A new taco place opened in my neighborhood, the food is awesome and it's kinda taking off. I hope they stay, but at some point they'll have to expand

While golfing we saw this Mexican place across the street from the course. Old ass sign, faded paint, tiny parking lot. It was either going to be amazing or we were going to get stabbed.

It was amazing. I was not stabbed.

I'm in Quito, Ecuador with a group from MSU, UNC, and Va Tech until the end of July. Been here just over a week and it's great. Climbing Cotopaxi (2nd highest mountain in the country) this weekend, I'll post a pic of us with my MSU flag.

Somewhat related story: one of the kids from Va Tech asked if I was a big MSU basketball fan and I obviously started raving about the program. He started telling me how he remembers watching Mateen and Mo Pete in 2000 and that he's been an avid MSU basketball fan his whole life. Keep in mind we were 6 years old at the time and this kid lived in Virginia. God I love our program Seriously, how did tom cruise get famous? 1833121890

Nope, not soup. Not even soup-like. There are many spanish soup-like dishes that may contain similar ingredients, but ceviche aint fucking soup. FUCK - now I want ceviche! The best I ever had was at the kiosks along the beach in Puerto Rico - fresh seafood, crazy people, awesome environment, sunset, beach, fat bottomed girls, booze, . . .perfect.

People were afraid of him after he kept jumping on their furniture and kept giving him more money in hopes he would go away.

i'm pretty sure ceviche is any kind of light fish that has been "cooked", at room temperature, by an acid marinade made of lime juice.

serious answer: even though tom cruise acts like tom cruise in all of his movies, he gets to be in some good stuff. some of my favs are valkyrie, vanilla sky, tropic thunder, war of the worlds, minority report, s few good men, eyes wide shut, rain man... there are probably a couple i'm forgetting.

I haven't seen Valkyrie, I think I can watch it on Amazon Prime or Netflix, worth the couple of hours? What did you think of that last movie he did, where it was a futuristic war time groundhogs day? That movie wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.

i liked it. it won't win any academy awards but it was entertaining just like many cruise movies. i thought valkyrie was great. it helps that i'm a wwII fan and i've read about that attempted coup.

Didn't say he was a bad actor, just that ever early movie of his I watch isn't standing the test of time. Where people just flat out dumber back then and would watch anything?

maybe it's my age because I grew up when his early movies were popular and before he was a huge star.. (or weird.. at least to the general public) - but Risky Business was good, All The Right Movies, Top Gun, obviously.. all solid flicks that I'll watch some of when they're on unedited.

Valkyrie was cool, but like you I'm a WWII fan and have read a fair amount about the coup, so I may have biases.

What was funny was the reaction that a lot on the interwebs had to Cruise in that movie. I remember the big complaint that had many people up in arms was that he spoke with his regular American accent so it wasn't authentic. But they were cool with the authenticity Kenneth Branagh and others.....I must have missed that day in history class, but judging by the internet, apparently Germans were running around speaking English with a British accent in 1944.
