  1. [mtg]Does this mean they'll unblur his dong now?[/mtg]
  2. I really wish we were the road team. The Stormtrooper look has been good to us the past two seasons. all black unis baby! #notserious
  3. Marchment has been a revelation this season and a boon to my fantasy hockey team
  4. nice little matinee endcap before the return to normalcy for a couple weeks. still kinda wild that the Stars have still not lost 3 in a row under DeBoer. that's consistency
  5. please tell me you plan to wear burnt orange the rest of the trip
  6. no team was going to keep up that pace. hell, we may never see another regular season team like BOS from a couple years where they went 65-12-5. I always tell myself a 2:1 win/loss ratio is what the standard should be. Anything below that an you will be battling for a playoff spot. The Jets are 5-5 in their last 10, which only proves them human. Plenty of runway left - to take off or crash. that's what makes it all so fun
  7. good win against a banged up avs team. was probably closer than it should have been as we let them back in again, but did enough to get it done.
  8. start it, smart guy. and be sure to include the long list of cited articles proving there is a leftist violence problem anywhere close to being on par with the right. Please show us all how wrong we are
  9. ah, so she's just as batshit and heartless as he is. got it
  10. We're at the quarter pole, or thereabouts, and here are some quick hits based on the first 20 games 1. We have played 12/20 games against teams with a winning record. Of those games, we are 6-6. 2. Against the teams we have played with a losing record, we are 7-1. 3. The combined win record for the teams we have beat is 116-129-40 or an equivalent win percentage of 48% 4. The record for teams we have lost to is 90-51-8 or a win percentage of 63% We are beating the teams we should and losing pretty steadily to teams we should be at least 50/50 with. I don't know if it's personnel or effort but we're off pace and 'feel' from last season. The next 21 should tell us a lot about how far we might go with the current roster and how necessary it will be to make a move or several before the trade deadline.
  11. 1. Are you in a City? If so you will likely need an architect and structural engineer, at a minimum. An interior designer often does not have credentials enough to obtain permits in most jurisdictions. In Austin it's an Architect or Certified Building Designer (and they are extremely limited in what they can stamp) and you still have to engage an engineer to do minimum structural design to get through permitting. 2. If I am understanding your construction sequence, you want to remodel and update the existing residence in preparation for a connection to a future adu. You want to do this work and the planning for other pieces of the work now and then build the adu and connecting structure later. My recommendation does not change - you are still going to get the best bang for your buck hiring an architect. They can do all the planning and phasing necessary so you don't have to undo work in the future that you have just completed. They will also be able to execute drawings to a level that you can get targeted bids and therefore you can be more precise in your material orders. 3. My bday is tomorrow and I just got married and I'm feeling somewhat magnanimous at the moment so I'll throw you some free advice: there is almost nowhere in the US a good screened porch isn't a valuable asset. Make your connecting structure a large screened porch and consider using a walkable roof so you can have an open (or covered) rooftop deck. again, good luck
  12. I don't really have much interest trying to outduel AI and I can't really afford to give away services. There is likely a solution for what you want to do and if you are reasonable about expectations for both soft costs and construction costs, you will have a product you will enjoy and appreciate for the rest of your life. Do it the wrong way and you'll wish you never started in the first place. That said, I'm happy to have a chat with you separately about how I might be able to help, or can point you in the direction of someone who can. Best of luck with your project(s).
  13. I don't think people in Texas, a state with a housing boom and desperately needing more, realize how many building materials come from Canada and Mexico. Forget the laborers, you've just jacked up the price of lumber and millwork 20% or more, by the time it reaches the jobsite. the mere threat is reckless. the execution could be devastating.
  14. Otter should have had that one. Hopefully that's his only oopsie today
  15. I could not be more indifferent to the "Wah, they don't have a member of my fringe party in the cabinet" whining. It doesn't even move the needly with regard to inequity and the hurt being felt by people around the world. hopefully those are the first people whose faces get eaten
  16. Here is the link to their gofundme. Up to about $6k and the initial goal of $10k was upped to $15k. May be time to shake out the wreath fund. https://gofund.me/9ddadb9d
  17. Boston is gonna regret that one. Time to sell everything and start the rebuild. What a dumpster fire. Reminds me of those awful years where Stars had no owner and basically no management. this is different in that this is incompetence vs leadership vacuum
  18. The best Saturdays are those where the Horns win, the sec implodes, and the stars win. So yeah, perfect Saturday. Cheers y'all!
  19. Just a blank page with one comment for me. Lol
