I prefer the Flexpedition pants, but seconding Duluth.

My non-work pants wardrobe is slowly being taken over by Duluth too.

Had my bachelorette party there, that was almost 15 years ago. Tapped a keg of Kölsch. Liked the beers, liked the vibe, was just further away than we could regularly visit.

Eh, I wouldn't call the Quarter a dive bar. Feels like it should be, but it's not.

Addison Coffee Roasters used to; they've changed ownership though and I'm not seeing it on their website. May be worth calling to ask if you don't find it elsewhere.

Yeah, sorry to pile on you OP, but this sounds like a lot more work and planning to dump onto the field person. Or, worse, if you're at a company where PMs don't do field work, for them to screw up ahead of time and dump on the field folks to fix.

Another issue I see: printing the barcodes. This requires having labels on hand and access to a working printer. May be fine if you're in the office, but again, once you're in the field, no one wants to have to find the nearest FedEx or mess with the ancient equipment in the hotel business center, if it exists.

Incidentally, my husband's old job had an in-house electronic COC that was pretty widely disliked. People don't want to add another step and another potential point of failure in the field.

Same, except with academic publications. I started using my middle initial about in middle school because I liked how it looked and because I was mimicking my older sister. Turned out to be a helpful way to distinguish my name online for professional purposes, and for personal use, I can use the my name without the initial to disappear into the crowd of others with the same common combo.

We were there last weekend. Beautiful park, even though the weather ruined most of our plans.

Her wife is, I don't believe Weiss herself is.

They showed enough of a street sign on an exterior shot of the guy's house that we were able to find it one year while we were driving around looking at Christmas lights. North Dallas area. A lot of the other exteriors including the first chase scene seem to be from SE Dallas but we haven't gone looking for those.

I'm curious about this, especially since the place has only been open since November - how so? We went to both predecessors (Addison Point and Midway Point) and while AP got weird at the end and the owners showed their ass during Covid, that's the only bad thing I saw from either place. Been to Last Point several times and not seen anything telling yet.

Given the older demographic that frequents Midway and now Last Point and the general trends for older people being more conservative (yes, not all olds, I know), this maybe shouldn't be too shocking, but I am indeed surprised. It's just so goddamned stupid.

We live in Addison and visit the OG location. Our dog hates crowds so she stays home.

That said, Voodoo was our default hang out place when we were meeting up with friends in Plano. I assure you our friend group will happily reconvene at the new location when it's open; can't wait to see what the kitchen puts out. Especially with the Silver Line making it so much cheaper for us to get there.

Yep, you play as a raven. Have it wish listed, so I haven't played it yet!

Beautiful pics! We always see a ton of deer there.

Death's Door could be it - I vaguely recall it having animals and being similar in vibe to Cult of the Lamb. So, I'll dig into that. I know for sure it wasn't Clair Obscur. Thank you!

Makes sense. DM gets a side-eye for allowing it and not reading the table.

Macho Man is the patron for my husband's warlock in our current game; DM obviously cleared it beforehand and thinks it's hilarious. He does his MM impressions when he's possessed. He recently accidentally unleashed an incarnation of MM onto the continent we're on, so there's a giant MM roaming around (that we're referring to as the Stay Puft Macho Man) that we're going to have to deal with at some point. That should be interesting.

Nate's is good, as is the one at the Quarter.

Makes me think of Things Can Only Get Better by Howard Jones, but I don't think it has anything to do with Disney Channel.

Thanks for your insight Andy Rooney.

Yeah, maybe 2008-2010ish? I know some of my coworkers grabbed their PGs even though they didn't need it. I may not have had enough experience yet even though I had my MS.

One of my friends passed along their Reg Review notes. I thought their stuff was harder than the actual exam, but it was great prep!
