    Fucking loud as hell hail storm for 15 minutes in central Arlington at 2am this morning.  Not the tiny pebbles either.  Quarter sized, up to damn golf ball sized hail.  Sounded like someone was taking a hammer to everything.

    What the fuck are you talking about

     

    Watch the video again and listen until the end

    With about .000001 second remaining, you hear the word  "streake-..."

     

    So, no.  Not really a "streaker" vid.

  3. Worked a few places in HS; one of the interesting tales was when I worked @ 15th Street Fisheries in Lauderdale (right over the Intracoastal for those who know the area).  I was a bus boy there & a friend was working around 8 minutes closer to my house @ Lauderdale Yacht Club making $ 1.00 more / hour.

    Of course I jumped ship & moved over to LYC.  Around 1 week after I am @ LYC, the dining room GM (who hadn't hired me) asked where I was working just prior.  I said "15th" & he freaks out, then calls the guy who owns 15th & apologizes for "poaching" one of his employees - it turns out he was taking a course i  n hospitality @ FIU in Miami from the Fisheries owner.

     

    & As to the "Canadians" moniker for people who are shitty tippers & have insane expectations, I can guarantee you that started in South Florida because we had mass #'s of Canadians who did the snowbird thing down there & every tale you've heard is true.  I think the Earlybird was invented exclusively for them.

  4. @Jerry Callo, I'm almost right there with you.

     

    My Mom got a text last week & it was some kind of unsolicited whatever where they were lightly trolling & it came from a (512) area code.

    She responded with something along the lines of "I don't know who you are or how you  got my phone #, but I am ____ years old & have lived here for ___ years & before that lived in ________ , Florida & I am a retired ___________ , etc. etc. [add more personal shit here that allows someone to build a damn near complete personal profile]".

    So damn maddening that she won't listen to me & then complains that I'm trying to run her life.  "I managed to make it this far in my life without you telling me what to do, so I'll keep on making my own way, thank you very much."

    & If I was to say something about this text message, she responds with "Get over it."

  5. For the Austin metro area, we do gutters.

    On the North / South zones, Georgetown down to San Marcos / New Braunfels (even San Antonio for the right total length).

    East to West, Bastrop to Marble Falls.

    $ 4.35 per linear ft. for the common 5" K style & $ 6.35 for a 6".

    Add 10 ft. each for a single story downspout, 20 ft. for a 2nd story downspout.  $ 10.00 ea. for a miter (inside / outside).

    Our most recent Shag gutter install was for DeftWill in Round Rock.  FYI, gutter costs are expected to go up AGAIN with this continued tariff thing (prices moved up 6% @ the 1st of May).

    It’s okay to cut her down—publicly. But, I’m willing to bet, given the right setting AND if no one would ever find out, some of ya’ll would hit it. The fatties need proper attention too. Nothing wrong with that.

    I don't need to hide behind anything - I'd go after it 100% sober.

  8. Still cannot get  logged in via Tapa.  No posting, no access to teh noodz board.

     

    I am able to use Tapa to login @ the Hokey Ass Message Board (H.A.M.B.... it's traditional hot rod talk), so I know it's not my version of Tapa that's the issue.
