  1. Saw it last night.  Been waiting since 1989 after #2 for the next chapter in the story.  It was fun watching it through the eyes of my kids... my 11yo who picked up on almost all the references to the original, as well as my 4yo who is just starting to get into GB and remembering what it was like when I was his age.  Oh, and I dug up an old shirt I had from GB2 back in the day... it "fit" in as much as I could barely fit it on.  My 11yo was thoroughly embarrassed when I took my sweatshirt off in the theater and was wearing a t-shirt close to 2 sizes too small.  

    The movie was good, not amazing.  Better than the abortion reboot that came out a few years ago.  The little girl who played the lead was fantastic imo.

  2. If you’ve never been to Del’s in old downtown Richardson you’re missing out on some fantastic burgers and my dad’s favorite root beer. They make it in house and serve it in a frosty cold mug.

  3. Marie Sharp's is awesome.  Got my first bottle last week.  Also went and grabbed a bottle of Lola's off this thread's recommendations.  Not my cup of tea.  The one I go through the fastest has to be Crystal extra hot.  And WillUSAF - have you tried the sauce you got, Sling Blade, yet?  Another one of my favorites. But my absolute favorite - and I think I've mentioned it here before - is Penitente, http://montezumabrand.com/new-products/penitente-tortured-soul-hot-sauce/

  4. As a kid - Plano East making a huge comeback against Tyler John Tyler.  4 touchdowns and 3 successful onside kicks with 3 mins left and then with 1 min left, kicked it deep on the kickoff and returned for a touchdown to beat PESH.  Dagger to my 9 year old heart.

    As a young adult - The Bush Push.  Fuck USC.

    As an adult - everyone's favorite GIF of the Baylor punter being de-cleated in the Cotton Bowl vs Sparty.  At that moment I knew Baylor was going to choke and I just wanted to see a win for my pops a '66 BU alum and letterman.  That was his last year with us.

  5. We've enjoyed a couple Giordano's pizzas in the last few months.  One frozen that we cooked at home and one fresh we did takeout from a location here in Indy.  Both were good.  Deep dish isn't my favorite, but every once in a while it hits the spot.  I've been eyeing Gino's East in the frozen section at Kroger... but based off of this thread I'll save some money and stick to other favorites. 

  6. I do love me some Crystal and Tapatio and have close to 50 different brands in my collection, but when I'm in the mood for good bit of heat, this is my absolute favorite sauce for the right amount of heat and some amazing flavor.  Unlike most sauces made with the Trinidad Scorpion or Carolina Reaper it's not too think - a bit more of the consistency of Crystal.

    Westlake has been back for about a month in a half. Cases are growing at the high school.

    BUT

    Almost every single student case (I’m talking 60+) were spread either at an extracurricular or at a social event. Masks seem to be working during the school day.

    Same with us. Although we still havent had more than a dozen cases.  But let's lock our kids up again and do non-existent virtual "learning".

  8. utee- I’ve had the same experience. Students reaching out saying how appreciative they are and happy to be back in school. Got a few emails and even a few handwritten notes.

    Two students I taught for their freshman and sophomore year came by today. I don’t teach them right now but will next semester. Worried that the spring will be cancelled too and that he and she won’t get to have my class (in person) next semester and I don’t teach seniors.
