It’s an excellent book.
John Krakauer is probably my favorite documentary writer of all time. He's lived an amazing, wild life and tells his stories in such compelling and relatable ways.
Back to topic at hand... magic hats.
Magic Hats
Sure burning bushes and walking on water are also wild... but oh wait, I need a magic hat is next level dumbass shit. It's Monty Python type shit. Its no space lizards in volcanoes level insanity, but in its own way, more outlandish. "Let me put this here magic treasure finding stone in my hat. That'll help me remember."
Okay Jimmy Swagger, just don't fuck the hookers.

So there's no hope of him coming back with the charges dropped? Maybe BYU will not give such a lengthy suspension now?
I'm with others on the fence of guilt vs innocence on the part of the accused. It's definitely a tricky subject and someone was absolutely wronged.
That said, putting on the shoes of the accused, IF wrongly so, I sure as hell wouldn't want to stay in the city where it occurred. It feels part, fuck you BYU for not having my back and part I'm getting the fuck out of this town. Which, even if guilty tracks for a shitty human.

I'm sure UF and Miami won't use that to negatively recruit against FSU.
Shit, if there is a 5* FSU recruit and Texas is interested, I'd bet heavy loot Surly Legal Mafia would show up pro bono to a meeting, FSU legal terms in hand offering to clarify specifics to said recruit.
Pretty sure there are a few Surly Gator fans floating around that would probably do the same.
Its idiotic on the part of FSU, truly.

Every plea bargain saves money. No mistake about that. And frees up resources for other things.
And yeah, among its other problems, death penalty cases are massively expensive and resource-intensive.
And the expenses continue long after conviction due to understandable legal appeals. Which, I fully support, for the record.

You have just described why Marcus DuPree committed to Texas. He wanted to be able to tell dozens of other schools to buzz off while he entertained bids from the real suitors- OU, Mississippi State, Southern Miss and Pittsburgh (Sherrill was the coach). Texas was the stalking horse.
Texas finally figured it out and started recruiting Anthony Byerly a couple of weeks before signing day.Yep, Dupree, Ryan Perrilloux, Brockermeyer lots of examples with various turns and twist. Good amount have gone in our favor late under Sark.

I know shit about fuck, but I can speculate.
-The House settlement: for 10-20 programs, this limits what they will pay players. For the rest of FBS, it requires them to pay their players more than they had been. (Note- this money comes from the AD and I’ll bet every AD, not just OU’s, has to sweat to varying degrees to come up with it).
-The surprising thing to me is how rarely we are seeing pissant programs, now required to budget $15-17M for players, sign blue chips.
-I suspect Texas is being outbid by programs ready to challenge the limits of the NIL Clearinghouse. Such challenges are a solid bet.
-I think the Texas program doesn’t want to back from competition. I don’t think the Tower is likely to force them to do so, as happened under Cunningham. If the Tower does, we will know when we see Sark take another job. (Not saying that is the only reason he would leave, but there is no way he is going to allow himself to become David MacWilliams or late term Akers)-If these recruitments are about NIL, then it’s smart to wait until the end for your final bid. All the other cards are laid down, you know the cost, you know the other player options, you know more about the recruit, and you have a sense of where regulation of rules is.
Agree on you broadly, but particularly agree on the bid aspect. If it's an open bidding situation, the more discovery you can get the better your bid submission. That even allows, in certain cases, for you to opt out if there isn't enough value. Putting in a final offer early is detrimental to the value proposition of the bid AND competitive advantage. In fact, its madly advantageous to the players as they now have a low bar minimum to evaluate other offers.
Accepting an offer from a school you have no interest in attending is a common practice. How many readers here applied to a backup university they knew that unless shit went sideways they were never attending. Hell, one was throwing money AND credit hours at me. A lot of them. I was NEVER going there, in fact, I probably would have just gone to CC and worked my way into a decent place.

It's been established that you're clearly wrong regarding what Twin Peaks was all about, unsurprisingly. What hasn't been addressed is why you think the demographics of this forum would suggest an interest in show for "teen girls" from the '90s?
Well, in the idiot's defense, David Lynch (RIP) was well know for his copious amounts of teen-girl audience film productions.
Say, say fuck me, say it!

Look, Dale Cooper is an amazing lawman and all around human being. He’s willing to embrace a cosmos far greater than himself and that he’ll never fully understand. And he doesn’t forget to appreciate the simple things in life, like a cup of coffee or Heather Graham’s backend.
But he’s not winning a fight against the Kwisatz fucking Haderach.
No doubt, and while I appreciate you and your mad worm riding skills, I'm just saying:

I would be shocked if this was not the eventual outcome. Adrenaline is a hell of a drug.
True, but man.... pulling a Dr Strangelove on that missile would have been a far better way to go.

Those poor bastards rolling out of it must've been fried. No idea how they weren't instant crispies.
Did you see the missiles launch through the top of the cabin. First question, how are they literally in one piece. Second, how are they not well done Asian Skewers of meat. Holy shit.
Honestly, think death may have been a better outcome. As a past victim of 3rd degree burns on a small part of my body, I don’t even wish that on the Orc buddies the NORKS.

I read political and entertainment news fairly frequently. I'm always quick to pick up on what I think is rose glass over commit take on a subject, conservative take and a hedge. It's not difficult to do so.
This, this right fucking here is a master class piece on on the over commit sunshine hedge. Maybe, possibly, but then we know if ands or but because sometimes, and yet!!! For sure, and you know for sure means probably but...

No argument there ^^^ but did you forget you were talking about the cultural divide?
Standard Chinese is the official language of both China and Taiwan. Standard Chinese is the Mandarin dialect. Other dialects include Cantonese (the most famous), Fukinese, Hokkien, Wu, etc. Taiwanese Mandarin and Beijing Mandarin have differences the same way Central Texas English and New York English have differences - there are different words for some things i.e. buses, phones, foods. The way they pronounce words is different - sometimes Beijingers add an R to the ends of words, sometimes they add an SH where there's only an S. I speak Mandarin. It's the exact same language with different regional pronunciations. The difference is what you'd hear between a Californian and a New Yorker.
I'm aware of all that information. The variance in the same language in different areas or countries are called regional dialects. I said the dialects were different, not the language. So basically you just reinforced my point on language all while ignoring all the various recent cultural and mindset divides between Taiwan and China. If you are indeed Taiwanese, I'm rather shocked you don't agree with your fellow countrymen's position. However, you're certainly entitled to your opinion.

Ain't that the shit.
We've got a bunch of Christian extremists supporting a bunch of Jewish extremists because the Christian extremists want to accelerate the end of the world while the Jewish extremists believe that their sky daddy gave them some special dirt along with permission to kill everyone who's already living on that dirt.
Meanwhile, we got a bunch of Muslim extremists pissed off at the Jewish extremists because some magic man floated up to a sky paradise from that piece of dirt, plus, they were already there.
This, and an unquenchable thirst for oil, is what's driving our foreign policy for a big ol' chunk of this little blue dot we all have to share.
Lovely.
Best part of all is that they all started with the same fucking playbook. The entire fight is over the sequel.
And oil.

Something that has not been mentioned yet is the very, very close ties between LDS and MLM.
They are damn near one and the same. Many of the biggest ones are all based and run by higher up members in LDS. They run a great shell game.
Speaking of shell games, cults and areas of specialization, the pure, poorly written fictional cult of Scientology is a massive player in the Hollywood scene.
Though most of them honestly pale in comparison to my people's Cathonlic shenanigans.
Snake handling rednecks are among the creepiest at a visceral level though.
