    Top Gun 2

    Yep. Release date has been announced as 2059. Tom Cruise will look the same.
  2. I wonder how trained and qualified those crews are going to be? I imagine there is a shortage of experienced tanker crews as well and giving someone a few weeks of training does not an effective tank/tank team make. Much less coordinated armor, artillery, infantry activities.
  3. I had a Surly response ready initially...but I just can't. I'll save that for when we get all the good news. Very sorry you and your family have to deal with this. When I had my significant medical issue in 2012 being able to share here (or the Shag) and get supportive comments and some appropriate "toughen up" comments really helped. You want to be strong for your family, but you are still reeling. Looking back I said it took me a 2 days of my pity party before I could better understand the situation and focus on it. Not that I was good then, but just that I could focus on what I needed to know and what was next. The uncertainty for me was the worst part throughout, so pull whatever strings you have to get in with the GOOD and RIGHT doctors as quickly as possible. Ask your medical/doctor friends or your current physician to call and help you get in quick with the needed doctor. Good or bad, knowing what the mountain you need to climb is and what the options are makes it better because then you can plan and attack the problem. The unknown leaves you reeling. Also remember your family loves you and they are also going through this with you, so you have support and also need to be understanding of their fear, pain, love etc. Thoughts and Prayers to you and your family.
  4. Rectangle Pizza day slammed and went hard. We'd check the monthly meal calendar to make sure on these days we would buy our lunch. Mom tried to send some junk sandwich...no way!

    Top Gun 2

    Just saw it at early screening. Consensus is that it is good!, My 16 year old son said awesome. Wife said great! As long as you go in looking for Topgun 2 and not Citizen Kane, I think everyone will enjoy it. I was in High School when original came out and the feel watching it was the same. Well done.
  6. He was a security officer, not a police officer. So private security. His actions are infuriating, but unlike Texas, Florida does not allow (or did not at that time..may have changed) actual police to be assigned as security. I am curious what Uvalde had for security….but that is better for later discussion/review.
  7. Not sure where you are saying that was it was not showing up. I saw it as top story on CNN and then went to Fox to see if more info and it was lead there too. BBC has it at the top as well.
  8. What I have determined is that for many things in life you don't do them because they make sense or that you care about them, but you do it because it is important to someone else and that someone else is important to you. Kindergarten graduations are like this. My kids put on a play, they danced and they were very proud. It was stupid, but I went and cheered because it mattered to them. I will go to my kids High School graduation, but I won't go to anyone else's. Why? Because graduating from High School is expected in our family and is not a celebratory event...but it is my kid. But my kid and almost every other kid doesn't want to be there. Parties, gifts, sure...but the event itself is almost as bad for them as for everyone else. Other peoples kids (even relatives) can get a gift or a check, and if there is a party to attend with family in the vicinity I would go if they invited me. Otherwise...no.* *Note: Unless my wife says otherwise and makes it more unbearable to deal with her than to suffer through whatever shitty event du jour I am dealing with.
  9. Looks like there is a "Wall of Honor" on the side. They are going to need to get a bigger wall.
  10. https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2021/us/texas-covid-cases.html Loving County TX: Total cases all time 204 and total deaths all time 1. The 204 cases based on total county population seems high, so maybe they have a clinic or something that draws in some people living in a different county. Vaccination rate is 22% for 5 year and up, so likely people getting sick several times and popping COVID positive, but not seriously ill. But the population decline seems to not be COVID driven.
  11. ... And since the supply chain is broken and they can't import all of the coffee and other items they want to sell. Brave, brave corporate citizens!
  12. He completely slipped my mind.
  13. You little bitches need to have a bottle of rubbing alcohol pored onto your wound before you start complaining.
  14. He was watching his grandkids play walk in high places and play with sharp things until he remembered how great everything the Russian military is at everything they do.
  15. Stubbed big toe where you peel off the skin on the end because you were running outside barefoot. Hated that the most.
  16. Hit and run in a stolen vehicle?
  17. I told my wife that research shows that receiving a blow job before going to sleep greatly reduces Sleep Apnea for the recipient. Research also shows that ABSR's wife wants him either cranky or dead.
  18. Plastic seats were scalding hot too. I remember the plastic seats that had waffle like patterns so that when you wore shorts (70's shorts) and got out you had the red waffle imprinted on the back of your thighs for the next 30 minutes.
  19. I love Black Adder. Especially seasons 2-4.
  20. Whenever they want. They already have a Gentleman's agreement.
  21. I never knew Ronald and Wendy were Jewish.
  22. I’m glad he included racists. He wouldn’t want people who judge others based on superficial reasons to be left off.
  23. That’s the problem with this. Unless you don’t care about school districts, distance to job, or your friends and your kids friends, the best you can do is borrow against equity because if you sell you have to move somewhere else. And staying in the same neighborhood and schools will likely cost as much to find a new place.
  24. 56% YTY increase. Not trivial.
  25. They will hold the election just as soon as the pre-voted election forms are printed and arrive.
