  1. Anything in the house that unnecessarily makes noise. The parents have a grandfather clock and a cuckoo clock that compete with each other for your attention every hour. They have a landline phone that robotically announces the name of the caller when the phone rings in an annoying robotic voice. This is making me surly today because I was at their house yesterday to install their Ring doorbell so they can have something else to make noise, and we had a perfect symphony of Westminster chimes, cuckoos, WIRELESS CALLER, and the ring doorbell while I was making sure it worked.
  2. The championship parade dynamic is a weird one. Shit gets out of hand at these things. I skipped school to go to the Cowboys parade in 93 and that was an eye opener. It starts out with some harmless shenanigans, and the next thing you know there are trash cans getting thrown through storefront windows and cars getting lit on fire. This is in no way a defense of what happened in KC, but sports celebrations bring out the worst in people, on what should be a happy day.

  4. Last time I had Pizza Inn was in Texarkana circa 2008. Buffet. My memory tells me it was pretty good. I had no idea they still existed. If I saw one on the road I would stop.

    Fell asleep on the couch and went back to the bedroom when I temporarily arose from my bourbon-induced nap.

  7. Are you flying or driving? Because if you’re driving it isn’t quick.
  8. There has to be somebody putting out a decent CFS or cheese enchilada plate.

    The Lego is certainly painful to step on, but the full on model car will fuck your ankle up in a more painful way. We don’t have kids, we were babysitting. I stumbled over that thing at 2:00 am and it sucked.

    It was a hot wheels car. I’m mildly sore in the shoulder, hip, and knee, and the ankle is fucked. Iwent down hard.

    Severely sprained ankle. I would love to tell you that it was because I was going hard in the paint grabbing a rebound in traffic, but it’s actually because we kept my sister’s kids for a night, one of them left a toy out, and I stepped on it trying to get to bed in the middle of the night with the lights out.
  13. Thank you for taking one (or two, three, four or five) for the team.

  16. They’re lift, clean, and place so I’m guessing there have been some weather issues.
  17. Our maid comes every other week, charges $150, does a decent enough job cleaning the house and does the laundry. There’s only two of us, so if you have a bunch of rugrats running around your laundry burden might be too much for her, but she shows up after she drops her kids off at school and leaves in time to pick them up. She generally gets it done in that timeframe, occasionally we have to take the last load out of the dryer.

  19. I pegged the speedometer on an 87 Mustang GT. I think 135 was what it maxed out at, but that was a few bourbons ago. That car wasn’t exactly smooth north of 100. Also made it from Austin (MLK/35) to downtown Dallas (Woodall Rogers exit) in just under 2 hours my freshmen year in a 1987 Supra. Since my days of youthful stupidity ended, I think the fastest I’ve gone was about 110 in the wife’s G37 on a trip to Ruidoso. That was by accident. Desolate west Texas highways can lull you into a bit of a trancelike state. Snapped out of it when she asked me how fast I was going. I told her 90. Sorry babe, it just got away from me a little bit there. Won’t happen again.
