  1. Well, I think you’re wrong. Steamed crawfish is a near religious experience for people who actually want to taste that sweet tender meat.

    The key is resting them for 20 minutes and tossing the cooler every 5 minutes.

  2. A tributary of the Calcasieu River, Moss Bluff, LA. Boudreaux central.

    The kid with the gar and mullet is who I want to be when I grow up. Pure country joy. Has his own pony and cows to herd and a daddy who rodeos. Killed his first gator at 4. No shit, his government name is Bear Fontenot.

    To break down the crawfish recipe, it’s steamed crawfish bathed in equal parts vinegar and lemon juice, a quart of minced garlic, a lb of butter, and a little swamp dust. There is maybe 2 inches of water in the pot to cook that whole basket. We did 93 lbs.

  3. Congrats on the internal move and finding a job-- any port in a storm. But, word to the wise, I'd keep interviewing and looking externally because being a Federal Seller probably ain't gonna be that great for the next few years with DOGE, severe cost cutting, an administration that doesn't value investment, contracts, software or professional services, etc.
    Read today Deloitte is cutting from their Federal teams. I know most PubSec and Fed sellers I know are sweating it.

    Sat in QBRs in Bethesda today and one of the directors caught me laughing to myself and asked if I had something to add. I said “no, not out loud.”

    What I should have said was “everybody chill. We’re in a particularly nasty iteration of the simulation, and no amount of stress can reverse the systemic breakage occurring right now.”

    One of the VPs actually has a practice around how to profit from DOGE destruction. I can’t wait to see that deck.

    Still, after spending my first week scrambling around the beltway I’m spent. And I get to do it again next week.
  4. Rory choking on Sunday at the Masters. A tradition unlike any other.

    An hour ago I was mansplaining Rors to my wife. She even said “is that the guy who chokes?”

    I told her “well, usually. But he didn’t at the Players this year, so maybe those days are behind him.”

    I’m gonna have to tell her she’s right.

  5. I’ve got 6 rose bushes that need planting and a huge bed to mulch.

    IBM has some stupid commercials.

    And I’m going to tell the Masters team off when I see them next month in Boston. Stop making stupid commercials. You have the Masters and Wimbledon. Hire whatever agency Rolex and Mercedes are using and STFU.

  6. Cam Smith. Who was tracking to be a better player than the one you describe but hasn't done anything now since the Masters last year. 

    My point exactly.

    This morning sitting in church at St. Andrew’s Presbyterian I had Paramount coverage playing through my Bluetooth hearing aids while pretending to pay attention to Palm Sunday services.

    My grandmother spun in her grave.

  7.  
    LIV golfers sold out their career for a big paycheck. dechambro is the only that's been able to compete at a pga level. 
    the best part of liv was them shit canning that piece of shit norman. the rest of is unwatchable 

    I’ve never even imagined having a penis (mine or any other) in my mouth, but I would have probably blown a hobo for a $150m check. Hell, I would have hung a plaque commemorating the event for family lore in the foyer in my new house in Jupiter.

    If you’re a middling 4 win with maybe a lucky major career 400 tournament/300 cut made $32m grinder (no pun intended) you absolutely take that NIV money. Like that skinny Australian kid whose name I can’t remember (Cam something?) who cashed his check the week after winning The Open, IIRC.

  8. Seeing you guys fall for this PR machine is really something. Yeah this fucking tool suddenly woke up one day and became relatable right around the time he took $125 million dollars from MBS. 

    Unless it’s revealed he kicks puppies and beats children, or uses a foot wedge in competition, or stole money from the locker room at SMU, I’m ok with his weirdness. You can’t deny he transformed from weird science protractor on the green guy to fuck it let’s have fun guy.

    I really want Rory to beat him, mainly as payback for Pinehurst. I don’t begrudge Bryson the blood money, but Rory probably turned down half a billion on principle.
