  1. I think Chris Shepherd will do fine with all of the following he has. I pretty much don't ever go to any his restaurants other than Hay Merchant because they are all so damn expensive. Hell, even Hay Merchant is now charging $24 for a muffaletta and $18 for a philly cheese steak - it's getting ridiculous. I swear Chris Shepherd could open a hotdog stand and charge $12 for a hotdog ($16 with chili) and people would be lined up.
  2. COVID caused an additional backlog. Supposedly they are in the process of hiring additional help with these cases.
  3. Top tier in no particular order: Astral Great Heights Holler Equal Parts True Anomaly Local Group St. Arnold City Orchard - very good cider 2nd tier: Brash - I like what they do, but most of their beer are just too...brash Eureka Heights - A couple of very good beers and usually have a good rotation, but most of their beers aren't for me 8th Wonder - great place to hang out but beers are average Buffalo Bayou - great place to hang out but beers mostly suck Urban South Under The Radar New Magnolia Spindletap WTF are these guys doing? Don't even bother drinking here: Walking Stick - never had a good beer there Platypus Brewing - average beer at best I don't get outside the loop often and haven't visited many of the Greater Houston breweries: B-52 Brewing - visit if you are ever in the Conroe area. Nice spot and great beer No Label - not a bad place to visit if you are in the Katy area Leaving Karbach off the list because they are owned by InBev.
  4. Yeah, that dive was was on Holcombe. It reopened on Bissonet in 2008. Wasn't the same
  5. Rice Village never has been not safe. The original Galant Knight wasn't in the village. It was a little shack on Holcombe and closed 2006.
  6. Google some tennis elbow exercises. The pain might linger for a couple of months. Don't use a compression sleeve when sleeping. Wear this
  7. The 5th ward could eventually become more like the 3rd ward over the years. The 3rd ward residents are trying to keep gentrification to a minimum, but Midtown will eventually expand to the 3rd ward.

    TexMex

    An expensive Mexican restaurant on N. Main sounds like a bad idea. There are too many cheap places with quality food to eat in that area. Cantina Barba is solid.

  10. His district is so gerrymandered the blue votes don't make a difference. Kingwood/Humble is keeping him in office.
  11. Was he Slow Donnie?
  12. Yeah more likely peaked
  13. I'm not saying it's good. I'm saying the US generally is a month behind Europe. The UK has plateaued.
  14. Nothing entices me more to buy a Toyota than watching a paralympic swimmer. Even though I saw the car about 5 seconds throughout the commercial and know nothing about the car.
  15. If you believe in European models, yes. This wave will plateau in a month.
  16. Any recommendation for a living room with high ceilings? My soundbar has a seating to increase the dialogue with the center channel, but it's still hard to hear conversations. It's like it just gets lost in the air.
  17. I spent a week in Boston this spring and was talking with a few guys at the bar and they asked me who the Astros rival is. Is it the Rangers, they asked? I really couldn't answer the question. I explained that the Astros are pretty new to the AL and Bud Selig tried to force an Astros/Rangers rivalry, but the Ranger have been pretty much irreverent other than a couple of years.. The last Astros rivalry I remember were the Cardinals and Braves to an extent. They all chimed in and said we like the Astros. They cheated, but so did we. Fuck the Yankees.

    Colombia

    Miraflores is a great area
  19. I have a friend based in Harris county and does free consultations. PM me if you want details.
  20. #2 blade on the top and #1 blade on the sides. Or just go with a #1 or 1 1/2 on the entire head.
  21. I had a pretty good brunch at '93 Til. Didn't enjoy the $10 mimosa

    Houston BBQ

    I haven't heard much about Piper’s BBQ & Beer and might check it out this weekend. Located on Shepherd and 24th.
  23. I git a letter it was going up to $550. It's already $550
  24. Actually no, firewalls do not prevent this kind of attack. I won't comment much about your wall comment other than it's the same as a company firewall. Sure, a firewall (wall) will help keep your infrastructure (border) safe to an extent, but there is a hell of a lot more investment and security needed to keep your organization safe.
