  1. Wait, what was Frank Drebin’s previous username?
  2. Went to Crudo e Cotto on Friday (Mid Ln) after seeing it pop up on my IG feed. Authentic Italian sammiches, pizzas and pastas. got two pizzas for the kids (good), 2 pastas (vodka and carbonara) both good 7-8/10. The real stunner was the mortadella sandwich (I got it without zucchini because I hate that shit) but holy fuck was that amazing. Instantly a top 3 Houston sandwich for me (#1 being the French House ham & Swiss on French bread, and #2 being an OG Regular at the two Antone’s spin offs near the med center).
  3. Can’t believe I forgot to mention fatfuck aggy. Think I have ptsd on that pick and have selectively wiped it from memory.
  4. The OL is garbage. Don’t disagree at all. What did our shitty FO do this offseason? Get some fatfuck journeyman in Robinson, one of the lowest rated guards in Tomlinson and put a bunch of jags around an overpaid Tytus. Ersery may be good, but more likely he’ll regress to the shitty mean of this OL and not improve to + level. Scruggs, Fisher, trading 2 or 3 1st’s for Tunsil (I don’t remember how many exactly) and giving Tytus that contract are each, independently fireable offenses for Casserio IMO. He just flat out fucking sucks at OL scouting/talent eval. if the Bears OL dominates after spending all those resources this offseason to protect their franchise qb vs the fucking Goodwill bin we went to will be interesting.
  5. I’ve echoed this in threads among friends and everywhere else. Demeco’s fatal flaw will have been hiring an up and comer as OC first time and making that same mistake the 2nd time. That will be his undoing as a first time HC. I like the guy and know the players love him. But this is a results business and if you waste that “franchise” qb’s rookie contract and don’t win, you make it extremely difficult to do so after you re-up him. Especially since it’s now glaringly obvious he’s not a generational qb but an above average one. CJ didn’t do jack shit to will us to a single victory last year and he didn’t show any signs of doing that today. Whatever “magic” he had first year was either complete bullshit (most likely) or has completely evaporated due to lack of confidence in either the coaching staff and/or the players. Once we re-up him and give him the new highest paid qb moniker we’ll have 5 more years of painful mediocrity before we start afresh and Ryans gets fired. almost 25 years now of complete ineptitude at every level of this franchise. At least Hannah is totally fuckable.
  6. Tl;dr. Because you’re a fucking dumbass.
  7. I’m telling you, Holosun
  8. Found one on Amazon. Hope it’s not shite
  9. Picked up my first Ruger today. MKIV 22/45 Tactical. Had already purchased a Holosun 507C-GR-X2 with the ACSS reticle. Maybe a better question for Handcrusr but anyone know where to get a comparable Picc mount for the optic? And which one? TIA Forgot pic
  10. Heading up next week for 5 days with wife and kids (12, 10, 5). Want to do a nice sushi place but the two younger ones won’t eat sushi unless there’s a good robata program for the beef (youngest also likes karaage). Any recs? Staying at the Times Square Edition if that helps.
  11. Buddy sent me this today. Don’t know if it’s already been discussed. Would be great if true.
  12. Just picked up my newest toy. Put a Surefire x300 Turbo and Holosun EPS on it. Went back and forth on the optic with the EPS vs Trijicon RCR vs Aimpoint Acro. Wanted an enclosed emitter for sure. If it sucks I’ll throw it on my p226 and get the RCR
  13. PFO closure is indicated in patients who have cryptogenic stroke with no other, more commonly identifiable etiology, such as atrial fibrillation, carotid artery stenosis, etc. For patients younger than 65 who have had a 30 day event monitor to rule out atrial fibrillation and a carotid ultrasound to rule out carotid artery stenosis, we perform a transesophageal echo (TEE) to assess the morphology of the PFO (she’s probably already had a transthoracic echo (TTE) with bubbles to prove she has a PFO. if she’s deemed a good candidate, we perform the closure. It takes 30 minutes, is extremely low risk, and she goes home the same day. If the cardiologist is doing it without ICE (intracardiac echo), they’re a hack. There are 2 commonly available devices used, one from Abbott, the other from Gore. Both good with similar results and ease of implantation. Good luck!
  14. Firs time to Vegas in 2 years. Went a spent a day at the Bronco Off-Roadeo which was awesome. Got a suite at the Fontainebleau - hotel is meh and I won’t go back. food was meh. Maybe it’s because I’m in my mid-40’s and have been going to Vegas almost twice a year since I was 13 (slowed down to mostly annually once I had kids, but I never remember the place overall being so fucking trashy. Yeah, yeah, I know walking along the strip you see all the unwashed, but even in the nicer hotels I gambled/ate in, just nasty looking people who’d I just as soon like to take a flamethrower to as if they were homeless people living in a tent city.
  15. This can be tackled by any competent CT surgeon in any of the major medical centers. I sure as hell wouldn’t recommend getting it done in Amarillo, though. Houston, Dallas, Austin, SA you’ll be fine. I can give you a dozen recs in Houston if you’re interested. PM me if u want them. Good luck!
  16. Did someone earlier really complain about her legs?? She has the definition of perfect legs. If I could draw up my perfect female physique it would have those legs. sounds like somebody is too used to fucking fat ass zepol cholas
  17. Nothing yet. All about halting progression. In some animal models, PCSK9–Inhibitors like Repatha and Praluent have shown evidence of plaque regression
  18. I have tons of patients that have come to me from other cardiologists who milk the system getting yearly nuclear tests, asking for a nuclear for themselves. All of them asymptomatic. there’s a misconception that stents prevent heart attacks. Completely untrue. There are only two good indications for coronary stents: 1) during an acute heart attack - to save the patient’s life and prevent further myocardial necrosis 2) to limit symptoms of angina when medications haven’t helped when we Cath patients, we frequently encounter blockages that are 20-60% that we do absolutely nothing about besides aspirin, statin and BP meds. We are only supposed to stent blockages that are >70% stenosed because it’s at that point that there’s flow limitation downstream. getting a nuclear on an asymptomatic pt is bad medicine, and if positive, puts us in a bad predicament because at that point we’re left having to perform an unnecessary angiogram on a pt and possibly stenting them, commuting them to 2 blood thinners, and the risk of the invasive procedure which becomes even riskier when you’re “fixing” the artery, all for an asymptomatic pt. You did all that shit for a patient who never had any symptoms to begin with (all while not decreasing their MI risk)
  19. Calcium scores are not diagnostic. You just said you’re in good health, with no major risk factors. A coronary artery calcium score will risk stratify you and let us know if we need to be aggressive with risk factor modification like aspirin and statins.
