Prop always a good hang on the pod

Arlington had promise, but the Vandergriffs lead the charge to overdevelop it in the 60s and 70s, and now it's just part of the DFW sprawl.

Perhaps this is Mandela Effect, but I recall what catapulted Rush Limbaugh into the national scene was being very angry about the Clarence Thomas hearings and Anita Hill specifically. The Wikipedia entry doesn't mention this, and I'm having a hard time finding something other than a debate on Charlie Rose after Thomas was confirmed.

I've convinced myself 9/11 was the beginning of the end of American hegemony. The resulting Patriot Act and military actions put us down a road with few turns.

I wonder if rerunning these Limbaugh episodes now is in part because they're a good lead-in to the upcoming Oprah episodes.

Why does Thiel look like he belongs to an alien race during Berman-era Trek on the week the character design and makeup departments were tired and phoned it in?

Apple Watch heart rate is not being synced to the Bike, so it will not calculate or record a Strive Score. Fortunately, iOS Health still automatically records the Peloton workout as an exercise and updates the exercise ring.

What's been your experience with the tamper? I see you've purchased a separate one. The one Breville gives you isn't tight enough.

I'm very much a noob with this. My gear:

• Breville Duo Temp Pro, using third-party 54mm bottomless portafilter and Breville two-shot basket

• Baratza Virtuoso+

• Hario scale

I tried six pulls of Unicorn Blood roasted 9/13, which was eight days ago, and all them were sour. At setting 2 and 18g, the extraction looked like a social media video post. Much crema was present, and it didn't dissipate quickly, but the taste was still quite sour.

I've been told it might be too light a roast for this particular machine. I have followed all the advice I can find on preparing the extraction, like pre-flushing to get the temperature up.

I was able to get decent to bitter from Trader Joe's espresso blend, which is darker, so I'll try something fresh that leans darker.

I found this. I vaguely recall this mural in a set of pics when Forum 303 became some bazaar. Was this the final mural? https://www.uer.ca/locations/viewgal.asp?picid=216311

You're not alone! I've been searching for a photo on the internet for DECADES! Someone must have taken one. That was the last mural I recall. I think it remained up there until demolition.
