  1. New students signed up for next year...I swear to god...
  2. I was just invited to my first cat birthday party. The lady is like 45. Like, do I bring a gift?
  3. https://www.purgatory.ski/mountain/purgatory-mountain/trail-maps/ I ski mainly on the Legends Lift (far right) runs. They are super fast, steep, and two or three are (usually) groomed nightly. There is a small black run right before the Legends lift that isn't even named. It is wicked steep and super short so you can pretty much get as much speed as you can handle. My favorite run is Upper and Lower Hades off the main lift. It is groomed daily and it is where all the races are and is probably the longest/ steepest run. I love Purg, but I do miss the longer runs at the larger ski resorts. That is a shame about your favorite run. My favorite run at Copper is called Bouncer and they did the same thing...one year they stopped grooming it and the next it was the terrain park. That is awesome! My boys are close to transitioning to do blues and I am so excited to take them! I wish they had night skiing at Purg though. But when I did night skiing at Keystone, I struggled on black slopes bacause I couldn't judge the steepness. Maybe I needed different lenses.
  4. Just drink out of glass bottle using a straw and you should be fine during,
  5. Like, if I was a bachelor...Christmas lights year round...everywhere. Not like the LED light strips with app...I mean old school Christmas lights that flash and have midi versions of Christmas songs.
  6. That is awesome. If I were to redesign schools, I would have K-6 (divided into K-3 and 4-6), 7-9, and 9-12.
  7. Looks like HBO renewed it Issas vision. As I mentioned, I loved the direction Issa took. Hopefully she will be given a bigger budget and can properly flesh out the story a bit more. Odds on Matt or Woody returning?
  8. Watch S3. It is legit really good. From what you have said, I think you would like it. It is interesting you said that about S2, because Nic said it was supposed to be occulty and have more interesting dynamics between the detectives, but HBO wanted a script so he didn't have time to flesh out what he needed. I agree with you about the return to S1 form. I thought it did a nice job. But I agree with Odine that nothing really happened and then everything was rushed. I think the last episode could have actually been 2-3 episodes on its own. You say the tongue, but I assumed Hank put it there so the detectives would automatically assume the same person was connected with both crimes and taking focus off the mine. But you say it is a return to form, I know I just said I agreed and they did a nice job, but I am kind of changing my mind. They pushed it too much--wtf is the connection to the spiral and what is the connection to Twist and Shout?
  9. I agree about watching Nic's meltdown. Did he forget he also wrote S2? I liked the premose and setting more than S3, but S3 had better writing and conclusion. Both had excellent acting. So to me they are pretty equivalent. I don't think S2 is as bad as most people think, but it's bad when you have to look up episodes to figure out what you just watched.
  10. Season 1 is one of my favorite shows ever. I have seen it probably a dozen times. I actually rewatched it twice while watching this season. I was so pumped for this show. Jodie Foster is one of my favorite actresses of all time and I love love love the setting. As far as this season, I thought it was okay. It seems like we are in pretty much agreement. Pros: I thought the acting was great across the board. I love Jodie Foster and it was also nice seeing Sol Star (John Hawkes) from Deadwood--another one of my favorite shows ever. I loved the setting and mood. I thought the old woman that dated Travis was super fun. Great cinematography. I was skeptical of Kali Reis but I thought she was amazing! I thought the premise was great! Cons: The plot. I thought it was an interesting premise and E 1 and 2 were both fairly strong. But E3-5 nothing happened. I hated the ending. They stumble on a secret lab and somehow can look at the paperwork just laying around and from that figured out what was going on? You would think that by prosecuting the killers they would blow the lid off the whole mine operation. Now it will still be hidden. I am 100% fine with non-closure. I don't think every little thing has to be tied up in a nice little box at the end. However, there were too many things that were brought up that didn't advance the plot...Liz's Tinder (why lie and say it was ff--we got that she slept around already), all of the futile connections to S1 (why repeat that spiral--what connection did Clark have to it)? What did Kayla throw our Peter--when he is working a mass murder?? A killer is on the loose in a small town and you are going after the only person that is actually doing detective work? I get she doesn't like his and Danvers relationship--but now is the time you are picking to throw him out?Why did those townspeople go crazy in the hospital? It's not like he was abusive or manipulative. Honestly, I think it would have been better if they just called it Night Country and didn't try to shoehorn in True Detective. Finally, my biggest irk was the whole Twist and Shout thing. I watch with subtitles and that song was played in most of the episodes. Anyhow--my prediction for the entire show was the town was having mass hallucinations due to the mine's pollution. The scientists discovered this and were going to expose the mine.
  11. Your a regular Sherlock Holmes. Tonight is the only Friday I can do for a few weeks.
  12. I have said this 100 billion times...but mean girl behavior is, without a doubt my least favorite behavior to deal with and the hardest. And I have dealt with drugs, weapons, gangs, etc. There are three things I hate about my job: 1. Dealing with child abuse 2. HR decisions that you can't share the whole story and the other person is lying/ making shit up about why they were non-renewed/ fired. 3. Mean girls--because usually the queen bee's mom is a queen bee mean girl herself. 3b...is when a queen bee mean girl is PTO president or some position like that.
  13. I am getting stressed reading this. Youth sports is about the love of the game, building community, positive interactions... Youth sports is now a cesspool. I hope to god my boys have no interest in team sports. We have a youth club team here, but you have to give up your entire weekend for months on end to travel. Even high school games are all 1-3 hour commutes. There is a rec league here, but its all Team Hobbes plays Team Destiny and one team wears the blue side of the jerseys and the other team wears the yellow side.
  14. No grooming at all? That is insane! I wouldn't even go. What about the beginners area or like the ski run that everyone funnels into or the service roads runs? I don't even know how that is even close to being safe.
