  1. I am super fortunate that 100% of my air travel (and I am on road 80-90% of time) is in 1st class. Has been a lifesaver. I am 6'3" and I did YEARS of travel on SWA and at times it was an absolute beating.

    The Combination of: TSA Pre - Clear - Airport Clubs - 1st Class make business travel as good as it can be. Where I am now is just tired of the constant stream of fucktards that have zero clue as to how airports work. I really have turned into Clooney from "Up in the air" (minus the great hair and good looks).

    The dude who threw the fit is a total tool and needs some anger mgmt counseling. People who recline are a fact of life in air travel, you just learn to deal with it. You frankly really cannot work on a laptop in coach anymore due to seat size. Get a tablet or convertible if you are really trying to get anything done in the air.(unless you are in 1st or a bulkhead)

    20 years ago, a customer with Airgas in Dallas wanted to only go to lunch on Wednesdays at some strip club off Walnut Hill near D&B.  They had a lunch buffet, and I think it was $5 or $10.  He would NOT let a girl touch him because he said they were gross and his wife would smell them on him.  But I guess it was cool those whores were likely helping prep food he was going to eat. 

    (No CR) and his name was Mike Pence

  3. I think Bernie will have his “grab ‘em by the pussy” sound bite equivalent come out if he gets the nomination. 
     

    Lots of radical skeletons in his closet and if economy has issues heading into election related to China/virus I don’t think Bernie’s message lands well. 
     

    Debates with him and Trump would sure as shit be fun to watch. Be like a live version of “Grumpy Old Men”

  4. I’m out. I’ve been in east side club for some time. Tired of shitty product, the stupid “state fair” style drink ticket system etc etc

    I may switch to new end zone club depending on costs but it’s been a shitastic 1 step fwd, 2 steps back decade plus and for what I’m spending I can easily arbitrage the one decent home game a year and still have a good amount of $ leftover. 
     

    I have zero faith Herman pulls it together and rights this ship.

    Occasionally you get 11 year olds that were not drafted by a Majors team. The thing I never cared for was the 11 year old pitcher that could throw heat but had terrible accuracy. It usually terrified the new 9 year olds. One time I lost a 9 year old on my team who was nailed by an older pitcher with no control. The kid was pretty nervous about batting as it was but then after getting hit the way he did, he just bailed in the middle of the game. Never played again.

    Nice thing is that cannot happen (maybe in fall ball) in the spring @ WHLL (or at least I have never seen it happen) for the reason you describe. Risk of injury too high.

    We have our 1st tourney tomorrow for a new team, as it is so early in the season it is a mix of 10u and 11u teams (son playing is on a 10u team) so the team will probably get shellacked. Will be good experience and ultimately help him for LL this season as well. 1st game is super early though which really sucks.

    I'd rather not have a defensive coach who Kevin Sumlin had to to fire because of incompetence, but maybe that's just me.  It's like taking home a girl that Vic passed on.

    to be fair, that could be a skinny chick that is still hot. We have all seen the girl's Vic goes for. Maybe the inverse of your quote would be better for this coaching hire

    The daughter and older son have been into my collection of choose your own adventure books (Star Challenge, Time Machine, et al.) so I made the mistake of introducing them to 7th Continent. They love the bejeezus out of the game, but listen here, fam, we are 9 hours into the first "starter" curse and there is no end in sight.

    I'm starting to rethink my life.

    The kids hope the game will never end and I'm starting to think that it won't.

    The box of tissues is there to soak up my tears.a448dcc76df449e2ee7cf5861e4203e4.jpg

    I just got this. Think I am about a year away from my youngest being able to hang. Also need a place to be able to store it as my wife (no pics) won't be thrilled at letting the game sit out for a year of play.

  8. For any of you in the Austin area (and this may have been mentioned up thread). There is a cool place off of Lamar (Airport cross street roughly) called "Vigilante Pub"

    Tons of gaming tables, a couple of private rooms. Pretty good food and bar. It's a good place to go. Private room rents for $100 for like 5 hours (and is hidden behind a bookcase so has cool feel).

    Good place to play.

  9. The blaming 4Chan for this is just such a bad look. The shitty app you bought called of all things "shadow" (really great name for an election monitoring app) didn't work.

    Had you done any fucking due diligence on it/testing etc you would have known that. Also in this day and age why are we doing a fucking phone bank in 1st place. Text the results in, use GroupMe for fuck's sake. Just stupid, take responsibility vs trying to make it "hackers".

  10. I applaud them for actually intervening vs just filming the attack and seeking their 15 seconds of Youtube infamy. Something fitting about guy hitting woman getting touched up by someone in a pink squirrel outfit.
