  1. Seriously, this. Ssome of the best red beans & rice I've ever eaten anywhere, including some damn good cajun restaurants in Tx & La, but yeah, pretty much every time I've eaten it, I got a migraine by the end of the day.
  2. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-tower-las-vegas-cybertruck-explosion-fire/
  3. Not verified, but I just read on another board that the Vegas guy's record said he specialized in remote detonations. So why not detonate remotely? He was home on leave. In Vegas. Maybe drunk?
  4. Same thread with an updated title might be the way to go imho.
  5. Apparently the truck bed contained multiple containers of fuel and some 'large fireworks'. I knew that explosion was too big to just be fireworks. I guess he was using them to detonate the fuel cans? https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cz7qd97eyp0o
  6. Yeah I'm ok with Jesse. Compared to a great many announcers out there, he's aight, imho.
  7. Tessitore is fucking horribad.
  8. Yep. I still don't like the guy, but he had a great game.
  9. Fuck Mack Brown.
  10. New Orleans: Rented F-150 Lightning electric pickup Vegas: Rented Tesla electric pickup Related, or a coincidence? Who knows ...
  11. New Orleans: Rented F-150 Lightning electric pickup Vegas: Rented Tesla electric pickup Both rented on Turo. Related, or a coincidence? Who knows?
  12. Elton John at COTA. Dismal. He seemed pissed off and clearly didn't want to be there. However much he got paid, he didn't deserve it.
  13. My buddy out by COTA just texted me like he does every year, with a video where you can hear nothing but AKs all around. That's how they roll out in SE Travis County.
  14. Yeah my dipshit neighbor spends a couple grand on em every NYE and July 4th, then leaves the huge fireworks mess in the cul de sac and our yards. I sweater god he's laundering money for the cartels. Sounds like Gaza outside my house right now. All the animals are hiding out.
  15. Happy New Year, & Hookem!! Here's to a better '25 than '24.
  16. Is that for realz? ETA: Never mind. It's for realz.
  17. Seriously, this. I parked next to one yesterday at Costco on William Cannon, so I took a good look at it before going in. All I kept thinking about was how much dumbassery combined with abject dorkdom and Musk fanboiism would be required to make a grownup think this thing was cool and that paying way too much money for it would be a good idea.
  18. Pretty amazing. Here's video from the safe belly landing of the LOT 767 in 2011. I think it has flaps fully down. The plane stopped in half of the runway length. Captain is a got damn hero.
  19. Is there video that shows the left engine's thrust reverser closed? Maybe I missed it. Yep. The ILS locator antennae construction was atypical and not ideal to be sure, but the much bigger problem was that they came in long, touching down much too far down that runway. ... and that they came in very fast relative to normal landing speeds.
