  1. Buy a higher end 6" jointer, IMO. Longer is more important than width and coplanarity is the most important characteristic. The coplanarity is much easier to achieve and maintain on the more expensive machines. I would spend 100% of my budget maximizing the length and coplanarity. If you need to do boards wider than 6", build a router sled (that's what I did when I gave up on my shitty 8" jointer). Just be sure to nail the flatness of your reference board.
  2. Texas DPS had sexual assault cases at over 18k back in 2017. 26k isn't that far fetched given many probably don't make it to arrest. Though many don't also lead to pregnancy but regardless, these numbers are all not good.
  3. He went to Tech. Fuck him.
  4. I noticed this with the last "discount" golf glove I tried - one fit fine, the other way too snug despite both being a L. Foot Joys have always been consistent. Regardless of glove brand, even playing weekly (at least), my gloves last a while. A 4 pack is probably enough to get me through most of the year.
  5. Roster next year is looking like a total dumpster fire. He'll have to hit the portal hard but with what momentum? This feels very akin to Shaka's last year here - painful to watch, mediocre at best, and looming shit show on the horizon. Beard comes in, manufactures mojo, and we are able to construct a monster of a roster out of the portal. Really hoping history repeats itself...
  6. I, for one, would love if you said more. It was just getting good.
  7. I just change my club from a 60 to a GW (49 degree I think), choke down a little and alter my landing target to be considerably closer to me (so like 25% of the way to the hole instead of 75% of the way) but otherwise use the exact same stance, motion, swing thought as I do with my 60. GW will roll a ton more than a 60. Takes time to get the feel for it but I like the consistency between the two and use both equally.
  8. And buy her lots of candy and sugary drinks when on the course/range. All the positive reinforcements in the world!
  9. Oooor, work on chipping/pitching. At least for me, my irons can come and go - it's the most minute difference in angle of face/path that can make a monumental difference in ball flight and if it's off, it's damn hard to get it back during a round. With my short game now, I'm very confident it's always there to bail me out. Short game is also a lot easier to practice daily. My mentality is every birdie putt I get is a bonus. I play for the up and downs.
  10. They have a ton of shitty logos they have to deal with (with some awful colors to compliment an orange/black car) but I like the orange/black balance going more dark side overall. Probably best they can manage given the sponsors unless the sponsors will go black and white.
  11. Love it - I have a vintage (60s?) Stanley jointer plane and a vintage Japanese plane (equivalent to a 4.5). Recently had them tuned up and they are amazing to work with now. Those steels last incredibly well.
  12. That definitely paints a much more accurate picture of the state of things at A&M.
  13. Portal rankings should be net of what you lost. Of course you're going to add 20 bodies from the portal - you lost 25.
  14. Moral of the last few posts.... Fuck Chelsea.
  15. Gunther is awesome, he's just made for the camera. I would love it if Sky Sports picked him up for the broadcast team.
  16. So basically what most of us here wish we were doing?
  17. He's going to throw a cat out of a window? I'd support that.
  18. At this point, let him speak. I can't imagine any moderates are leaning towards him and any "reasonable" R's are becoming less and less interested in voting at all (at least the ones I know). Yea, he's whipping his base up into a frenzy each time but his base, his true base (the Jan 6 crowd, the racist, homophobic, anti-women, fascist loving crowd), I don't think is that large.
  19. Garage demo is going to make parking more of a nightmare... I assume that's to make way to expand the non-secure portion of the airport. It's desperately needed as the checkin/security area is probably the most congested part of the whole airport.
  20. The west expansion is well underway. They've blocked off the end gates and added a stringer gate as a temp replacement. I was looking for evidence of the new terminal work but couldn't see any. Granted, if the tunnel is first then seeing evidence of it would be more of a challenge.
  21. Tour average make under 10ft is like 20%. And Scottie is amazing on approach so he's going to have a lot of those putts. Him missing 15 isn't shocking - he probably had 40 attempts. Scottie under 10ft isn't really the issue anyways. It's Scottie under 5 ft that is the real head scratcher. And Kirk was just unconscious with the flat stick this week on top of it all.
  22. -8 final round. Best round saved for last. Save this stupidity for later.
  23. When is this Brian Harman flash in a pan going to be over? I've grown tired of it.
  24. Feels like we heard about him as a flight risk every offseason but once the season started, he sold out for the team - taking on every hit, going as full speed as he can, playing through injuries and not bitching about them. Best of luck, X!
