Fun story, I just learned a couple months ago that the original plan was to build the new stadium in the shadow of Candlestick, but the city was being difficult.

I took my date to Red Lobster on senior prom night. That is probably the last time I've been to Red Lobster. Mrs Tif likes Chili's for some reason, but we haven't been to one in probably 5 or 6 years. I used to work near both an Olive Garden and an Outback, so those were common 'workplace celebratio...

Visuals weren't the weak link in Se1, hopefully the writing is tightened up.

I'm also gonna go out on a limb and say Harrison Butker's beliefs are probably a lot closer to the average of the NFL than to society in general. Very Jesusy bunch, football people.

I was gonna say, EPCOT is the first place I had Japanese food.You seem to be forgetting that one trip to EPCOT means a trip to Mexico, Norway, China, Japan, Germany, Italy, Canada, Morocco, France, and the UK.

Initially I thought this was a question about money, but now I get that you just don't trust your wife on a girls trip.

Roger Corman, Giant of Independent Filmmaking, Dies at 98
So many people you probably never even realized got their start on one of his sets. The movies weren't always what you'd call 'good' but he was certainly one of the most important figures in the history of the movie business.

The Captain Jack intro is pure perfection.
That movie punched so far above its weight. From an Oscar nominated pirate to an iconic score written sort of by accident. It's just a great ride.

The E-4s are based in Missouri or Nebraska or something, but they will occasionally make airshow appearances around the country. Which I always thought was odd.

So, way back in 2002 or something, I bought a lifetime subscription to Rolling Stone for like $100. I really enjoyed the magazine back then, obviously, and thought that was a great deal.
