Know what Johnson did right? He concluded the Hero’s Journey.

To be fair, the R32 is actually pretty dang tiny. I’ve been in a couple, even a sedan, and they are positively petite by modern standards.

Cole slaw is the crown prince of a spicy fried chicken sandwich.

And RV dealerships are almost literally hell on earth.

We looked at some above ground options in the $10-20k range, as well as plunge pools and shipping container pools (closer to $50k to start), but decided the sight-lines in our back yard were more valuable, and again, the community pool is really nice and a 10 minute walk away.

Man, I grew up less than two hours from there, and there are sooooo many speed-trap hellholes in that state. Local know where they are, but that doesn’t even prevent Roscoe from pulling you over now and again just to assert his authority.

To be fair, there were numerous reports of Vettel, Ricciardo and some of their crew drinking at an outdoor bar down the street from my house (which is about 10 miles from COTA and the airport) the evening after the race.

I was there! And yeah, that was a super fun day. My brother and I just wandered. He had a press pass and got some really exclusive access to the pits and garage. We look enough alike that he gave me the pass, his tabbard and camera rig and I spent an hour or so shooting down there, too.

Where the heck are y’all getting $60k on the high end for a pool? They’re $100k to START in Austin. We got 3 estimates and the lowest was $98k. Standard package. Nothing unique or extraordinary. We just walk to the huge neighborhood pool instead.

My only experience is COTA, so it’s a skewed perspective for sure. 

One summer at band camp... we ordered an extra large pepperoni pizza, ate about half, and left the remainder in the box on the desk. We continued to eat the remainder over the next 2 or 3 days.

I live in Austin and will probably never attend another F1 race in person, after going to three. I’m good. The experience of watching the race is not great, if you’re not able to lay out the cash for a primo grandstand seat. I’m not sure that paying $250 to sit on a hill surrounded by thousands of sweaty, noisy people…

I guess his brother suddenly quitting the band with no real explanation makes more sense now.

Whataburger ketchup not available in stores outside Texas?

Always a good time to point out Spider-Man on my PS4 was the most fun I’d had playing a video game since Ocarina of Time, or maybe GTA3.

Co-op pigeon catching? If that were an option, could I also just my partner do it?

I still get sad for Martha...

(all bastards are cops are bastards)

It was like 20 years ago and I couldn’t find an attorney who’d take it. No money, and with no guarantee of settlement. The best outcome was the six months pay, out of court, and based solely on a threatening letter from a friend with a JD.
