Texas game (coming from England)...

Hey guys,

I've not been to a game since 2004, and coming back for the Texas game on 14th of November and bringing 2 of my brit friends and my 18 year old who loves football and has only ever seen an NFL game in London...

Anyway, we have a tailgate invite sorted, but trying to figure out the best place to stay in the night...all the hotels around the stadium are fully booked, but there are some with availability out by the interstate...any idea how we'd get back out there after the game though?
Done what exactly? At this point he hasn’t changed anything in Iran, he’s done the equivalent of stirred up an ants nest and in the meantime caused the world to pay more for oil.
I live in Norfolk England, and I can tell you it’s much more peaceful than most places in the US that I have lived in before. I’d never move back to the states at this point.
No, he didn’t visit Rocky’s ship in the book, and there was also no bit about Earth in the future. In the book the Beatles head off and that’s it.

I also don’t remember there being an option for Grace to return to earth in the book.
The movie made me feel more emotional than the book with the Rocky / Grace relationship. Glad I read the book though as some of the sciency stuff gets glossed over a bit.

worry they’re going to dumb down Grace. I looked at some of the reviews that mention “Ken in space.


I’d say this did happen a little, they didn’t emphasise the problem solving skills as much in space…but they did in the flashbacks.
I’d say so (I saw it in IMAX), if for no other reason than the scene at Adrian if you’ve read the book
I just saw it and it follows the book pretty closely, can’t see how you could make too many criticisms on that regard
Just finished it, was early released for two days here in the UK…it was fantastic, if you loved the book you won’t be disappointed.
Headed to see the 4pm showing here in the UK (in just a few hours time). It's been a long time since I've been this excited to see a movie at the cinema.

Underrated in my opinion...very funny.
quote:

Whatever it is exists outside of time and space and has been here at least as long as we have.


Not sure what you mean here, are you meaning that I should think outside of the laws of physics as we understand them? If so, fair enough, but as a scientist I won't do that until it's proven otherwise.
Intelligent alien life from other star systems aren't just going to crash into Earth in some remote location. If we ever have or will be visited by intelligent life that has travelled interstellar, the world will know about it. To think that a government on Earth could stop that being known is pretty ridiculous.

The reality is that if we ever are visited it will likely be robotic, distances in space are vast and the amount of energy required to travel installer isn't something you can hide very easily.
I live in Norwich, UK, love it here, can walk around pretty much anywhere city day and night and not have to worry too much about my surroundings. People are generally friendly...certainly feel safer walking around in Norwich than I would in any similar sized city in the southern US. But hey-ho people in the States and right wingers here will still lead you to believe there is crazy shite going on...might be, but apart from from anti-immigration protests last summer I've not really seen anything.

Was my first game in Tiger Stadium as a freshman at LSU…talk about getting hooked in!
for 2019 alone, I was always love O...forever in history going forward you can ask the internet/AI, whatever, what the greatest college football team/season of all time was and that team will either be the answer or mentioned in the discussion. That will never change. Maybe he caught lightning in a bottle and then quit, but if Lane wants him back, I'm down.
I'd have rather had 2019 followed by what we had than 5-6 seasons of 10-2 and no title.

Hasn’t happened to me in the UK since you posted this (and prior it was happening pretty regularly the last couple of days)
