    I don't know what it is but in my head, Gin Blossoms and Soul Asylum are the same band. Maybe. Sometimes.

    Well, if it is stressing him out, add another week.

    We had a 14kw with a 2400 sq foot house in Houston. We could function like normal although I would usually conserve a bit so we didn't push it.

    Every time someone says, "We deserve what we get" Nah man, F that. We don't deserve what we get. That is fatalistic. We deserve better.

    Agree and that's not unique to that venue

    I know there's a cost difference but when we did whole home in Houston we went with Kohler over Generac. If you can swing Kohler, look there first. Talk to electricians and they will tell you they would pick Kohler for themselves. Everything I've always heard is Kohler costs more on the front end but it more reliable, easier to maintain, better service, etc. I loved our Kohler... loved it. Would go that way 1000% again.

    I have zero interest in knowing how much you make or anyone else.

    I don't think I knew the Fall Creek connection. We went a few months ago... completely overpriced and very meh. Ron gets it, though and he's a Longhorn.

    Isn't Coltan the name of every other middle schooler today? Why do we need more Coltans?

    What is a reasonable time and who is the opener? I mean, the rail is the rail, you know? I saw Psychedelic Furs there two back from the rail and it was pretty kickass being right there so depends on how much you like the band. You can always have someone hold the spots while the other person takes a leak/buys drinks. On an unrelated note, tonight is going to be intense... https://www.loudhailermagazine.com/concert-reviews/idles-at-hollywood-palladium-in-los-angeles-ca/

    Saw two dumbasses at Meanwhile Brewing this past weekend in Austin... one wearing her blue Trump 2024 shirt and a MAGA hat with flair. The other one wearing a MAGA hat. Looked like dumbasses.

    I don't know if you make 70k, 190k or 1.9M but talking about how much you make is soooo alpha

    Anyone know where you can find a good map showing all parkland, conservation easement land, watershed land, etc in Travis County? This is old - looks like 2006 - https://www2.traviscountytx.gov/citizens_bond_committee/pdfs/Maps/Travis County GreenPrint Map.pdf I've found this but it shows only Balcones Canyonlands land - https://traviscountytx.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=d8b33239c2af46ab81442a1941e518eb Doesn't show watershed land, conservation easement, etc. This seems to be the closest option - you just zoom in - https://site.tplgis.org/NCED/planningapp/ I will say that the Travis County / Greater Austin's efforts towards conservation are really impressive compared to other cities in the state. Feels like the greatest concentration of conservation efforts to keep us from losing valuable wildlands.

    If you like Spicewood, check out Ron Yates... same owner. Next door to Yates, you should stop by the new Lost Draw tasting room.

    Both statements can be true

    If you haven't been, yet, its worthwhile. Has a nice indoor space today when it is broiling outside.

    Funny, I had two posters. This one was considered acceptable but the other one has to come down. Trying to remember the actress's name but she was definitely naughtier

    Group of friends had an extra ticket to Idles so I'm going to catch the show tomorrow night at Moody Amphitheater. Admittedly did not know much about Idles but have listening and it looks like it will be an amazing show.

    Who could ever have foreseen this.

    I was without power after Ike for 2 1/2 weeks. Then the ice storm in 2023 was maybe 5-6 days (can't remember) Cold weather power loss > Warm weather power loss and it's not even close. I'll hang out in my ski gear in cold weather. I don't care. I can sleep under a bunch of blankets and in warm clothing. Pizza over and grill work the same in cold as in warm weather. Not much you can do to cool off in the summer without power. Nighttime is pure misery. Oh... and when cold weather is on the horizon, you can buy a half cord of wood to have on hand if you need it. Can't stockpile ice.

    Man, I've heard crazy stories of how high ranking former Iranian officials were hunted down and executed. I'll leave it at that but pretty insane stuff. I've had many Persian friends and acquaintances over the years and have always felt like there is an odd Persian/Italian similarity specifically in the non-Muslim community.

    That looks like it sucks. Actually working on the back table on the back porch. 11 AM and still feels reasonable. By noon I'll have to turn on the ceiling fan above me but I seem to get a good southern breeze to blow in the backyard and we have lots of shade. This summer gonna suck, though.
