This interview is a fucking circus.Ā ABC and George Stephanopoulos aren't up to the task.Ā It's style over substance, no real digging deep, an actual nothingburger.Ā Ā
Guess I'll have to buy the book.

So the cop on the right is completely baked, I take it?Ā (Yes, I know . . . ST).

Trudy's has pretty good migas, at least when you're hung over.

Coral snake talk not going away on west Austin ND.
Soon I expect it to break down into "wait, it's red on yellow WHAT?"

I am routinely surprised by people who vouch for the pizza at Pinthouse.Ā I like several of their beers, but the pizza is pretty weak.
In the "not sure anyone actually rates it any more" category, I'll go with Chez Zee.Ā It feels as old as its clientele.
Magnolia Cafe is a hipster pubic hair in your eggs waiting to happen.Ā Kerbey Lane, a little less so, but their food sucks more.
Torchy's is definitely not some kind of taco destination, and for that matter, neither is Taco Deli (although Salsa Dona is legit).

Quote
Statement from R. Lee Ermey's long time manager, Bill Rogin:
It is with deep sadness that I regret to inform you all that R. Lee Ermey ("The Gunny") passed awayĀ this morning from complications of pneumonia. He will be greatly missed by all of us. It is a terrible loss that nobody was prepared for. He has meant so much to so many people. And, it is extremely difficult to truly quantify all of the great things this man has selflessly done for, and on behalf of, our many men and women in uniform. He has also contributed many iconic and indelible characters on film that will live on forever. Gunnery Sergeant Hartman of Full Metal Jacket fame was a hard and principled man. The real R. Lee Ermey was a family man, and a kind and gentle soul. He was generous to everyone around him. And, he especially cared deeply for others in need.
There is a quote made famous in Full Metal Jacket. It's actually the Riflemen's Creed. "This is my rifle. There are many like it, but this one is mine."
There are many Gunny's, but this one was OURS. And, we will honor his memory with hope and kindness. Please support your men and women in uniform. That's what he wanted most of all.
Semper Fi, Gunny. Godspeed.

Leaning electric.Ā Thanks for all the advice.Ā No carburetor is a big deal.Ā I can replace batteries.Ā I doubt the motor will need to be rewound . . . ever.Ā (I guess I should look for brushless.)

No doubt the lesson taught very early on is to curl right after crossing the bag.Ā
I certainly won't lose any sleep over the play, but capnamerca's explanation still doesn't clarify to me what it means to LEAVE the baseline.Ā In my mind that implies a change in direction towards second (assuming he is correct in that it doesn't require crossing the white line).Ā Neither seemed to happen, although the criticism for not curling towards the dugout is obviously valid.Ā Take the ump out of the play.

What most of you donāt realize, & it is clearly stated above, you do NOT have to cross the baseline.
Ā
Then what does "leave the baseline" mean?

Temporary retardation is the only reasonable explanation. Trump has ALWAYS been an extreme narcissist who is 100%Ā certain he is the smartest person involved in any situation. Which is an unfortunate trait for someone who is almost always the stupidestĀ motherfucker in the room. I say "almost" because presumably there must beĀ Ā times heĀ meets with Rick Perry.
Why you gotta be so mean to

maninblack has been consistently against all foreign intervention like thisĀ for years. His libertarianism is rooted in the non-aggression principle and itās not negotiable.
That may be misguided in itself orĀ his take on some things might veer too much into the conspiracy theorists campĀ for some. Fine. Debate that. But to act like heās a Russian shill is pretty disingenuous given his pretty vocal history.
The guy thinks ISIS is backed by the United States.

I was really skeptical of it at first, but I am a Peeliever. When I heard it involved a Russian hooker Golden Shower, I dismissed it. When I found out the allegation was Trump had prostitutes piss in the bed that Obama slept in, it seems totally in character for him. As more details are confirmed about the dossier, this looks more and more likely. I don't know if we'll ever see it, but I think the pee tape and more exist.Ā
I don't think most people care.Ā If he was actually getting pissed ON, that would be different, but watching Trump direct some hookers to piss on a bed would be perceived as just more crass behavior by a crass man.

Some like being continually lied to. Or they're just tools.So when the media reports what the government states as truth you're blaming the media?Ā That's pretty fucking convenient . . . and stupid.

Tremendous loudspeakers.Ā I used to own them -- I moved down to the Triton 7 because I'm now in a smaller room -- it's the best tweeter I have ever heard.
I didn't realize they were shutting down.Ā I'll have to swing by.
