  1. Yeah, I mean this is really good news!
  2. I finally read the article and, man, I hope that whole crew all talks to each other and collectively agrees to F off to somewhere else. I mean, the list of names tells me I am very supportive of them leaving including some D-bag who calls himself Lucky Blue Smith. Oh... and how I know Tim Dillon does not know a thing about Austin, "'It's not the live music capital of America. It's three heroin addicts busking with guitars. There's zero talent here in any capacity,' he raged." What a total moron.
  3. It is written
  4. Jackhole left four years ago. WTF
  5. We were out there jumping off of a dock into Lake Austin yesterday. The water is still looking browner than usual but hopefully that clears up soon. Was super choppy on Sunday... boat traffic + the wind really kicking up.
  6. Congratulations on becoming a member of the annoying "Old Austin" crowd
  7. Hello. As your resident Italian I would like to remind you that Gianni Infantino is Swiss.
  8. Be sure to tell your friends
  9. Found this band while digging through a playlist. Guess they played last night at Hot Summer Nights
  10. I guess the cat was out of the bag by July... I mean WTF...
  11. "our"? I liked Hacksaw Duggan and Rowdy Roddy Piper. Hogan always seemed mainstream and super cheesy. HE felt corporate so I never liked him. Found more reasons not to like him later.
  12. So who is the first one to go check out the cliffs at Pace Bend? Need to know if I'm going to get impaled on a newly submerged sycamore.
  13. The locals are pissed and that's why I said no Italian is paying that amount. I mean, for Italy, 28 Euros was not cheap. Now its absurd.
  14. I mean Puglia Is awesome. Alberobello Is very much with visiting and Salento has beautiful water/beaches.
  15. Yeah, that's a big hole for that town. Little store, great BBQ. That sucks. Would love to go back and rent a cabin in Camp Wood. Definitely can't visit there without bringing a buttload of supplies.
  16. Not to mention the cable car prices have gotten insane. Maybe they've jacked up the prices to keep tourism down though clearly not working. Probably more to make a ton of money will they can. No Italian is paying that without having something like a Supersummer pass. 2013... today...
  17. Which one. Last time we stayed there, the only thing open midweek was King's Texas Smokehouse. Looks like it is now closed. Not many food options in that dot on a map.
  18. On a side note, was curious about one of the places we like near Camp Wood. Looks like the cabins are just outside of the 100 year flood plain (which honestly does not mean much these days) as you can see below: But what I found interesting is twofold: 1) Data / flood maps that look incredibly outdated 2) Entire sections where there is no digital data available. See the actual town of Camp Wood:
  19. PSG? Was Donnarumma there?
  20. The local solution, for now, as Seceda's pastoral vibe gets ruined. Not sure this solves anything. Maybe make it only accessible to hikers. https://www.rainews.it/tgr/trento/articoli/2025/07/seceda-tornello-overtourism-pedaggio-dolomiti-7c8b4460-1f46-4e8c-852c-c2f162285e1b.html
  21. Below you'll see three pictures I took around 2014 from Seceda in Ortisei... so calm and peaceful. It was amazing. This was just down the valley from where I learned to ski as a kid. Now? this is the line to ride the cable car up. Dude... this pisses me off to no end. I loathe LOATHE overtourism.
  22. Sounds like what it used to feel like driving down 71 through Bastrop. Absolute devastation.
  23. ...and yet he wiped the floor with all of them
  24. Yup. Mine's an introvert at heart so I've seen how band helped him with a community in HS. My younger one is more extroverted and he's always had soccer (club and HS) but for the older one, I can see the big advantage with college band. BUT, again, the experience and the grind I think will help him get into college. We'll see.
