  1. Not a start up but an interesting IPO. WME - William Morris Endeavor - going public later this year. Top Hollywood talent agency that also owns IMG, UFC, Pro Bull Riding and other stuff. Will be an interesting valuation to watch.
  2. I thought it was great. Netflix has thrown so much shit against the wall, hoping it sticks, I was prepared for severe disappointment, but this one was every bit as good as any other studio could produce. Costner is fine, he's parsley, the extra on the plate necessary to deliver the meal. Also just got the email Netflix has upped my fee to $15.99/month for the whole family. THE OUTRAGE. Those fuckers have a much longer runway for me to pay if they produce more movies like this.
  3. They seem to be in a weird spot in the collerctor market. Some say they're shit regardless of condition, some say they're a turning heads car ready for appreciation. Bids have failed up to $5Ok for low mileage ones, but here's a few that have actually sold. https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1982-delorean-dmc-12-3/ https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1981-delorean-dmc-12-13/ https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1982-delorean-dmc-12-2/ And I saw this one the other day on the road. Not sure what to think. Either it was used on the movie or the owner is a serious fan and meticulously restored.
  4. PSA BAT is auctioning off Travis Barker's '7O custom Cadillac. He's also answering questions, shold be fun to watch. https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1970-cadillac-eldorado/
  5. CSB time. Met one of the Garrison brothers (Bourbon) at a Phoenix airport bar. Nice guy. Got to talking football and turns out his son is Jake's teammate, as in the DB that had to cover him every day in practice. Said his son was undersized, so hurt his recruitment, but his experience having to cover the best HS receiver in the country helped quite a bit. Looks like he's going to CO School of the Mines. /CSB He's got some photos with Jake throwing up the hook 'em sign on his twitter. https://twitter.com/james_g_5
  6. So how would this help someone recently denied coverage from a different carrier, say Cigna? I have a relative recently denied coverage for a 30 day rehab stint for alcohol. Also treated for depression, anxiety. Based on the ACA can they not deny coverage? Or does it depend on how the policy is written and then we'd have to threaten to sue based on the UBH decision?
  7. Loved this movie. Thought it had one of the better villains for the time.
  8. Finally had some time to weld in the DS floorpan. All stitched up. And it's in. Not going to win in beauty awards, but it's solid. Had a hell of a time working around the bump at the gear shift. Decided to go ahead and replace my roached battery apron. Those factory plug welds are a bitch to find. Secured in tight, and she's in. Per Mopar will be doing the seam sealer sometime soon.
  9. I have a handful of songs that immediately stop me from scrolling around the dial. Rikki Don't Lose That Number is one of those. Reminds me of when I was a kid swimming at the local pool during the summer.
  10. Okay, I'm digging a little deep here but I played this CD quite a bit in the early 90's. Worth a listen.
  11. I don't disagree about having to come up with some excuse to avoid NFL suspension, but this isn't a guy that will win a dementia argument
  12. Source material 90's.
  13. Thanks for that link. I didn't understand some of it, but he's a very good writer (maybe he had help) and reading about his preparation and concerns adds another interesting layer to the documentary.
  14. Wasn't this type of stuff already settled in suit against Larry Flynt? And if not, doesn't this open discovery for the defendant to seek evidence he actually has eaten Trump's shit? I hate this fucking guy. Truly despicable human being.
  15. On a more serious note, I was impressed with this BAT listing. Started out as a 540i Touring wagon, but upgraded everything with M5 performance. Kind of checks all the boxes per the OP.
  16. So I watched the Netflix series and decided to follow Formula 1 more closely this season. I'll learn as I go but two questions jump out. How the hell does Honda have an F1 engine but not McClaren? I liked Ocon on the Netflix series and noticed him with the Mercedes team. As a back up will he ever really race with Bottas and Hamilton in front of him? And won't he get stale just sitting around all year, or do they allow back ups to drive during practice time?
