  1. Which gives these guys enough time to play The Masters and the PGA -- and possibly the US Open, if it doesn't start until late-June. I can see a guy like Phil who's in between the regular and senior tours, or guys like Hoffman who make a living making cuts (NTTAWWT). But for DJ, Bryson, Bubba, it's such a gross money grab. I hope the PGA has the balls to revoke their cards.
  2. The replies to that tweet include rumors that DJ and Bubba have signed on also. And based on Charlie Hoffman's meltdown over the weekend, I think he's probably leaving, too. That's a safe bet.
  3. Anyone else following this?

    The Goldbergs

    I have a loose connection to Adam Goldberg. From everything I've heard about his family, there are plenty more hilarious stories -- and some of the funniest weren't appropriate for network television. Barry is the best. Our whole family really enjoyed the show, but it started to slide when Erica went off to college.
  5. He needed to go a long time ago. They only reason he got the City Manager job was to implement the same building code reforms as Minneapolis. (And we see how that shit show is going.) He has and has shown no accountability, and he can fuck off with Adler and the rest.
  6. Lost power for about 5 minutes. I feel like they're taunting us. The next shoe to drop will be AISD canceling classes tomorrow due to no potable water.
  7. I may have some ill-feelings, but I'm damn sure not gonna let her know I give two shits about her ass -- much less throw a temper tantrum in public. That's the difference.
  8. This fucking Cinn-Temple game is killing me.
  9. Sounds like it's happening. I guess they don't want to take off on March 11 bc they know a bunch of kids play hooky the Friday before Spring Break anyway, so it's already a lighter day for teachers and staff?
  10. I've been in-house for over 10 years, and I love it. Way less stress, and I still have a hand in litigation managing outside counsel. Health insurance and other benefits are way better, and most days, I leave work at work and get home to the family by dinnertime. Other than going to a stable company, my biggest piece of advice is to really look at the legal department you're joining. Make sure you like the people you'll be working with, especially if it's a smaller group without a lot of turnover. When I was in private practice, my firms were big enough that I found good work friends within the practice group that I could bounce things off of, grab drinks, or just shoot the shit when we needed a break. When I moved in house, I figured out real quick that the other lawyers weren't people I would have gravitated towards at my firm, and only one could talk football on Mondays. I like everyone well enough, and the work is challenging and fun, so overall it's been worth it.
  11. It's like we missed the first part of their conversation. Not that we *missed* it, but why does she think he's the one who wants to share food? He takes his own chip and shows off his sweet dipping sauce mixing skills. And then she's just as asshole who takes his food.
  12. Beat me to it. I think Estelline was the reason why municipalities now have a cap on ticket revenue.
  13. SIAP: AISD says cut off for contact tracing and notification is 48 hours. So if a kid tests positive more 48 hours of last being on campus, then no further action on their end. I guess the horse is out of the barn at that point, so that's one less thing admin has to document. And we're all on the honor system anyway, so whatever. My middle schooler tested positive this morning (home test), so we let the school know. I thought they'd prob contact my kids' friends because they ate lunch indoors on Friday, so I gave other parents a heads up. But I guess not. Also, my kid has been complaining of back pain. School nurse said she sent three kids home this morning because of back pain, so watch for that symptom in your kids.
  14. And the chick being an asshole who makes no sense. I hate them both.

    RIP Gerg

    Well, shit. RIP and Hook 'em.

  17. Check that. It's "Think Again."
  18. Adam Grant wrote a whole book about this called "Mindset"
  19. My kid went to school today. She didn't know anything about the TikTok posts or people planning to be disruptive (or worse) today, and we certainly didn't tell her. Most parents keep their concerns about stuff like that away from their kids for obvious reasons. But then about half of her friends went home at lunch because of all the shooter rumors spreading among the kids throughout the morning. Like BrazilHorn, my older kid went through O. Henry, and there were fights, vaping, gummies (though not actually at school, that we knew of anyway), bullying, etc. I still thought it was a really good experience overall because the staff handled everything pretty well. Things have changed a lot post Covid for whatever reason, and all of these previously one-offs are now weekly issues with very little effort to deter more bullshit from happening. It sucks.
  20. One was specific to O. Henry. Still prob just dumb TikTok stunt, but hits a little differently when it's your kid's school versus generalized threats.
  21. We're in the exact same boat. I am actively weighing options. Prob overreacting, but might just keep mine home tomorrow instead of going just for movie day. I get that the shooting threats are likely part of a sick trend, but there have been enough random fights in the hallways and cafeteria just in the last few weeks that I'd rather cut my losses and let the shit subside over the holidays.
  22. What a great life and legacy. RIP.
  23. This. It's just one dumb shit, peacocking stunt after another for this crew. But hey, I bet Steve, et al. can get another guest spot on MSNBC out of it.
