Not sure when you were there, but back in the 80s international tuition was $16/hour. The entire state of Texas was plum silly with said international talent.

Let’s not let all this talk about foreign chicks distract us from the job Cristian Javier did tonight. OutSTANDing, as chuck would say.

Late 80s, early 90s. The only muslim women were from turkey and indonesia. Before i started the classes i had no idea that Indonesia was majority muslim. Still remember one little woman who was not even close to 5 foot tall from Indonesia who decided to go by the name, ā€œMontana.ā€
The Arab kids were all male. I don’t think i ever met an arabic woman there.

And quite a few running around houston.

His arm still looked live, he just couldn’t command anything tonight. But I agree…I don’t know that he’s a lost cause just yet.

I’ve spent a fair amount of time in Indonesia, but later in life as a married man, so I couldn’t say about the women. But the food was not appetizing at all.

My wife is aussie and many of her friends have been expats in Indonesia for exxon. No one has nice things to say about the food or Jakarta in general. Better than Lagos?

I dont know how diiferent the food is from indonesian, but i really like Malaysian food. Now that i think of it, I’ve never heard of an indonesian restaurant.

Huh. Never had Indonesian food, but I’m surprised that it’s mediocre.

Most of my time in Indonesia was in Sumatra, so I don’t know if that’s it, but I didn’t care for the food in Kalimantan or Jakarta either. I’ve spent some time in Kuala Lumpur, which is a really cool city, but the food was…meh. I got spoiled in Thailand, I guess.

Yeah, I was surprised too, as I like most everything else from SE Asia. Just wasn’t for me. Everyone’s mileage varies though, I guess.

Lots of rust, and I believe in the pitching brain trust.

Years ago I was in NYC vistiing friends, and they said ā€œwe’ll take yall to our favorite place around hereā€ and it was Burmese hole in the wall. Had never thought of Burma as a cuisine or anything of the sort. It turned out to be one of the best meals of my life.

When we were first dating i went to a lot of thai restaurants with her in houston and she would always say that the thai food is better in Australia. I thought this had to be bullshit, but sure enough every thai place I’ve been to in australia has been great. My guess is the competition, thai food is very popular in Melbourne and if it’s not good, it won’t last. Street to Kitchen in Houston’s Eado is good, but spendy and self-important. The good enough thai places i can walk to get my business.

Jesus fucking Christ, I decided to turn on the Os Giants game since the Astros are done and I just heard one of the Apple TV dipshits say that Nick Kurtz will DEFINITELY have another 4 homer game in his career. Nevermind that NOBODY has ever had 2 in their career.
