  1. Went from far north Austin to Smithville, then Bastrop once the drive to the Capitol got to be the same drive time. Loved it! Once we retired (ages 51/52) after a year we decided to move full time to the coast community we’ve had a house at for decades outside Port Lavaca. Surprisingly decent schools, but PL is a real shit hole! Shopping consists of HEB and Wal Mart, (both run down) and other than like 20 Mexican restaurants in a town of 15k the options are very limited. Closest city is Victoria, and it’s just a larger shit hole. I miss living in Bastrop almost daily, but Austin not one bit.
  2. Just followed someone going 2.5 under the limit for 15 miles on a busy 2 lane with no opportunity to pass!
  3. Unless she murdered said family member and is in jail awaiting trial or owns the company this is unacceptable! 4 months bereavement leave and it’s still ongoing?
  4. Howard may be on suicide watch over the Dr Agus revelations. Could explain the week off!
  5. I’ve got 2, probably already listed. The Homesman with Tommy Lee Jones, and the animated movie Rango with Johnny Depp and Ned Beatty. Both are pretty good.
  6. No better trash TV on the planet!
  7. Second freaking comment. Jesus Christ…
  8. Currently watching The Marine with John Cena because my kid was watching it when I sat down. I’d never seen it before, now I wish that were still the case.
  9. It’s actually the anti- religious nuts that are upset.
  10. Gotta consider the competition level. He was able to use his name/schtick to attract the best talent in the lowest level of college football. Completely different world at the D1 level. He’s doing all the right things, now we’ll see if he’s got the talent to pull it off.
  11. https://www.foxnews.com/sports/deion-sanders-center-religion-controversy-months-colorado-starts-2023-season
  12. She’s Venezuelan not Brazilian. Maybe it’s your fetish but that ass crack is going to be hairy as fuck! Calm down and get to work!
  13. Out as soon as I heard the text to speech narration.
  14. How old is old? I “got” it but didn’t think it was Oscar worthy.
  15. I guess they have time they need to fill, but the Will Smith/Chris Rock bit is hard to take. I’m fairly sure I can ask any random person in HEB to do a Will Smith impression and it would at least be as good as this! I’m getting to really dread the door knock. I gave up on Saturday Night Live a long time ago, so I had no idea who Jay Pharaoh is.
  16. Picture doesn’t do this justice. Guy yelled at my kid for taking this photo.
  17. Question. I grew up on an Oklahoma ranch that went away after my grandfather passed and the land was divided between too many greedy dumbasses. Do any of you think there’s any way possible that someone without significant family land could afford to begin really farming or ranching from scratch these days? Not talking an internet billionaire or some 12 acre boutique overgrown pepper garden calling itself a farm, but just some kid with an ag degree that’s interested in a farm or ranch lifestyle? I honestly think those days are long gone.
  18. You do realize that 96% of the the water on earth is Saltwater. Raising the water level with the amount of fresh water to cover the majority of inhabited land wouldn’t be a drop in the bucket. But whatever
  19. Yeah, yeah, I’m an exclusionary asshole… but the LGBTQ population is a little over 7% in the US. Why does it seem way more than half the commercials I see feature gay folk kissing? BTW I have gay people in my immediate family. (And I have a black friend too!!!)
  20. Look at a used golf cart. It tops out around 20 mph, you could flip it on its side but you’d have to really try, and you can use it for stuff when they aren’t. My 10 year old drives the heck out of ours (electric) around the beach without issue. Technically it’s against the law for someone under 16 to drive it on the streets, but the Deputies so far have turned a blind eye.
