  1. Well, Shark Week starts Sunday, so yeah.
  2. Why would that be surprising? I've read that historically speaking, something like 30%-50% of 6th/7th round picks make the roster.
  3. Sumbay, Doubby Sumbay
  4. I love that song. (Primitive Radio Gods, not the BB King source, which I don't actually know.)
  5. Head out for the big Coldplay concert with your subordinate side piece, get caught on camera, become a national laughingstock and have your wife drop your name from her social media presence all within 18 hours. That guy has straight shooter written all over him.
  6. You are out of the loop. It's a club. "Oh, you're c-suite? We have a board opening on our non-profit, it would be a good stepping stone. Let's talk." Some fraction become CEOs and they they're on the for-profit boards and everybody makes bank accordingly and lather, rinse, repeat. A significant majority of the c-suiters are worthless.
  7. Evidence would suggest Jagger/Richards aren't greedy bastards when it comes to songwriting credits. Keef's daughter famously noticed the Stones' "Anybody Seen My Baby" was a cop of kd lang's "Constant Craving", however inadvertent, and so they added kd lang and Ben Mink as songwriters.
  8. Get off the sauce. I'm pretty sure I'm reading the thread I started since I'm having to comment on your bitchass scolding of people who are asking relevant questions. Go be a thread cop somewhere else.
  9. You could just ignore questions that bother you so much.
  10. Who are their 10 draft picks?
  11. Coldplay sucks so bad we chose to watch Kanye at ACL Fest instead. Then Kanye sucked so we wandered over to watch Coldplay, who confirmed our earlier suspicions, so we went to Magnolia Cafe and I had Eggs Zapatino and all was well. The end.
  12. Jesus on a Big Wheel, ztejas. Gatekeep on another thread.
  13. Today I learned there is something called Apache Airflow and I decided to punch myself in the face.
  14. I think it was just a trust fall.
  15. I just wonder what heinous mortal sins those 27+ girls committed in order for Jesus to let them drown at Camp Mystic.
  16. My wife laughs at me when I stay up overnight if severe weather is on the horizon. The is zero percent chance I would have gone to bed had I been at one of those camps.
  17. Much as I enjoy laughing at A&M's persistent buffoonery, I think the rule that once someone declares for the draft he is no longer eligible to play college football is silly. I would put that point of no return at the signing of his NFL contract. Will we hear "Texas Fight"?
  18. That was what I expected to be the first answer, and I agree.
  19. I've owned some electrostats -- Martin Logans and Eminent Technologies -- the latter were considerably better than the former. They threw an effortless soundstage, but still needed a dynamic woofer. Honestly, I think the Magnepans I owned (which were their budget model) were even better, and not electrostats, but still a panel speaker. That's probably where I'd head next if I wanted some giant full range panels (+ a sub if needed).
  20. No need to limit it to rap or hiphop, any genre, who you got? I heard this the other day and it got me thinking:
  21. Just another kook physics book. I just fixed grammar for the most part.
  22. Well, he paid me a decent amount to edit his book, so if he's a sock, he's a sock who pa(id) his bills.
  23. Oh wow, I thought that was the hybrid integrated. Power amp only?
  24. So cool. I know it's a hybrid, but some day I want to go full tubes (pre + power) and drive a bigass set of electrostatics (not branded "Martin Logan", I've had those and wasn't a fan).
