  1. Titleist and Mizuno know how to design sexy looking irons. Any of those Japanese brands as well - miura, Endo, fourteen, etc....
  2. I don't think Republicans deserve any benefit of the doubt after the last 8 years. They are who we think they are and we shouldn't fall for the ruse.
  3. Anything but the blades, really. Everything else is varying degrees of strong lofted and very forgiving. Of the non blades, look at all of them - which looks best to your eye? That's where I'd start.
  4. Is that first photo a before and after shot?
  5. I like Friends. Give me old and boring.
  6. Using anecdotes to defend your position is usually a sign of a weakness. Which is the case here. UT Austin grads make up a small % of "good corporate jobs" in Austin, certainly not enough. Most, like Bozo said, are imports following the work.
  7. Edit: @FirstTimeCaller echo'd my thoughts exactly.
  8. That's not how math works. Edit: Or you're leaving out a key piece of info such as "I now have a homestead exemption or ag exemption or..."
  9. Nothing. I'd never get it past anti-stall. But to be a passenger, now you're talking.
  10. I have a CM 2HP dust collector - you can disconnect the hose that leads to the bag and it will work like you described. That works great for most tools but for things like my sander, the shop vac's higher velocity air flow seems to work better. The CM also uses bigger hoses so those will be more expensive but the actual unit itself isn't bad. https://www.harborfreight.com/35-gallon-2-hp-high-flow-high-capacity-dust-collector-59726.html
  11. You misunderstand me. I'm taking this very seriously. I see the end game and I'm not saying we shouldn't discuss what happens if Texas doesn't back down. I'm commenting on how quickly we've pivoted to killing (current) citizens and burning cities to the ground. It's all talk (for now), I get it - just not comfortable talk to this weenie lib.

    Measles

    Vaccines only work if a critical mass gets them because as @SquishMitten mentioned, they are not 100% effective. You need 99% of the herd to be 80% protected to effectively ward off the disease (making up numbers here).
  13. This secession talk is starting to bring out the MAGA in some of you... Or shit, maybe I am weenie lib after all.
  14. That's pretty slick. I haven't heard of Uncle Straps before - how does he make the metal bracelets? Is he designing the links themselves and sending the design to a forge house?
  15. If Texas secedes, can certain areas elect out and stay with the US? Would that require federal control of said holdout? Asking for a friend. In Austin. Named Austin.
  16. Bits and Bits for.... bits. https://bitsbits.com/ Amazon for clamps and squares - they actually have a lot of good quality options there. Just have to do research elsewhere on the various woodworking forums or reddit.
  17. I miss the days when I was young and thought this shit didn't matter. Now it's just a year long anxiety attack every 4 years.
  18. I'm planning on upgrading to a Sawstop soon. My argument to my wife is "$2500 is a shit ton cheaper than a new finger". And I've had a few scares on my current saw, especially as my hands get fatigued running 20 boards through the saw.
  19. 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.
  20. 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.
  21. He went to Tech. Fuck him.
  22. 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.
  23. 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...
  24. 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.
