  1. I think we have the engineering capability to do something like that safely. Where it goes south is it would take ludicrous amounts of money to build, and be extremely difficult to fully protect in the current world climate.

    In a civil world, it would a be an amazing accomplishment. Then again, in a civil world it wouldn’t really be needed. Nice brain time thinking about how something like that would kinda work, how big it would be, etc.

    Underground. A big ass ship tunnel. The Suez, but ya know, in a tunnel. Well shit this could be an idea. 

     

    Locks and damns would do the trick. Sure, why not.

    For that matter, why not make UAE the middle point, continue WNW and just hook it to the med off Israel? Take over all that sweet Suez Canal money, then triple the rates. Treat it like the railway and make them single direction tunnels. No more having to stop in the middle of the Suez to swap traffic around.

    I ain't having no women can't turn off the lights. 

    No shit. My bill, with 7-10 days of AC is that. And I have two grow rooms, a network rack, and tons of electronics.

    Surely the skeptics now agree that Kyle Field is the most intimidating venue in college football.

     

    Sure it is. It absolutely is.

     

     

     

     

    From a fan perspective and wondering if you’ll make it out alive before it collapses. Very intimidating.

  5. Georgia with an 81% chance to make the CFP if they lose today.

    Texas with a 31% chance if they lose.

    SEC wants as many teams as possible, so on and so forth.

     

    We've been over that this week, but now with SoCar up by 27 at halftime (giggity), makes me wonder if/how the fuckery goes tonight and in whose favor.

    I mean, of course they've gone up in price, but most services have gone up much more. I pay about $150 for all the sports, movies, & 4K content they offer. With every other streaming or cable service I ever used before, I've paid more for less.

     

    My only bitch with YTTV overall is no History channel and no RSN’s.

    Still may end up moving to a streaming DTV package at some point.

    That’s a lot of movement since last night. I wonder what it’s from?

     

    People betting the other way. That's all "lines" are. To entice betting to one side or the other so that the house can at worst break even on a game. It's not a win prediction, never has been. It doesn't mean a fucking thing outside of how people are betting, and should never be viewed as an indication of anything else.

    If you set up a custom guide you have to re-select all the Disney channels and order them to your liking otherwise they’re at the very end of your guide 

     

    Just got on the website, and mine were still in the same spot I put them.

    Haven't got on the app yet, got HBO going.

    I’ve often thought I wish I had the 18” (I rarely do more than 1 brisket, am occasionally hauling it to other places, and sure I’m using way more charcoal on the 22” when an 18” would do the job 90% of the time, but love what I have at this point (had ~12 years)   #whynotboth

     

    There was a guy in the old thread on shaggy (banana something?) that was a master of arranging an 18” WSM. He’s pack more on that that I’d be comfortable with on my 22”. It was a show.
