    it would've been sooooooo much better for them if he was outside his lane, checking the gun "for safety purposes" and it went off and killed/injured someone.  we never would've heard the end of "you see, the way it works on a film set, is that only person who handles the blah blah stupid libs".

    In that situation I definitely would have been fine with them throwing the book at him. These were dumb charges.

    During a commercial break in The Hard Line I flipped it over to The Freak yesterday as I left the office to head to a work HH. Rhynes was going through his (presumably) Top 10 list of beans. Absolutely riveting. (The only thing entertaining in that stretch were drops played by Shoopy.)

    I was curious on the rankings and found the podcast of it so nobody else has to. 

    10. Garbanzo (Ryhner says he doesn't like Hummus, but then says he's never actually tried it)
    9. Cannellini beans (another he has never tried)
    8. Edamame (never tried this one either. Later decides he has had them.)
    7. Black bean (he doesn't care for these...I have no idea how this ranking system works)
    6. Green lima beans 
    5. Pinto beans
    4. Butter beans
    3. Navy bean
    2. Black eyed peas
    1. Red bean

    Can't believe I wasted 15 minutes on that pile of shit. My own fault.

    I need a tip, I should listen to the station.  all true.  but can you tell me more about this?

    It was in regards to the Abbott pardoning thing. Dan said something along the lines of, "he's pandering to his base because he knows his base hates 'black lives matter'...or just take off the word 'matter.'"

    Funny story about Jeff Love. I was at UHLC at the time and was at Locke Lord for an interview. They used to do these big "cattle call" style call-backs where the put us all in a room together at first then broke us out all over the firm for individual interview. It was pretty chaotic and I'll be honest made me lose interest in the firm. I didn't love the lawyers I interviewed with either. 

    After all the interviews were done we go the firm's lunch / dining / reception room to eat. This older guy - Jeff Love - walks up to me and shakes my hand. He introduces himself and says he went to high school with my mom. He tells me some good stories and is generally charming as hell. Talking to him was by far and away the best part of that day and it really stood out. What's crazy is that he went and did that with every law student there. I doubt he went to high school with all of their moms but he probably had some personal anecdote that he was able to share. You hear about that level of charisma but it is something else to see it in person. 

    He keeps a notebook and updates it several times a day. Seriously.  He's told me stuff about my grandfathers that I hadn't ever heard.

    So the Prius, while not technically an EV, but a hybrid, just hit 25 years old, so they came out with a new design that looks very nice.  This is the kind of stuff that Tesla should be doing (new designs) and it's the kind of stuff Tesla should be worried about (lot of overlap between the EV/hybrid crowd).

    Tesla can't cut prices again and again I suppose, but seems like their current market or the potential market for would-be buyers could be saturated.

     

    That looks much better than the last generation.

    264.8.  Finally!  2 pounds away from 60 down from my fattest. Now down 34 from the day of my surgery. 
    And I’m released from soft food today and can eat some food with actual texture and crunch. 

    What are you looking forward to eating today?

    Thanks fellas. 

    Pull it at 205.  So the oven would need to be at least 210 or so.  Right?

    Can I leave it in the oven for 12 hours or so?

    Thanks again.  I'm learning a lot

    I don't think you want to hold it at 210 for 12 hours if you pulled it off the smoker at 205.

    I probably started all this when I posted the articles on the science of the diabetes drugs (ozempic etc.) and the newer theory/science around how fat people are fat, so for that I apologize, because clearly being fat or a former fat is very personal and emotional for a lot of you. If you are being triggered one way or another (e.g. defensive and hurt like Wulaw or offensive and mean like aqua Buddha), this is probably not a healthy thread.

    However, I still think it’s very interesting and worth discussing.

    My sister in law used this stuff. The results were staggering.
