  1. I overlooked the kids part!
  2. That is a beating, for sure!
  3. Don't know about all the logistics for your situation, but put Texas Chili Parlor, Matt's El Rancho, The Tavern, Crown and Anchor, the Cloak Room, and Scholtz Garten on your dance card for your trip to Austin.
  4. Anderson grad here. Wife was Westlake product. We just decided to take control of our kid's education, K-8. Reading, Writing, and Arithmetic were the focus. That left them plenty of time for other stuff like musical instruments, athletic teams, and field trips. Could not have done it without my stay at home wife (who just happens to have a teaching certificate). YMMV. LT seems like a good place to be.
  5. Don't sell that liver and onions short.
  6. @Nicole44 The headline reminded me of you. Glamorous suspected serial killer ‘takes pleasure in killing." https://nypost.com/2025/10/14/world-news/glamorous-suspected-serial-killer-linked-to-4-deaths/?dicbo=v2-rIt24uK
  7. We have two turkey roasters that I use for that. The warming oven looks cool. Congrats.
  8. Truth! Same thing with rental cars. Airfare is not crazy, thankfully.
  9. We are not Surly 1%, but we saw this coming a long time age. Did home school and private school. Both kids are now college grads and fully deployed. AISD is hopeless. Press one for English.
  10. I'm not gonna be in D at Lee Harvey's for the first time in many years. The magic word is Muledick.

    If so, that would be Reed Clemons. Pretty good operator.

    That is funny! So many geeky white guys wearing Rush T-shirts!

    This is her youtube channel. pretty solid: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0P-ec6f8-oeueSf84RQZZg
  14. Showing up at the bar is pretty fun, anyway. Great place.
  15. Just clearing out some I-35 expansion ROW.
  16. Any of y'all that live northwest or RR, Cedar Park, etc. and have to fly through DFW anyway, should seriously look at flying from GRK. We've started doing it as our standard and could not be happier. No Austin traffic or AUS security shit show. Parking is much cheaper and way closer in to the terminal. Flights have always been on time in and out of there. Embraer Regional Jet service through American Eagle, EJR 175s, mostly, I think. YMMV.
  17. But this problem has been staring in their face for at least a decade and they chose the political path of least resistance.
  18. Same. I have been giving one person on the inside shit about this for a decade. They say that I just don't understand the politics. OK, but I do understand the numbers. Something needs to change.
  19. I am an AISD and UT product. (Anderson Trojan hollah!) But we decided to home school and private school our kids. We paid the taxes, but didn't partake in their offerings. I very much hope that AISD can get it together.
  20. No disagreement. But I still think that they have not had the political will to deal with the icebergs ahead of them. None of this should be a surprise. Probably going on at least 10 years or more.
  21. And I am not endorsing the nuances of the redistricting changes. Details. What is obvious in the big picture is that the AISD needs less desks and less square footage. And the administration and school board have not had the political will to deal with that reality.
  22. Rip the band aid off. This is no fun, but it is ridic that the administration and schoolboard have not more aggressively dealt with this. Enrollment is way down. Facilities have not followed. Right size.
  23. Crazy. I really miss him. The last video interview of him with Gary Shandling at his home/studio at Malibu is so haunting. Both gone.
