  1. I'm serious. The message has been sent (if it hasn't already): Your President and Vice President have given you their tacit blessing to shoot dissidents and protesters, no matter how peaceful or whether they provide zero reasonable threat to public safety, and if you do, there's a stack of pardons on stand by.
  2. And then they would've been shot by ICE.
  3. Smart move. He'll rack up a lot of stats because the CU defense will be on the field so much.
  4. Anything to distract her from Rainy Street patrons.
  5. That sucks. I've been so religiously (and probably neurotically) fixed on fitness over the past 10+ years that whenever I get the slightest tweak that might interrupt my routine, it really pisses me off. Hope you're back at it soon enough.
  6. Some reason why you can't do cardio or legs right now that you can share? Hope everything's okay.

    Mostly the way I'll do it from here on out. My Cajun friend usually put her chicken in the pot at the beginning of the long simmer (sometimes bone in, sometimes boneless pieces), and her family didn't give two shits about stringy chicken. But I like the non-stringy version, and for what it's worth, it makes the money shot look more appealing.

    I've always put in seafood the last 10-15 minutes. I put in sausage for about the last 30 minutes. But I usually put in raw chicken right after I've brought the stock down to a simmer after the roux and trinity are set, and keep that on the stove for a couple hours. That often leads to stringy chicken, which I really don't mind. But for my last batch of gumbo on New Year's Eve, I put in the chicken for just the last hour and it turned out perfect -- fully cooked and no stringy debris. Stayed that way for leftovers the next day. I'm probably telling most on this thread what they already know. But if you want to avoid stringy chicken in the gumbo, cook it for only an hour or so before serving.
  9. I'm so white that snow asks me for advice, and I think this is a great choice.
  10. Actively fearing for their safety will make most of those goons feel more trigger-happy and bulletproof.
  11. Yeah, we keep trying to tell that to her.
  12. Could I interest you in salad puns and regional BBQ?
  13. Probably should take out the "2025" and make this a perennial thread, but here's the question of the day: I'm 51, and am reading more about fitness for men in their 50s, particular weightlifting. A lot of internet sources I'm reading say that one of the keys to maintaining (and even building) lean muscle mass in your 50s and beyond is rest/recovery days. In terms of recovery, if I've lifted on consecutive days, it's never the same muscle group two days in a row, as I've generally stuck to the push/lower body/pull cycle. But I've read that since your ability to recover slows as you age, it's even more important to have at least one full recovery day following a lifting session, and maybe two full days as you get into your late 50s and 60s. The recovery day can include light cardio, stretching, yoga, walking, etc. But just not lifting, even if you're working a completely different muscle groups. In terms of new years resolutions/goals, I'm now thinking of incorporating more recovery days into my lifting cycle. So, how often do you olds work in rest days for your fitness routines?
  14. Might be the best hire out there.
  15. And her family wouldn't trade those millions to have her back.
  16. I've said it before -- my wife and I really hope her daughter goes to Arkansas. But for some reason, she wants to go to a school where little to none of her classmates are going, and a lot of kids from her high school end up in Arkansas. So we're looking at other options that fit her bill -- large state school with robust athletics in the South (she won't do cold weather and a lot of rain).
  17. Is Colt his roommate at the hospital? Get well, Shipley.
  18. This post reminds me how much I enjoyed the process of my daughter applying to college. The exploration, the nervousness, the excitement, the anticipation, the growth . . . all before the acceptances and final decisions. And it's all still at a time when you don't realize they're gone in a blink of an eye.
  19. It is. Add to that Foul Play, Oh! Heavenly Dog, Under the Rainbow, and Modern Problems, all before 1982. The guy was on a fucking roll.
