  1. I’ll be opening a rotisserie place once we get the all-clear.
  2. Thanks...I will check it. Doom has been awesome so far. I also got my Xbox controller today. The keypad and mouse have been a little rusty for these old gamers hands. I do like war sims. Battlefield 1 was great a few years ago but now I can’t find anyone online much.
  3. Awesome if it happens.
  4. Got lucky and played ACB and DKNG into earnings today. I’m going to put the crack pipe down and step away for a bit from the stonking. I’ll keep you posted when I grab the pipe again.
  5. Ha! Ya....I didnt go too hard...so it was fun to hold through earnings...I’ll be watching in the morning...Vegas is still closed...wth
  6. Thought I’d see them from my backyard for sure....heard them...but missed seeing them...coors light was cold so all good.
  7. Tank decided to make this screen panel a doggy door today.
  8. VTIQ is looping Rage Against The Machine.
  9. I’m not seeing a ton of downside. At a 52-week low....I’ll take a chance on a growing industry.
  10. Couldn’t resist grabbing a small bag of ACB today.
  11. Did rotisserie chicken for the first time last night. Brined it before hand. Was damn good.
  12. Jumped on VTIQ at opening today. You friggin stonkers have me stonking again....this one looks good! YOLO!
  13. Where is that one? Grabbed some yesterday in Austin and they didn’t have those but they were wearing N95 masks. Was well worth the run.
  14. @immamac thread title long overdue to "Markets still rising like whoa"
  15. The coronavirus pandemic has disrupted the U.S. meat supply chain as major meat producers idled or shut plants, causing spikes in prices and retailers like Costco and Kroger to limit the number of items consumers can buy. But, that in turn may provide a big growth opportunity for plant-based meat companies like Beyond Meat and Impossible Foods. Beyond Meat will introduce “heavier discounting against animal protein” and will have “aggressive pricing” this summer as wholesale beef price surged to $4.10 a pound, Beyond Meat president and CEO Ethan Brown said on an earnings conference call late Tuesday. Brown added that Beyond Meat is introducing lower-priced bulk value packs to grocers as they struggle with supply shortages of animal protein. “Our biggest focus is to provide solutions for consumers as they have meat disruptions,” Brown said on the call. “There is an opportunity for consumers to be aware of a different model. There are more opportunities to be relevant to customers.” The company reported first-quarter sales more than doubled to $97.1 million. https://www.forbes.com/sites/andriacheng/2020/05/05/with-crimped-animal-meat-supply-coronavirus-may-open-big-consumer-appetite-for-plant-based-meat-from-beyond-meat-impossible-foods/#6605df6a2920 Things like this will only continue to happen. Which is why I’m long BYND and not worried about week to week.
  16. I’ve shook off my stonking and am keep BYND a long hold. Plant based “meats” will never go away and will only grow. When discussing my desire for free-range chicken and natural beef at a food innovation conference a few years ago...an older scientist asked me “what are we going to do when we are inhabiting space?” Companies like BYND will be figuring that out.
  17. RIP to a legend....loved the Dolphins when he was coaching.
  18. Seriously cannot wait for the day I can click on "Football" first and not "Daily Texan."
  19. Giant Leopard At least that’s what Mrs. Tailgate found and it looks like it.
  20. Tank couldn’t resist jumping in the pool today. Had the shake off while I was taking his pic. Dudes a bowling ball and can’t swim...luckily I’ve got an 8” ledge he owns.
  21. Tank had to swim today. He’s getting tired of the quarantine. Decided to shake off when I was taking this pic.
