  1. If Dak is the triggerman, he will miss Jerry by two yards and plug the driver.
  2. Glad they put out only one of these a day Wordle 209 5/6 ⬜⬜⬜🟨⬜ ⬜⬜⬜⬜⬜ ⬜🟩⬜⬜🟩 ⬜🟩🟩🟨🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
  3. I don't know. They seemed, like, well.....that they would come in second place if there was some type of pillow voting/election thing.
  4. True story. Stayed with some inlaws at Christmas while doing the Tour of Texas. Got up one morning after being short a pillow all night (I had packed my own, but I sleep with at least two). Inlaw asks if I slept ok, and I said I had slept fine but wish I had brought another pillow. She says--All good Squib, follow me. Go upstairs and she opens a closet that has at least 20 pillows still in the packaging. She says: "We buy these because the owner of the company has been cancelled for his Christian beliefs. We decided to order all of these because the Libs shouldn't be able to ruin a man's business. We hate the pillows though so we just shove them in the closet." Narrator: "Yes, they were MyPillows."
  5. Almost got me today. It seems like Wordle is on to the STRLNE strategy lately.
  6. More or less followed this recipe. I will add a chili de arbol or two next time. Or not--the kids probably won't eat it if I kick up the heat. https://houseofyumm.com/beef-birria-and-birria-tacos/
  7. Pot is about 5 inches deep. With all the ingredients and seven cups of water, it was about full. I skimmed the fat as it cooked. Just kept putting it in a bowl next to the pot. When it was done, I removed everything from the pot. I put all the veggies in a colander and let it drain into a bowl that I poured back in the pot. I pressed on the veggies to get as much liquid back as I could. You can eat birrea as a soup if you want; you just leave the veggies and cube up the meat rather than shred. If I were going to serve as a soup, I would cook with more liquid.
  8. Much easier than I anticipated. Damn chuck roast and short ribs were crazy expensive. I never pay attention to grocery prices, but I was a bit shocked at the roast price as I was unwrapping. Will eat the left overs during the Bama/Ga game tomorrow night.
  9. Next made a taco out of the meat and some shredded quesadilla cheese. Got the skimmed-off fat hot in the skillet and crisped the tacos. Served with some beans I had been cooking all day. Pretty dang good. The kids even ate it. I think next time I will throw in a few chilis de arbol to spice it up a bit. Easy enough.
  10. Ran the chilis through the blender with a little of the broth then mixed the chili sauce back into the pot. Added some chili powder at this step. After about 3 hours, I skimmed off the fat (and reserved) then removed the veggies, and shredded the meat and added back to the pot.
  11. Birria Tacos or Red Tacos seem to be all the rage. Decided to make an effort. Started with chuck roast, some short ribs, guajillo chiles, Mexican oregano, onion, garlic, carrots and some water in pot. Got it to a boil and let the chilis hydrate in the water for 30 minutes. Starting to come together.
  12. Five again. Wordle 202 5/6 ⬜⬜⬜⬜🟨 🟩⬜⬜⬜⬜ ⬜🟨⬜⬜⬜ 🟩🟨🟨🟨⬜ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
  13. So what word did you enter for the second row? And if you missed all letters on the first, what Is the strategy of repeating a letter in the second? That's a bold move Cotton.
  14. Took me 5. I wasn't sure if a letter could be used more than once. Thanks for sharing. I will try to attempt daily. Wordle 201 5/6 ⬜🟨🟨⬜⬜ 🟨🟩⬜⬜⬜ ⬜🟩⬜🟨⬜ 🟩🟩🟨⬜⬜ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
  15. It pains me to say this, but I respect LSU for balling tonight. They could have pulled an Aggy and dodged this game, but they donned their unis and took the field. Football players play football. Dorks hide behind excuses.
  16. Some Okie: "College football is stale and boring."
  17. Caesar's sports books has a newish app that they are pushing. It makes gambling a bit easier, and they are (or were) giving away some bonuses for signing up for the app and the service. You have to load cash in the app in person, and you have to collect your payout in person, but the rest of it is pretty easy. It is nice to be sitting in a restaurant watching a game and drop a few dollars on a bet without having to find a window. Also @Knoxtnhorn, you can fill out cards for your bets and just hand the guys at the window your cards. I like taking a stack of cards to the bar and sitting there drinking for hours while I make stupid parlay bets.
  18. Had a lot of fun. Enjoyed the pavilion area outside of the stadium before the game. Had some pretty good pre-game ballpark food. The jalepeno cheese sausage dog was legit good. Washed it down with a couple of Coors yellabellies. Got to our seats, and yes they were way up there. Could see well enough between watching the big board and watching the field. Drank many beers, a margarita thing and shared decent nachos with daughter. Bathrooms were clean. Movement in and out of stadium was orderly. Very glad we went.
  19. Stub Hub has about the same prices as all the other ticket resellers. Any other options on tickets besides standing around outside before the game and hoping to not get ripped off?
  20. I'm down to go. Just trying to set my expectations.
  21. Never been to the stadium. How bad is the view from section 414--southside, very top section, about 35 yard line? Can you at least get a good view on the huge screens? Any help is appreciated. Kids want to go so I am no about to pay for top-tier seats.
  22. "Hold on before you unplug the cameras. I have something curious/funny to say about Labor Day poetry. Please put a mic in my face. Please....Wait....RRRRR..Swords....."
