HOW AMERICA GOT MEAN
I am just glad that with our country getting filled up with people that are meaner to each other and angry all the time it’s a good thing we allow the purchase of unlimited fire arms. Those two data points together should lead to some fun times in the future.

winning time: the rise of the lakers dynasty. hbo in march.
The Rockets game would have been 1981 I believe and the opening scene of this season at the Boston Garden was 1984 so I think so they have to get through 3 more years in the next few episodes to end the season where it started. Guess we will get lots of 76ers stuff the rest of this season also.

What We Do In The Shadows (Show)
The exchange between Laszlo and Nadja below was fantastic. Laszlo: The only hairy frog I'm interested in is between your legs my darling. Nadja: It's not just the frog. It's the whole swamp!

Bourbon
I grabbed the last Russells Reserve 13 year at the Goody Goody near me today. I was forced into a bundle also but this was paired with a $8 bottle of red wine. The manager at the store was telling me how great the wine was and how bourbon drinkers love it. I told him when I drink red wine I stick to Silver Oak, Caymus or Opus 1 but will buy his wine to use the next time I need to cook with wine. I also went to Total Wine near me and grabbed a ECBP 9 year store pick or something like that. I wasn’t sure if those are hard to get or always on the shelf now but I couldn’t resist. Last purchase was a Redwood Empire Pipe Dream for like $35. I actually like the Redwood Empire as a cheap daily sipper for a lower proof bourbon.

Prove Me Wrong: American Airlines is the worst domestic airline
I went through JFK at the beginning of July on my way to Iceland. What a shitty airport that was. I had a 5 plus hour layover to boot. As far as American Airlines goes, I have had 5 flights on American in the last 7 days. One from Heathrow to DFW and then flights to and from New Orleans and Las Vegas. All 5 were delayed with some as much as 2 hours.

Texas Recruiting Notes 2024: Bags Don't Beat Bankrolls
- Las Vegas go hard or go home thread
Lotus of Siam did not disappoint so thanks for the recs. Garlic shrimp was phenomenal and even enjoyed eating the fried shrimp shells. The crispy duck over noodles and curry sauce was great along with the sea bass over drunken noodles.- Las Vegas go hard or go home thread
Taking the wife to Vegas on Saturday for her birthday to see Garth Brooks and staying at Caesars Palace. What the hell is there to do all day in Vegas if it is 120 degrees out. Also, going to go to Lotus of Siam for the first time. Any recs on what dishes to get?- Texas Recruiting Notes 2024: Bags Don't Beat Bankrolls

My reading comprehension may not be great but I’m pretty sure I saw she is divorced because she had a 3 way with Tom Herman and RGBIII.- 2023 Annual Thread of 3 Putting
I am down to a 11.5 handicap and I am so close to my goal of being a single digit handicap I can taste it. I shot an 87 today but for me I actually played well but blew up on a few holes (2 triples and 2 doubles). I had 9 pars which I thought was more than solid. If I could lose those blow up holes and make a few birdies that I missed (from like 5 feet) I could hit my other goal of shooting in the 70’s. I am sure next weekend I will throw up a 96 just to fuck with my head since that is what golf is all about.- Texas Recruiting Notes 2024: Bags Don't Beat Bankrolls

The craziest thing I saw while playing The Plantation Course was a guy I was playing with hit his drive about 240 yards up a steep hill. It hit the cart path and somehow started rolling back down the hill, down the cart path. I swear it took a minute and a half for the ball to roll all the way back down to about 5 feet behind our tee box just off the cart path. I have never seen a guy drive a ball that far and then have his second shot behind the tee box he just hit from. At that point we all laughed and started the flow of beer since we knew this was not a day to be angry about our scores.- 2023 Annual Thread of 3 Putting
Just got back from Maui and played the Plantation Course in Kapalua. Crazy hard especially with the 30MPH winds the day I played. I got a greens in regulation on a par 4 and triple bogeyed the hole by putting the lag off the green and down a hill and then chipping up and the ball landing on the green but still rolling back where I was standing at the bottom of the hill. The putting greens were ridiculous with everything towards the ocean being ungodly fast and everything the other way like putting on Velcro. Still had a blast and the views were spectacular.- 2023 Annual Thread of 3 Putting
After the 91 yesterday I shot a 81 again today. 3 putted about 5 holes but did sink a few 10 footers so it kind of balanced out but still think I left at least 2-3 shots on the course which would have put me in the 70s for the first time if I had rolled in a few 4 footers that I missed.. Heading to Maui in a few weeks to play the Kapalua Plantation Course so hopefully I play well enough to enjoy it.- 2023 Annual Thread of 3 Putting
I shot a 81 last weekend which is my best score ever and felt I finally turned the corner with this sport. Yesterday at the same course I shot a 91 because golf sucks and and the game should be banned from this planet.- 12 ft Shuffleboard Table
Forgot to add, this table new goes for $4600. I will take $1800 if they can move it in the next few weeks.- 12 ft Shuffleboard Table
I know its a long shot but anybody in the DFW metroplex looking for or no someone looking for a shuffleboard table? I just moved and my old table doesn’t fit in the new house since we downsized. I have to get it out of my old house before June 1 when the new people move in. It’s a Legacy Billiards Elite 12 ft table in great shape. Will probably cost $600 to have it professionally moved and set up in a new home.- Mass Shootings
I totally understand that but that’s the price you pay for getting to have your toys on you. I know the real answer is to ban these type of weapons along with some other changes in gun laws like back ground check and gun sale rules along with mental health issues. It probably won’t stop every single last mass shooting but if you enact those things and it doesn’t cut the mass shootings way down I would be shocked. Also, fuck the second amendment folks out there that hide behind that amendment and let this shit happen over and over again. Every day my son goes to high school I am terrified of a mass shooting happening at his school and him being a victim. We as a people shouldn’t have to live like this. All my parents had to worry about when I was in high school was me ditching class and going to the beach to smoke weed and get a tan. I wish I had the same worries about my son. - Las Vegas go hard or go home thread
