Best thing about waffle house is a greasy sandwich of any kind on the Texas toast. The whole smothered, layered, covered, scattered, duece dropped, etc doesn’t do much when the hash browns are as dry as an old lady’s underparts. Gotta love the perpetual layer of dried syrup on every single counter and table top too.
That $12 tip is huge, I see a lot of $1-$3 tips dropped when I’m at waffle houses which unfortunately my kids love...

That week we did pick up a couple at either a club by the water or a casino, guy mostly bald and a hot blonde wife, we’re going to drop them off from the limo at their houseboat and the wife is pulling me and one friend out of the car with the husband saying to the most sober friend of the group “my wife can take a couple of you but can’t handle all of you”. Thankfully the one sorta sober friend kept me from going onto the houseboat. I blacked out that night but am told they had to struggle because I kept going “no it’s cool, they said it would be a cool party at their boat. The dude seems like a nice guy”.
Cuban bread, mojitos, cigars, card games in little bars. But you have to admit the clubs there get interesting after around 11pm or so.
Tell me you know that columbia restaurant I mentioned before though. It’s the first place I’d go if or when I get back to Tampa. (Probably second as a friend is close to Ali Marpet, of five year starting and 2nd rd draft pick out of Hobart game, and his family and I have a semi open invite to his crib and with advance notice to certain bucs facilities so probably hit the Marpet hookup first)

I see that I've been quoted even though I finally used this blocking function. Let me translate whatever was written as it's pretty easy to guess and even if I'm wrong who cares since said person hasn't cared to directly respond and participate like a normal human being anyways.
"TAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATS
I'm so important that whatever anyone else writes look at me and how special I am.

Re: All things Chinese CoronaVirus
Terrific article on the incompetence that has characterized this administration's response to COVID. This was a largely preventable event—one that previous administrations (both Republican and Democrat) were positioned to deal with more successfully.

Re: All things Chinese CoronaVirus
How are the % of positives doing in the states with spiking increases in cases?
How are hospitalization rates doing in those states?
We know that the worst hit states have declined tremendously both in new cases, % of positive tests, and in hospitalizations.
But spiking cases at high positive testing rates will inevitably lead to hospitalizations.
And if I understand correctly, hospitalizations, though lagging, are beginning to spike as well.
Apparently, a lot of those new hospitalizations are younger folks, so we'd expect higher survival rates, but also apparently the ages are creeping up as the secondary and tertiary spread reaches older family members and other contacts.
And that ultimately means a lot of deaths and damaged health of survivors.

That was the Florida Governor's claim re younger, which is why I used the word "Apparently". I'm not sure they've released actual up to date information with such demographics.

Lots of reporting on hospitalizations spiking in the hot areas.
The Miami Herald reported today that Florida is going to start reporting hospitalizations, under pressure to do so.
Texas has soared from under 1500 COVID hospitalizations statewide to over 6,000. that's found on the Texas site.

The Pandemic in the U.S. is Completely Out of Control
We just passed 130,000 American deaths from the pandemic. We are heading towards 200,000 dead Americans by the end of the year.

This is what happens when you elect as president a cognitively deficient, morally repugnant, and malignantly narcissistic piece of trash like Donald Trump. If you supported him, you share in the moral culpability for this horrifying tragedy. We told you Trump was unfit for office, and he has proven us right.
Lots of Americans are dying and being harmed. Houston is now beyond their ICU capacity. Other cities and states will be overwhelmed soon.
Oh ... and did I mention that Trump is a Putin-serving traitor? Yeah ... that’s on Trump’s supporters, too.
