  1. A looooong time ago, we had some major weather event happening and News 8 was live-monitoring it, and in the middle of Burton talking, the station cut away for something non-weather-related. When they came back, he was livid - started addressing the camera and said something like "I canNOT believe this station cut away from this extreme weather event coverage to show [whatever]..." Burton is [was? is he still there?] always so chipper but he totally lost his shit. It was great.
  2. More drunk forecasts/weather analysis, please. For Surly. I still crack up thinking about the one you did during Harvey.
  3. That's Dan Fogelberg.
  4. My two have been fight over this stick since Friday. Rocket usually gets the upper hand. He's managed to scare Edgar off several times, even though Edgar has a good 20 lbs on him. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  5. Good point. I was thinking that she'd use it to kill more than just White Walkers.
  6. It looks like a detachable dragonglass spearhead, that screws on to the spear. I'm wondering if it's hollowed out somewhat so she can put poison in it, a la Oberyn Martell.
  7. The real lesson of the show will be revealed: the most important thing is, indeed, not breakfast, but family.
  8. Lots of booming and heavy rain in Milwood but nothing too crazy. Knock on wood.
  9. Bullet dodged.
  10. Older son had a soccer game at 8 am at Town and Country. If you've ever played there, it was on the field that is the farthest away from any parking lot - maybe a 7-10 minute walk. I thought the fields would close before the game, but no such luck, so the kids and I went over and got there around 7:45. We haul all our shit out there, get set up in the drizzle, play 7 minutes, then it thundered. That means a 30-minute delay and we have to go wait in our cars. We go back to the cars, thinking they were going to call it the next time it thundered. Alas, they apparently did not hear the next boom because we were sent back out after the 30 minutes was up. So we schlepped everything back again, they blow the whistle, and that's when it really started raining. No thunder though, so the kids played the entire thing in steady, mostly hard rain. By the time it ended even us spectators were soaked. On the way home, we grabbed some kolaches to go (because everyone deserved a treat), came home, dried off, and are now watching a movie and I'm not stepping a foot outside for a long time. Tldr: It was a shitty morning for a soccer game.
  11. She can't be in a wheelchair, no cane, no gray hair. So...you like me because I'm not elderly? Yes. And as I aforementioned, you have a killer dumpster.
  12. Are all your shoes and socks accounted for? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  13. I was supposed to take the kids on a Cub Scout trip this weekend but backed out bc of the weather. I have no interest in finding out how the tent holds up to its wind rating when it's just me, a 7-yo and a 10-yo. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. Terry: I hate that we lose to those pasty-assed mole people every year. Holt: Oh, there's no point in mincing your words. They're knaves!
  15. What exactly will you be cutting and how much and can I watch you do it while eating pork crackins?
  16. Leon! I need a statement! Spokane. Standard "thoughts and prayers"? Bullseye.
  17. I'm loving his husband on Twitter.
  18. He really has giant hands compared to the rest of his body. I wonder how much is muscle and how much is just hand size. I was cracking up at his face after they show the lizard in that one clip - it was the first time I'd noticed how his hair was sticking out everywhere and he looked kind of crazy. Then it's followed by his nonchalant description of what it feels like to have a bat hit your hand while climbing. And then "I had a friend get bitten by a rattlesnake on a boulder in Yellowstone. But that's just bad luck." LOL.
  19. Mainly I am a fan of her comedic talent, and of Liz Lemon, but we do have a few shared superficial qualities. Both dark-haired, dark-eyed, and glasses-wearing, and we both enjoy some good night cheese. Well, I guess it's technically Liz Lemon with the night cheese, but I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of that character was based on reality.
  20. I remember waking up and hearing about this the day after it happened. Most of us figured if something like that was going to happen this day and age, it would happen in Vidor, not Jasper. I had bad dreams about it for a while. And it's not like I wasn't aware that we lived where there was an obvious undercurrent of violent racism, but it was much easier to ignore before this happened. I moved to Austin the next year to go to school and have been here ever since.
  21. I thought you meant Tatiana Maslanay. Also this news that P&R may be coming back for a 10th season.
  22. Whoa! He's gotten so big! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  23. The pupper is up to 30 lbs at 15 weeks old. Check out the comparison to when we got him, when he was 10 lbs at 10 weeks old. He's still mostly belly, though. Now: Then: Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
