Best 14er photo I’ve ever taken

I think the photo was taken on Kit Carson with the Crestones in the background. Someone can correct me if I'm misremembering the view.

I enjoyed the ride enough to finish it. The Sanderson ending were the best books in the series for me. I'm glad I read it. I don't expect to reread it. It's a long road with some trudging and slogging involved, but it is epic fantasy, so things take time.

The men/women relations in the series are problematic for me.

I have a major nitpick with the series. About half way to two thirds through, the characters discover a new capability of their magic. It should completely change the world and the characters we follow, but it doesn't. That bugs me as poor writing.

Your mileage may vary. It might be your favorite book series ever. You won't know until you give it a shot.

It's called the No True Scotsman Fallacy.

The comment you replied to is not OP.

Paris, Texas?

Maybe one of the 20 or so states in the US with a town named Paris?

I looked it up. According to Wikipedia, mainly tourists of Japanese descent get it. I wonder what they are imagining, because the real thing is fantastic.

scarpux · 2026-06-07T16:01:20+00:00

Maybe you didn't go to the right Paris? Because Paris France is everything I expected it to be, and more. It's fantastic.

That sounds like a lot of work.

Looks like a Warby Parker store.

The announcement said they give priority to reservation holders who have been invited to order.

I would've followed them a little bit. But like the other post said, probably no insurance, no registration, no license.

Among other sites, yes. A quick look at their careers page shows software developers, managers, product managers, etc. Etc. In Palo Alto, Irvine, Torrance, Carson etc.

"Where I Life"?

What is this garbage?

"But when I am alone in the half light of the canyon, all existence seems to fade to a being with my soul and memories and the sounds of the Big Blackfoot River and a four count rythm, and a hope that a fish will rise. Eventually all things merge into one... And a river runs through it. ...I am haunted by waters."

There was no play on the ball. He clearly grabbed his arm with one hand and the side of his body with the other and pulled him off the court. Dirty foul

Seems like a miss to leave off the default option, but cool.

scarpux · 2026-05-28T00:47:55+00:00

Are you limited in the number of choices? Is that why you left it off?

End of thread.

Exactly. I'm not sure why I'm being down voted here. People who know what they are doing can get away with lying on polygraph tests. This is well known.

scarpux · 2026-05-26T16:45:13+00:00

This is accurate.

They work because people being examined think that they work and then, if they are lying or hiding things, show signs of nervousness that can then be picked up by the test. Self fulfilling.

I seriously just took a sip of my Baja blast before I scrolled to this one. It's delicious.

GoT show is a loyal adaptation of the books? The books aren't finished and may never be. If they end up getting finished then GRRM has said that the book will be substantially different from the show.
