  1. I heard we got a commitment from Gary Cole, man
  2. As I wait for new commitments, I just keep taking solace in Mac Pimento
  3. Yeah, I hear you. We were there during the Tour de France in 2024 and I'm amazed I didn't kill a few cyclists on back roads. And I totally agree on the car size - had a big ass wagon last March in France because I brought my skis and too much ski gear. Parking that thing was absolute misery. I hated it. I really need to get my family to pack lighter so we can get smaller vehicles when in Italy. And, yes, the drop off fee to another country is absolute ass. I've always avoided doing a one-way trip from one country to another.
  4. Looking through some old pictures. Here's a random one... ...and a secret swimming spot on Lake Garda
  5. Can't help you so much with Austria and Germany. My sole experiences in Austin were skiing in the Oetztal Valley. I've passed through Innsbruck before and that looked nice and to get from Innsbruck down into Italy/back is super easy. Mind you, I actually look forward to driving in Italy. I love it. I mean, parking can suck but I love the energy of driving around Italy. I haven't taken a train in 20 years. Anyway, you could do Vicenza or Padova or even something like Verona so that you are near Lake Garda. On the train, how are you pricing it out? First class? Second class should be way cheaper and you can listen to someone talk on their cell phone for the whole journey.
  6. I've found that when we don't have our own car (if we didn't drive up) then they usually give you WTF they want and tell you, "oh yeah, this one's fine" and then you just kind of figure it out. I've driven over Mount Rose Summit Pass and Berthoud Pas in brutal blizzards, both in crappy sedans with suspect tires. I would say just go nice and easy. One upside (of many) of skiing in places in Europe is usually rental car snow tire requirements. Most times they are legally required to provide them to you at no charge.
  7. Shootings near/north of 183? I don't believe it.
  8. I will advise what I usually do... don't move around too much. Pick a couple of bases and stay there and take side trips. I swear some people's itineraries just wear me out.
  9. https://www.statesman.com/story/news/2016/09/03/afflerbach-mad-dog-margaritas-texas-chili-parlor-and-guy-clark/10128707007/
  10. ...and in the end I was disappointed to see the announcement, even before I knew how he handled it. He could have had a promising role here in Austin. Welp, don't let the door hit you on the ass on your way out.
  11. Honestly, I liked Livingstone Liked past tense Dude did not handle things the right way on the way out and may end up a Sooner. F that.
  12. Saturday was a stupid beautiful day in Austin. Combine that with Arch taking him to Paggi House for a romantic date, I think he's ours.
  13. Although I'm really starting to think more about Sirolo near Monte Conero...
  14. Darien, Connecticut is a natural breeding ground of absolute ballers. Parker... always dreamed of OU, right? Here were his top 5 from his days as a recruit:
  15. Parker seems entitled. Does he have siblings named Peyton and Preston?
  16. Was a nationwide trend Al JazeeraThe United States homicide rate continues to soar in 2021...'Shock to the system' from COVID, George Floyd protests, rising gun crime, poverty and racism are seen as root causes.Its also pretty astounding that the 2023 murder rate in Houston was higher than anything in the past 45 years in Austin. Law Office of Joseph Ruiz, PLLCHouston, TX Crime Rate and Statistics [2026 Updated]According to statistics from the FBI and Security.org, Houston, Texas, remains the fourth most dangerous city in the United States when it comes to violent crimes.
  17. Good trend line on per capita rate. One of the safest cities in the country. Not to mention that "AuSTiN iS ruINeD!?!" people ignore that Austin today has a lower per capita murder rate, than it was from 1980 - 1996/1997. I believe the 70s were worse, too.
  18. So basically Lubbock is advertising to the people of Lubbock. Maybe Amarillo.
  19. Well shit, go skiing just not at one of the resorts tied to the Olympics. Never been to Genova but it has the largest historic centre in Europe. Milano... been a few years... navigli area for restaurants, bars, etc and I'm always a sucker for the Castello Sforzesco. Meanwhile, looks like we will indeed fly in/out of Rome this summer. Just a few days in Rome to visit family and because we haven't been in something like 10 years. Otherwise, we'll then head to the beach. Most likely options are Sperlonga, Gaeta, Numana (other side in Le Marche) or possibly Argentario. Leaning towards Sperlonga or Gaeta depending on what I find. Haven't been in 20 years. If we go, first breakfast there will be a sfogliatella.
