    [Brazelton] Pete Rose - 83

    As much as I can admire him as a player, as a manager he screwed himself against a commissioner that wanted to flex his power. Rose made the deal to avoid worse consequences, banned for life, but now that life is over. Giamatti was a weak commissioner and used the stupidity of Rose to try to...

    Minor victory thread

    I honestly cannot fathom what that is like. I will still have to mow the yard at least 3 more times between now and March when it becomes a 2-3 weeks between mows. It slows but never stops here. We had the big snow event (big for southeast Texas) a couple of years back, but I shoveled the walk...

    The Awesome Videos Thread (with Extra Sauce!)

    There are a couple of things I’ve either done or think I could do after my “Oh Fuck No!” in the video. I couldn’t do the top of the mountain spine, just fuck no. I’ve ridden across a steam on a fallen tree, actually ridden across a bridge on a train rail. But that slack line is also way off the...

    For some reason that seems like the perfect story for you.

    The Random Crap Thread 2: It Hits the Fan.

    What was that sonny? We’ve gotten so d our hearing is starting to really go. It only uses to be we couldn’t “hear” our wives, now we can’t hear the announcers of whatever sport I’m napping to.

    [Webcomic] The Order of the Stick thread

    I’m reminded of that each morning. He did fail to kill a toad he brought in last week, left it alive in the bathroom, wife saw it and thought it was dead, but when she came to tell me and for me to get it out of the house it had hopped off into our bedroom where I eventually found it.

    Whats for Dinner?

    We usually go a little darker, not much that’s getting to dicey territory of oops it’s a burned mess now, and of course it lightens some after adding water and stock.

    [Movies] MCU: Phase 5 - To Kang or Not to Kang

    That looks like some fun popcorn movie stuff. I hope it plays out the same way. “It’s bullet-proof-ish!”

    Whats for Dinner?

    Yes it does. Yes it does. Looks good, lighter than the typical roux that we make, buts looks tasty.

    The Random Crap Thread 2: It Hits the Fan.

    I understood, I wasn’t trying to say you didn’t, sorry if that came across that way. By that time that I saw ANH in theaters I had actually become friends with many of the actors from the movies. David Prowse, Jeremy Bulloch, Peter Mayhew, Kenny Baker, and several Jawas, Stormtroopers, rebel...

    The Random Crap Thread 2: It Hits the Fan.

    I didn't see ANH in a theater until February 1997. Almost 20 years after the first time I saw it... in a drive-in with one crappy speaker barely hung into the driver's side window. Even with the stupid added scenes the 1997 experience was much better. As far as computers go, I didn't have a...

    Yep, and really hate that it was Hamlin that he hit. You could tell Hamlin was trying to really hit him.

    I’m the oddball, I don’t have one, don’t plan on starting one, and don’t listen to any. To me, podcasts fall down around audiobooks, I can read it faster, and don’t have to listen to you butcher the language at the same time.

    Well, I do have to say that I’ve heard that phrase from many family members from Dallas. They are basically not on the internet.

    That would be filled and handed over quickly, doesn’t even matter if you’re picking up a narcotic for your wife because you know her birthdate. This is my experience.
