  1. The Zelensky angle that first occurred to me was the sad irony of Trump scolding people to treat MBS with respect after he and JD Couchfucker absolutely went off the rails on Zelensky earlier this year.
  2. So is La Madeleine "fast food" or "fast casual"? I'd probably say the latter, but I could sustain myself there for awhile.
  3. The rooster is hilarious. I hope his name is "Todd".
  4. "It's political gerrymandering, not racial gerrymandering" seems a distinction without much difference.
  5. Dismemberment, defenestration, polonium tea, there are options.
  6. Fogerty was on Steven Colbert last night. Colbert interviewed him and then he performed a medley of hits. The first 3 were a little rough, given his 80 year old voice, but he wrapped it up with "Fortunate Son", and his anger was palpable.
  7. That's so cool. Sport?
  8. We need to use that phrase on Saturday: "Quiet, Piggy."
  9. Does it have to be a chain? Because Top Notch has a nice variety of pretty good options, (but no breakfast).
  10. What, they couldn't cram Guy Clark onto that bill? Psssh.
  11. Is that capo'ed to C#m? I haven't tried to figure it out yet. A couple of thoughts: 1. Stapleton gets insanely great guitar tones, and it's nothing complicated. Great hands, great guitars, great amps. 2. I want that Firebird bass.
  12. Dry goods (TP, paper towels, detergent, etc.) still work for empty nesters, but yeah, I'm not buying a 5-pack of nice ribeyes and freezing 3 of them just to save a couple of bucks per pound.
  13. I don't disagree with much of what you've said regarding sonics, but the whole MTV look and feel of grunge thing was hard to avoid. Oh look, ANOTHER band in ratty flannel shirts and ripped jeans! Haven't seen that in a minute. That said, I always thought Dean DeLeo seemed to come out of the womb as a rock star, not unlike Joe Perry.
  14. Hey, we landed Austin Goosby. At least Miller will have some talent to work with for awhile.
  15. True, but the actual spigot he had turned was in central California. And, it was a colossal waste that was a considerable net negative.
  16. That dumbass still thinks there is a water line between central California and Los Angeles. The water he ordered released during the January wildfires didn't get within 100 miles of LA. It partially filled a dry lake bed near Bakersfield.
  17. I don't know, I'll let that slide for a moment. Backstage access isn't always vetted by the artist.
  18. For me I just didn't pay much attention because it felt like they were jumping on the bandwagon, releasing "Core" a year after "Nevermind" and "Ten". I mean, I could hear the hooks but the grunge saturation was ramping up at an incredible pace. I was skeptical of just about everyone.
  19. For the longest time I thought of Robert DeLeo as just the dorky bass player whose brother was the hypercool guitarist. Then I saw that Beato video -- holy shit, that guy is super talented.
  20. I can't believe any of them are still alive.
  21. She was delivering Hot Pockets?
  22. . . . and yet there's a Maudie's a quarter mile away. Still not the best choice in the neighborhood, not by a long shot, but . . . Chuy's? We used to white collar the happy hour at that Chuy's because the work ladies and their friends all wanted to go there. Alrighty, we'll follow.
  23. Don't forget Chuy's!
  24. Oh, she's definitely thinking of a wrongful termination angle. That guy may be a skeez but she went over the line. Sorry you got fired, honey. You deserved it.
