  2. Hah. That reminds me of back in the day when my parents built theirs in Lakeway. Ended up being a lot shallower than originally planned.
  3. One of those killed clinging to the plane was just a kid https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-58272740
  4. Can’t forget Dallas’s own Uptown. I think this one charted.
  5. This one always reminds me of my Dad. So does Roseanne Cash’s Tennessee Flat Top Box. Strange as it is, he loved that song when it came out. He loved him some old time country and that song took him back. Simple catchy hook.
  6. I remember this being mildly amusing back in the day
  7. Going back won’t be the talking point. But I’ll bet the Isis and Al Queda terrorism talking points are getting warmed up.
  8. Circling back to this. It was a failed suicide attempt. Fill house with natural gas a la car in the garage with exhaust. Storm in area set off gas. Things go boom accidentally. He survived. Ended up in hospital in critical condition. Assuming he survives (apparently had a quadruple amputation), numerous charges pending. This is all via the grapevine from friends of friends in the neighborhood so take it for what it’s worth.
  9. For those wondering why a Christmas episode in August. I thought it was great. Bunch of grinches up in here. https://www.latimes.com/entertainment-arts/tv/story/2021-08-13/ted-lasso-christmas-episode-apple-tv
  10. Geez. Glad ours was already in. PS thx for the tips above. Drain and refill went fine. Dumped the spa water into the pool. Shutoff the skimmers and let the backwash run out of the main drain. Took about 5 hours. Refill took about 13 hrs with two hoses running overnight. Can’t wait for the water bill.
  11. I see stories like this and have a hard time feeling any sympathy. Mostly just anger. They have a go fund me setup to help pay for their dumbassedness. If only there was a way to prevent this in the first place... https://www.wbrz.com/news/husband-intubated-stuck-in-mexico-wife-trying-to-find-him-a-way-home/
  12. I have a playlist I breakout when it’s me time. Floating on the pool with a stiff ‘Rita. This song made the list a few years ago, sets the mood perfect.
  13. Pffft. I’ve ignored this whole thread until getting caught up with episode 3. Episode 1 was meh, nailed in detail above. Gotta love the Dutch guy. “I hate you and I don’t know you” or whatever that line was was great. Led Tasso, not so much. It’s little disjointed but has steadily worked its way up through episode 3. Roy Kent is great.
  14. How long has this been on the wall of the Jester public handicap stall? Can the original Surly poster who wrote it please translate?
  15. Thanks guys, I’m going to drain it myself this week. We’ll see how it goes…
  16. Yeah that’s my problem. I’m at the point now where i need to drain my pool and wondering if can do it myself. Thanks for the link.
  17. Ok so I’ve been so busy lately that I’ve not been able to keep up with my pool. I hired a guy to come right the ship and he says he can’t do it because the cyanuric acid level is too high. Fair enough. He wants to drain the pool and start over, which is apparently a thing I’m learning. Is this something I can do myself or should I rely on him? The internet seems to imply some risk with the pool structure buckling etc if not done right. On the other hand, a few you tube videos seem to imply it’s as easy as shutting off all but the main drain and let it rip in backwash mode. If I wait for him I’m out $500 and he can’t get out till the 19th. Surly?
  18. Whatever he’s playing on I will never get tired of his drum break on Got Me Under Pressure.
  19. Sad but true. Heroes of our youth ain’t getting any younger.
