    Checked on Facebook, and they are still going to continue on. She sold the restaurant to her niece a few years ago.
  2. Between the non existent response to the dark traffic signals and the lack of a coherent response to this group shutting down a major intersection, APD is showing that even with record funding they refuse to do simple police work like traffic control. Not exactly making the case for a better contract when they don’t even meet simple metrics like this under their current one.
  3. She didn’t need the money put back. She needed an excuse for why it was gone in the first place. Accountants Don’t just look at the balance they look at the transactions.
  4. Whose kids organized a “mansion rager” at a house they don’t even live at? https://www.fox7austin.com/news/mansion-rager-party-northwest-austin-family-home

    The breakfast burritos are the size of 2-3 regular breakfast tacos. Keep that in mind, and don't over order. Or do. Just know what you're doing. They are great, but don't sleep on the chilaquiles. Truth. I've tried to go a couple of times when they should be open, but were randomly closed. One of them led me to eat at La Mancha - which I posted about on another thread here, which made me decide to never go to La Mancha again.
  6. Go here just for the pun alone (if you don't know, FM 3009 is pronounced three double-o nine by the locals): https://3phobowl09.com

    You’d assume wrong. My wife sent back her margarita, it was that bad, last time we were there. Which will be our last. I’ve given it enough chances.
  8. The police who are testifying are just saying that if they don't get the 4 year contract, they won't agree to any additional oversight. Cool argument, APD.

    The breakfast at La Cocina de Consuela is so good it makes me forgive the shitty parking.

    All of you have terrible taste, and should be ashamed of that. I've tried La Mancha several times, and each time, it gets worse. It has no redeeming qualities. And on top of that, the drinks are terrible.
  11. There has been a rash of people drugging men on Rainey, not to rape them but to use their fingerprint/face id to access their phones and then send Venmo/cash app payments to the person who drugged them. Wonder if that is happening and then the drugged men wander into the lake since Rainey is closer to the water.
  12. Hadn’t heard about Castroville, and I’m originally from there. Of course, I left when I was 18 and I’ve spent the last 20+ years away (only go back for holidays and don’t stay long).
  13. Facts are stubborn things
  14. El Paso County. The Elected DA was also going to be tried over this (and other issues) by the County Attorney, but she resigned once the trial was allowed to proceed against her.
  15. Since you can go to the store and buy one now, she probably needs to sell for a loss. Unless someone pays a premium for some tit pics to go with the console.
  16. You usually have to pay extra for those seats.
  17. KUT had a spot in the afternoon about Cronk, and how the City Council added an item to this weeks agenda about discussing his performance. The outro music was “Heads Will Roll” by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. I laughed.
  18. In one of the news conferences last week, Elton Richards said that a previous city council made the decision to scale back tree trimming. I wonder which council/councils are responsible, and if any of the members are still there.
  19. It’s the tragedy of then commons, only in reverse.
  20. Pm sent.
  21. Give me his number.
  22. Not us. We got the text about a crew being assigned around 2 am and then a text power was restored about an hour later. However it went out again but was restored again around 6am. All of that was texted to me.
  23. Spectrum is back up. And unlike Austin Energy they were able to troubleshoot and get me back online in a matter of minutes.
  24. Power is back, so didn’t quite make it to 100 hours. Right at about 96 hours. As I suspected, spectrum is out though.
