  1. Did you ever read the Hyperion Cantos by Dan Simmons? It's 4 books. It's very good. Kinda prescient because it deals with AI (he calls it the Techno-Core). It gets a little weird in the last book, but all in all I enjoyed it. I just re-read it again. The Shrike is one of the best "monsters" ever.
  2. Cosine.
  3. What a race-baiting fear monger. Only citizens can vote. Legal status means green card, which does not confer status. It's just a legal residency. Even if you say "but their kids will be citizens" - Biden won't be alive in 18+ years when those kids are first eligible to vote, much less running for anything.
  4. I do, for baseball, because I couldn't get 4 together in the "tier" I wanted. So I have 2 in one tier, 2 in the other, and then just plan to sit in empty seats for 90% of the games.
  5. Freudian slip or joke I don't get?
  6. They are on the lot now most places.
  7. Rivian does, but you have to do a lease first. You do the lease, which gets the $7,500 credit applied to the purchase price (it's available for fleet sales regardless of income or anything else is my understanding), then buy out the lease. I beleive you can do it without any penalty. But they are about 50% more expensive than the MachE or Model Y.
  8. I don’t mind this site sometimes The insights you can glean I can taste the chicken fried steaks And smell them through my screen Pepper and cream gravy Posted by a bunch of tools Who’ll never know how our NIL Stacks up with other schools
  9. The kid's in 6th grade, you lunatic. I didn't start getting drunk until 8th grade.
  10. I ate there so many times as a child. Many times it was before going to Flores Country Store. I guess my parents did alright by me.
  11. That's, uh, based on your browsing behavior there champ.
  12. I'm going to need you to go read a history book and get back to me.
  13. Why does Rice play Texas?
  14. Pics or GTFO
  15. Can't beleive the kitchen sent that out with a bite already taken out of one of the shrimp.
  16. I'm the opposite, I hate Bloody Mary bars, because I always get the ratios messed up. I'd rather have a bartender who knows what he/she is doing make it right.

    Tacos

    Con Todo (trailer at Celis Brewery) was nominated for a James Beard award. I guess the secret is out.
  18. I went ahead and booked Sunday brunch there. It was on the list, and they open at 9:30. I'm flying out at noon, but the rest of my family is driving so I can just grab an uber to the airport if needed straight from the restaurant. Was going to try to get my 70+ year old mom to agree to go to Willie Mae's - but they are closed "temporarily". That's concerning.
  19. Weird, because it’s nearly ended mine a few times.
  20. I’m taking my mom + adult siblings next month for a weekend excursion. Friday to Sunday. Staying in the Garden District. All I have booked so far is GW Fins for dinner Friday night and Commanders for Jazz Brunch Saturday. I need a Saturday dinner for sure, maybe a Sunday breakfast (my flight out is at noon). Might just take everyone to Parkway Tavern for an early dinner Saturday.
  21. Actual mugshot of hitby
  22. Just buy him a left handed action/stock rifle. I'm right handed but left eye dominant, and I shot left handed because of that, and have since I was his age.
  23. My kid's school drop off line was a clusterfuck this morning.
