  1. I'm going to round table this one with the boys down at Carcosa and get back with you. May summon some dark spirits just to make sure I'm on the right track.
  2. I'm no horse expert but I was thinking that they were rugged animals except for broken legs or hooves. A bunch of blood isn't a big deal - stich that sumbitch up and give it some hay. A broken leg - old yeller treatment for you Mr. Smokey. Amirite?
  3. Look, they don't mean to screw you, they're really good people but... reasons, excuses, and voila, the miracle was late so you get to hold the bag. "Sorry, I'll see you at megachurch on Sunday. I'll be wearing expensive clothes and my conscience will be unburdened."
  4. My favorite is when you're in a board meeting about to vote on something (and I've been in 2 where we were deliberating and about to vote on someone's future - hiring/firing - and this happened) and someone rolls out something to the effect of "I've prayed about this and God has led me to know that _________." Sheeeyit. I can't argue with that. You've got the almighty on your side. The alpha and omega. All I did was run this by my wife after a few cocktails, sleep on it, and apply my experience, reason and education to the question. I was feeling pretty confident with my pair of deuces and you just pulled out the Mississippi flush. I guess I just lose. Discussion over, thanks be to God.
  5. I like it when you see someone try to be a smartass or toughster with the foreign country's cops or TSA. I witnessed this last year in a Caribbean country not T&C. Dude, these guys get paid like $7 a day to sit here and deal with your shit. They live in some shack without electricity. When they figure out you'll pay them everything in your wallet to stop the beating... the beating will start.
  6. You left out the restaurant on Congress. It was not a luxury destination, but on Fridays they had shrimp enchiladas. I'm generally not a fan of the shrimp enchilada but I liked that place. I think the back dining room may have been an alley.
  7. What year did South Park Meadows become an Academy? What year did the Backyard become a Target? What year did they tear down the TexMex restaurant at 2nd and Congress (I forgot the name but shrimp enchiladas slammed)? Average those and you'll be in the ballpark. Also, going off memory but wasn't there a Texadelphia at 5th and Congress somewhere? And wasn't there an old Schlotzsky's somewhere around 5th and 35?

    Breakfast Tacos

    Are there any good breakfast taco options in Longview? I'll be there for a couple days and could use some local knowledge.
  9. I try to impress on my family that car insurance is your friend. Someone wants to steal the car? Fucking have at it - I hope it's in a chop shop or Honduras quickly... I don't really want it back. Someone wants to car jack a car? Here are the keys my friend - no trouble here. That truck was insured and letting a bad guy leave the place where I am, with an insured vehicle? No problemo friendo. Now, come into my house while my family is sleeping, i can't really abide that.
  10. Steve Jobs was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in 2003, and I understand he lived in California at that time, and all relevant times. In April 2009, miracle of all miracles, he undergoes a liver transplant in... Memphis. I think that's about 7 states and 2,000 miles away from his home. He dies 30 months later of... pancreatic cancer. If I rolled into a liver transplant program with pancreatic cancer, what do you think my odds are of getting a spot on the list? Ever making it to the top of the list? I'm going with "not good Bob." You cannot convince me that all of these transplant programs are run cleanly. Money or connections will get you a better spot in line at certain programs. Stevie Jobs didn't go to Memphis for the ribs and ocean sunsets.
  11. I bet if it was one of those Texas State "kids" from other threads, we would have already formed our own Cajun Navy and would be out there in full force.
  12. This strikes me as some kinda philosophical trojan horse bullshit. You're gonna sound all smart and get us all nodding our heads thinking, "yeah, this guy knows what he's talking about." Then, you'll try to turn it. I mean, surely you wouldn't open a thread about how we're all more reasonable than we actually seem, without some hidden plan. I give it 12 hours before you roll out that the earth is flat and aliens are among us.
  13. Anybody got any recommendations for best girl's dorm? Hardin House? Scottish Rite? Van down by the river?
  14. Julius Peppers (and his special lady friend) Most recent famous person in a random place? Charlamagne tha God at a taco shack in the Caribbean. What do I win?
