I got into UT in 1976 because the primary qualification for admission was a pulse. Times they are a changin'

I need to figure out how to do pictures. Tasmania is an amazing place with amazing people. Hobart has a bit of an Austin vibe to it (if Austin was a sea port). Weather is interesting there. We were only on the island for 3 days and I think we experienced all 4 seasons. If you ever go, stay at the Customs House Hotel. It's right on the harbor and an easy walk to Salamanca pier where the night life is. We took a boat tour around Maria Island (off SE coast). I need to get pictures up as the place is stunning. It was a small-ish boat carrying about 20 of us. A front came up from the south and the Tasman Sea got really angry really fast. Most of the boat was sick....wife and I took some kidding from the crew as being "Texas strong" and holding our own (they love Texans, BTW, every Tassie we met said Texas is on their bucket list). If you're into history Port Arthur is the place to go. For yucks we hung around and took the after dark ghost tour. No ghosts but getting unrestricted access to the grounds after all the tourists had left was worth it. The 90 min drive back to Hobart after dark was interesting. I almost ran over a wallaby and Tassie Devil in one 15 min span. We only scratched the surface. We didn't make it up to Launceston or the inland area. Its a long trip down there but I'll do it again. I have unfinished business. ps: To get to Australia we did 15 hrs, 25 mins nonstop from Vancouver to Melbourne and the return was 15 hrs Sydney to Houston. There are no words to describe what that's like.

Maracaibo isn't in Ecuador.

I would love to fly in a 787max... I flew in a 787-900 on Sunday for 15 f**king hours.......

I'm waiting on the alleged CEO names. That will be fun.....

Stanley Park was very “scenic” even on a cold day like today.

Don’t kid yourself....there’s a metric ton of Longhorns in The Woodlands.

This is why I only visit the North Rim.

I'll be there next weekend. No Uber? What year is it? Do they at least take credit cards or will I have to buy their play money?

They deserved each other. What a shame...

Will CNN be holding a Town Hall?

everyone is buying a pick up or an SUV (small, medium, or large)

Couldn't they just....let it go?

The Audible ad about listening to each other. Here's an idea...take the damn ear buds out of your head and actually interact with someone.
