  1. When I was growing up, I also was a big fan of Piccadilly Cafeteria in Memorial City Mall. Salisbury Steak was on point back in the day and, as a little kid, getting to throw my tray on that conveyor belt when I was done was fun. Simpler times.
  2. Small chance they tell you it's a protected species and can't be moved (don't know if that applies to a private residence, but it's still the right move.
  3. Semi-Slam (TM)
  4. That's been the state of tennis for a while. Before those two, it was Djokavich and Rafa, and before that Rafa and Roger, and so on. There's a lot more room between 4--12. 3 seems like always the bridesmaid.
  5. I don't think he's hanging it up. The guy just pulled a Semi-Slam (TM). He's, from a practical standpoint, a top 3 player in the world. And I think he wants to see if something odd will happen to get that last trophy. I honestly hope it does, but they're long odds.
  6. Could use some Jello cubes, but nice tray.
  7. If that's true, whoever made that decision could fuck up Christmas. We've lost so much. May this be the tipping point. Tyler had a cafeteria called Traditions, which was started by a former Luby's employee. The food was identical if not slightly elevated, and once inside, you might as well have been at Luby's (and we had three other Luby's in town). It recently shut down (after we lost all of our Luby's). It's been a small but noticeable hole in my eating-out existence these last few years.
  8. My sides will be mac n cheese and xxxx with a roll. But my ordering the fish never is in doubt.
  9. If they were going to screw up something, why did it have to be the fish? Luanne Platter is rolling over in her grave! That said, I would smash that fish like the fist of an angry god. It's been too long.
  10. I think you show up with your own tray and silverware wrapped in a green, linen napkin and walk that to-go order back to the office.
  11. Glad they're getting to the bottom of that JonBenet Ramsey thing.
  12. As does yours.
  13. I'm starting to see a correlation with the THC vape sales ban and all the PAX dry-herb vape ads I've been getting in my instagram feed these last few weeks. Moose out front should've told me though.
  14. This movie will never get old, and the soundtrack is a total banger. There were other aspects of this movie that were bangers as well. edit: And that ski ballet shit remains one of the coolest things ever (visually) and should have remained part of free-style skiing. I tried for years to pull off that pirouette move without a hint of success.
  15. Somewhere, there is a sane, legislative strategy. It begins with, "No matter what you do or how hard you try, you're never going to keep people who want weed from getting weed." Also, thankfully, Texas can't impose tariffs against other states or these buffoons would have tried it already. Baffoons: Hold my cup of decaf tea!
  16. Yeah, I saw that. But it doesn't ban possession. So looks like some other states will reap the tax revenue on shipping those products to Texans.
  17. Going to see the IMAX screening this afternoon at 4 pm. Glad to hear the good reviews. First time seeing it on a big screen of any kind.
  18. No, I think he needs to stop getting laid. Women weaken legs. The rose goes in the front, big guy. And so on.
  19. A couple of people I was watching the game with wondered if he was injured and the side arming of the ball was something he was doing to play through it. I watched a few passes from the MS-ST game last year and his motion looked different to me.
  20. I sanded my Lodge down several years ago and reseasoned. It definitely was an improvement.
  21. From the Lake f/k/a Granite Shoals FIGHT!!!
  22. On video, at least, I don't think the man has used the same nonstick pan on camera twice. And that's fine (for the food).
  23. I'll go you one better: What if, in this scenario, Jordan Shipley and Parker Livingston were roommates? That'd be something to talk about.
  24. The one exception is his using a metal fork in a non-stick pan to make an omelet. His technique is of the gods, but I've got enough PFAs in my bloodstream from my mother's nonstick that probably wasn't replaced for decades until I showed up with a couple of new pans one year to explain that those flaking bits probably weren't good for any of us. I don't use nonstick, but if I did, I'm not doing any violent whipping and scraping with metal forks anywhere near it. And that's why my omelets will never be as good as the ones Jacque and Julia made. And it probably doesn't matter because they both made it (will make it) to their 90s. Pass the butter.
  25. Oh, wow! My father in law had that poster at his lakehouse (doublewide). Wonderful artwork and informative.
