    NBA 2016-2017 Season Thread

    Came back from the Clippers v. Thunder game, **** was awesome!!! I am going to miss the days when I can buy center court tickets, 10 seats away from floor seats for $180 each. Blegh. I had similar seats at Staples for the first OKC v. Clippers game this season and they were $110. The Blake...

    NBA 2016-2017 Season Thread

    there should be no regular season then. maybe a 82 game playoff bonanza. In most years the regular season would matter, but the league is so top heavy this year it only comes into play in terms of injury and playoff seeding. Have there been surprises at who the title contenders are? Maybe that...

    NBA 2016-2017 Season Thread

    I'm not much of a Kobe (the person) fan but I don't see how Laker problems this early in the season + early Spurs success equals a Spurs ring. Didn't Boston stink for most of last year, go something awful like 1-6 against the 4 best teams in the league and still hold a double digit lead in game...

    The Official Los Angeles Shopping + Dining Thread

    Really? It is rare for me to find something good to eat at a theme park. Technically it's not in the theme park but in that gift store/annex area next to the park. Mrs. Knott's Chicken Restaurant is the name, I think. I wouldn't go far out of my way, but I think it fits in with the...

    The Official Los Angeles Shopping + Dining Thread

    I used to go to Pita Kitchen and thought it was good for what it was - cheap and decent shawarma and such. I don't know much about Middle Eastern food, and please correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't saying that is the best Middle Eastern place akin to saying a good burger/hot dog joint is the...

    I have a jean...(The Ultimate Jean Thread For Beginners) - ask questions here.

    from the [raw] measurements on both models you mentioned, the waist were more than 3 inches bigger than tagged__ as compared to only 2" on the 007 raws. the denim used on those models are different, too__ precentage of shrinkage may also differ. btw, these is the current fit of the 007s__ TTS...

    I have a jean...(The Ultimate Jean Thread For Beginners) - ask questions here.

    Anyone have experience with raw PBJ XX-007? I'm a true waist 33.5. I read through the PBJ thread and most of the responses deal with the one-wash. BiG lists the sz. 31 RAW XX007 at 34 in the waist. Is there going to be minimal stretching after soaking/shrinkage? I saw someone put up a sz. 31 007...

    "Jacket required" - a relic of the past?

    Just a random aside: Ludobites sold out 3500 seats in less than one hour. This was with open table screwing up because of too much traffic. :\\ I'm pretty sure the food won't live up to the hype. edit: I didn't get any reserves x( ~~~~ So basically, in CA, I'll get looks if I go to any...

    For my dearest Kyle: dinner at the French Laundry

    +1. It's okay, but nothing special at all, IMO. It never comes to mind anymore when I'm thinking about where to plan to eat in Chicago. It's been a few years since I've been in Chicago. I've only had Achatz food when he was at Trio... which has to be at least 5 years ago now. My friend spoke...

    For my dearest Kyle: dinner at the French Laundry

    I went to FL a couple of years ago and it sucks to hear that the quality is not up to snuff. Service and food were both excellent in my experience. I think if you sent an email or called and complained (which I think is justified at $270/person) they would comp you another trip back and...

    SF Film/Cinema Thread

    Saw this when it came out and my recollection is vague. It was one of those well-acted and more than competently directed tearjerkers, right? I'd say that pretty much sums it up. Does anyone have the Criterion Chungking Express? Is the commentary or BBC excerpt worth it to replace my copy...

    SF Film/Cinema Thread

    Just caught up on the many, many pages of this thread. Just watched Failan and enjoyed it. Anyone seen it? Found it enjoyable. Choi Min Sik looks like an Asian Gary Oldman to me. I think I would have been happier if he takes the fall. I wonder if the US remake stalled out on this? I think...
