  1. Rental just makes a lot more sense than buying right now. I’m looking at apartments for my daughter in the LES(ish) and while I considered making an investment, it’s the choice between renting a pretty decent place or buying an unliveable money pit.
  2. Hmm. Well, I was getting a button sewn back on my favorite sport coat at the Chanin building, and found a large amount of poop near the subway entrance. Later that evening, I was walking to dinner in the village and got cruised by Andy Cohen. Not my thing, but at this age I appreciate any attention I get. What a city! Each slice of life contains multitudes. A grand old Babylon.
  3. Just remember the first rule of safe driving: have fun!
  4. Yep, except I don’t keep track. I just add some of whatever comes through the cabinet and seems like it would be interesting.
  5. Hell of a performance though
  6. Why are you using Penn Station from the East Side instead of Grand Central/Madison?
  7. It sounds harder than it is. In reality it’s super easy. Take the AirTran to Jamaica, get off, walk for 30 second, take a left, walk 30 seconds to the LIRR, and in 20-25 mins you’ll be in Penn Station or Grand Central.
  8. I wonder what his nickname is for Obama. Probably something like “Barry Bigshot,” or “Bear.”
  9. I think I know where that is, and in any kind of traffic he just cost himself 45mins to an hour doing that. If that’s all his time is worth, he’s welcome to keep his $15 IMO.
  10. The crazy thing is how it makes you appreciate driving in the right conditions. I love cars and love driving, in part because I spend almost no time stuck in traffic. Everything I need in Austin is less than a mile from my house except the airport, and that’s only 15 mins away. Otherwise I’m traveling, usually to places with good public transportation. At worst, either I’m driving on open highway, which is a joy, or somebody else is driving in traffic for me. The AirTran + LIRR is great. I’m spend roughly 1/3 of my time in midtown, and I never take a car between manhattan and JFK anymore. It’s 50-60 mins reliably between the elevators of my office and the gate. Ridiculous.
  11. Of course there will be some high visibility cuts of well known discretionary spending, but this will largely be theatrical in nature and will only result in degraded services benign along the lines of things like drivers license offices in Texas. The function of these cuts will be to cover the very likely reality of growing deficits. Non-defense discretionary spending is small potatoes.
  12. Both of my parents have (separately) been held in the detention cell at the HP police station, so, can confirm.
  13. You said it was the last thing, but who’s to blame here? The BOR? Abbott? I get that it was a lot of factors but who could have talked him out of leaving and didn’t?
  14. Good points. But still, as an alumnus, it’s just really embarrassing. Also user name checks out. 😉
  15. Are you kidding? This is like leaving Cal to take the same job at Pepperdine. Nobody makes this move who is happy with their oversight situation and it’s incredibly embarrassing for Texas.
  16. There’s a bit at the end blowing up on social media right now, but all 3:26 of this is worth your time. Big Daddy Kane was an incredible performer even for his own time but you just don’t have MCs that can hold a live audience like this today. Just an old school party MC making it look easy.
  17. Cardi B at ACL a few years ago. Showed up late, sounded like shit, didn’t put anything into it and disrespected the audience who had waited for her.
  18. Booker: Great news! we’ve got two of the three most famous and influential musicians from the same high school, which also happens to be the premier performing arts high school in our state! C3 Scheduler: awesome! Let’s put them on at the same time!
  19. I’m still furious about C3’s biggest ACL scheduling fuckup ever, 3 years ago when they put St. Vincent and Erykah Badu on at the same time. How does that even happen?
  20. Major Applewhite didn’t win shit? This is so ignorant it makes Helobious seem like ScipioTex. The modern era of Texas football doesn’t happen without Major Applewhite’s biggest two wins. He’s a pivotal player in the history of the program.
  21. Well I am old, but that’s a bad take. If you were old enough to see Major Applewhite play you’re old know to know he was miles better than Sam (no disrespect to Ehlinger). Despite sharing time he set 48 school records, won two bowl games when that still meant something, and to your ridiculous point about not winning big games, he beat Nebraska at home not to mention the last elite Aggy team. And Ash? come on man.
  22. This is a bad take. Please delete your post.
