  1. One of the things I like about term limits is that it keeps someone holding office from spending all of their time trying to get re-elected instead of doing things that matter.
  2. That is an awesome photo..... That ship has seen a lot of stuff.
  3. Made our Galveston trip a couple of weeks ago. Had not been there in probably 30 years. We did the NASA thing on the way down and enjoyed it very much. The tour of Mission Control where they put us in the observation room overlooking the control room and then did a re-creation of the Apollo moon landing was very cool. Rented a really cool house about 2 blocks from the seawall very close to Gaido's. Gaido's was absolutley incredible. Service was amazing and the food was off the charts. All three of our adult dinners we ordered had crab meat on top and it was the best crab meat I ever tasted. Mine was with jalapeno bacon wrapped shrimp. Amazing. Rented umbrellas and chairs each day so it was no hassle. Always found a free parking space on the seawall right where we were going to be sitting. Always went early though (around 9AM) Beach was in great shape as was the water. Visited the Pleasue Pier on Saturday night. It was fine but nothing to write home about. Grankids had fun which is all that mattered. Visited the Strand on our getaway day and it was pretty cool. Those old buildings and houses have a lot of history. Will definitely go back even though I am more of a Port A guy.
  4. Saw something on National Geographic recently about baboons and one of the things that stood out was that a 175 pound baboon has the strength of 7 men.
  5. The answer to all of your questions is money...............always.
  6. Great movie.
  7. Went to the Belt Sander Races at The Gaff in PA years ago. Not sure what year but it was right around the time that bride ran off wearing a diaper so she would not have to stop for the bathroom. I know this beacuse one of the sanders was named the Runaway Bride and was wearing a veil.
  8. Love me some T-Bone steaks and some T-Bone Walker.
  9. Very nice.....
  10. I live in Georgetown and Monument is definitley legit, especially for breakfast. Great biscuits and homade preserves. Pancakes are incredible too.
  11. Wow......quite dusty in my office right now.
  12. Actually only idiots listen to sports talk to begin with. Do you really want to listen to what “Dave in Waco” has to ask? Listen to music and just watch the games live. Fuck all of the other bullshit out there. Thank me later.
  13. 10 and 8
  14. Taking my granddaughters to Galveston next week with a stop at NASA on the way down. Have not been to Galveston in at least 30 years (I am a Port A guy). Any suggestions would be great.
  15. Wut ? She made a lot of great movies and she can definitely act.
  16. That seems kind of strange.
  17. Congrats on the championship. That is a hell of a team LSU has and they are fun to watch.
