Grievous Angel

I spotted someone wearing a shirt with a pit bull on it.

No. My family is not trashy.

No. You need the one with all the white lights that makes your wife happy. Looks like it came out of a damn McRaes or something.

Then your second one can have the colored lights, tinsel, and a Santa Clause topper that looks like a rave.

Depending on how it’s framed, maybe not. A 50 year old Saban would have found a way. As would a 50 year old Bryant,

I'm not so sure. Both won by recruiting the best players. Sometimes 3 deep. Bear coached for a time when there were no scholarship players--there are stories of him recruiting players that probably wouldn't play just to keep another team from having them. This is probably why scholarship limits were instituted.

And how many times did you hear about how our second and third stringers were better than most teams' first string.

That is no longer the case. Saban may have adapted at a younger age.

Both were able to adapt their offenses and defenses to the changing times...but they always had the best players, 2 and 3 deep.

I know it's divisive on here but I really liked Sinners

I did too. But it's nowhere good as the "best" films I usually like to watch. Like something from the Coen brothers or Tarantino.

But it was good and I've watched it more than once. I think it will age pretty well.

Enjoyed Weapons though I don't quite see the hype.

Had fun at the theater with F1 and Tron Ares but don't much care to see them again.

I just listened to the Bill Maher podcast with him on it.

He was like most any other celebrity, so convinced that his ideas and opinions are objectively right and unassailable.

He came off as stubborn and stupid up against Maher.

What a loss - the man had a generational voice. My wife and I saw them 7 times over the last few years. Every show was amazing. An eclectic mix of Cuban/latin, blues, rockabilly, country, etc. Saw them in Baton Rouge and San Antonio in 2025 - so glad we did. For those who never saw him live, check out some videos. So sad to lose him so young, would have likely seen him another 7 times. Really sad about this one.

Five for us. Biloxi, Tuscaloosa (open for Dwight), south of Nashville (again, opening for dwight), the Lyric in Bham and finally the Ryman in 24.

This was after a long time of not thinking about them since the 90s. They got back on my radar and I discovered "In Time" and other stuff they did since getting back together. And I think Moon and Stars is an excellent final album as well.

They were in my spotify top 5 end of year review. They were very hard to "categorize." But if you went to one of their concerts and didn't have a good time, then I don't know what to do with you. Fantastic lead, fantastic band, and great songs. Going to miss them.

I made an online purchase for a TV last night. Their site said ready to pick up in 1 hr. I show up at 10 this morning.

You did see the part where they said they'd notify you when it was ready, right?

Interesting that this makes national news.

The rare OT 10. Has been since My Cousin Vinny.

Just perfection.

I like to look at them. But they are whores.
