  1. So, according to this article, Trump's refusal to wear a mask was because it screwed up his makeup. https://uproxx.com/viral/donald-trump-mask-makeup/ Also, if a male magat isn't slathering on the bronzer, is he really committed to the cause?

    Vinyl

    I've got the Paul's Boutique vinyl. It sounds amazingly great!
  3. I've got my core crew. Now I'm inviting a bunch of people. The only way this could be cooler is if a bunch of my like minded friends showed up and enjoyed it too. Right now, I'm at 8 or 9. Gonna need to put the word out.
  4. I hereby strenuously object to any besmirchment (outside of the observations that he appears to be on the spectrum, which seems apparent) of David Byrne. Definitely a Top 5 band for me. A buddy of mine and his three kids are coming with me. I think there will be about 10 people present total based on my online ticket purchase availability map. This gonna be good. Big suit about to be the BIGGEST SUIT! I probably will dance. Not lying.
  5. She balls out on the Live in Rome concert film. Love her! About to get my tickets to SMS IMAX for tomorrow night. In other news, Tyler has an IMAX theater. I'll be interested to find out who the other three Talking Heads fans are around here.
  6. Based on my reading, it was the number 3 cause of death in 2022 and dropped to 4 in 2023. But if that drop is based on 2022 data, so be it. I didn't see that part. I'm not really trying to make a point, but I figured I had a minute and googled it. Like last year, I'm going to get the updated COVID shot and my flu shot as a simple matter of course. I'll probably do it next week. It's free and doesn't take much of my time. I'm not worried about getting COVID again or dying from it anymore than I am the flu. My bout with it last year didn't amount to much (and I may have had it a couple of weeks ago, even though I tested negative twice). But getting COVID and/or the flu is a pain in the ass. So I'll take simple steps like getting the shot if that means I can avoid getting it over the next year or, if I do get it, that it runs its course in relatively short order. YMMV
  7. Ordinarily, DOJ criminal prosecutions are exempted from government shutdowns.
  8. As of May 2023, COVID-19 fell to the #4 spot. Flu wasn't mentioned in the article. I haven't seen anything more recent. https://www.axios.com/2023/05/05/us-death-rates-fall-cdc
  9. That 62 Strat is pretty cool.
  10. Same. Greatest concert film ever. /yes, I'm aware of and love The Last Waltz.
  11. I'll chime in on the Bowflex. It's fine. We bought a relatively inexpensive one 19 years ago and it's still going strong. I use it 4x per week, but also keep some kettle bells around. The thing has saved me thousands of dollars in gym memberships, and I don't have to deal with the gym people. While it may not compare to free weights, it's been enough to keep things looking like they should.
  12. This is a good November 2023 constitutional amendment election for dummies article. Stay informed, and vote. https://www.texastribune.org/2023/09/15/texas-constitutional-amendment-voter-guide/
  13. I was at that game against Cal. That was the loudest and, shortly thereafter, the quietest I've ever heard DKR. We were seated on the goal line. So I didn't realize right away that Nick Rose missed that PAT. The Notre Dame game probably was louder I'm guessing. With regard to Sam, this is the play that always sticks with me.
  14. Came to post this. Common joke among a few of us in my office.
  15. I flew Frontier to Denver once. It was like a train trip to Mumbai where you can sit on the roof of the train car.
  16. This isn't my music. But a buddy and I had a few drinks one night and recorded ourselves playing an old Soulhat tune back in 2001. The live bit wasn't terrible, and I tracked it. My friend is on the drums and I played guitar and sang on the live cut, and tracked everything else. Be gentle. Link
  17. So tell us more about it. I went from twisted tele to a 51 Nocaster set in my 52 AV and was glad for the change, but the neck pickup is nothing like my 64 AV or my 90. Much more subdued, but not in a bad way. And it's a definite improvement over the stratiness of the TT neck pickup.
  18. Well, the '09 team also had a frustrating first half against Wyoming, albeit in Laramie.
  19. Me: Well, that's that. Commentator: DO YOU BELIEVE NOW!!!!
  20. I'm glad that this is the last time I'm going to have to figure out how to watch a Texas game on TV.
