  1. Thats a Tuesday stop for a bottle of wine and a bottle of bourbon
  2. Not bad, hot on the front end with a smooth transition to deep caramel/ bourbon flavor. A little warm upfront, settles to a nice warm bourbony flavor with strong caramel after taste, i like it.
  3. You food nazis are a strange breed.. eat what you like.
  4. Went to the black pearl and found a pearl in one my oysters
  5. Smax

    Sandwiches

    All their subs are great
  6. Speaking of Sams Boat, anyone who frequented in the 90's remember Pedro the guy with the fajita cart in the parking lot? Those things slammed so hard
  7. paywalled but I'm still waiting for the big drop to prove widespread voter fraud.... I do know 22k man hours in Texas for a handful of cases, most of which were people not reporting change of addresses was a complete waste of time and money yet danny groebs is still convinced voter fraud is a problem in Texas. Side not been back in Texas for the past few weeks and the political ads here are embarrassingly laughable. Hat jeans boots jim adler esque byline so cringeworthy
  8. funny as this was exactly what I was thinking to whoever it was I was addressing but if you look at the vaccine thread, I pretty much avoided it
  9. if you don't know the difference between bombing a hospital and deciding to end all life on the planet, well then maybe that is the reason you should be disappointed in UT
  10. Thats fair and I agree with much of what you've said but god damn man its been bad over the past week but this maternity hospital.. and Russia will say it was an accident or whatever meanwhile they target similar non military instillations and do the same thing over and over. Its frustrating and maddening, at the end of this when hes decided its done, there will be nothing left (structurally) in Ukraine. I guess the positive is he couldn't take the country but the loss of life on both sides and for what? IDK why this one is hitting me the way its, we've seen destruction from war in the news every day for the past 20 years or so but I'm really pissed off at this whole thing
  11. I'm well aware of this, like you I've read a lot about Russian military doctrine tactics especially over the past month, so unless this is your field of study and or profession, step down off that high horse as you are just as much an expert on this topic as I am
  12. I can see him increasing the indiscriminate shelling of major cities and bombing as well, to the point that Aleppo looked tame. He doesn't have to take it, hes not going to occupy it, he will level everything and we will just sit here and watch as their will be nothing left.
  13. I just dont buy that he would launch nukes, sorry I just dont. Yes he's an narcissistic lunatic but he's also been through kgb training and knows what launching would entail and while hes proven not to give 2 fucks I don't think he wants to go down as the man who ended the world. As for the nato line, yeah I dont see him attacking nato yet but there are what half a dozen or so ex soviet countries that aren't in nato, so guess they are next..
  14. The difference is NK and China don't need the west like Russia does, and enacting stringent sanctions on China to extent needed to hurt them, would hurt us almost as bad. Xi isnt scared by this. The only saving grace Taiwan has is China trying figuring out how to get its troops across strait quickly enough.
  15. Its a numbers game man, its not that fucking difficult
  16. Then Ukraine is lost and whatever previous soviet union country Putin sets his eyes on next, this lackluster display by the west really maes me questions nato response if he tries to take Armenia or Azerbaijan
  17. So we just sit here and watch him annihilate a country we signed to protect... the sanctions are bullshit and by the time they really start impacting the people we need it to, this will be over and Putin will have won. He will have the shown world again that Russia and anyone on edge with nuke capabilities can take whatever the fuck they want and nato and the world will sit there and debate what to do about it but in the end do nothing of substances. Yeah funneling weapons and stuff, it helps but come one do any of us REALLY think Ukraine is going to defeat the Russian military? No, they damage it but if you all are of the belief that if the west backs him corner he'll nuje, then he will certainly unleash more convectional hell on the Ukrainian people over the next few weeks to speed this up. China and Norks are watching closely at our response here an right now its looking they have the greenlight to do whatever the fuck they want with minimal repercussions. We are either the good guys or we aren't
  18. based on what the world has witnessed at Russia's military capabilities, my concern about their nukes has greatly demised, is still a threat? sure but I'm just not seeing it as big of one as I did a month ago. They've done nothing but trip over their dicks and miscalculation after miscalculation over the past 2 weeks ad in the dissent through the ranks being reported. Its time
  19. semantics maybe but we would be giving Russia the choice if they want to engage us
