  1. The King Ranch isn’t fictional, is it?
  2. If there is anything more pitiful than a grown man wearing a jersey with another man’s name on it, this would be it…
  3. My wife tore off her driver’s side mirror backing out of the garage. Next, she hit the garage door backing out because she didn’t wait for the door to finish opening. For months, it made a loud pop as it shut. I tried minor repairs (new hinge and strut), but those didn’t help. Then, she hit the door entering the garage (couldn’t wait an extra second for the opener to do its magic), but that somehow fixed the popping noise. Perhaps I should say, “She fixed it.” Finally (probably not), I get a call when I’m out of town that she backed into the garage door again because she forgot it was still closed. She thought it must be okay, so she tried opening it. It got stuck about 18” up because it was off the track on one side. It wouldn’t close, so she pulled the release cord and it fell back down. She said it was ready for me to fix when I got back home, but I reminded her that her car would be stranded in the garage for a few days. I told her to ask our next door neighbor to take a look at it since he’s a home builder. He got it back on track and working. She ran off with him.
  4. As the crow flies?
  5. You have to appreciate the beauty of lines like, “As you wake up, you pull me closer, whispering good morning warm in my ear. Nobody could do that like you do. You make it so easy to love you.” And the perfect timing of the toe touch at the end.
  6. Depends on how close it is to College Station.
  7. That’s my wild turkey recipe!
  8. Just finished Green Lights. Talk about a beating (and I’ve always liked McConaughey). I’m on to this next…
  9. Everyone needs to sit down for this one. I mean it. Sit down. It gets real at 00:40.
  10. You want to be traumatized by 1989, try reliving the Texas Longhorns recruiting video.
  11. Yeah, that Nebraska guy was a real asshole, too.
  12. Tom Herman vs John Mackovic vs Steve Peterson Not sure who’s the biggest asshole, but Tom Herman definitely trails the other two. Tom’s obvious character flaws were magnified by his social awkwardness. The other two were just pure, unadulterated assholes.
  13. Anybody want to bake a goat-themed cake for Easter?
  14. Fuck bed bugs. We brought some home a few years ago (decent hotel). Pain in the ass to get rid of, but fortunately, they were contained to one room in our house. Made me want to start pulling a camper everywhere, no matter the circumstances. We now wash everything from our suitcases as soon as we get home, including the washable tote bags we use instead of suitcases. If we have to use suitcases, they get sealed in a garbage bag for weeks (usually months) until they are used again. It was a borderline traumatizing first world ordeal.
  15. Damn, AB. It’s like we were in the same conversations years ago.
  16. Looks like Bijan Robinson.
  17. I just finished fixing the bottom drawer on my wife’s side of the bathroom vanity, and after 20 minutes on the stone tile floor, my knees were screaming at me to get up, but they wouldn’t let me. My left shoulder was next to the sink, but that’s my bad shoulder, so I had to spin around and push/pull myself up. I’m whimpering cuss words like a pathetic child. I should have folded a towel as a makeshift cushion to kneel on.
  18. Yeah, that guy must’ve been on IR.
  19. A few years ago, I posted about watching a major cricket match/game that was playing on a tv at an Indian restaurant and concluding that none of them could play NAIA baseball. That did not go over well on this site.
  20. This sauce made in Golden, CO is good on tacos and eggs.
