt like forever. I am leaning back towards going to Rome in April. As I do more research about Liberation Day in Rome, the more I think it would be fun to be there.
  16. You do know I lived in Houston for 12 years, right? Left in 2019, thank goodness given the shit going on in Texas since 2019.
  17. London trip on March 16 is all booked. Then Paris for the weekend at the end. While in London, I will be working a lot, but trying to make time for some outstanding meals. Will hit up The Devonshire for an early Sunday dinner. Monday night, I have dinner booked at Chishuru (the new one), though that one could change if my friend is up for meet up. Tuesday, a colleague and I are hitting Brunswich House. Wednesday is open so far. Thursday, heading to The Grazing Goat in Marylebone to catch up with a bunch of former colleagues. I am trying to get things signed off on Thursday before I leave so I can fuck off to Paris early on Friday. Staying at Le Roch, where I always stay. Hitting up Lafayette's for dinner on Friday. Lafayette's is a new Mory Sacko restaurant in the former home of the Marquis de Lafayette, which is also now a hotel. The space looks amazing. I have my fingers crossed that a last minute cancellation means I can get into MoSuke, but this is a grand back up plan. Doing lunch Saturday at Juveniles, with Saturday dinner open for now. Then Sunday, I fly back to NYC around 4 PM with a layover in London (a very short one, so my BA status will be helpful!). The second trip to London will be in April, and will be until we have our UK auditors sign our UK accounts. Afterwards, I am still trying to decide where to fuck off to. I was going to go to Rome, but there is a national holiday smack dab in the middle of that where everything closes. So then have thought about Vienna, but I think I want some sun. Looking into South of Spain or Portugal at the moment, but nothing booked on this trip at all. And 3rd time in London this year will be in Mid-June when a new member of my team joins. I will at that point have 5 employees in London vs. 1 in NYC and 1 in Houston. For that one, I have no idea what I am doing.
  18. I did finally get my conditional approval while I was in Asia. I did my interview on re-entry in the US. All good. I had not interviewed since I first entered the program in 2011 or 2012. This was only my second renewal.
  19. I’ve been to Mont St. Michel. We just went during a day. Had no issues.
  20. Shouldn't we all go in and start buying these up, causing the prices to go up. Then Maga idiots start buying in, causing it to go up even more. Then we sell, sell, sell. Profit?!?
  21. Just got info from my cousin who is the Mayor of Shamrock. He said they are all ok, with fires about 20 miles north, with winds out of the south (this is as of this AM, fyi). He did say possible rain or snow this AM, which would be nice. So, got that going, which is nice.
