  1. Monty Python and The Holy Grail - not sure which genre as there was nothing quite like it. I suspect spoof/parody. It beat Airplane for a spoof movie by five years, but Blazing Saddles was released a year prior.

    I think the last time we gave up the first goal on the road and came back and won was July 2022 against Colorado. That was a great win with so many players out, players in odd positions, etc. I hope we keep Owen at least one more season.
  3. For those here not named Vic - according to the google via an incognito window: SSBBW is an acronym that stands for Supersized Big Beautiful Woman and is used in specific communities, particularly in dating and social contexts, to describe women of very large stature. It is a term for a subset of "Big Beautiful Women" (BBW), often referring to those who weigh 350 pounds or more, although the term can be subjective.
  4. I got an email from peacock announcing The Paper from the same people that brought you The Office. I wondered if the storyline was at all related to Ricky Gervais' After Life series (which was set at a local paper), but it doesn't look like it. I'll probably give it a shot either way.
  5. You know he can't see your post. Unless, of course, someone quotes you.

    Interested to see the team that starts on Sunday verses Sporting KC. Svatok, Uzuni, Periera, and Cascante all called to national teams. Ilie was went out last week with a back injury and was on the injured list this last game. Additionally, Sabovic was pulled quickly on Saturday with a knee issue. With luck, Ilie and Sabovic will be well enough to take some minutes. I suspect Mateja Djordjević will see the pitch for the first time.
  7. My second shot was worse than the first. Better than shingles, though.
  8. Carry it? I bet he stuck a bunch of straws together, sat down next to the tub, and drank the whole thing right there.
  9. That's very sad, Mittens. The last two Surly members that I know of passing were participants on this thread - both in their late 40s or early 50s. Both led extraordinary lives, had loving families and friends. As mentioned several times above: this thread is important to our community. There are plenty of active members with decades of sobriety that will respond to anyone seeking help. There are several of us that started the road to sobriety by reading these posts, relating to the stories, and staying sober by reading every time the thread is bumped. There are several lurkers that are evaluating their relationship with drinking and, hopefully, working to curtail or stop.
  10. Got eight this morning at one lease - should have limited, but i was missing everything with my 20g. Was still a fun, beautiful morning with the fog rolling in. Got home and made some poppers. Went to a new lease this afternoon. Birds were sporadic, but ended up with three more dove and two pigeons. I think I'm going to need some larger jalapeños.
  11. That's a good question because there are some Blacks that I really don't like - Kent specifically.
  12. Possibly
  13. I'm looking at a couple of 2022 4Runners - TRD Off-Road Premium. One has the KDSS and the other does not. I'm nervous about any additional hydraulic system since my wife's Limited's X-RES system started leaking at 70k. I understand the ride quality is better, but the cost to fix that stuff is ridiculous. Anyone have experience with the KDSS, good or bad?
  14. No chance that he's received multiple offers over the last ten years and the number gets bigger as the property increases in value.
  15. Change of pace. Stopped by El Grandpa Barbacoa this morning. Arrived around ten til 8:00 and walked up to the trailers and seating area. Grandpa was already giving his explanation of the business and is history. There were probably 20 people there when I got there. Mostly families. Next we were invited into the trailer to witness the opening of the pit. As he was unpacking the pit, he pulled out at hunk of lamb, yanked out the rib bones, and started passing out tacos. Following the pit unpacking, we went back out and ordered. I got a sampling of tacos, a pound of lamb barbacoa, and some consome to go. When I left there were over 100 people eating and ordering. I was the only gringo. Got home and ate the cabeza de rez and the pancita/montalayo (lamb belly). The beef was great. I didn't like the lamb belly as well. Both of the salsas were incredible. I also took a couple bites of the jalapeño lamb sausage taco, which was great as well. If you like non pretentious tacos cooked in a traditional way, it's worth a try. They're only open Saturdays and Sundays from 8-11. I'd suggest getting the early to see the unloading and getting a free taco.

    That was a fun game. The five man back line held great with the only goal coming on a set piece. Both of our actual goals were good and the own goal was karma.
  17. Big Noon on Fox doing a tribute to Corso. Pretty cool.
  18. From setting up tents, tables, and chairs in the backyard getting ready for my recent UT grad's watch party . . . FIGHT!
  19. The nice thing about going on Sunday, even if not going for breakfast, it's that when you get in line it's already moving. On Saturday if you get there at 9:00 the line doesn't move until 11:00.
  20. @Pablo this is my report from about a year ago. I have seen a couple other Sunday morning reports, since hitting #1, of people getting there between 5:50 and 6:50 and eating before at 8:15 and 8:50 respectively. You can order the entire menu on Sunday mornings.

    Doja Cat is out to be replaced by The Killers. Thus, I had to by a couple 1-day passes for W1/Sunday for my lovely wife.
  22. Yeah, they use M&M rotisseries which burn real wood. Burnt Bean has an M&M rotisserie as well, but I'm not sure what they cook on it as they use traditional offsets for the heavily lifting.
  23. Looks like a great supporting cast. I hope its not merely a bunch of cameos.
  24. Looks like she's been buttering her muffin - repeatedly.
