Projection doesn't only happen in movie theaters.

Shopped at Twin's Dollar Days earlier. Not out of hand yet -- just a couple of fingers of bourbon so far.

All of our guns are always loaded and are treated as such. They are rather useless when they are not loaded.

No fun, Brat. Hope errything comes out OK! I know that I'm gonna be in good shape tomorrow because I had a big bowl of spicy menudo for breakfast this morning! Edit -- I'd forgotten about this King of the Hill episode: https://kingofthehill.fandom.com/wiki/Hank's_Unmentionable_Problem#:~:text=Everett Koop-,Trivia,where he discovers that Dr.

That's where I'm coming from. Cell is really spotty out at our place, plus fucking around on a cell phone with bloody hands is less than ideal. I hadn't even thought about the GPS and privacy considerations. Hard pass.

Thanks for the reminder. I just renewed mine online. I'm still a Luddite at heart, though. I asked them to send me a paper license. I don't trust those new-fangled digital tags.

I'd not heard of them before. Great website. Hope that they cook as good as all of that looks!

Let's not overlook the Anderson Trojans shellacking the McCallum Knights 42-0 in the Taco Shack Bowl last night. Texas (baseball) signee Ed Small was the key player for the Trojans in their victory. Anderson scores early and often, runs away with 42-0 Taco Shack Bowl win over McCallum https://www.kxan.com/sports-general/high-school-sports/for-all-the-tortillas-anderson-mccallum-clash-in-22nd-annual-taco-shack-bowl/

Good to be in Austin and to have that dilemma! Those would both be good choices.

I posted that because when I was an assistant manager at a Pizza Hut in high school, we had a crew of square dancers that would come in about 30 minutes before closing time every Saturday night. They always had discount coupons, drank only water, made us stay open late, their kids would make a mess, and dollars and bible tracts were sure to be found when they left.

Smoke + Fire = I think that there is a story coming soon.

I always give a crisp new one dollar bill and a bible tract as a tip. I figure that the bible tract is of incalculable value.

1977 @ Armadillo World Headquarters AC/DC made their first US appearance as an opening act for Moxy It wasn't a close call

Freakishly impressive!

Same as it ever was. COA planning & development department sucks. Hopefully Mayor Watson's intervention can overcome the bureaucrats. More tacos, less red tape.

Mom always said that it was unseemly to brag. That said, congrats to all you South Texas guys.

Give them some credit -- they said that it was "very" wet.

I love the DART example. They now use CNG-powered busses that are around $300k a pop, have plenty of range, and are not so heavy that they tear up the streets. Capital Metro, OTOH, is doing the virtue-signaling EV busses, purchased from the bankrupt manufacturer at around $1.2 MM a pop, can go around 150 miles per cycle, and are quite heavy.

I'm still looking forward to taking my granddaughter for a ride on a kiddie railroad in Zilker Park.

Thought this was pretty cool: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/10_0mTJbPqG4J1J-Qex7KKaMfKN42OrbEfKS3ZqiIhRU/edit#gid=0

Not according to the pleadings of the club members participating in the class actions.

There is a reason that most private country and downtown clubs put language like this on their checkout tabs: "The service charge calculated on all food and beverage transactions is applied toward offering employees a higher hourly rate and used toward offsetting costs associated with employee benefits." There has been significant litigation as to whether the club member had the expectation that the service charge was going directly to the server or if that the charge was, in effect, additional member dues or assessments.

The Electric-Vehicle Bubble Starts to Deflate By The Editorial Board Aug. 21, 2023 6:38 pm ET https://www.wsj.com/articles/electric-vehicles-china-biden-administration-industrial-policy-754e1937?mod=hp_opin_pos_1 "It’s ironic, to say the least, that the U.S. is seeking to imitate China’s economic model at the moment that its industrial policy fractures. Look no further than its collapsing electric-vehicle bubble, which is a lesson in how industries built by government often also fail because of government." Snip: "Cox Automotive reported this month that EV inventory had swelled to 103 days of supply in the U.S., about double that of gas-powered cars. Auto makers and dealers are discounting EVs to sell their growing supply. The average EV price paid by consumers has fallen 20% compared with a year ago to $53,438, driven by Tesla’s price cuts and dealer incentives. Ford recently reduced its EV production targets as its losses and unsold inventory grow. At the end of June, it had 116 days of unsold Mustang Mach-Es, and GM’s electric Hummer had more than 100 days of supply. And this is in a growing economy. Traditional auto makers will have to raise prices on gas-powered cars to compensate for their EV losses. A United Auto Workers executive said Sunday that Stellantis is threatening to move production of its Ram 1500 trucks to Mexico from suburban Detroit, no doubt to reduce costs. The EV jobs President Biden touts will come at the cost of union jobs building gas-powered vehicles." Sorry if you can't get behind WSJ paywall. If you can't, perhaps you could reconsider some of your life choices.
