Hey Metro users, worried that SafeTrack is behind schedule?

China shows you the way- as they built an entire train station in NINE hours!

I happened to catch Battleship flipping channels, and I kind of got into it. Hella-dumb though. But, hey, Rihanna and Brooklyn Decker. That's gotta be worth something. Didja know Brooklyn is a Tar Heel?

If you want a female lead, just make the Borne movies with a female. That was the point of them. To NOT be Bond...

I think the point was just to have a new super agent. I don't think the point was to not be Bond.

 

James Bond is just one of a series of 00 agents. Q and M were always men and they became women. Same thing.

 

Maybe we start with a female who identifies at male, let that come up to speed, and then put a female in later.

I actually didn't mind Salt, that's probably on my list of bad movies I'll rewatch if they're on. I like movies where you know that the lead actor is doing all their own stunts. Like when you see clips of the Mission Impossible stunts being filmed and you know Tom Cruise is actually out on the ledge of that skyscraper or hanging onto a plane - no CGI, no stunt doubles.

Why didn't they show the completed station?

True. In China they just use people instead of rail ties

[TheCityGame]

I love the comments.

 

Like the one guy who says, "@australia this is how you do it Australia!"

 

Or the guy who says, "China is light years ahead of the U.S. in transportation and infrastructure. The U.S. needs to up it’s game."

 

And his only response is #commie

Any of you commies playing golf this weekend?

[pquarta1]

Any of you commies playing golf this weekend?

 

Probably not, but maybe. Weather looks suspicious.

[dcmidnight]

Going to play Thursday but unf weekend looks lousy.

 

Hitting the golf expo first thing Saturday AM, wind chills look like low teens.

Yeah, the forecast doesn't look good. Saturday: 38 with a 12 mph wind, Sunday 45 with rain/snow.

HBD has some intel on BR. Someone famous is buying it. I can't recall who. Calling HIGH BOOMING DRAWS. Where you at, guy?

Yes. That's it. Gmen to the rescue.

 

I really like Bulle Rock. You guys got a bad experience up there two March's ago. It's a great course and in great conditions. Worth a day trip for 36 holes at $190, IMO.

[eagle1997]

pq must have missed us making fun of ron jaworski's website when this news broke like 3 months ago.

 

brief reminder.

 

 

 

the logo.

 

dear god, look at that logo.

TEE TIME ALERT: Thursday at Waverly Woods, Maryland's best Public golfing venue. 2p'ish (145 to 215). Citygame is in. I'm in.

Is that ball coming at him or away from him. Very hard to tell. And why so serious? Jaws. Big golfer, hey? I think not.

[eagle1997]

first impression: looks like ron's name is being poo'd out of a giant butt.

 

 

also: replacing the "O" with a football? ingenious. really flexed the creative muscles with that one.

Completely agree. IMO you cant go early in the year, too much of a weather/conditioning risk.

 

Which is fine if you're paying $30-40 and playing local but not if you're driving that far and coughing up that kind of cash .

 

The last time I played there I had been chipping in the backyard and left not one, not two but three wedges at home. BR lent me a set of Vokeys to use.

Hoping to tee it up this Sunday if the weather holds.

 

Next Sunday is a hardware store convention in DC in which a Hall of Fame QB will be meeting fans at a booth. Which one you ask?

Think about it.

 

Who has fallen so far from grace they'd be shilling at a hardware store convention?

 

When my wife offered to tag along, and said that while I wander the booths, she'd be happy to stand in line to get some autographs, but when pressed, said she "really would just like to chat with him for a few minutes", triggering this Archer quote in my head?

 

 

 

That's right, Brett Favre for ORCA coolers.

 

Motto: "Just like a YETI, its not our fault they didn't file the patent."

Reposting because it combo'd the last one.

 

TEE TIME ALERT: THURSDAY, WAVERLY WOODS, NEED 2 PLAYERS. TEE TIME IS 150p. Currently me and the one 'n only, Citygame.

[TheCityGame]

I get "attitude" every time at Bulle Rock and I don't love the course.

 

I've never come away happy I went.

 

Maybe if I can toss the ol' Pigskin around with Jaws, that will be a different story.

 

[TheCityGame]

I have never known how bad Peter Brady threw that football.

[TheCityGame]

I started a fun thread in Instruction. It has devolved a bit, but I enjoyed the discussion.

I really want to do this, but I am holding strong for better weather days.

There will be plenty of opps. NBD. If you go out to Norbeckistan Sunday, let me know.
