  1. He stayed between the ditches with Journey. He showed his stuff later. That said, to your point, his effort on that clip didn't match the original, and he admitted as such. It's kind of an unfair fight, though.
  2. Who's a good boy? Buddy, that's who.
  3. That was your first chili cookoff? Newbie.
  4. Steve Smith is truly one of the greatest rock & fusion drummers of all time. "Monster" is a legit tag.
  5. $1.1M for six months of work. He could do worse. He's never going to be a consistent NFL starter. It was a smart decision.
  6. Oh, I definitely think your path is more common than mine, especially with the proliferation of STEM curricula in high school.
  7. If the bathtub is leaking while draining, that seems like there is a leak in the drain line. Your plumbers didn't think of this?
  8. Dang. Buddy Miller, too.
  9. It's only one data point, but I was set to take a national merit scholarship to study finance at a B1G school. Fall semester my senior year of HS, my dad (an engineering prof) said to me "you know, you're really good at math and you love music and hifi -- have you considered studying acoustics?" It had never occurred to me. I ended up studying mech eng undergrad and then acoustics at UT for grad school (via the mech eng department). I am so fucking glad I didn't study finance.

    I'm not a huge fan of their dry rubs, but those sammiches are damn good.
  11. I think Dando's demons have outpaced his talents, and he's a really talented guy.
  12. I was only able to watch the first half last night. Did we really hang with them in the 2nd half or was UConn on cruise control?
  13. HEB (and even moreso Central Market for selection) kick ass on bulk spices.
  14. Not yet
  15. Gosh, it would be terrible if he were broke.
  16. Absolutely.
  17. DAMMIT
  18. At this point in his career that seems like a good move. He's not likely to ever be much beyond an emergency starter, so he could pull a Colt and get a healthy 8-12 years in the league, decent pay and his pension. Go sell commercial real estate next.
  19. I think I was about 7 years old when that was one of the big games on the playground. I'm pretty sure I didn't really know what "queer" meant. It seemed like a generic pejorative term to me. Good for Bijan for owning it. Time to move on.
  20. Because their media does not tell them the truth. Only now, with the costs of food etc. well higher than just a few years ago are some of the dim bulbs starting to glow.
  21. Holy crap, she NAILS the Joni MItchell vibe:
  22. It's a bit like the old saying "on your deathbed, you'll never regret travel taken". In this case, "on your deathbed, you'll never regret buying that guitar".
  23. Hell, I'd rather have the gravy than the CFS.
  24. Yup. 2019 in Athens. UGA won 19-13.
