Warning: Long read. Finally back from our two week trip to the US. It was incredibly surreal. Once in El Paso we rented a car and for the first week I was my mom's and aunt's chauffer. We drove down to Presidio and crossed over to my mom's hometown of Ojinaga. I'd been there before, but this...

That definitely bodes well, congrats! Is the timing because she is going abroad again? Looks like you have the impression it wasn't a hard "no," and just a "not right now." Correct? If that's the case looks like June will be a good time to exchange contacts and try again.

I'm aware it happens, and honestly, I don't know if a deal was made with his estate or if he was fine with it before he died. As far as I know he never did it while he was alive like Tom Clancy, who did it since like the mid 90s, or Jim Davis who's been doing it (did it? not sure if still alive)...

So I'm not currently reading anything, BUT hear me out. While here in Tucson I went to one of our buy/sell new and used books (and anything under the sun) stores. My brother wanted me to get one of The Expanse books for him and in browsing for that I found the Michael Crichton section. Decided...

I just noticed I can play it on Gamepass, so I'm gonna, also pausing Alan Wake II (still), the Castlevania games, Bloodstained, Blasphamus, The Void, etc.

Yes! The friend I watched it with is an ex-marine and HUGE gun... um... enthusiast and LOVES little details like that. During the big firefight with the police, when Val Kilmer hunches down to reload and comes back up to keep shooting He yelled, "Fuck yes! Fucking LOVE that!" LOL We did get to...

Most of us old farts have been on here for over 20 years. Recently you'll see several "waves," 10 or so still active members from 20+ years ago, another 10 from 10+ years ago and the rest from 5 or so years ago. Recently re-watched HEAT in 4K, great experience. My friend and I might do another...

Today I entered the U.S for the first time in 8 years. My mom was stressing out, because my ex asked me to bring her some things, among them a bottle of tequila, and my mom was EXTREMELY concerned about declaring it and paying the taxes on it. The funny thing was that I got stopped and checked...

Still not done with the Castlevania expansion in Vampire Survivors and they dropped another update. I took a look, another Adventure, achievements and unlockable characters. Love this game, gift that keeps on giving, best US$2.50 I've ever spent.

Oh for sure, Whenever I click on a video it takes about 5 seconds to open it as it is clearly fighting the ads. When I watch it on TV or my Xbox they load immediately, but of course with ads. Last night was particularly annoying, because there were several unskipable ads of 45 seconds. WTF?

I never said it was a bad shift lol. I don't think it "lowered" the tone, just changed it. For better or worse depends on the reader, I guess. These are things I've considered and been curious about. A friend of mine used to participate in the swinging scene decades ago and when I told him I...

Don't recall if I mentioned it before here or elsewhere so a quick comment: I will be going on a two week trip to northern Mexico and southwestern US. Here in Mexico our "spring break" is comprised of two weeks, Holy Week and Easter Week. It was a trip that was really stressing me out, but the...

We'll see. I much prefer this arrangement as it keeps a clear boundary. It is still a business first and foremost. Like, your barista, mechanic, hair stylist, etc. can be friendly with you, but it doesn't mean you're friends. That's how I see this, we have physical chemistry, we talk about...

Update on Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon 2. I finished the game only to find there's more game! and I'm not talking about extra endgame content or unlocks with replayability. I mean a new game opens up storywise. Gamplay is the same and you run through the same levels, same bosses, but with...

Watched "Adolescence" to see what the big fuss was about and because I love crime dramas. I have to say I wasn't impressed. It's a good show, but with the number of articles with clickbait headlines like "Teens are getting sucked into the manosphere! Here's what you need to know," or "After...

My thoughts exactly. The Daredevil hallway fight lives rent free in my head

Yes, I do get a better deal on price and if necessary paying later. So not bad

I think it's partly my fault as I noticed the shift after my comment about going to a pro, he said my life's a bore and to quit my whining cuz it was bringing him down. After that it went on to sex clubs and swinging soooo.... my bad I guess. Since I'm here though, a bit of an update. I think...

Today I had to refresh a video a couple of times due to an "error," but aside from that it's all working fine.

I initially dismissed the Thor movies and I'm glad I was wrong. My favorite MC movies have to be Iron Man, Captain America (first avenger), Captain America Winter Soldier, Thor I, Thor Ragnarok, Thor II. The Avengers team up movies are their own thing for me and the first is by far my favorite...
