  1. We had this problem until I started sitting in driveway and singing "The Door Is Closed!!" at full volume when it touched down. The fact that my daughter would do it too when I wasn't in the car only kicked it up to the next level.
  2. Problem solved, folks.. Texas Passes Law Allowing Students To Lasso Teachers Who Promote Critical Race Theory, Drive Them Out Of Town
  3. I absolutely read that in Dennis' voice: (and what I wouldn't give for a strange woman lying in ponds distributing swords right about now)
  4. That's a beautiful blade... "Fart" on the liner for when you really need to cut one?
  5. Similar thread that weaves some of that same history into the origin of "Cowboys". Might be relevant to this here Texas board? https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1378451760939945988.html?fbclid=IwAR1IoILXj98iXLMc2XvbfQNh0-LGOqVmKRhZRF1d-H2E81g9UH1TtV-V6QI
  6. Shit, Republicans keep bitching about the lack of investigation into BLM/Antifa riots last year, just give them that.
  7. Have you had that shit? Totally understandable...
  8. Interesting Freakanomics podcast from a few weeks ago: https://freakonomics.com/podcast/minimum-wage/
  9. SIAP- I thought this was interesting: Statewide Reopening During Mass Vaccination: Evidence on Mobility, Public Health and Economic Activity from Texas (abstract below, emphasis mine)
  10. Parliament Funkadelic, on the other hand...
  11. Or he's one hell of a blues guitarist... or both.
  12. Creed is better with Myles Kennedy.
  13. The Leavenworth idea ain't bad... but east of there is pretty bland. However, some of the best hiking in the state is in that area, up Icicle Creek. Further north, Highway 20 is just open in the last week or so- that would be my suggestion.... north to Mukilteo, ferry to Whidbey, through Deception Pass, over to Mt. Vernon (much cooler little downtown than Burlington, if you're looking for a place to get lunch). Back up to 20 and along the southern edge of the NCNP. Three options from there: When you get to Twisp, you could go south on 153 to Chelan (Lake Chelan is nice) and then head east to Spokane... high desert vistas Follow 20 to Omak, then 153 through Grand Coulee (DAMN!) and then onto Spokane Follow 20 all the way to Colville, then 395 into Spokane (more green/mountains) If I was with my father in law, we'd do the dam (he's a bridge engineer). If it was just me, I'd take 20 all the way to Colville, and then into Spokane (I'd probably car-camp and do some day hikes). If you're looking for some hiking options, here's your best resource for trails and such: WTA Database So, I guess it depends on what your hopes are for siteseeing and what your plans are for lodging.
  14. And then, majestically, they all entered the surf and swam back to their pod...
  15. True, but they are used to close shaves...
  16. Nope. Shoreline. But yeah, that place off Holman is a joke too.
  17. Jack's is about the best I've found here, although Wood Shop is close. I can walk to a place advertising Texas bbq... Dude from California who smokes "off site". Just the worst.
