  1. I'm a sucker for hard boiled crime noir like Raymond Chandler or James Cain of the 30s and 40s. I was cautiously optimistic when I saw the reviews but I loved it.  Quick read.  James Kestrel is a pen name for Jonathon Moore if you've read anything from him.

     

    December 1941: America teeters on the brink of war, and in Honolulu, Hawaii, police detective Joe McGrady is assigned to investigate a homicide that will change his life forever. Because the trail of murder he uncovers will lead him across the Pacific, far from home and the woman he loves; and though the U.S. doesn’t know it yet, a Japanese fleet is already steaming toward Pearl Harbor.

    The beginning was pretty good and tugged at the heart

    The mom sucks.  So much.  Her kid is the problem.  This mother fucking golf dork paid you $100k to teach your kid golf and get him tour wins, and you're mad at him for....doing that? And not your son for being an emotional idiot? 

    Santi's dad isn't a bad man for the same reasons Pryce somehow is. 

    Zero should have punched Santi in the balls when he shows up and acts like everything is cool. 

    100%.

    Tre Wisner over CJ Baxter for All-American is certainly a take.  I get it, but I'm pretty sure it's gonna play out differently.

    I'm not as optimistic on Baxter.  Tore 3 ligaments. Coming back from major reconstructive knee surgery. I know he's a hard worker and I have no doubt he's maximizing his recovery but still.  

    My hope is he's 100% by Florida or OU and is relatively fresh through the remainder of the year.

    Not in the picture I saw posted earlier. She’s meh. 

     

    Then give me Jessica Biel. I could walk into the Target in Lakeway on a random Tuesday afternoon and find six women hotter than Heather Graham. Heather Graham looks like the picture on the warning label on the Accutane medication package telling you what your kid might look like if you take Accutane while pregnant. I’ll pass.

    We are now going to settle for jags because We Are Texas. Sark let all the 1st rounders and success get to his head. Now he is just sitting back and relying on recruiting rankings because We Are Texas and its a priviledge for them to play here. You want to play for The Flagship of Texas, you come to me. Thats his mentality. This is where we are at now.

    Ok Grandpa. Let's get you to bed

    OU’s “Champ BBQ Weekend” turned out to be a giant wet fart. They landed Jandreau because his parents pushed him to stick with his brother. They landed a kicker. They landed a 3 star Edge over UCLA and Colorado. 

    Throughout the weekend, Nagy was live tweeting hints at big things about to happen, getting posters worked up. I’ve listened to this guy over the years and there’s always been a hypeman element to him trying to rally viewers and participants to the Senior Bowl in Mobile. I didn’t realize that would carry over into OU GM territory. It’s gotten to where the sooner posters have rapidly gone from “Trust Nagy!” to mocking his tweets. It’s glorious to witness. 

    Afterwards, multiple other “big” targets indicated to the Sooner Illustrated mods that they were now looking elsewhere. The overriding theme? Oklahoma is poor. They wanted competitive offers to compare to other schools and they didn’t get them. 

    They lost an IOL from Pasa-get-down-Dena! who is now choosing between TCU and UH. The guy went to OU this weekend, the mods said OU felt really good about the visit, then they spoke to him later in the day and he said he was choosing elsewhere. 

    Same story for a 4 star DT they really wanted. 

    They’re also all over a WR named Dandridge that Georgia really wants and expects to land. The mods are trying to keep hope there while clearly concerned.

    The mods and a board “insider” are all now talking about OU prioritizing the portal over HS recruiting and telling board denizens to stop focusing on the HS recruiting rankings. In the span of 48 hours. “Expect fireworks in the portal in December!”

    That program is heading south in a hurry. They’ll have a decent team this year, but sustaining any bounce back will be elusive. 

    I love these updates

  7. I love Sonic ice but couldn't find one that was right for what I wanted to spend a few years back. So I buy 2 bags of ice from Sonic and keep them in my deep freeze. I have a cheap plastic pitcher that I keep in my kitchen freezer and fill up with that ice. Then when I need some more I just pour it into my cup. When it's empty I refill it with the ice bags. Currently enjoying some now in a Sonic Sunrise with a little Gin.
