re: Cormac McCarthy books are awesome

It may just be me, I’ve seen several people on here say it’s their favorite of the Border Trilogy

Read blood meridian last year and didn’t appreciate it until I found myself thinking about it a lot weeks after I had finished it. Its one of those that stuck with me which makes it great

Finished All the Pretty Horses last month and absolutely loved it. However, I’m reading The Crossing now and it’s a slog. I’m about 2/3 done and ready to be done with it. Not sure if I’m going to read Cities on the Plain or not.
The slow attacks frick me up more than the fast. I hit it to early every frickin time. The lampmaster has that huge sweeping 1 swing attack that is so easy to parry and I’d be to early on it every time and it’d wipe me out
I’ve put Lune on the bench since I’ve had Sciel. She puts out some serious damage once you get the hang of how Foretell works. Especially in the rocky area where the Nevrond are weak to dark. Plus her attacks just look badass with that scythe lol

Just finished act 1. Holy shite.
Pulled a 3am session tonight. Game is hard to put down. Just got to the Lampmaster and his 2nd form got me on my first try but it was close. Calling it quits for the night will try again tomorrow

I just realized I missed the Troubador optional boss in rising waters so will have to back track when I can

I would never listen to DMB in my truck or anything, but I saw him live at Hangout fest in 2012 on the beach for my 22nd birthday drunk and stoned out of my mind and it was probably the funnest concert I’ve ever been to. Me and my buddy still talk about that show. Haven’t listened to him since, but that was a hell of a night
All you get is a frickin swimsuit outfit lol
I’m pretty far behind you guys. Just left Flying Waters and did the platformer at the beach. Bout broke my frickin controller, I kept mis-timing the very last jump
The drinks actually stay in your system longer than smoking or taking edibles. Something about how it’s dissolved in your fat

If you really want to splurge on a nice dinner check out Sunset Monalisa. We went to cabo in March and i brought my Fiance' here for her bday and it was an amazing setting. Over looks the arch and is beautiful at sunset.
I’ll be locked in for the Iowa card next weekend. Bo vs RDR is interesting. RDR has legit grappling

You might hit on 2 out of 10-15. Not to say we havent done that, but the vast majority are camp bodies. Last year we signed 16 and the only one with a pulse was Tipton. The year before that signed 11 and hit on 2, Grupe and Orji. We did get Shaheed in 2022 , though.
Wasn’t able to watch last night sounds like I didn’t miss much

Garry’s only loss is to Shavkat and he looked pretty good against him. He should get a contender next

Every year we act like we get all these hidden gems with these UDFA signings and none of them ever sniff the field :lol:

Holloway isn’t the greatest but it’s way better than Nate. Max is still fighting at a high level, Nate is a trash can

Thinking about doing another 5 day/week program for May because ill be on a turnaround making it easy to get into an after work routine. Absolutely loved Dr jacked and Return of Dr Jacked which were both 5 days. Looking at Elbow Meat and Jacked Up Joker if anybody has ran these

Elbow Meat looks fairly intense, arms everyday along with bench 3x a week and alot of grip work. Jacked up Joker may be a better choice for summer because it has alot of high volume high rep stuff. I just dont like how it dosent have deads.
Has a team ever taken 2 QBs in the same draft? That seems unprecedented

Don’t shoot me for asking, it’s simply a question because of a podcast I was listening to. I have been amped since the first trailer I saw. But is there a substantial race component or implications to it? It was an all black podcast crew so maybe it was just for the jokes or something


Yes. It's still a good movie, but thematically its about cultural assimilation and disenfranchisement. This isn't a knock on it, but to say it has nothing to do with race is wrong. The vampires represent cultures stealing black music (blues) and making it their own with the promise of peace and integration that never comes to fruition. Its a smarter movie than people think, but a bit heavy handed IMO
