  1. All I know is that song from RRR won best song and that is riotously funny
  2. relevant to the discussion of GOP word salad shitbaggery and Orwell's genius https://www.orwellfoundation.com/the-orwell-foundation/orwell/essays-and-other-works/politics-and-the-english-language/
  3. Going for Super Sunday weekend after next. saba, Compere Lapin, and R'Evolution lined up. Can't wait to get back. I turned around and it's 5 years since the last trip.
  4. they're around in Northwest Live Oak county, but I've only ever seen a sounder in the daylight once. They're on the cameras fairly regularly, and we've got some big loners that pop up now and then, but they're definitely not a problem for us like they are for a lot of areas
  5. woe be unto the man with a basket full of goodies on order from Optics Planet. The modern day equivalent of the wait for the Sears catalog order
  6. similar work ahead for me, though I think I will be doing small triangular enclosures with 2-4 bunces of Little Bluestem in each. Driving T-posts is easily my least favorite chore
  7. years ago I helped stage a screening of Pelada in Houston, directed by Ryan White, who was at the time fresh out of college and made it to town for the show. I've really enjoyed seeing his career arc over the years. He's done a bunch of really solid documentaries since then. /csb
  8. Sorry for partying? Blame Speedtrucker and his ringing endorsement of the 716i in the gun owners thread that made be buy one
  9. I shot my first buck a few weeks ago. On the approach to the blind that morning, I could see a big owl sitting on top of the blind, silhouetted against the sky by the night fires. I wasn't keen to get too close to the blind with it up there, and I was worried that running the owl off might spook the deer. When I finally closed the gap, it alit with absolute silence and was gone over the brush. Pretty cool to experience that. There would be blood on my hands shortly after
  10. shhhhh don't forget dream wings. we got that chicken here man
  11. I'm likely going to be in the market for a modern sporting rifle in the near future, and am looking at something in 7.62 / .308. I stumbled across a Sig 716i at Collectors recently that includes a nikon .308 optic for $1950. That sent me down the rabbit hole of the quasi-AR10 platforms, the Indian army requisition of the 716i for the Northern Command, the new Ruger SFAR, SA Saint Victor. Anybody have any trigger time on any of them? I'm leaning towards the Sig, if only because I'm leery to jump into the first gen Ruger, even if it is a ruger. Midway has the sig without optic for $1499. Hard to argue with that logic. I'm not terribly interested in building anything in AR10. If I was inclined to tinker I'd drop down to AR15, but I need something that packs a bigger punch on hogs and something I can use to hunt whitetail from time to time
  12. If you're among the surly literati, I highly recommend this. I waited months for the audiobook through Libby, and blazed through the 19 hours a couple of months ago. It won't win a pulitzer, but if you liked the movie, you will like this book. https://www.amazon.com/Heat-2-Novel-Michael-Mann/dp/0063241986
  13. 2022 Batch 1 made 10/30 and largely consumed. Still hanging on to a bottle of Alton's from 2021. Will make more after Thanksgiving. Those who deny the nog live sad and empty lives
  14. interview with Gilroy in Rolling Stone https://www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv-movie-features/tony-gilroy-andor-season-two-michael-clayton-sequel-1234597770/
