  1. My great grandpa was a paint contractor. Pretty much everyone who worked for him were drunks, but there was one he usually had to pick up from jail because he spent the night in the drunk tank.
  2. Played a bad game; learn from it and move on.
  3. I need to put some money on Vandy in a couple of weeks.
  4. You’re turning on the milk men.
  5. Unfortunately i’m even older than that.
  6. Burn her at the stake for witchcraft
  7. Is colorado good or is the big 12 really shitty?
  8. Looking at the renderings online, it looks like they’re taking out parking all down Congress because they’re putting up curbs along the bike lanes. https://www.austintexas.gov/sites/default/files/files/Transportation/Congress_Avenue_Full_Build_Vision.pdf
  9. Opening 9th would certainly help but won’t happen. They could lots of things to alleviate it but they want. There also aren’t really any storefront businesses down here: 7/11, Chipotle, Quattro, the bakery, the former quiznos. And with most of it being commercial office space, it’s not like there’s a lot of places for a storefront to go: old lavazza and old little city space come to mind, That part seems like a lot of wish casting.
  10. There’s a reason visitor attraction takes a hit: it’s practically all office buildings up here. Unless that’s changing, this isn’t going to help that much. It’s just going to be a pain in the ass for everyone that works at this end, unless you do things to make it workable, like turning Colorado back into a one-way street and fixing the fuckery that is the intersection at 10th and Colorado. Which they probably won’t do or are even considering (like not putting in a turn lane at 7th and Congress after installing the bike lanes).
  11. Yeah, don’t do it. But if you want to do this, first make sure there’s more parking available (since they’re taking out street parking), turn Colorado back into a one way street, improve public transportation, make sure the other north and south streets downtown can handle the traffic that will move from Congress when you do. Let me know when all that happens.
  12. https://www.kxan.com/news/local/austin/austin-leaders-reimagine-congress-ave-as-pedestrian-plaza-in-proposed-project/ This is fucking idiotic.
  13. If you’re going to do that, just change it back to ETSU
  14. Guess it didn’t help their fingering game
  15. Welp. Guess I’ll see what else is on.
