  1. Yes, and to some extent that culture attracts a certain breed of individual.
  2. Or maybe aggy. Or maybe both. http://www.thebatt.com/news/texas-a-m-professor-arrested-accused-of-lying-about-chinese-affiliations-while-working-with-nasa/article_02fe53d4-e636-11ea-87b3-bb29169f6866.html
  3. The oil crunch in the early/mid 70's changed things here in Texas. Independent owners went out of business, federal regulations (EPA) further forced mom and pop joints out of business. East coast I think was sufficiently in the grip of unions that they weathered that storm differently than we did here. Driving habits and mass trans also impacted how things run, I'm sure.
  4. Yeah, I remember visiting friends in NY city in the mid 80's and it was illegal, or so I was told, for a person to pump their own gas. Unions, yo.
  5. It's probably been a while since he went by that name if he was sm... n/m.
  6. He was gonna be a contender. STELLLLLAAAAAA
  7. Just got off the phone with a young female co-worker who's been poppin' out an offspring a year for the last 3 years. We're all working from home and you could hear the brood howling. I brought up Trey's lament and she said multiply that x3.
  8. The guy that said it is an extremely successful entrepreneur so I'm not surprised that he's latched onto the revenue stream. I was just a bit surprised to hear him mention it so matter of fact and needed to know more. Makes sense now.
  9. I guess my experience was the opposite of carnage... Discovered a small water leak during my inspection that I probably would not have noticed otherwise.
  10. This is good info. The situation that prompted my initial post was not in fact a friend's whore, it came from an interview I had watched recently wherein the guest identified as an "influencer". I know that this particular individual is also sponsored by a few brands in their industry and also has their own line of products within that industry. Strange times, yo. Got a whole new batch of labels to learn. Thanks for the info!
  11. I member when you didn't pump your own gas, that was the attendants job.
  12. Social media "influencers"... What are the requirements to become one of these? Asking for a friend's whore.
  13. Absolutely true. Rivers was a damn good QB and had no better luck with the Chargers. Spanos couldn't get out of his own way.
  14. I was watching the game when Drew got injured (was still a fantasy football buff then). San Diego just never field a complete team. They'd either be limited by injuries or personnel. They were leaning heavily on Tomlinson in those years, if I recall correctly he had over 300 touches in a couple of seasons. You're right about Rivers though, guy was a baller, mouthy but played the game similarly to Drew, no quitting.
  15. I drop in here rarely and it's usually with questions as I don't follow CR topics. So with that said, what's the cost of the various vaccines (however you want to measure that) and who is paying Moderna/Pfizer/J&J for there efforts? A followup, what is the "final" cost expected to be? Put final in quotes because I realize this may go on for years so maybe limit time frame to this time next year? I dunno, just dumb questions.
  16. And San Diego rolled the dice with Phillip Rivers.
  17. I like the snow thru the fence with the basketball goal. Nice shot. Did you get just one lens with your camera? I can't remember. Asking because I saw I think a Lumix 45-150 on sale recently. Not expensive at all.
  18. first name or last? Conner Preston? Preston Conner?
  19. South gonna suck. Baylor will be first #1 out.
  20. That was a lot of points compared to what I'm used to seeing. Congrats to UT, represented the Lone Star well today.
  21. Earlier today Kim Mulkey beat Bevo in a game of show me your war face.

    That apparatus reminded me of something George Carlin said many years ago about pot use. He noted that part of the allure to many was the paraphernalia, the rituals involved etc... Then that meant cleaning your weed, separating out the seeds, rolling your weed, making pretty joints and whatnot. Guess it still holds true to some extent.
  23. 1) You questioning if the US military would have a need for ME? 2) Damn right I've been in isolation for over a year, pandemic is scary shit. Act of God, yo.
