  1. The dominant party just moves it to the side.
  2. . . . and record the call to post on Surly.
  3. Haven't seen anyone mention John Mulaney's: Everybody's in L.A. "Look, you either come do bad things with me and Herb Albert, or you don't come at all!" -Lou Addler Edit to say that this is, without a doubt, the best talk show of all time.
  4. Can't believe I never saw this. Outstanding!
  5. Shorter line and shorter wait, but Stanley's is like that. One cashier for dine-in and one for to-go. Line hack is to call in your order from the line and go have a drink at the bar. But you end up eating your food out of a styrofoam container, which isn't ideal. But if you wait in line, it's reasonably quick, you speak your soup in a loud, clear voice, you pay, and your food comes out to you pretty quickly, and you have a chance to order your drink at the bar while you wait. It's not the worst.
  6. And let the people of Trump declare, "Our Gawd is a bigly Gawd!"
  7. This, all day long. Of course, Chapter one in The Secret of Success on Appeal is called "Win at Trial." The rest of the chapters have to do with what happens if you don't. It's also the reason that he's trying to avoid jail for contempt if at all possible and why he's being careful in tailoring the gag order. The last thing he wants is an interlocutory appeal with a possible stay of trial with a jury empaneled. Sure, it's a long shot, but Trump doesn't care about the odds (insert failed casino joke here).
  8. I remember it like it was yesterday. I know I'm mixing movie references at this point.
  9. The most ridiculous thing I ever did was take your mom to a nice seafood dinner and never call her again. Just kidding. I called her again.
  10. Yes. Because a prosecutor is not allowed to comment on a defendant's decision not to testify. So a short hearing where the defendant takes the stand for the limited purpose of acknowledging through a short Q&A admonishment, either with his attorney or the judge, that he understands his rights in this regard necessarily has to occur with no jury present.
  11. It's pretty standard to put a criminal defendant on the stand (outside the jury's presence) and admonish them on the privilege against self-incrimination and right not to testify (and that the prosecution can't bring that up in front of the jury), and if Blanche doesn't request to have Trump on the stand outside of the jury's presence to get his understanding of these rights on the record, the judge likely will.
  12. At some point, the analogy falls apart sadly. Just remember the judge sits on the case, we stand.
  13. Hear that, @South Austin? Don't quit that law gig for the NBA. But seriously, all the best to you and SA, Jr. in navigating this.
  14. Cool! Turn that bad boy up past 4 and it will:
  15. This video is long and not terribly exciting, but it really goes through how interactive the interactive volume controls and tone control is on a 5e3. There's a lot you can do with them, and it can be almost frustrating at times.
  16. Is that a Twin Reverb and a Deluxe or is there a deluxe version of the Twin Reverb? Not being snarky. I just haven't heard of a Twin Reverb "Deluxe"?
  17. I knew him and David Beebe. He was a year behind me in school, but he took several years off between high school and college to tour with BBS. When I was a senior, he was a freshman at UT and we had a biology class together. He's super nice and a great drummer. /I was trying to fix the spelling when you replied.
  18. They had some young kid play drums when they played Cottonwood in Houston. He was fantastic. That kid is in his late 40s.
  19. Conrad Chouroun of Banana Blender Surprise et al. He's been playing off and on with Kevin since the S'hat Records days of the early/mid 90s.
  20. Something like this? Oh, you mean their testimonies.
  21. Revenge is a dish best served cold.
  22. Yeah. I'm no doctor, but the first two weeks of this trial seems to have aged him. Or as the Candyman put it, "The suspense is terrible. I hope it lasts."
  23. Paging Dr. Lobo. There is a Dr. Ham for you on Line 5. https://dailyboulder.com/confused-and-helpless-trump-showing-clear-signs-of-dementia-psychologist-says/
