  1. https://hallhall.com/property-for-sale/colorado/seven-lakes-ranch/a091Y000023ozCB/ Greg Norman’s little shack in the woods is available.
  2. Came here for this. I’ve broke, bruised, or sprained all sorts of toes and fingers. Had lower back bulging disks and spasms that caused. 5th metatarsal and crack in the growth plate of the cuboid, wins/loses the pain scale going away.
  3. All this. Scott DiseaseEX stopped the spread of my multiple TARR spots. Lots of bagging mows when it looked like it was flaring up. Lots of curative dosage. Several preventative dosages on rest of lawn. Several peat moss applications in the worst affected areas. Unfortunately, I think I finally got it under control when I went to strictly disease ex application over various other fungicides in late fall outside of growing season. Last of my open soil areas finally grew and closed up this May If you see any lime green leaf areas with brown roots or stolons in other areas of your yard hit that shit quick. I did a preventative diseaseex application earlier this spring and won’t use any sprayer propiconazole this summer unless the diseaseEx doesn’t keep the nonTARR fungus under control.
  4. Any advice on pickling okra? Pretty idiot proof, yes? I’ve canned other crap before, but my pickling experience is zero. My uncle advised find a recipe online. Follow it. Ensure sterile jars. Increase mustard, fennel, and spice (pepper flakes, hot sauce, or jalapeños and habaneros themselves)if going for “Texas” flavor. Also mentioned in his bachelor days he’d just add boiled vinegar and spice to old jars, and keep a rolling pickled okra mason jar in fridge all summer/fall. Don’t think that’s going to work for the wife and kids.
  5. As a knot nerd I’ve got an interest in this. Was the “tied handle” even a slip knot? A bowline, an overhand knot, taut-line hitch, or actual noose? I was not involved in, but briefly reviewed an HR incident at a chem plant where a deck operator left a bowline tied in paracord on the armrest of a chair that happened to belong to a black control room operator. Personal attorneys were called, yada yada just a dude fidgeting with cordage while his buddy was taking 5. I’ve also seen similar instances in the news where a 13 turn noose is tied in 3/4 hemp rope and left at a residence or shoved into a personal locker or whatever. I would hope in 2020 we can openly discuss the difference before attorneys, HR, and press releases are issued, but apparently not.
  6. I’d posit it isn’t the current athletes’ song and former student athletes and current athletic staff and coaches have no more say than current and former students. It is The University’s song. Not just athletes. Not athletics. Not just Alumni. Not just current students. Put the institution, The University, in the middle ring. Our Alma Mater. I’m absolutely trying to put myself in the shoes of a current black student athlete, but you start with a false premise in saying TEOT belongs to them first or affects them more.
  7. You wanna talk about hotels? Wanna win some ballgames?
  8. Don’t forget Sul Ross out in Alpine. Texas State system going to be down to 1 school.
  9. No limit, just mutually ASSured destruction.
  10. Are deaths countable / quantifiable? Yes. Fewer. Less suffering. Fewer deaths. Fewer masks. Less dumb-assery. Etc. etc.
  11. “Talking bout girls talking bout trucks.” “Red red red red red red red redneck.” Just pure Americana poetry indistinguishable from Samual Clemens.
  12. Crickey, how many hectares must a pastoral lease be to be considered a bloody “station”?
  13. She can ride my tractor in her bathing suit. Well call it “the tractor story” from “the camp”.
  14. Houston Burbs HEB, checking in. Would kill for better LO selection or any ABW. Usually just BrazosVB on the shelf, not sure if they’re aggy, but feels like aggy when I buy their stuff.
  15. This. Cedric Golden posted this last week. It’s false information shared by the players. Without any real discussion of the history and coming to terms with it some of our fan base will continue to sing The Eyes in an unofficial capacity and co-opt our school song into something it’s not, overtly racist lyrics. Blow-up the cowboy pavilion next to the Exes building or better yet turn it into a history documenting their misdeeds. Put the information out there so former athletes, alum, and current students can have meaningful discussion. I posted in the FB thread I hope The Eyes stay. I see it as a reminder and reaffirmation when I sing it that I belong to something greater than myself now. It’s just a song. My degree is just a piece of paper. The university is just a collection of buildings, staff, and students. Football is just a game. But together we’re better than the sum of our parts. I hope there is real dialogue and change. We can’t hide our history, but we can share it and be better Texans and Longhorns in the future. Edit:Tapa is being dumb when trying to embed the Golden tweet
  16. Absolutely. More muscle means more calories burned even at rest. Numerous studies to support that.
  17. RIP Noid. Gone, but not forgotten.
  18. ...by a guy in a A&M sweater... You know that liberal and diverse school that was our rival and was fully integrated in 1903.
  19. Yes. Him and his siblings & half-siblings are Scientologist. Too lazy to look at charges, but the stuff a few years back were #metoo allegations from the early 00s, including the Mars Volta guys wife/gf. Assume these are finally formal charges by a few of the exes and victims.
