The God of Grift!

We also have Dietz & Watson at certain groceries, and they’re roughly equivalent. Their steakhouse caramelized onion cheddar is a GREAT workhorse cheese. I get it every time I see it; it’s a nice cheat cheese for making a faux-Philly cheeseteak.

I certainly didn’t for reaI, since I’ve never read any of the fiction associated with D&D. Welcome, Mr. Knaak!

This may be the very first picture with me in it: That’s my Mom, shaking hands with her collie, Darren, who had been instrumental in helping her snag Dad. Darren was absolutely nuts for my Dad, and would raise a joyful ruckus whenever he saw Dad walking by the house. He was a good boy, and...

Thanks! That’s cool! I wouldn’t be surprised if he didn’t know this guy from my church who passed last year. He had to decide between becoming a professional photographer and joining CS&N, and chose photography. (According to him, he wasn’t a fan of “The Lifestyle”.) He started off with the...

Not AFAIK, but the family is big & sprawling. According to family lore and The History of Black Catholics in the United States, we DO have roots in parts of Canada (mostly Quebec), so its possible someone went West instead of South.

Well, as it so happens, after several YEARS of waffling, I finally ordered a looper today: a Boss RC-10R. It should arrive in about a week. I had just taken Mom to an appointment literally on the other side of the parking lot from my FLMS, so we stopped in there to put in the order.

Here’s the Legal Eagle discussing one of the early major cases of AI hallucinations in law:

I’ve said it before; I’ll say it again: I’ve always preferred colder temps to hotter, and having nearly died by both hypothermia and hyperthermia hasn’t changed my preference any.

My Mom was a music teacher at Landry in NOLA while my grandfather was a principal there. They had similar stories, but one that stood out for me was “The Day They Set The Trees On Fire”. Really, not much to tell beyond the headline, but it should be noted that when fellow New Orleaneans find...

Going farther back in time:

No movie was made explicitly about him or his protégés, but they had many stories that could have been the inspiration or one of the inspirations behind a movie. For instance, there was a school here in D/FW called Carter High. In the 1980s-90s, it was so crime ridden that it seemed like there...

Drifting off slowly…

The only public access channels I watched on a regular basis were in Austin, TX, plus one particular one in Irving, Tx when I moved to the neighboring town of Coppell. In Austin, I saw the stuff you’d expect if you’d seen SCTV or UHF, but also a couple of solid advice hosts, live music...

Hey, he let her know he was there. He definitely didn’t have to. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Man_of_Steel,_Woman_of_Kleenex Tangent: a girl I knew in college had a fling with an Army Ranger who free climbed a wall to knock on her bedroom window.🤷🏾‍♂️

In some ways, you’re not far off. He had an ever present aura of fear & respect. He was a smart, driven man, and no-nonsense. He channeled that into becoming an educator. He taught HS & college courses, and was even a principal- actually, the first black man to be a principal of a white...

Well, it interests you AND you’re motivated. That’s 2 in the + column.🤷🏾 And the third one- whether you have a knack for it- you can’t know until you’ve invested some time learning.
