Stoli, you ever been to the oasis restaurant on lake Travis?
Wife and I went today after 10 years....it's not even a restaurant, it's a tourist trap now. There was a two hour wait, a line like cattle and a poorly run bar waiting area. Bathrooms had no locks, no toilet paper and on duty police with their hands resting on their guns.
They don't accept reservations, so I wouldn't go unless you can get on like a vip list or don't try to go on Saturday night.

Did you watch in person or on TV? I have not been to an in person game.

Then, I figured out that the playoffs were fixed. Oddly enough, a former ref came out with a book not long after about how they fixed certain games.
Haven't watched a game in decades. Don't miss.

In case anyone is wondering, Oasis is the restaurant where one of the Bush daughters used a fake ID to buy booze and the manager **** his pants and called 911 about it. Two years after that it was struck by lightning and burnt down.

I talked to an old lifting partner earlier. He got both his jabs in January/February. He is 35, lean, healthy, exercises regularly, rarely drinks, doesn't think all women are whores, etc. He does have asthma, though.
Anyways, he went to Vegas for a vacation a couple weeks ago and contracted COVID while he was there. He felt a bit crappy towards the end of vacation but pushed through it. He tried to get tested in Vegas but tests were booked up for five days. He flew home wearing a N95 mask. When he got home a rapid covid test came back positive.
His symptoms in general have been loss of taste/smell, mild fever that comes and goes, sinus congestion, and tickled asthma. He also experienced an intense 12 hour period of chills and body aches early on in his infection that didn't repeat. Mercifully, there was no real lower respiratory involvement. He thinks without the vaccine he'd have probably wound up in the hospital with pneumonia.
So that's the first breakthrough infection of someone I know.

I dont need to be one of those *******s who make a thread for this, if someone wants to know why im not posting they will see this when they check on my post history.
Im taking a break from this website for awhile, its fun, but I need to disconnect a little more in regards to politics and the internet. Trying to be on my phone less when I have down time is the main reason actually lol. These smart phones that we all own are a true energy vampire.
Stay safe boyos

It's a hot night. The mind races. You think about your knife: the only friend who hasn't betrayed you, the only friend who won't be dead by sunup. Sleep tight mates, in your quilted chambray night shirts.

I sprained/fractured it really bad in June of last year. It had been randomly giving me issues in the past weeks, but I didn't think anything of it. I haven't been to a doctor yet, probably going tomorrow....all they will do is tell me to stay off it and I already have a boot from last year.
Son is OK, I held him for most of the immediate drop, he landed on his hands and knees in grass.

Metroins - make sure you do regular adequate professional physical therapy for an extended period with a reputable therapist- stop the re-hurting ankle cycle.
Other news….
I’m exhausted- been a very demanding year - consumer demand off the frigging chain, labor shortage, supply disruptions l, etc
It would be interesting to track how many total milligrams of caffeine I’ve had this year.
I’m going to see if there is some how some way to plug in a sabbatical next year.
Thinking of selling every business I have left past my main gig - while the prices are hot.

Guess I can't remember the email I used for my original account.
No idea why I have this alt.
Anyone here remember me?
Started posting in '04 on my original.
Haven't posted or even lurked here for a good 4-5 years.
Hope all of you are doing well.

I thought your first jab was like 5 months ago.
