  1. Iran just struck Tel Aviv and CNN says dozens of more ballistic missiles are on their way. Holy shit.
  2. The fact that no one has said a word about the recent announcements from Apple says everything you need to know about the direction of the company. Transparent buttons and now CarPlay plays video? Great job Apple. Way to push out technology that's been on the market for a decade. Next year I predict they'll make a CD player that doesn't skip when you jog with it.
  3. Aren't those 2 pairs of the same thing? Bath sheet = bath towel. Face towel = wash cloth. Only 1 of those belong in the bathroom. Wash cloths stay in the kitchen or the garage.
  4. It was uncommon in my home growing up. Mom made us use a fresh towel for every shower. Didn't learn until college that most people don't do that.
  5. Congrats to Tech on their million dollar player. We'll take the championship instead.
  6. 1 hour 50 minutes is the shortest 9 inning game in Texas Rangers history
  7. Ames opinion is live. Unanimous opinion written by Jackson with a Thomas concurrence. The heightened standard for majority groups to prevail on a Title VII claim does not jive with the law or court precedent. 6th circuit vacated and remanded.
  8. There could be a real chance that someone else is being associated with your wife's SSN. It doesn't mean they're going to these places saying "I'm Wiler77's wife and my social is 123-45-6789". When you do a records search on me there is a guy in Houston associated with my social. He's not impersonating me at all but somehow he's connected to my social. It could be something as simple as records mistyped and it got gobbled up by a data broker before it was corrected. Your best move at this point is to freeze your credit with the big 3 bureaus, get all 3 credit reports, and then get a LexisNexus report as well. All of this is free.
  9. Holy shit I'm glad I jinxed us last night
  10. I got bored at lunch yesterday so I did some math. If we had league average ERA (3.99) our Pythagorean W/L would be 21-36. That would put us at 3rd worst in the AL, 4th worst in MLB. If you look at the 1973 Rangers team (I only picked them because they had the worst record for a 162 game season in franchise history) they won game 21 on June 20th. Point is: this team sucks. Don't let the standings fool you. If we don't start swinging the bats it's only going to get worse
  11. We have the worst OBP in the league. Wow.
  12. There's no doubt that Snow's puts out some great BBQ but there's great BBQ everywhere these days and plenty of joints that don't require you to line up at 2am so you can eat at 10.
  13. Glad to see B4 in Mabank made the list. Still surprised that Brix didn't crack the top 50. I feel like they were really close in 2021 but not enough to push them over the edge this year. I feel like DFW as a whole got crushed. All of the good Q seems to be moving south which sucks because I hate driving but at the same time it means new flavors and experiences.
  14. Big day tomorrow! Any predictions? Goldie's still gonna be number 1? Franklin falls out of the top 10?
  15. Peterson answers hypotheticals like my wife.
  16. If you know a really good BBQ joint that's not very busy, this is the weekend to soak it all in before Texas Monthly releases the new top 50 next week.
  17. Last night I got my 4th wedding invitation for an October celebration. Jesus fucking christ.... No joke. Every weekend that month someone I know is getting married. Thankfully the wedding I care the most about is on the Sunday after the shootout.
  18. Aside from knowing the fundamentals, make sure you set realistic expectations from the start. If you go into this telling kids they're gonna kick ass and they lose every game I promise you'll lose half the team and will never see them again. If they're not having fun, don't be surprised if they don't show up for the last game of the season. I speak from experience both as a volunteer and a player.
  19. Does CUN still have the dreaded red button after international arrivals?
  20. And never having to deal with the Texas heat or arctic cold front at a gas station.
  21. @High Plains Drifter had a wonderful post that gets my complete and total endorsement. The only thing I'll add is to shop at the French Grocer just a block away from the lovely Gage Hotel and get you some homemade potato chips. Holy shit we got two bags for a trip to Big Bend and they're better than anything you can buy at HEB.
  22. He just released a music video for his latest song titled "Heil Hitler" and no I'm not gonna share a link to it lol
  23. A man can only handle so many bubble screens designed to lose yards.
  24. Amen brother. I was a young dumbfuck but I made the mistake of thinking I could preserve my job security in corporate America by being the best at what I did. Turns out that was a huge mistake. It was only afterwards I realized that corporate America operates on a bell curve. The top performers and bottom performers are the number one targets for upper management. The best position to be in is average. If you're like me, aiming for average is the exact opposite of how I was raised by my parents. I just wasn't born to be a corporate man.
  25. Democrats won all over DFW last night. Two Prosper ISD board members who originally ran because of sexually explicit books were unseated. Every Collin County Democrats endorsed Plano city/ISD candidate won too.
