  1. That attorney was high af.
  2. Pitbull will be fantastic.
  3. This is up there with the "Brooks was here, so was Red" response as far as all-time greats go. Bravo sir. Simply incredible.
  4. out of high school, you say?
  5. Plenty of great bike stories on here lately. Bravo. I will change it up and just ask this: why would a group of 14 year old boys drive a fully functioning go-kart through the woods, rigged up to jump the carbeurator to a top speed that the gas pedal couldn't hit, attempting to navigate through a suicide gauntlet of massive rocks chunked at them by their friends? Answer: because they were a group of 14 year old boys.
  6. San Antonio is a fucking great destination city for a game or a concert.
  7. Especially when the other guy lobbed a weak air punch in his direction. Fucking psychopath.
  8. A few metal examples, though there are probably thousands. Anthrax paying tribute to Ronnie James Dio and Dimebag: Zakk Wylde's tribute to Dimebag: Pantera referencing Sabbath and Slayer: Dee Snider referencing pretty much everyone, since every lyric in the chorus is a different metal title: Public Enemy shouting out Anthrax and a bunch of other musicians
  9. Doesn't really matter who was in the right or wrong there. The reality is that car beats person, every time.
  10. McCartney's Flaming Pie put an end to a string of really insipid work through the 80s. Some would argue Flowers in the Dirt was the return to Macca form, but I don't think it holds up as well. McCartney has essentially been on a non-stop run since Flaming Pie of really good, thoughtful, catchy and creative stuff. Sticking with ex-Beatles, George Harrison's Cloud 9 is a no-brainer. As far as Cheap Trick goes, I like the pick above but would list Bang, Zoom, Crazy, Hello as mine. That album sounds like vintage CT and kicks all kinds of ass. But Johnny Cash's American Recordings is the clear runaway winner.
  11. I have been saying for 8 years that the US presidential elections have been mirroring those in South Africa. Jacob Zuma was elected in SA just a few years before Trump and was a thuggish, corrupt, greedy SOB who used political capital and appealed to the uneducated masses. He tried to overthrow a re-election loss. He had supporters riot and loot. He was indicted on several serious charges and was booted out of office. Now (as of today, this minute) SA election returns show that his previous party (the ANC) will no longer have a majority -- unthinkable just a few years ago, given that it's the party of Mandela and the main Black South African's party -- because Zuma broke off and created his own MAGA-like party. He's gotten about 15% of the vote. It's destroyed the ANC majority, but has also splintered the Black South African vote tremendously. When Trump loses in November, I don't see how the same thing doesn't happen here. He'll have an idiotic MAGA party and the Republican Party will splinter. I can't wait.
  12. I realize that his base will excuse away the convictions and convince themselves that he’s the real victim. But when are they going to get tired of his constant insipid whining? Every time he opens his mouth he is complaining and crying about being wronged. It’s insufferable. Fucking whiny snowflake.
  13. truth And kudos to Lefau -- we want those north shore kids from Kahuku, as well as the west side guys from Waianae. Those dudes do not mess around.
  14. Shoeless hippie vs deer. That may be the least hood fight I've ever seen.
  15. Taking a walk in the evening with the dog and wife, light breeze, kids playing basketball in driveways, people having dinners and drinks on patios, bugs chirping, light still in the sky at 8pm. Summertime.
  16. "We're gonna run it" is fucking awesome.
  17. When Dabo left Alabama as the wide receivers coordinator to become Clemson's wide receiver coordinator, was that quitting or winning? I'm confused.
  18. I was just thinking on the way to work today what a mess Clemson is with him at the reins, totally ignoring the portal. I'd be so pissed if I was a Clemson fan, knowing that I'd be stuck with this fucking guy and all of his holier than thou hypocritical bullshit, and knowing we are headed down a long slide into shitsville. But since I'm not a Clemson fan, haha. Enjoy irrelevancy.
  19. I don't get it. I thought the SEC was murderer's row top to bottom, according to aggy, and that we couldn't possibly handle the week-to-week grind. But now we're lucky to have such an easy SEC slate, and so it's terribly unfair to all other teams that we've been gifted this patsy schedule. Pretzel logic indeed.
  20. Saw CSS in Denver last night. They are such a blast. Described by some as Brazil's B-52's, but they had a harder edge live. They are super endearing and hilarious. The singer (Lovefoxx) introduced a song called Fuck Everything saying it was about how much they love pizza. They also did a mashup of Sleater-Kinney and Jennifer Lopez. Good times. IMG_6580.MOV
