  1. I can tell not a damn one o y'all teach.

    Goals with students are for them to

    1. Be there

    2. Have some awareness of what the subject is

    3. Be sober

    4. Put down the phone

    5. I said put down the fucking phone

    6. Gotdammit if you won't put down the fucking phone, then use it to google Mariano Azuela and the Revolutionary Mexican Novel

    7. Oh, so you don't have any data left on your fucking phone? Go to the board and conjugate "Ser". Hell yeah I'm serious. All y'all go up there with him, and help.

     

    "Opening minds", "Shouting down", "Safe Spaces"-- crackers, that don't even make the list.

  2. Just inherited my great-great grandfather's 1894 or 1895 Waltham pocket watch. Hunter design. Took it to the jeweler to see what he needed to do to fix it.

    Jeweler wound it, sucker cranked right up. I've been carrying it around using it to tell time.

  3. I figure with a bunch of fat middle-aged grumps like us, a bunch have trained in Martial Arts, aka, Taking Something Other than a Gun to a Gun fight.

    Me I did Shoto-Kan Karate so long ago all I can remember is how to count to 5 in Japanese, while screaming.

    Did some Wing Chun Kung Fu last year but let it slip before I learned how to defend myself from my sword-wielding green-haired girlfriend.

    Currently fencing, doing Epee. Got my "E" in December, so almost good enough to be an extra in a pirate movie.

    Y'all?

     I want to go to Austin before I die.

    Dude, it's really easy to go to Austin. You don't need a game. I-59 over to I-20, there are various cut-throughs depending on whether you want speed or back roads. Hell, we could do it together, take turns driving. One long day on the road and we're there.

    I could walk you around and show you where the cool stuff used to be.

  5. Hi! I own an up and coming party drink chain called Zulu Igloo! You can get in on the ground floor at Zulu Igloo with your very own Zulu Igloo!

    Zulu Igloo! It's not racist!
