Downtown Projects
Speaking of the CVCs, I agree that many of these could be revisited -- this piece has some pretty good graphics of all of them from different perspectives: https://austin.towers.net/see-downtown-austins-capitol-view-corridors-in-eye-popping-3d/ See Downtown Austin’s Capitol View Corridors in Eye-Popping 3D

The Airplane Fanatic Thread
I'd not heard of this accident until after his death. https://buffettworld.com/incidents/widgeon-seaplane-crash/ On Thursday, August 25th, 1994 around 3:00 pm Eastern time, Jimmy Buffett crashed his Grumman G-44 Widgeon, N1471N, while attempting to takeoff in the waters off Nantucket, Massachusetts. The airplane nosed over, and Jimmy was able to swim to safety, sustaining only minor injuries. Buffett credits his survival to Navy Survival Training he had to complete before being able to ride in an F-14 Tomcat from the deck of an aircraft carrier. NTSB Narrative: At the time of the accident, Buffett had about 1,500 total hours, including 400 in multi-engine aircraft and 190 in the Widgeon. Grumman G-44 Widgeon.

What can I do with a bunch of ghost peppers?
- Game Day Experience 2023
I went to a great Friday night Texas/OU party up somewhere in North Dallas back in the day. The hosts of the party had "won" the bartending services of Wally Pryor for that evening's party at a Texas Exes fundraising event. Wally was a blast, but I'm guessing that most of the drinks he mixed were his own!- RIP Jimmy Buffett
Marketing genius. He and his buddy JJW (with a hat tip to JJW's wife Susanna, who also seems to be very savvy) made a point of holding their music rights at their own record labels. JB kicked it up another notch with his licensing agreements with restaurants, resorts, and the 55+ retirement community. He was a very smart guy and a pirate at heart. RIP to yet another pirate gone too soon.- the fuck's going on at Burning Man?
I read all of that in an Dale Gribble voice.- Hunting ‘23/‘24: Bag ‘em and Tag ‘em
I brought home a bunch of prickly pears weekend before last -- my son is doing some kind of tequila brew with them. IDK how that will turn out, but if I don't die, I will let y'all know about it.- Mass Shootings
I just wish that there was some way that I could say "Thanks for the gang bang" without violating "the rules" about needing to post pics about this subject! So many negs, so little time. The group-think in this place on this subject is beyond dumb. People are not going to sell/surrender their lawfully owned guns. Criminals are always going to have access to guns. Imprison/Execute or otherwise keep criminals away from the rest of society. Keep legal citizens armed and secure. Stay safe, kids.- Mass Shootings
Does C-Man have some alter ego's? It doesn't matter -- I'm happy to debate with all of them.- Mass Shootings
Have some rep. IDGAF.- Mass Shootings
You seem like a smart guy, and very knowledgeable about insurance things, but you seem to be blinded by Dem party theology. There has got to be more to that story.- Mass Shootings
Let's take this up in person at Lee Harvey's on the Friday before Texas/OU.- Mass Shootings
You may disagree with me on many subjects, but I am no troll. I go to Surly events. I'll tell you my handle. Many know my name. Hook 'em!- Mass Shootings
Despicable deflection from what anybody was talking about. Some fool was talking about me being a troll up the thread Slavery on a gun thread in 2023. Nice!- Hunting ‘23/‘24: Bag ‘em and Tag ‘em
Put those Meatheads to work before it gets too hot tomorrow!- Mass Shootings
Thanks, errybody. I DGAF about rep, but I enjoy debate and would like to honestly discuss the difficult issues that we deal with in our country. I seem to be swimming upstream against the prevailing political orthodoxy here. Great that Texas Football starts on September 2nd! Hook 'em!- Mass Shootings
I heard Biden say some of that shit last week. "How fucking stupid do you think we are?" https://www.stripes.com/theaters/us/2022-09-02/biden-bungled-talking-point-ar15-muzzle-velocity-7193450.html#:~:text=A 9mm handgun%2C the most,faster than the 9mm handgun.- What the fuck is wrong with you, Austin?
Man -- that is a two way street. Other counties should chime in. Sill pissed about the Austin vacant homeless hotel in Williamson County.- Mass Shootings
Middle fingers vs. facts. Very telling. Thanks to each of you for your admissions against self interest.- Mass Shootings
Many thanks to all of the mass neggers. It is useful to learn how many of you lack a basic understanding of legal firearms that American citizens have a right to own. Semi-automatic firearms -- the kind that send a single bullet for each trigger pull have been around for the last hundred years or so. The normal round for an AR-15 (who's name reflects the manufacturer --Armalite -- not Assualt Rifle) is a .223 which is generally appropriate only for small game and white-tailed deer at close range. But carry on with your scare tactics. All the best.- Mass Shootings
Cool. None of the above gyrating is gonna change people. Enforcing existing laws might. I'm not optimistic about the human condition, though.- What the fuck is wrong with you, Austin?
Worth a trip. That and Marfleless, Wednesday through Saturday.- Mass Shootings
Thank you. I appreciate reasoned discussion and debate.- Mass Shootings
The record will show that I have posted on this thread a fair amount today -- but I have no fucking idea of most what you are are talking about, and the little that I do understand has no relationship to what you are talking about.- Mass Shootings
I appreciate the above discussion -- but wow, does anybody think that we are close to that in American society? Not this guy. - Game Day Experience 2023
