  1. Saw it last night. Incredible. The sound and score were phenomenal. All the acting was great. I was worried that Matt Damon was going to overact based on the trailer, but he was right in line with the rest. We went to Los Alamos over spring break because I knew this was coming out. Having just been there and getting a primer on it was extremely helpful. I'm sure that little museum is overrun this summer. There will be a lot of well deserved awards from this.
  2. Baseball is cruel - Augie, probably
  3. Sorry if already answered, but is home/ visitor decided by a coin flip or back to Stanford automatically?
  4. Needed more eye black
  5. Good job, good effort
  6. Thought this one was an obvious stand out
  7. This was my experience. Got one when I was 42. I consider myself healthy-ish. Normal body weight, exercise regularly. I don't eat great though. I scored over 90th percentile on the calcium test. That's not a good score at all. Like really shitty. I was even training for my second marathon at the time of the test. So I don't know where the correlations are. I think it's genetic because I told my dad and he said his was bad too. And he's in better shape than I am today My cardiologist said there's no need to do another calcium test. He said it's a good data point, but doesn't mean anything definite by itself. However, I did do a stress test also and he said that should be repeated every couple of years because of my poor calcium score
  8. Each Wes Anderson movie is more Wes Anderson than the last and I'm here for it.
  9. Bah gawd, that's the referee's music!
  10. Stay on target... /Porkins
  11. I want to hear from the mic'd up dad now.
  12. What are the most common ways to finance a remodel when the rate on the original mortgage is low but current rates are what they are? Roll everything into a new loan at? Seems counter intuitive.
  13. I think it's referring to the one basket they've made halfway through the second half. Their sole basket, if you will.
  14. We're back baby! Topped out at 148 hours. Hoping tonight's storm doesn't restart the cycle. As long as it was 60 degrees outside, it was fine. Not ideal, but bearable. But I wasn't looking forward to 48 degrees tomorrow morning.
  15. 144 hours and counting.
  16. this is the correct response to my hopium post up above. They fixed the power two streets over yesterday before dark and drove away. Nothing today on our street. I called the Austin Energy service line and they basically read the details from the outage map to me. "Oh, yes. I see it's you and 50 other customers that don't have power."
  17. This is fine.
  18. Crews appeared a few streets over a couple of hours ago. They were accompanied by at least five trucks of A&M Forest Service folks to help clear trees and branches. Hoping they don't pack up when it gets dark because what they're working on now won't fix our street. We'll be fine another night, but I'd really like to dress in the morning with lights.
  19. I can't get fitted for my hundred hour jacket until 11 am today. I don't see my appointment getting cancelled.
