This is why you don't build statues to players on campus immediately after they leave
What Happens During the Tigers in the NFL Segment Now?
Posted by weaveballs1 on 8/13/26 at 11:19 am
LSU puts all of the former players that are still in the NFL on the video board during a commercial break, do they remove Daniels from the presentation now?

I remember seeing her on TV at the Heisman ceremony and the draft and she always had this stank arse look on her face and seemed pretty rude. I haven't watched the Netflix show but might need to now.

re: Big Bend National Park Border Wall
Posted by weaveballs1 on 8/11/26 at 2:55 am to HogBalls
Did we fence the rest of the border yet? If there is anywhere in the country that doesn't need it, it's here. There's hardly anywhere to cross as it is, unless you want to ride a donkey into Boquillas like Robert Earl Keen. The entire area is just hundreds and hundreds of square miles of nothing but inhospitable terrain and animals that can kill you. What are they going to do, run a wall through the middle of Santa Elena Canyon? It's so unnecessary.
I'm all for border walls where they make sense, but ruining this beautiful, unique natural landscape is a shame and resources are better spent elsewhere imo.

re: Is the Rustic Tap still the LSU bar in Austin?
Posted by weaveballs1 on 8/8/26 at 5:38 pm to R11
It's a bar in a place that isn't Baton Rouge where LSU fans gather to watch LSU games. Pretty self explanatory.

I switched from Verizon to GoogleFi and am saving about $100/month. It's great, no international charges either.
I actually had to file an FCC complaint to cancel my Verizon service. I've never been given the run around like that before. Screw that company.

re: Could you be an executioner?
Posted by weaveballs1 on 8/8/26 at 1:42 am to braves21
If anyone wants to read up on how they used to do it, I'd highly recommend The Faithful Executioner. Franz Schmidt, the executioner of Nuremberg, carried out 395 executions over his 45 year career that ranged from the late 16th to early 17th century. He performed everything from hangings to breaking at the wheel.
The book that uses excerpts from the diary he kept of all his assignments, is fascinating. It goes into detail not only about the executions themselves, but also the social and political realities of being an executioner in Europe during this period - which was not a desirable position. Schmidt's father was forced into the role when he was a child, he inherited it, and worked his entire life to see that his children were elevated above it by building a perfect reputation. Before Schmidt, executioners were pariahs, a necessary evil. They couldn't live inside the city walls, they couldn't join guilds, they couldn't even set foot in churches. Throughout his career, Schmidt changed the perception of his profession, even becoming a bit of a physician in Nuremberg during his retirement due to his extensive knowledge of the human anatomy. It's a great read.

I will be there in 3 weeks and hopefully get to view this exhibit with my Austrian friend.
It's well worth the trip, aside from the Franz Ferdinand exhibits, there is a trove of other military artifacts ranging from the middle ages through WWII. The collection is massive. It is certainly the best military museum I've ever visited. If you love museums, Vienna is an incredible city, they have so many. The Imperial Crypt is also a must visit, the detail on the tombs, especially the ones from the 18th century, is unbelievable.
The cover of the double tomb of Empress Maria Theresa and her husband alone weighs approximately 3800lbs. Wiki

Might need to fire up Blueprint for Armageddon again. I've been to the museum in Vienna where the gun Princip used, the car that Franz Ferdinand and Sophie were riding in, and the tunic he was wearing are housed. I had heard Carlin describe it on the podcast and wanted to see it for myself. It was the most sobering museum artifact I've ever seen in my life. You can see the bloodstains still on the fabric. Knowing all of the death and destruction that came from that one act, 2 world wars, millions dead, Hitler, the trajectory of Europe changing forever - to look down at that bloodstained uniform and think that it all started there is incredibly chilling. I wonder if Princip knew what the true consequences of his actions would end up being, would he still pull the trigger?

re: Doxa watches - any opinions?
Posted by weaveballs1 on 7/24/26 at 12:28 pm to Cosmo
I like them. The one you posted is one of the more toned-down versions I've seen. Normally when I see them it's one like this:
They're interesting, relatively reasonably priced tool watches that stand out to those that know watches or are in the diving community. I would wear one.

Was just there and I read enough negative stuff about this place on Facebook and other forums that we stayed away from it. Glad we did. Saw a video of them throwing a jaguar in the water so the cruise crowd could hold it and take pics, along with a "dolphin encounter". Unethical tourist trap that does not have a good rep with anyone in the area.

I was just in Roatan, this could've been me.
The fact that they sent this to the news with her name, a video, and the words "genital trauma" associated with it are wild. You couldn't torture this info out of me. Good for them for having like $12k in their gofundme to cover that sweet PJ ride, I guess.
A good rule of thumb while traveling is to avoid the cruise crowd and anything marketed towards them.
