re: Seeking advice from the 60+ OT crowd

If you train jiu jitsu, don’t roll with white belts. 405 should be the time you wake up, not how much you can bench, deadlift, or squat. Running to the refrigerator is about as far as you should run. Never pass up a restroom and for the love of God, never ever trust a fart. I’m only ...
[quote]What about the one in Monroe? I never see cars there.[/quote] I worked there in the early 90's. It was literally one of the busiest Red Lobsters in the chain. I swear that place would be packed in a monsoon. Kinda hate to hear this, but not surprised. I think the seafood restaurant bus...

[quote] I’ve seen some pretty amazing physical and mental transformations in ladies that train.[/quote] I concur. We have several ladies at our school. It is kind of split between the girlfriends/wives of male students and obviously moms of kids from our youth classes that quickly realize the v...

[quote]Yea they're pretty incredible. Mine doesn't have a heated seat so I'm pretty jealous.[/quote] I think if you have heated water, the seat might be over the top. Nothing makes you feel cleaner and more refreshed than just making it to the head after running when it is frigid outside than th...
Funny that deads don’t really give me problems but heavy deep squats do and I say the squats that are damn near my max. It’s the strain trying to come out of the hole so to speak is what triggered mine. ...

re: day 4 with no power

Posted by MWP on 5/20/24 at 7:58 pm
Yep Generac is kinda the standard. I am in Kingwood and lots of people lost power here as well. They are trickling back on now. I would also check the Kohlers. My in laws who also live here put one of those in last year when my FIL pretty well had to have reliable electricity due to health. Be ...

re: Destin Course Recommendation

Posted by MWP on 5/20/24 at 7:48 pm
Agree, Kelly is my personal favorite followed by Regatta. I typically play both and that is the extent of my golfing hall passes since I typically also go offshore one day as well on our Destin vacations. One year I played just the courses at SanDestin and concur the Raven is legit. I honestl...

re: Ford Bronco Reliability

Posted by MWP on 5/20/24 at 11:39 am
So what motor comes in the Raptor Bronco and what size tires come on it? Price tag? Aren’t they pushing $100K? I have a buddy that has a ‘70 that he wants to sell. It is in pretty good condition. Not great, just good. I think his ballpark is $80K. As we all know the older ones in damn near min...
Well he could be screaming Mashed Potatoes. ...

[quote]This is a depressing existence.[/quote] So why did the school get rid of Coach Bowden? I kinda scratched my head over them making that move. He goes to church with my folks. Great guy and seemed like a good coach that wanted to build some roots in Monroe. ULM just seems to just be c...
[quote]Or if you win, you just get jumped or shot after.[/quote] We have training to get you out of those situations as well, but it is an add on. ...
[quote] have seen quite a few BJJ guys get their arse kicked in street fights[/quote] To be fair, BJJ is not really a striking martial art unless you go to a school that has a picture of Helio Gracie on the wall that you bow to before class starts. With that being said, we do teach some limited ...
Probably scared all the inmates when he started stretching and they left him alone lol. ...
Yes it would be priceless if he wore Fowler Orange tomorrow and maybe stenciled numbers on the front. ...
Man if Ruston can get a Buc’ee’s maybe yall could score a HEB as well. Aldi sucks btw. ...
Where was Ted when all this was happening? I kinda figured he would be driving but maybe he isn’t staying with Scottie. Weird. I watched the Golf Channel last night and Scottie stayed late at the course working on his grip on the range and putting with both of his coaches plus Ted. ...

re: Any jeep baws been ducked?

[quote]carpet, lectronics[/quote] Figured as much. My Jeep had a cheap Pioneer that may or may not still be there when you got back to it and I usually sprayed a water hose inside of it when it got muddy. More of a reason as to why own a new Jeep? ...
