Looking for a rec on a place to stop and grab lunch on 290 somewhere between Houston and Austin this coming Friday. Was initially thinking BBQ but maybe instead a place with barbacoa, brisket tacos...etc.
It's been a while since I've been there, but Zimmerhanzel's in Smithville has been known to make some decent 'cue. Give us a report wherever you go.
Ban user. I focused on the "between Austin and Houston" part, but missed the 290 part!

Are there any good Chinese food restaurants near Anderson Ln?

That sucks about Ranch 616. Texas Chili Parlor!

Mamma's is good, but maybe a bit overrated. I love Merriman's and Roy's, with great stores all over Hawaii. Paia Fish Market, which also has multiple locations, is pretty solid. Enjoy the ride.

I took some clients from France to Ranch 616 and they couldn't believe how big and thick the lamb chops were. They showed me pics of the tiny lamb chops they'd had earlier that week in Paris.

Other classics that I take out of state people to are Texas Chili Parlor, Scholtz's, Ranch 616, Matt's, and Dirty Martin's.

As much as I don't like the food there, the County Line on the Hill is perfect for such an event. Margaritas out on the patio with a great view. Huge beef ribs. Memorable for out of towners.

And the electricity required to charge this plane's batteries comes from a plant powered by what sort of magical source?

This storm is about to witness the firepower of the fully armed and operational Austin Forcefield.
IDK about that. No rain yet, but the big winds just arrived at our country place near Liberty Hill.

One can only hope.

The regime needs to be swept into the dustbin of history:
Raul Castro participating in an execution:
Priests with a prisoner just before execution:
Che after experiencing his just and sudden ending:
Libertad Cuba!

Colonoscopy
in Lulz
A friend has a family history of colon cancer so she's been doing colonoscopies annually since she was 40 -- that's 20+ years. She is also a dietitian. She has found that it is way easier to go through all of the prep if you start 12-24 hours earlier than what the "blow it all out of your butt in the last few hours" instructions say.
My wife and I have followed her advice and had no issues at all. I also followed another friend's advice that "vodka is a clear liquid" to take the edge off of the prep fasting!
No kidding about the great sleep during the procedure.

I saw a strange thing today. A rebel was being arrested by the military police. And rather than be taken alive he exploded a grenade he had hidden in his jacket.He killed himself and took a captain of the command with him. Now, soldiers are paid to fight; the rebels aren't.
What does that tell you?
They can win
That exchange between Michael and Roth was the first thing I thought of when I saw this story happening today. The movie clip I posted above had lots of other stuff, but it was the only thing that I could find that included that dialogue.

Just checking back with Fox News and CNN. Nada.
It’s like the Weather Channel on a Saturday or Sunday, when there is a tornado outbreak across the plains, or a Hurricane approaching Texas, and they are showing “Storm Stories.” Jeez
Somehow the expatriate Cuban population in Miami figured it out despite the media blackout! Libertad!

That's where I sit. Let's make sure Venezuela, China, et. al. stay out as well. Let the Cubans sort it out for themselves.

So, without going CR, what is the US Government's best play here?
If being opposed to an oppressive communist dictatorship 90 miles from our shore is CR -- count me as guilty!

I just wanted to add that I really appreciate this thread. I drink more than the average bear, but I'm generally good with my standard cocktail hour regime. Lots of wisdom on here and I am glad to have the benefit of all of y'all's life experience if I should ever get off the rails.

I’m 6’1” and the last time I weighed 150 was my freshman year of high school after I had grown a foot over 2 years and hadn’t filled out yet. Fighting weight was around 190 my senior year when I was playing pretty high level basketball. I have tree trunks for legs. Put on 10 not so good pounds the first few years of college and have fluctuated between 200-215 in the 20ish years since. Covid pushed me to the upper end of that range and I’m now getting back to the lower end of it. I eat pretty healthy 5 nights a week, exercise moderately, and eat whatever the fuck I want a couple of times a week. I could probably get back under 200 if I gave up booze, but I’m not doing that.
Early 60's. I'm 6'0", was probably around 170 in college. Got up to 235 during all of the Covid clampdown. Today weighed in at 212, just staying away from bread, wine and beer (yay martinis and neat bourbon!) I'd be fine to stay at around 200, or maybe a little less. BMI says that would be bad, but screw 'em!

agree. I have a habit now of asking for the doggy-bag when my meal comes. If it's too much food, I take some home.
My wife and I do that regularly. Cut in half when it is first served. Get a container for leftovers. Personal choice. Personal responsibility. Just like whiskey and tobacco.
