  1. I don't live in that area anymore and haven't for quite some time, but looking at google maps I would say yes. It was at the intersection of Medical Arts, 40th and Marathon.
  2. Yep, i played Pony ball there a couple years before filming. Part of the deal with the Pony field was to add that gate in right field. It didn't exist prior to the movie. Most of the car chase at the beginning of the film was in the neighborhood right around that area too. It was Ballards grocery on Medical parkway where they got shot at.
  3. Friend of my in laws had this happen to him a few months ago. He was changing an outside light on a 2 story house. When the ladder fell he landing breaking his neck. He is now dead leaving behind a wife and 2 kids. It was after dark and his wife and kids were asleep in the house. A neighbor found him on the ground already dead. Told my wife I am no longer putting up the Xmas lights.
  4. The HOA parks and parks managed by our water district were closed last week. Still lots of people on them. School district closed the schools, but people still playing on the school playgrounds(because there wasn't a sign saying not to). It's not just Spanish speaking demographic. The people I am talking about are upper middle class white people.
  5. Every time I visit that board I feel like I just walked into a Walmart and then need to shower.
  6. From the videos I have watched they are comparable with the exception of the toe box maybe being a tad smaller. I have yet to try them on. Delivery has been delayed due to how busy UPS and Fedex have been in the last week or so.
  7. Even if they are mapped out correctly, construction crews in my experience are careless where they dig. I had the same company cut a line in 3 different times that was perfectly marked on paper and at the site. Still cut the damn thing 3 times.
  8. Yep and moving kids out of dorms as well... The university is requiring students to move home from their residence halls, though emergency housing will be available on a case-by-case basis to students who have compelling reasons to remain on campus, or who do not have other living arrangements. We will provide details for how to apply for emergency campus housing in the upcoming days. Residents who are currently on campus can begin to move out immediately. Students who are not currently on campus will need to sign up for a time to move out via the University Housing and Dining website starting on Monday, March 23. The university will also offer pro-rated refunds on housing and dining contracts and coordinate those decisions with financial aid packages. Recreational Sports and University Unions facilities are closed until further notice.
  9. Cueros on sale for $99 with free shipping
  10. I have been on the edge about getting one for years. Finally did when the great TP rush of 2020 happened.
  11. Anything over 2500(no idea why that number is chosen). They stated in the article that events can ask for an exemption, but no idea what that means.
  12. https://www.kxan.com/news/coronavirus/large-gatherings-banned-in-austin-through-may-1-city-says/ Large gatherings in Austin shut down. 2500+
  13. Same thing here, wife ordered something for a Xmas present in late November not knowing it was from China and it arrived yesterday.
  14. This boot guy of yours must be amazing, I just stopped driving a manual about 4 years ago. I was conscious about it today and did notice that my heel was planted and I just rotated. I tried it the other way and it was uncomfortable as hell. Now I am going to have to have some "driving" shoes.
  15. I noticed this on my calfskin boots. Was trying to figure out why this was happening on them and this makes a lot of sense.
  16. Yep, my son had the same joke for me about a year ago, might have even posted it here. I laughed and said good one. Then he promptly turned to his mom when she came into the room and told it again. She was not amused.
