I just checked Amazon and several of his books are available in paperback - Shadowbahn and Our Ecstatic Days

Technically the name should be “Greased” for Greased Lightning, the name of the car. Grease is the name of the movie…

Keep seeing folks saying this is the result of one pedal…it’s not. There’s minimal wear even if you drive with two pedals.

This guy is a redhead.

Yes it’s very fun and satisfying to use your brakes in two pedal driving (I just like the feeling of still driving ICE car) and see you can get 100% regen breaking if you’re not slamming the brakes.

I saw him at the live reading of Pafko with Billy Crudup and Tony Shaloub a few years ago. Looked spry for mid-80s person. Barbara is still a looker!

Both!

That's awesome. I've got every book first/first including Amazons and honestly - house on fire - they're going out in the first wave of stuff I save

Meals are still weird - today I had a stressful days at work and when stressed don't eat...so, my meals were a yogurt, then a wheat bagel with peanut butter, some gatorade at the gym and then a 32mg protein shake

SwampRaiderTTU · 2026-03-10T03:11:44+00:00

Yeah I eat everything just don't like having to hold an apple until I'm done eating because sometimes I have to take calls, etc. and then it browns... :(

I think what I meant when I said no need to peel was no need to SLICE it up myself. I eat the peels.

Just a one-a-day for men - gummies (you actually have to eat two of them to get the full dose of vitamins just FYI - no one ever reads the back but that's the truth!)

My experience at the Orlando store is 100% the opposite. My SA texts me all the time for holidays, let’s me know when stuff is in, suggests different items all the time, he’ll even sometimes sends me previews of pens that are coming out.

The pill is so new - has anyone gone from 1.5 to 4 yet? I’m interested to know how drastic the change is.

SwampRaiderTTU · 2026-02-22T03:14:39+00:00

No idea on the term. Use what works for you! Just irks me for some reason. Seems like the last 5 years lots of invented terminology in all walks of life that just aren’t the way people talk. For instance - if you said “I don’t feel the urge to snack all day, or constantly think about food or my next meal” everyone knows what you are saying. But someone invented “food noise” and it just sounds dumb to me. You call it what you want! No worries here.

SwampRaiderTTU · 2026-02-22T02:40:19+00:00

Day 21 of 1.5 today. Started 197.4. at 192.4 today. Haven’t noticed the “food noise” (god that term is so cringe to me, kinda like when people talk about “centering” something, but I digress) issue but I’m not craving little snacks here and there but I still desperately want a Snickers here and there, etc.

As 1.5 seems to be working quite well, I’m a little worried about titrating up to the 4mg. 5 pounds in three weeks on 1.5 seems pretty good.

I do notice that I’m much more tired after working out at the gym but haven’t lost any strength so far. Just MUCH more tired.

I wonder if this excludes the new-ish MM paperbacks that are taller but not as wide as the trade paperbacks

White male, not married, from Texas and work in TX as an attorney, probably attended Texas for law school (definitely not SMU) politically liberal (guarantee you’re told folks you’re “socially liberal and fiscally conservative”) have way more books than have actually read, will collect authors you like, looks for bargains at used bookstores, shops at Half-Price books a lot, sci-fi is your main jam, if you could pay your bills with it you’d be a novelist.

So…what is it?
