  1. Same with me on the Pacific. I read all the books and have actually taught Sledge's book in my US history class. It's such a great memoir on war and specifically that war. I just felt that the Pacific lacked the cohesion of BoB and the acting was sometimes suspect. God, did I love how the portrayed Basilone's MoH though. We had to recreate that in Bootcamp once. He did it all fucking night under continuous enemy fire and a scalded arm. So good.
  2. Pretty sure I've watched BoB at least 30 times all the way through and The Pacific maybe 3 or 4. It's just less cohesive and smooth as BoB but definitely somewhat more realistic to how war really is as it can be.
  3. They have been for a while. I love the peace and quiet out there. It's kind of nice since I have lived in the city now for most of my adult life. Driving up from Austin as well. Haven't been in maybe 3 or 4 years.
  4. My zip code is actually in Levant thank you very much.
  5. Just Northwest of Colby.
  6. We're going out to western Kansas to my stepdad's farm for Thanksgiving where they will somehow pack a million family members in a small ranch style home. There's no cable so Fox News cannot be prominently displayed. Instead, they will act out their own Fox News style news channel with their favorite GOP talkings points of the day bereft of any logic or creative thinking. I will be downing copious amounts of beers and probably out shooting guns to alleviate the stress. Then, for xmas we will be going to Birmingham to be around my MiL and SiL who are both full blown alcoholics and both are batshit nuts. There's always a drunken incident or two involving the sister. Should be fun. And the mom is a narcissist with borderline personality disorder. The sister desperately needs to go to rehab as she is completely dependent on alcohol at this point and she's bipolar. CAN'T. WAIT.
  7. They changed their name from Papas and Beer to Papas and Pirates in Rosarito?
  8. Year of the boomerang mother fuckers.
  9. Just another bombtrack bitches.
  10. Topeka is spot on. Modesto and Stockton would have to be a tie in NoCal an Bakersfield/Victorville/Twentynine Palms being SoCal. Birmingham is actually a nice place. There are way worse places in Bama. Jackson is spot on.
  11. RIght, because they weren't already paying them, and their recruiting base is so deep out there right now.
  12. They're already in the entertainment business. Have you been UT the last several years? I mean they have their own network don't they?
  13. It was fine.
  14. OU's players are just manhandling us. Gotta get to that next level Herman.
  15. Your mom's rigged.
  16. One whole log of Cop at a time?
  17. I've watched every single horrendous KC playoff loss. I'm also a grown man with a life and am enjoying the shit out of watching this team play offense. We've never been to a Super Bowl in my lifetime yet they are definitely contenders.
  18. He's never had Mahomes. I have the small hope that Mahomes will negate Reid's horrendous playoff coaching ability.
  19. Everyone has as much fun watching their teams as us Chiefs fans do right?
  20. Is there a greater episode in the history of television than the suburbs? Whenever they show what they're doing with the trash and freaking lose it.
  21. I was in the Marine Corps eating breakfast around 6 am PST in Twentynine Palms. That entire week was insane to say the least.
  22. Just finished listening to this on Audible. It's truly an amazing book and a stunning tribute to all involved.
  23. Exactly. Improve and get better. If they don't then get pissed at the coaching.
