  1. YES!!!! A true Holy Grail moment from the vault. Rumored for decades, Bruce was denying it existed in any complete form as recently as 3 months ago. Just in time for the release of Deliver Me from Nowhere. Here's the 2nd version of BITUSA (between the acoustic demo and the full E Street Band hit) The box set has the complete electric Nebraska, outtakes from Nebraska, a remastered original release, and a recent solo theater recording of the album on vinyl + Blu ray. I've had the CD bootleg Alone In Colt's Neck for about 20 years now. The original version of BITUSA is on it, plus Pink Cadillac, Losin' Kind and Child Bride (which later became Working on the Highway).

  2. Such an underrated film. RIP, Graham. You always delivered.
  3. Search Amazon anti-Trump shirt. That's where I found it. Multiple color & fabric options available. Under twenty bucks. Wore it into my local dive pub that could be rebrandaed as MAGATS for a fantasy league draft and the people who got it laughed & high fived me. The knuckle draggers never seemed to notice.
  4. What can I say? I love hummingbirds.
  5. Whatever you do, make sure you get the 2nd. A buddy of mine got a rough case of shingles late last winter. It was right after he'd retired and was dealing w/ trying to get Medicaid. He got the first shot for Shingles in 2019 when he was 62. Then the pandemic hit and he just forgot to go back and get the second one. That decision came back to bite him in the ass big time.
  6. That was my experience w/ the shingles vax 2 years ago (first dose kinda suck; second had me doing the fever/chills/full body ache for about 12 hours). I got my flu and TDAP vax this morning. Tried to get the new COVID-19 vax but no dice due to insurance coding issues. The tech at CVS was very helpful and spent a good 10 minutes trying to get things worked out but no dice. She even called me after we'd left to tell me to try checking in again next Thu or Fri to see if the coding issues are fixed. The pharmacist who gave me my 2 shots told me they just received boxes of the new C19 vax yesterday and they're just taking up space in storage now.
  7. I like this team. Looking forward to a great season. Typed from my chill space on the back patio. It's all good.
  8. The answer is always Nothing But Trouble.
  9. At some point hiring a Field Goal coach for $250k a year to simply tell Sark "take the 3 points " is going to happen. It shouldn't have to come to that, but math is apparently very hard.
  10. Saban just dropping a "shit outta luck" early. Hope it's a sign for a saucy, irreverent show to come.
  11. Here we go!! LC's last stand.
  12. From the HEB parking lot getting my curbside groceries before the game. TEXAS!
  13. Baylor D is ass, dude.
  14. VP Tommy Tuberville. Couch Fucker knows how important it is to not be outshined by #2.
  15. LOL at any of you who really believe that Trump's passing (hello, FBI) improves our situation. He opened the fucking floodgates, and the MAGATs are forming lines from Longview to Morgantown to register as America First dumb fucks in every level of election. I can't even imagine what a state funeral for dotard will look like. I'm expecting nothing less than every government building being required to be gilded in gold in his honor. The cretins in congress and the senate will crawl over one another to name airports, buildings, roads...hell, fucking CITIES after Trump. It's OVER. Democracy LOST. There are no sensible, grounded "conservatives" or GOP members who want to guide us back to normalcy. The Dems clutched their pearls and brought a Subway sandwich to a gunfight. The oligarchs behind the GQP have everything they need to perpetuate their vision. I hope George W Bush rots in hell for not having the balls to use what was left of his voice in 2016 or 2024 to call the old guard Republicans back home & open the eyes to ten or fifteen percent who might have been persuadable. We're fucked.
  16. Given what's unfolding this morning, I amend my earlier remark to state that if we make it through SEPTEMBER it will be a significant accomplishment. Trump to send through National Guard to the Twin Cities in 3...2...1.
  17. The McDonald's and Russian lapel pins are a nice touch.
  18. Agree with this 100%. Maybe it was due to the focus of the topic being one album vs an entire career, but Deliver Me From Nowhere is just so much tighter than his TP biography.
  19. "NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW!" shouted from the guy who has escaped punishment for decades of immoral and illegal activities is quite the flex.
  20. Almost can't wait to hear the ESPN heads on Unsportsmanlike come Monday. After Sanders' first game they were all anointing him as starter, ridiculing all of the teams that passed on him, etc.
  21. I'd almost forgotten how much Tim Brando's voice annoys the fuck outta me.
  22. Maxwell added "not only was he perfectly behaved, he was dashingly handsome, virile, and exudes a magnetic charm that women find irresistible. He's the perfect male package." I mean, if she's gonna carry his water to gain favors then go the whole way, bitch.
  23. He's just throwing gasoline on the fire at this point.
  24. Omar "oh indeed" goes here. As much as my aggy BIL hated losing to Texas, nothing got him more worked up than Leach dragging his nuts across the 12th Man's face.
  25. The outfit says she's down for the dirty, but the look on her face says she questions your choice of the 10W-40 when you live in a climate where 5W-30 is clearly the better fit for your driving conditions.
