  1. Burger King will be Postinos
  2. Assuming this is AA, they offered me $1200 to switch to this flight. It was the first time I was actually tempted to do so but the thought of something just like this occurring seemed way to likely. Didn’t really matter though as we departed nearly an hour late and then sat on the ground at ABIA afterward while the blizzard rolled in and they scrambled the de-icing trucks.
  3. It’s been a while but can we talk about the gypsie -I think this is okay to say?- situation in Austin? For years, it was primarily just the family next to Whole Foods at Domain. We all know them. But within the past few months there are families anlmost everywhere. Westlake, up and down Lamar, Barton Springs, Arboretum, NW Hills. It’s like a never ending turf war. Look, if you’re going to be homeless and ask for money, God bless you. But, when you have your infant and school aged kids (who obviously are being kept out of school by mommy and daddy) do it on your behalf every.single.day while you sit nearby and play on your iPhone then we have problems.
  4. I mean, I know it will change but you could almost not draw up a better bullseye for the Highlands
  5. I like their product but got dang, Urban drags down the quality and likability of BigNoon Kickoff
  6. I’m surprised how well CoA has kept the stabbing of a minor by a deranged homeless man last Thursday morning outside Seaholm under wraps. Nothing to see here I suppose.
  7. And here.we.go. Northwest Hills out
  8. LCHorn? More like LCAnderson, amirite?
  9. The unspoken part of that saying is that in five minutes it will be even hotter.
  10. Why do the tropics seem so quiet this summer? I know it generally doesn't ramp up until mid-August or so but still...95* water temps.

    Tex Mex

    You do, it’s Y Mas down the road. But it ain’t at Que Divino, at least not yet. It’s to be expected at a new restaurant but they had A LOT of kinks to work out when we were there. Some of the food items were very good, others were a heavy, greasy mess. The poster above who mentioned “potential” is exactly correct. Maybe after some time it will be where it needs to but I won’t be going back for at least several weeks.

    Pizza

    PF Changs or Dan Mclusky's was the go-to before AHS homecoming and prom. The Arboretum cows or TCBY on Far West for the casual weekday date night, although the latter was a harder place to discreetly feel up your date. Delucca has got their work cut out for them if they're going to remain. Big space and even bigger rents + not open for lunch = uphill battle.

    Correct. Juliet was TGI Fridays for decades. Estancia has been several things over the years including Bahama Breeze.
  14. + rep this is a great map. I had no idea temperature peaks vary as much as they do across the country.
  15. The commentary from you Colorado nerds is getting tiresome. We get it, it’s not 110° up there. Go start your own circle jerk thread and we’ll be sure to necrobump come eary November when there’s two feet of snow on the ground and the Buffs are off to a hot 1-7 start
  16. I got a lot of questions for the meteorologists who have 0% chance of rain in their forecast and then it rains 1.5” with golfball sized hail
  17. Yea, can Yeomans or Jim log on here and explain to us what in the world changed these past days? All we’ve heard was the well-below-average, wetter-than-normal May/early June would buffer temps for at least several weeks then boom, 3-4 days later we’re getting blasted by endless August blastfurnace and talking about a potential week+ of records. What’s happening?
  18. This show has taken a hard turn toward the extremely average the past 3-4 episodes. The only real enjoyable parts have been the last five or so minutes then rinse and repeat every episode.
  19. The lowest number in the entire state is directly over the Highland Lakes watershed
  20. Is there a way we can get something on the ballot this upcoming November to have the good citizens of Austin unvote this boondoggle?
  21. I love me some @phdhorn but I’m a big fan of this only-comes-out-during-big-events thing he’s got going on. Quite mysterious /LinusCaldwell he’s become our Jim Spencer of Surly.
