“My car is low on its fuel because Amazon had a tech issue last night” is a very weird, but nonetheless very true, sentence.

Flew my first solo XC today, plus had a nice stop for a plane-watching breakfast on one leg. Been building up to this day for a long while, and it did not disappoint!

I’m a child of the 80s and I don’t think I’ve ever actually watched Goonies all the way through
Inspired by a post I just saw in which someone admitted they hadn’t seen a single episode of Friends nor the film Love Actually… what cultural hole do you have that’s a bit weird for your generation?
I’ll go first: I haven’t seen Dirty Dancing.

@mattwright.bsky.social free suggestion if you ever decide to expand the Better Half / Hold Out “2 concepts, 1 place” model to a new location
Restaurant idea:

I’m not saying anything much more-informed people aren’t, but the rapid erosion of the ability to trust the federal government’s medical agencies as unbiased and scientific will do untold damage that takes decades to repair.

We are, as of now, all of 2 episodes into “Somebody, Somewhere” and I see the special sauce that those of you who’ve already watched it saw. This needs to be more watched.

Obviously these were used pre-2024 to hunt for people doing a Horns Down. Not sure what they’re used for now, though.

In 9th grade, two of our teachers had a running “jokingly yell it out in the hallways” battle ongoing about whether the Civil War was about slavery or states’ rights.
One teacher told us “apartheid was good for S Africa;” another lectured that FDR “ruined the country” by making Americans “lazy;” yet another wld force us to watch Alan Greenspan lectures and preface them by saying “now that’s a smart Jew” (the teacher ofc was not Jewish)

If ever you’re passing through the area, the Llano airport is lovely. They have a free BBQ shuttle courtesy car you can check out to pop over to Cooper’s, and it’s well worth the experience!
