First episode was good. Lot of ins, lot of outs.
Not a bad retirement plan to marry a collaborator widow and then inherit her estate.
Along the collaborator lines. German millionaires don’t like public scrutiny. In fact, there are some super wealthy Germans that you can’t find their picture. Very similar to Rolex. Try to dig into their business and see what you find. Very hush, hush.

Public employees in Texas can’t unionize. Dunno how that affects anything when whores, blow, and Lambos are already flowing freely.
One can only speculate, but involving Wage and Hour with their oversight is probably going to be an issue at some point. Throw in players having a voice in travel, practice time, overtime, etc. Add in right to work states and those nuances, and yeah it is going to look much different very soon.
On the other hand. Can you imagine a situation where the department of labor subpoenas Georgia over something similar to the car wreck scandal? All communications from cell phones, computers, will come out during discovery. It will be interesting. -

That's a function of this board/ community being awesome. That's also a greatness in which we (mostly) all contribute.
It has not a fucking thing to do with conference alignment.
i don't post on B1G or SEC boards. I joined Wazzu's board while Leach was there. Never thought about joining MSU's.
Tech's board flat out sucks.
and that SECrant is a fucking beating.

don't you find it strange that non Texas or even non Cowboys/Texans topics get 5-10x the attention?
No, not really. There are some clever assholes on this site. Fucking with those that ain’t us is pretty much a sport. Especially during the offseason.

Great video on the death of the middle class musician.
This was excellent! It was educational hearing how things like royalties, health care, pension money, etc factored into a musician’s income.

Could you expand details a bit on this for idiots like me?
I went to the IRS website to read about this issue. I’m hoping one of the lawyer types on this site chime in because that is a fucking complicated document.
I understand the 501(c)3 angle, but there is no federal legislation, it is very confusing for me.- 1

I never really understood the "West Virginia" angle. I don't think he ever lived there.
Trvia answer: he attended Texas Tech
It was written by a duo who went by the name Fat Tuesday. Believe it or not I learned that from the movie Logan Lucky. I had to Google their names, Bill Danoff and Taffy Nivert

Too late the hero. Old Michael Cain, Cliff Robertson war movie. I don’t think I have seen it since its original release. We are a much more sophisticated audience these days so yes, it’s dated. But, there is something about it that works.

How the I.D.F. Uses the Ruger SR-22 and 10/22 in Israel & Gaza:
https://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2015/10/21/israel-adopts-ruger-sr-22-in-less-lethal-sniper-role/
I had one of these. it is quiet, not Hollywood quiet, but pretty damn close considering you still have the noise of the bolt cycling. Their claim of 117db is subjective. It really depends on how sensitive your db equipment is. Where it is placed, and the atmosphere conditions. But, it is quieter than any 300 blackout or 5.56 suppressed that I have worked with, and I load my own ammo.
However $2200 is steep considering you still must supply a barrel and open up the barrel channel on your stock. And at the end of the day you still have a .22 rimfire.

No one?
I saw BOC do that live at the Fox in the early 80’s. They had some guy in an oversize Godzilla suit who came on stage with the dry ice fog after what felt like a five minute introduction. Everyone was thinking WTF. Apparently their big Godzilla that was the size of Iron Maiden’s Eddie was on the fritz. So they used this guy as the stand in.
But the guy in the suit had some serious moves! He was all over the stage, how he didn’t bust his ass was impressive. It was an absolutely fantastic show. Full disclosure….,I was really fucking high.- 2

Having range and different accents is all well and good for actors but has little to do with being a movie star. Being a star requires presence and fewer people have that. John Wayne was not a particularly good actor and he was basically some version of John Wayne in everything but he dominated every scene he was ever in. Gregory Peck was a fine actor but he was always Gregory Peck and that's who you came to see. Henry Fonda was America's moral compass until being famously cast against type. Richard Burton would have been the heir to Olivier but he relied entirely on his mellifluous baritone voice to carry every part instead of working. Sean Connery never met a role he couldn't do with a Scottish accent. There's a skill in being able to carry a movie simply by being Harrison Ford vs hamming it up like Gary Oldman
You are spot on. Duval ain’t Anthony Hopkins, but he is a star.

I regret not taking the full ride I was offered by Mines for basketball and academics. UT wasn't so bad, though.
No shit, basketball? That’s pretty cool!

The entire movie is damn near quotable. Harvey Korman fucking nailed the paddle board scene. Alex Karras knocking out the horse. The blackboard with nothing but the name Johnson on it. Lots of quick shots under a few seconds that were absolutely brilliant
