  1. Understand, but I feel like it’s different if you were “exposed” to Mike from accounting at a 15 minute staff meeting versus being “exposed to a care giver”. We are keeping her out for the time being.
  2. A falling knife has no handle!
  3. My wife tested positive on Friday. Me and the kids don't have any symptoms, and our 6 year old is vaccinated. We emailed the school to let them know and that we planned to keep 6 yo out of school until the wife is done with her isolation (we are all at home together, so not really a quarantine). The school emailed back to say that as long as the 6 yo was vaccinated and not showing symptoms that she could go back to school. That seems counter-intuitive to me. Do the schools need the dollars of kids in class that much to encourage kids to return even though a household member tested positive less than 5 days ago?
  4. Good to know, since I have both Netflix and Disney+, but not Starz
  5. Welp, now everyone knows exactly what this gif is for iPhone users:
  6. breakfast club talk:
  7. I agree they stuck the landing, but it certainly helped that the source material was structured the way it is - 3 three-book arcs to resolve the main human conflicts in each arc in the third book. It also gives me hope that they’ll eventually finish the series (either as a few more seasons, or a movie trilogy) because it’s an easier sell - built in fan base, ending already written, and history of ending it (twice already) in a better fashion than most shows.
  8. I agree. It was disjointed. Editing and cutting some scenes would have helped it flow, and putting some flashbacks in a different order.
  9. I would start from the beginning because there was enough characters who were important that the show either combined or didn’t include. But if don’t want to do that, at least read Cibola Burn (what the 4 the season was based on) and the Strange Dogs Novella before you read the last 3. There’s enough from those two books that factor majorly into the last three that you’d be a bit lost without reading them.
  10. He told Naomi about it, and she told him not to protect her like that again. Did you miss that scene?
  11. We all know that tonight is the series finale, but what this tweet presupposes is ... maybe it's not.
  12. “They” being the Pykes or the Hutts?
  13. More Stephen Root please. He kills me in everything he is in.
  14. That Flemings is ass, my dude. Clientele is not doing them any favors at that location, and they were in the middle of a remodel in December (probably still going on) where they literally had folding chairs at some tables and really harsh bright lighting in the main dinning room, bathrooms were a literal shit show, etc. Won't be going back to that one.
  15. There's a Trucluck's over there. Not sure if that is what you're thinking of - it's not quite in the Gateway. NXNW also used to be over there, but it's closed now.
  16. Why not both? Seafood tower to start, steak for entree. And lots of drinks.
  17. It was open in December. Had my office Holiday dinner there right before Omicron Omicron'd. The Z'Tejas in the same parking lot closed. There is construction going on there, but Eddie V's was still open last month.
  18. I’d got to Eddie Vs over Perry’s for steak. It is in the Arboretum, which is a short drive from the domain. 5 minutes short.
  19. If you want a good coffee / espresso you should go to Turnstile at Burnet near Rutland (very close to the Domain, near the Austin FC stadium). I know the owner, but I don’t get any discounts or anything. He’s from Seattle originally and IMHO their espresso drinks are some of the best in Town due to his background prior to coming to Texas. They also serve beer and cocktails later in the day; and have a burger stand Tuesday - Saturday evenings with very good burgers. Its not fine dining but it’s a good option for a coffee in the morning or a drink and burger in the afternoon/evening if you don’t want to go far and get dressed up. https://www.turnstilebrews.com
