  1. Yeah, that was a tongue-in-cheek suggestion.
  2. If someone put that in front of me right now, I'd smash it, and I think a lot of the people who say they wouldn't are not being entirely honest.
  3. This is something to consider. It helps. https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/treatments/24779-monalisa-touch
  4. With induction, unfortunately for me, I can't do aluminum without an adapter. I've got one of my mom's cast-aluminum omelette pans, and it's such a great piece, which hangs on my wall unused. I used to go to that one when I was in law school. My favorite story about the Westheimer location was the dinner after my eleventh birthday party. We were at JCI, and my parents hired a Michael Jackson impersonator to show up at the party . . . about a year or so after MJ ceased to be cool (to 5th graders). I have memory-burn about that dude trying to get me to dance with him in front of all of my friends. In hindsight, sticking to my guns and sticking to my seat probably was a watershed moment in my life for the better.
  5. The line about Yellowstone from the trailer was not in the film, and that's always rubbed me the wrong way.
  6. 1. Bad News Bears 2. Caddyshack 3. Bull Durham 4. Rocky 5. Karate Kid *Honorable mention to Varsity Blues for the chuckles and for the opportunity to watch Peter the Great throw the ball around. I give it a 10! Two tiens!
  7. Looks delicious. Is that an old Magnalite stock pot?
  8. Not that far to Sunbird either (although I think I read they were closed for a couple of weeks). Or even Pat Gee's for the sake of an interesting experience (I'm told). In other news, Jordan Jackson no longer is at Franklin, moved back to east Texas, and is doing BBQ restaurant consulting of some sort. While I don't know if there's a huge market for that, hopefully some people looking to open a BBQ joint around here will employ him, learn a thing or two, and start cranking out some good food.
  9. Bubba Hotep reference? I work with a guy who loves that movie.
  10. This hurts. I took years off my life in the Westheimer location.
  11. That was different. You see, Clinton engaged in an extramarital affair and then lied about it. Republicans will not stand for such an offense. What he should have done is paid her to keep quiet.
  12. So if he posted the bond in his name and someone else fronted the money, what are the tax implications on a $92M gift. Yes, I know he cheats on his taxes, but that's how they got Capone.
  13. I've had two anecdotes related to me from two different Latina friends: (1) as it relates to non-voting, the person just didn't think it would make any difference (this likely was as much an product of the person's youth and (2) as it relates to Latinos and Trump, his bullshit somehow equates to a machismo to which they closely relate (no idea whether that's true on a broad scale).
  14. Given the increasingly-decreasing abilities and aptitudes of Trump's attorney's, I could foresee your being on the voir dire panel, their taking the time to read all of your posts on Surly, and their allowing you to end up on the jury without objection. This missed opportunity is a loss for us all.
