  1. Some of my favorites: 1. Braveheart. 2. Pulp Fiction. Quenton knows how to pick good songs. 3. Conan the Barbarian (don't drive to this, especially in rush hour with a battle axe!) 4. I also like the Star Trek soundtracks, especially Star Trek 2 and 3 5. GOTG 6. Master and Commander on the far side of the world.
  2. If bullshit could fly, Trump's Mar-A-Lago would be an airport!
  3. Nah, these days if they have an R behind their name, they are trash. The GOP is a cult at this point. Haley was just there to give the appearance of choice in the GOP, but Trump had it locked and the fix was in from day one. Biden is definitely a disappointment, especially on both Israel (we need to stop arming and enabling Netan-Yahoo) and the Border mess (I am for LEGAL immigration and immigration reform, but the border is out of control), and he's a geezer that can keel over at any minute, but he has my vote if it keeps Trump out of the Oval Office. Haley would not have changed that.
  4. Tomorrow, I go to Dresden, Germany.
  5. There is a LOT of walking and everything is cobblestone, so if he has sensitive feet like me, he needs good shoes.
  6. Hi All. Today, I got to do a small tour of Prague. Too much to see in just a few short hours of course, and these pics don't do the place justice, but I saw a castle!
  7. Personally, I shy away from referbs. I'm not to keen on HP and for the Optiplex, Dell generally has weak power supplies, making upgrading your video card a challenge. I would say just save your money up and get a rig you really want instead of compromising.
  8. No pictures yet, but I landed in Prague today!
  9. Don't forget your glow-in-the-dark stars to stick to your ceiling, kitty pictures on the wall, and your velvet Elvis painting!
  10. If the military and law enforcement have manditory retirement ages, so too should Congress, SCOTUS, and POTUS!
  11. Not a bad set up for $800.00. The only negative I see is it has DDR4 instead of DDR5 RAM, but most people won't see the difference, and maxing out at 128GB RAM is cool. Looks like the video card is way better than the one I posted.
  12. https://www.cnn.com/2024/02/28/politics/mitch-mcconnell-stepping-down-leadership-senate-gop/index.html About fucking time, but not soon enough! I wonder what psychopath republican will replace him, though. I am guessing it will be Thune.
  13. Yeah, that PC probably is more than you need, but you can certainly game on it if you needed to. It would be super fast for just day to day stuff, with the M.2 drive, and I5 Processor, alone. If all you are doing is grading papers, word processing, and web browsing, you could go with something less expensive like this one and still be decently future proof: https://www.ibuypower.com/store/rdy-element-mr-001 *ASROCK motherboards are made by ASUS, which is a good brand.
  14. If I were looking, I'd get this one. https://www.ibuypower.com/store/rdy-trace-7mp-005
  15. At my job we had a custom PC built for VR purposes, and we used: https://www.ibuypower.com/.
  16. No accounting for taste but I respectfully disagree!
  17. I have a 2005 Dell that refuses to die! I never use it anymore, but I zoomed on it the last time I was at a Nightly Zoom party.
  18. Yeah I would love to go to a pub in London. I would love to get a real IPA in the UK LOL! I love to drink the Americanized West Coast IPAs, but would like to sample a real one.
  19. The Wire is waaaayyy overrated. Sopranos, Sons of Anarchy, Dexter, Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul, Boardwalk Empire, and Rome are just a few examples of shows that totally blow it out of the water.
  20. Hi all! I posted in the Flying thread and and this inspired me to create this one.I am travelling and will be on a 19 hour layover in Heathrow Airport London March 9-10, at Aerotel near Terminal 3. I am looking to do something for a few hours while there, and was wondering if anyone has helpful suggestions on what to see. Destiny was kind enough to suggest taking the Elizabeth line Tube to central London. I was wondering for those who are in the know about London (this is my first time there), especially our UK Nightly members, if there is a good place to go for some brief site seeing and a good place for dinner. Hell, maybe even meet up with a nighly member there, if feasible! Please give me some recommendations!
