  1. if the show does go another season, i'd like to see chuck take down the general.  you can tell he seethes to be under him.  being governor wouldn't really give him authority to do that though, so not sure how that could play out.  i'm still under the impression the close call took the wind out of his sails so not even sure he'll run anymore.

  2. i thought laurel summed up her thinking nicely.  do i go with the people i trust but cant beat, or the people i can beat but dont trust?  she opted for trust.  not smart.  neither she nor donathan are playing a smart game.  weak, lameass clingons.   in the end i think it came down to laurel wanting revenge for kellyn voting twice for her last week. kellyn and angela are next to go.  they are the two out of the alliance.

  3. they're going to pull out a sketch from the philly case box, and it's going to look similar to the sketches from the chicago case.  the clencher will be that it matches the drawings of elizabeth that the dying wife has plastered all over her bedroom.

  4. starter bacteria is overrated and not necessary.  

    the powerhead is just a substitute for the pump and airstone.  your undergravel filter will work just the same.  the powerhead creates flow down through the gravel bed, under the filter plate, and up the lift tubes.  a box filter on the back will serve the same purpose, most people use both (especially in a large tank).

    Compromise? I think that ship has sailed, man. 

    i heard a conversation on pbs newshour where they were saying that because of the frustration people have with washington they elect people that won't compromise, creating further gridlock and frustration.  i hear people say we are more divisive now than ever, and i dont know if that's true, but it would be nice to see someone from either side reach across the aisle.  it's no secret that if a republican were to run today and say in his campaign "i'll work with democrats to fix the problems of this country", his run would be over before it started.  that's a non-starter.  i dont think it would be as bad a campaign promise to the democrats.  we need compromise.  we need to find common solutions.

  6. ah, so they're doing the ranger creek plan.  small bottles.  if the normal garrison is +$80, I was thinking balmorhea  and estacado have to be around the $120 mark.

    Why is he doing this when there are reports that he is possibly considering another run at the White House?

    you just answered your own question.  the second answer might be that he's attempting to protect his legacy.  this was one of his crowning achievements.  

  8. does anyone know the future outlook for this show?  how many more episodes this season?  renewed for next season?  it seemed like it was over last episode.  no more rivalry between ax and chuck?  the whole show was based on that.  chuck seemed to allude in is ben hogan story that he is a changed man and the game has passed him by.  the only loose end i'd like to see is taylor's story.  she's clearly got something on her mind (or up her ass).

    Garrison Brothers “Balmorrhea” is excellent. Highly recommend if you are into Texas Bourbons

    where did you find this one, and how much did it set you back?

    Picked up a bottle of Weller 12 this evening while grabbing a bottle of Buffalo Trace.  Asked if they had any ER, and she asked if I wanted to add on a bottle of Weller 12.  $24.99 for Buffalo Trace.  $25.99 for Weller 12.   

    donde?

  11. i did t22 right after they opened on burnet.  i thought it was excellent chicken, maybe a little better than lucy's. could not eat there all the time as i just don't agree with the marketing plan. elevating fried chicken. hmmm.   $32 for an 8-piece is just not sustainable.  it's better than popeye's, but not that much better.  e

    The fish tank experience is going so well that I think I'm going to up my game a bit. I found a 29 gal tank on Craigslist for $40, comes with a stand and light. I'll prolly pull the trigger on it if the seller calls me back.

    So where do I start? Pump, filter, gravel... what all do I need beyond that? I'm truly a noob here but want to get learned. 

    I'm not impatient at all so it would be fine for me to just set the thing up and let it run for a good while to learn how to keep up with the maintenance. How would a tank do with just water in it? Would algae grow? Would that be a good way to start? Just a tank and whatever critters that would keep it clean at its most basic? Or jump in with some cheap fish and learn on the fly?

    HALP! I think I may have the fish tank bug.

    If you got powerheads for your undergravel filter you wouldnt need a pump.  otherwise, gravel, filter, plants, rocks.  i assume you're going freshwater, which is wise for newcomers.  algae won't be a big issue unless you have the tank set up where sunlight hits it.  no need to let it run any longer than 3 days before putting fish in it.

    Yes, my formula has proven to be effective. Two parent households fare far better than one parent households, it’s a fact. 

    White people can help, and they do, but the reality is that we can not solve the disintegration of the black nuclear family, that responsibility lies within the black community. 

    Also, nothing about my life is cozy or has been easy, it’s a continuous struggle filled with countless challenges. Thankfully my parents exhibited an excellent work ethic, which was an integral part of my success. I wish for these children to experience the same.

     

    i hate to break this to you but your formula has proven to suck shit through a straw.  so your big conclusion is that kids from nondivorced families fare better than divorced ones, white kids fare better than black ones, rich kids fare better than poor ones, kids that watch pbs fare better than those watching real housewives, kids that eat cheerios for breakfast fare better than those that eat fruit loops.  big whup.  now that we've paid your consultants millions of dollars for that brilliant analysis, what do we do with all these divorced, poor, black, mushbrained, malnutritioned kids?  fucking deplorables is what they are.  we need more kids from sweden.

    black on black crime isn't sexy enough for the news. 

    and democrats killing democrats is just what the republicans like to hear.   no wonder they want more guns in the streets.
