  1. Remember that as well. It was insanely bright.
  2. 1 Texas A&M 2 OU But I will never be for Baylor. They are rape enabling assholes
  3. Waze has a setting to take previous drives into consideration. Don't know if apple does too. Waze gets pretty damn close on timing, especially on less than 3 hour trips.
  4. I stand and stir fast at a higher heat and only for about 35-45 min. It’s so good this way I just can’t try the oven method at my core.
  5. In a bowl with bread for sopping!
  6. Made some Gumbo today for the In-laws while in North Carolina. Start of the roux Roux is done Veggies added Sausage(andouille) and chicken added
  7. Whatever happened do TPing his yard, or putting icy Hot in his jock. Hell, even dumping his head in the toilet is better than this. At least that won't kill him. Seems like assault to me.
  8. Ha, sark gonna sark
  9. No receiver in the area. Same as last week
  10. He makes some bone head throws…just get rid of it
  11. Are those magic peanuts?
  12. So the shooter is allegedly in the reserves, a firearms instructor , and a tactical trainer…at least he is well regulated militia.
  13. It’s a different kind of paid and bought…
  14. Been raining good between Austin and Drippjng for about 45 minutes. Local consumer weather stations near me are showing between .5-1 inch so far.
  15. no, apparently he is a friend and ally of McCarthy
  16. Have a senior right now and he is in the middle of applying to schools. I went to UT and there is no way I would get in now. He is no where near top 10% only for lack of trying and the school he goes to is extremely competitive. He is in the top 10% of SAT scores and he has no interest in AP courses unless they are a subject he likes. He is a brilliant kid...skips a generation, my dad went to Dartmouth. That being said I work for a university that pays his tuition where I am, so we are fortunate. The university also has a tuition exchange program where he can go to other schools with tuition paid. He will probably end up where I work, but he has the option for a ton of other schools. It is not UT, but he will get out of school debt free. That is all I can ask now a days.
  17. Had leftover dried chilies from making chili w/o beans last weekend, so decided to make birria tacos. Hadn’t tried making them before and they turned out fantastic. Used a combo of chuck roast and short ribs.
  18. Decided to make some today for the game. Used a combo of the JJ recipe on page 1 and then my own stuff added. Wish it was a little more spicy, but had a ton of flavor.
  19. Kids are dropping like flies in our school District. Son brought it home and I have had it since Thursday night. Used an old test for both my son and myself and it popped almost immediately. Son got over it in a couple days. Hoping tomorrow is better for me.
  20. Looks like Murphy put his helmet on to start warming up
  21. I was talking about this with some folks the other day. What was the result of the hearing?
  22. Homemade Meatball sub.
  23. My mother passed away last week and my Dad thought it was time to start giving stuff away. He gave me a lot of my grandfathers service records from WWII along with some other things. The one thing that I have always wanted to keep in the family is a piece of flak that struck my grandfather in the chest on one of his 35 missions. The flak and his mission list is posted below. The picture of the mission list is a scan, but I have the real one that is pretty delicate, so didn’t want to handle it. I remember looking at it as a young boy in amazement and one of my greatest regrets in life is not talking with my grandfather about the war. I have no idea if he would have been open to it, but he died when I was 18 and I didn’t have the sense to talk with him at that age. I have some other things that I’ll post in the future, but this is the most treasured to me.
  24. Total looks to be 2-2.5 inches of rain in just over an hour. Lots of pea sized hail and the 13 yr old woke up and asked if we were about to die since it was so loud.
