Has Derry Girls been mentioned in a while? Just finished my annual rewatch and every time it gets funnier. If you haven’t seen it - highly recommend.
I'm currently enjoying David Donnelly in the Bodyguard, also on Netflix

Were the Bene Gesserit fighters in any of the books? That seems odd. I’ve only read the first two.

Watched Attack on Wembley. Interesting though overall didn’t bite as hard as it could
Watched that shortly after the "Attack on Hard Rock" during the Copa America final. I am a pretty big soccer fan, and I didn't remember anything about Wembley. Interesting parallels, these

Avett Brothers last night at Smart Financial Center in Sugar Land. First time to that venue and I was impressed. Tickets were center stage in the very back row and the sound was fantastic. One of the best TAB shows we've seen. Going to NYC to see Swept Away next month...

I think I got most of that through teh aids. I was planning on buying the vanguard-specific rings from Talley. Are you saying don't do that?

Honestly as long as the shops have the right gear they’ll be fine.
What are you thinking? Nightforce? Swarovski?Swaro z3 3-10 x 42. It's going on a WB vanguard .308. Carters Country has the Leupold VX3 3-10.5 for $399 until 11/2, so I have been waffling back and forth between that, trijicon huron/credo/accupoint, and the swaro. They had Zeiss V4 for $650 recently but that sale expired last week. Kind of stuck in analysis paralysis as to eye relief, bolt handle clearance on the eyepiece, ring height right now. I figure the swaro is right about 1:1 on the rifle/optic ratio, so might as well. This will primarily be a whitetail and hog rifle with shots within 200 yards, so I want something simple and don't need to mess with dialing on this rig.

I think I've seen it mentioned upthread, but who do we like for gunsmithery in Houston? I'm thinking about getting a little spendy on an optic for new deer rifle and if so, would be looking to get it professionally mounted. I've done my other scopes myself with a plastic level and flashlight-though-objective technique, but I want this one done proper like.

So what’s the best current value for something to whack pigs at night from 100-120 yards? All the feeders at my lease are very close and I want something easy and cost effective so I don’t feel bad sending a teenager out to use it. I got a hog light last year and it sucked so I’m looking for something better than that.
Maybe NV instead of thermal?https://pulsarnv.com/collections/digital-nv-riflescopes
Cheapest Pulsar?

I've got a sightmark wraith that was around $400 I think? I've taken it out a few times and it is good out to about 100 yds with the stock IR illuminator. It would be better with an upgraded illuminator like the coyote cannon or similar. I didn't want to make the full thermal investment for as little as I am able to get out at night, and so far it's served its purpose. It's a bit of a pain to have to deal with the separate illuminator, and follow up shots are impossible as the smoke from the shot reflects the IR and washes out the picture. With a little more in the budget, I'd go thermal, especially as the prices continue to come down

best option is fly into LGA, uber to White Bear in Flushing for ~$15, crush two orders of Szechuan wontons, LIRR to Penn $11

a lot of these shows can be found on the sub channels for OTA HD broadcasts. Was just enjoying some Fall Guy on 2-2 in Houston the other day. You'll need rabbit ears...and a TV guide

I watched Shot Caller on Netflix last night. I was totally into it. Slow and gritty. It had a HEAT/Miami Vice feal to it. BUT....
I did not understand the ending at all. I went on Redit to get some interpretations, but I still think the ending was off the rails.
There's another gritty prison movie that I liked. Felon (2008). It involves a regular dad that hits a burgler with a bat and kills him. (Not a spoiler, it's in the trailer) Then he goes to prison hell. I found it streaming on Tubi for free. If you liked Shot Caller you will probably like Felon.

I'd like to thank whoever it was that recently celebrated the Ruger Mark IV because that was the final push needed to acquire a Mark IV Target and top it with a Holosun 507c. Initial range reports are highly encouraging, and the RDS appears to be just what my left-eye dominance needed. Looking forward to ringing steel this weekend

Now that it's streaming on HBO, I watched last week. Agree with what others have said that Costner's trying to do too much and it probably would have been better structured as a series. That said, solid effort. Nowhere near as bad as some have said. Some beautiful cinematography. Overall, I enjoyed it and am looking forward to Chapter 2.

The Conversation - Saw this earlier today at The Alamo and it could easily be a Hitchcock movie. Paranoia, femme fatales, betrayals, etc, etc. It is the Coppola classic I have missed, so I wanted to see it. It lived up to its' reputation. Really excellent. The sound design was very interesting and Hackman in his prime. I thought the resolution was excellent and unexpected. Coppola's '72-'74 run is incredible.
legend has it Hackman's character in the conversation is the younger version of his character in Enemy of the State

lest we forget that much of what made Costner movies good was Kevin Reynolds. Will likely check this one out soon as the price is getting closer to right

My wife is dead set on a ghost tour this time. I’m not a fan, but I know that acquiescing to this will lead to wild drunk kid-free hotel sex.
