  1. dude, you have got to remedy that. he's a great man, with great music, and puts on a great concert. i've probably seen him 5 times live and that's not near enough.
  2. What kind of judges do you think Bloomberg is going to put in? you're not seriously arguing with gandorf's point are you? he's right you know.
  3. i'm in the minority on this board and love all their products. that being said none of them, nary a one, zip, zilch, nada, are worth their price point. my two faves are the estacado and the balmorhea, but the cowboy won jim murray's world whiskey of the year one year. he's also awarded the balmorhea once or twice.
  4. my favorite scene so far was last week when rob and parv and sitting on the beach laughing in amazement that they are the two biggest threats here yet aren't getting any votes. even they are shocked the tribe is letting them skate by. unbelievable. danni's insecurity got the best of her. she was committing suicide so they just put her out of her misery. she played a terrible game and deserved to go.
  5. that's about all they do. still worth checking out though.
  6. i lived in braun station so that side of town. i had dates with my wife at peggy's and it's a nice spot, as is fralo's and scenic loop, but nothing matches the cuisine of greater san antonio. southerleigh would be my pick of the restaurants you listed.
  7. agreed. bernie - too socialist, pete - too gay, biden - too alzheimers. i like amy and elizabeth and think both could sway a few independents and even republicans, and beat the donald.
  8. so you're bringing in this date from the hill country or are you trying to pick a place to meet?
  9. the cove maybe? fatboy also gets a lot of raves.
  10. so there's heroin in the box? am i the only one that didn't know that?
  11. i've watched both episodes. i like the show, for a non-premium cable show, it's not made too poorly. some plot holes but solid mindless entertainment/escapism.
  12. If you've got all day to kick around Thurs in Terlingua I'd enter bbnp and do santa elena at least. doesn't sound like your wife is much of a hiker so i would skip lost mines. the window isn't too difficult. friday during the day kicking around ft davis, you might consider madera canyon trail, run by the nature conservancy if by chance it is open. otherwise, there are some easy trails in the state park, and the scenic drive there, and the lodge is worth checking out also. yes, everyone sees the marfa lights. they aren't spectacular but are still mysterious and worth checking out. the paisano is a cool hotel and worth walking through the lobby to see the Giant pics.
  13. no joke. good stuff for a great price.
  14. Great first episode. Going to be a fun season.
  15. i would agree, the smart money is on ohio staying red. florida too, but not mich or penn. it will really depend on the candidate. the right person could swing this for a dem win.
  16. if tonight goes according to history, the hottest chick will be voted out.
  17. that's a pessimistic attitude. we just have to get out the vote in the right places - mich, penn, ohio, fla.
  18. i agree biden needs to step down. he is not mentally sharp. but warren? really stunned that she is not running better. if you look at the top three - buttigieg, sanders, and klobuchar, my vote would have to go to klobuchar. she has the best chance of standing up to trump one on one in an election, and would represent us best in front of the world. i'm extremely worried about trump winning again so whoever we pick needs to have the strength and integrity to win.
  19. i'm getting burned out on the repeat contestant idea. at first it was cool, because maybe they had a bad break their first time around, and they were likable enough, but it seems like they do it every season now. it's like they're trying to make celebrities out of reality tv show contestants. i'd just as soon the policy be one season and done from here on out.
  20. thanks for the tip. i moved away in 2011 so did not know that. i always enjoy an outdoor beer setting and their selection was one of the best in town at that time.
  21. its all conjecture at this point, but the main difference as i see it is that our society would be more civil. trump has done well with the economy and jobs, but that alone does not make america great. we are worse off than before he took office, and hillary would have done a better job of accomplishing the bs maga slogan. he has divided our country in a way that i dont foresee it being repaired. it would take a real leader (which he is not) with real ethics (which he has none of) to lead us and teach us how to have public discussions and debates and hash out policy for the future of the country. because he gets away with trampling on the constitution, running roughshod over the checks and balances system, grabbing them by the pussy, insulting, demeaning, bullying all those that oppose him, all the gop congress does it too. the president should set the example, and the gop is shit now because of him. the other difference in where we would be had hillary won is we would have more solid partnerships with our allies. trump has weakened all our alliances. germany, uk, france, canada, china, middle east, mexico, and on and on and on consider him a buffoon and a laughing stock, which makes us a laughing stock for electing him. they are all biding their time until he gets the boot. one last difference. trump has sold us down the river. i'm surprised the gop doesn't see it from all the dollar signs blocking their vision. he has weakened the endangered species act, weakened the clean water act, weakened the clean air act, selling off public lands, we're drilling and polluting land and sea not seen since the 70's. we're overdeveloping, overfishing, reducing the banking laws that went into effect after the last collapse. future generations will be worse off from the years he's been in office.

    BBQ

    Didn't see a thread on this. Brother coming in this weekend. Where should we go? Been to Mickelwaite, Stiles, LA, Brothertons, Valentinas, Franklin, Coopers, Terry Blacks, Interstellar. I'm thinking Leroy and Lewis should be next. What are some other top notch places? Is JM's place in Granger worth a shot?
