    You were "conserving" your demand, though, right?
  3. jimmyjazz
    Yeah, that wasn't a tough call.

    Dr. Padalecki did a great job with my son's broken collarbone surgery. However, he's the medical director for Austin Ballet, so I assume he has a ton of experience in lower leg injuries. He sees patients in NW Austin (Far West Blvd), but I think all the surgery happens on 34th St.

    Generator dudes: I should know this, given my last job, but it's been almost a decade. What's the fuel cost per kW-hr to run your generator versus the grid supply cost (probably in the range of $.11-$0.14 per kW-hr)?

    There is a ton of road construction going on near there, I assume some dipshit just rammed a back hoe shovel straight into the water main.

    Assuming no 3rd party/candidate votes, that would be 55/45 Trump (males) and 60.5/39.5 Harris (females). Net is 0.5*(45+60.5) = 52.75 for Harris, 47.25 for Trump, or a 5.5 margin for Harris. (If I did the math right.)

    Thanks, I grabbed a table at the Downtown location.

    "It's the lake that's parked where I'm at out by the lake" is damned near Dylan-esque lyrical genius.

    Wash U is fantastic. My Dad did all 3 of his degrees there (BS/MS/PhD in Civil Engineering) and taught there for quite a while. Mom did her BS (Philosophy) there. My sister taught there (piano). It absolutely deserves the "midwest Ivy" accolades, on par with Northwestern, Rice, Vandy, etc. Wonderful community where the profs tend to be very connected to the students. Many of my HS classmates went there and consistently praise the school.

    A pretty remarkable 3-leg parlay when you think about it.

    While not "casual", I don't want to start a separate thread. My wife wants to go to Truluck's for our anniversary next weekend. Is there any significant difference between the two locations (Arboretum and Downtown), other than ease of parking? Different ambience, etc.?

    A Lamborghini in College Station would stand out worse than me in the next Magic Mike sequel.

    My kid missed this week because of a test. I mean, he did the right thing, but come on. Change the time.

    That's not true. I'm only one voice, but as far as I'm concerned the Rangers and Astros can pound sand after fucking themselves. You do realize a shit ton of people with high incomes have been moving here over the past couple of decades, right?

    Joe Biden has been POTUS for over 3.5 years. When exactly are the "globalists" taking over?

    The "beauty" of genres like this is that AI will soon render all those people irrelevant. It's what AI is best at. Algorithmic composition. I will be shocked if an algortithm ever writes "Crazy" or "Eleanor Rigby".

    It was easy, and great. My wife can't eat hardly any carbs any more, so something like a chile relleno (breaded and fried) is off limits. So, I just roasted and peeled a few poblanos and made a "lasagna" of sorts with some chicken thighs I had baked and panela cheese, along with a top layer of the HEB pasilla sauce along with a last second blast of crema. It was pretty damn tasty.

    Nah. Not even close, unless you're judging every "genre" as one single whole. There are a ton of legitimate artists out there in every genre imaginable. The business model has mostly flipped -- record to make money touring as opposed to tour to make money selling records -- but music is not dead.

    Sure they would. 30K is below median.

    Dave Grohl couldn't keep it in his pants. RFK Jr. couldn't keep it in his pants. At least half the married men in America can't keep it in their pants. You know who that's on? Dave Grohl, RFK Jr., and at least half the married men in America. Own your fucking bad behavior.

    Wut? Are you suggesting we rebuild Q2? Austin FC pulls 21K per match. An MLB team would probably pull 50% more people every night and do it for 81 games per year, as opposed to 17.

    Yesterday I complained on the (pre) game thread that my ears were being polluted with bro country when they went to breaks. I mean, I guess if someone invents a way to make a shit ton of money roofing houses they don't have to have any particular reason to make those roofs anything but functional, but I find the bro country movement terribly depressing. I don't even get the feeling that a Jason Aldean or Luke Bryan would feel any shame having a conversation with Sturgill or Jason or Brandi. They would just be proud that they have bigger investment portfolios. They're not artists, they're business people. They don't even sing that well, and they don't write anything.

    I'm for it. I'd put it near Buda, so Austin and San Antonio could both benefit. Maybe where 45 hits I35. It's absurd that Texas onlly has 2 MLB teams.
