    Man climbs down 19 floors of building to escape fire.  And then about 1:10 into the video, appears ready to jump off 15' high scaffolding into police officers arms.  Cops be like "NO! NO! NO! - walk that way and climb down!"

    Sure, climb down almost 200 feet and then just decide "screw it, I'mma risk serious injury jumping the last 15 feet".

     

    Gut, I smiled just barely at your vid.  Did not lol.

    https://abcnews.go.com/US/shock-man-beaten-death-philly-mob-allegedly-steal/story?id=64291023

    Guy steals a car with a couple's 3 children inside.  Father catches up when traffic holds the thief up.  Thief assaults the dad, then ends-up getting beaten to death by an angry mob.

    Not clear if the dad was involved or participated, but let's assume he is:

    1) Let's not debate charges - would you want to see that father in jail or not, and if so for how long?

    2)  What about the mob?  You know who was fighting, but you don't know which punch/kick proved fatal nor do you know who did it.  Are they all guilty of murder?  How much jail time should they get?

     

    I wouldn't charge anyone. Fuck that guy, don't steal people's shit.

    I have two questions.  First, how does a "farm to plate" place in Indiana serve Kobe beef?  I'm not sure of the rules for the claim, but I was unaware of any slant-eyed cows being raised in the US.  I'm being facetious - looks like a great meal.

    Second, and I know this is rude but how much did you pay?  I had Kobe beef [appetizer] at Nobu about 10 years ago, and I would guess it was probably $200 per pound. Can't say I remember it being any better than prime aged angus I've had at top steakhouses (maybe $40 per pound, @ $40 prepared for a 5oz filet).  IMO, if you can get aged prime/choice angus, then you pretty much can cook a steak at home that rivals anything from a top restaurant....for $10.

    1 - Kobe raised anywhere else beside Kobe is Wagyu.  Like Champagne and sparkling wine, bourbon and whiskey, etc.

    2 - It was a 5 oz. 100% Wagyu, $85.  They also had F1 (I believe was the term) hybrid that was 50/50 w/ angus and F2 that was 75/20.  Not sure of their market price.

    It was very good.  Everything was very good.  It was worth the premium just to say I had it.  They have a $25 Wagyu burger that I may try the next time, or one of the hybrids.

  • I don't know where to put this post, so putting it here.

    Had Wagyu beef (Kobe) tonight for the first time.  Wife and I went to a "farm to plate" restaurant in Indiana.  Un-freaking-believable.  Everything that we ate was incredible.

    TLDR

    I would be intrigued to see where Serena at her peak would be on the men's tour.  Guessing near 500-800?

  • Paul will inevitably become a Laker, in my opinion, as will Melo.  Hot Taek

  • It depends.  I hate change just because "yay change."  Tech is a perfect example of this, and Tapatalk is a perfecter example of this.  "Let's make a new update, just to be flashy!"  A lot of times when this happens, the old way was 100% fine.
