  1. I want to try it again on a better day and when I say better I mean less fog and drizzle
  2. Black to look good with our metallic reflective helmets, brought to you by Nike
  3. And that's the funny thing about UT versus Texas A&M. They are all about that patch. I wouldn't be caught dead wearing SEC only gear. Lame AF.
  4. Quick, tell me a last minute show to attend tonight in Austin from around 6:00 to 9:00. Need to be out of the house for a bit. May just hit Continental Club or Antone's or maybe something random at HITW.
  5. 28-17 200 passing yards Pressure is on aggy. They are going to be wound up and play nervous
  6. I know who they are. I thought their game had passed but my boys are older now so their "taste" has evolved. Taste is a highly subjective word.
  7. Has anyone ever bought a GreenWorks lawn mower? I used to have a Kobalt electric mower which worked like a champ and it flooded during Harvey. Got a Black and Decker POS and it just died which is perfectly fine with me. I would love an Ego since I have a bunch of their tools but don't want to spend that much. Do not need self-propelled. Just electric. Ideas?
  8. T contribution to Thanksgiving dinner involves my secret Thanksgiving recipe. Takes maybe an hour, max Drive to The Switch in Belterra But a bunch of ribs and sausage Drive home Reheat properly on Thanksgiving ???? Profit
  9. So average of 7 wins a year at North Carolina. Impressive
  10. The side perfect guys are tools but they're pretty damn famous in a disappointing Gen-Z way
  11. Trying to think what I paid in CB last year. It was reasonable, I think.
  12. The Austin homicide map is crazy when you look at groupings of murders, especially when you consider the Sunset Valley one was one guy killing his grandparents (so not random crime but some nutbag) and the one near Far West was vehicular homicide... When you dig in the homicides in Austin, I sometimes wonder if the raw numbers tell the whole story and there's maybe less random crime than some thing, especially compared to other cities. https://www.kxan.com/news/crime/austin-homicide-map-2024/ January 1st - man kills girlfriend March 27th - child abuse April 13th - fentanyl death. June 19th - murder suicide June 25th - child killed by a family member July 1st - son kills father July 3rd - murder suicide August 7th - vehicular homicide September 21st - grandson kills 2 grandparents September 24th - murder suicide October 14th - man kills mother of his children November 18th - domestic violence (weird rationale on this one... https://www.kxan.com/news/crime/apd-84-year-old-man-accused-of-murdering-woman-dog-in-east-austin-home/) I did not count self-defense in the above because someone still may have died. Anyway that's 13 deaths that are certainly not random. Not that any death is good. Other things I learned: A 13-year old can be a one-man crime machine Don't wear a $100,000 watch around town Don't slash someone's tires unless you want to die Sure sure... Riverside is gentrifying but... Not all Rainey deaths float Some people die of "apparent gunshot wounds" If you are homeless and you brandish a machete, you and a buddy might die If you're not homeless but steal a homeless man's drugs, you might die Like game rooms and throwing dice? You might die. If you provoke someone who is on his way to anger management meeting, it may not end well
  13. Before the 2023 season... SEC home winning percentage: .525 https://aggieswire.usatoday.com/2023/07/16/texas-aggies-football-sec-home-field-rankings-usa-today/ We're so loud and intimidating when losing!?!?!? The winning percentage alone can’t serve as a proxy for the hostility and pressure from over 100,000 fans screaming at you when trying to get a play call in. Aggie football may have had its recent struggles, but by no means is the 12th Man indicative of a last-place ranking among the other SEC fanbases.
  14. Ahhhh... ok. I was about to text my buddy in Boulder... "18 LIFTS!?!?!?!?!?"
  15. I was told the Massive Attack was cancelled... https://www.iq-mag.net/2024/10/massive-attack-cancel-us-tour-at-last-minute/
  16. I think when I was 11 or 12 I would walk about 1/2 a mile to Sav-on Drugs by crossing two major roads to go buy baseball cards.
