  1. To be fair, that elementary is in a terrible location. It is one of the worst corners for homelessness so I'm not going to say it is Casar's fault (or not his fault). Its not just a random elementary school in Austin. This is next door:
  2. Except Pinkerton's. On Black and Gold, seems like the general Austin consensus has been, "there is a place called Black and Gold that serves BBQ" ? I'd never heard of it.
  3. I'd like to know about this too. I understand him wanting to be able to get a progress report in before applying.
  4. I'd love to talk about UT all day but "Surly kids who can't get into UT"
  5. Or if your boys are up to it @Wiler77 go during the week. Now, we were there last night and there were quite a few people doing some kind of corporate event but its normally relatively chill during the week. Cheaper, too. Last night. Burger truck on the right. No more biscuit sandwiches inside but a "kids burger" which is basically an adult burger is $9. Add fries for $4.
  6. Burgers at the Butler Pitch and Putt truck (Gimme Burger) should get more love
  7. You're like the Imelda Marcos of wine
  8. yeah seriously. I'm glad I have boys because they have an assload of stuff and they can just pick and choose what they will need from their rooms for a dorm room. Not to mention most boys are not thinking about matching shit, etc. My posters were a variation of these:
  9. Out of curiosity, for school that feel it is important to show "demonstrated interest", what have you done save for the obvious activities like a campus tour, etc.? I had my son e-mail the admissions office last night with some questions.
  10. Took a walk this morning in the nature preserve across from our neighborhood. I shit you not... 70 degrees, dry and a slightly chilly breeze. Double-checked that today is August 25th.
  11. Austin. Nobody goes there anymore. It's too crowded.
  12. Sure Grandpa. Tell me another story about the Armadillo.
  13. I will opt for this instead
  14. Sat in the shade during my son's soccer game this morning. Felt glorious.
  15. I'll hit up any taco truck in town... I am a sucker for tacos, especially lengua, but sorry... not into "Enchiladas Suizas" and that bullshit. On a side note, met a client at Ski Shores today. Best view in town. Prices are stupid... although less stupid when you expense your lunch.
  16. Honestly I choose from three items: breakfast tacos, tacos al pastor or ensalada Guero so hard to screw up any of those. Queso does the trick and the pickled jalapenos are free and plentiful. Margs are still good and the beer is cold. I don't eat typical tex-mex (enchiladas, other goop covered cheese bombs) so their menu is perfect for me. Haven't seen a line there in a long ass time
  17. Man, I know there's some hate for the place but stick me at Guero's on the front patio with 3-4 chico tacos al pastor, some chips and queso and a Pacifico and I'm good. Move me to the oak garden with music and I'm good there, too.
  18. Funny thing is I kind of like the vibe/patio at JoAnn's... I mean, that's a great patio. Prices? Suck. And LOL... Green pea guac Queso with soyrizo ...and while its criminal to charge for chips and salsa, $6 for slices of cucumber with tajin? LOL.
  19. What I found amazing is that someone felt that was an appropriate way to identify themselves to the business community. Not to say that there aren't others that feel like this guy but, man, that is laying it all out.
  20. Actual comment/commenter spotted on LinkedIn this morning...
  21. Oh really? Close to me and have never tried it. The sazerac may be the clincher.
