  1. Oh, hell no.
  2. Weather was perfect!
  3. Different bike. His had 25k on it when he traded it for a R1250RS last year. It was there when I bought mine in October. And thanks.
  4. I love my R1200RS. If you bought that at RideNow in Austin and it's a 16 model, I knew the previous owner. He took immaculate care of his bikes. Sadly, he passed away last month from cancer.
  5. Fuel injection and being able to tune the whole rpm band was the big step. IMHO. And tire technology, doesn't matter if you make a million HP if it all goes up in smoke.

    Countryisms

    Fucked like a tied up goat. Vaccinated with a phonograph needle. You'd argue with a fence post. ( I heard that one a lot from my father)
  7. I recently switched from a valentine to a Uniden R7. Much, much quieter and seems to have good range.
  8. No, but only because she brought a stick of butter with her when she came to my desk to ask. I told her 1 1/2 and got the deer in the headlights look so I showed her where to cut. And to add a whole stick. Not sure what she thought it should be but she walked away muttering something on the lines of "That's not close to what I thought" I saw the other half stick go in the mashed potatoes.
  9. Canes has the best chicken fingers/tenders/parts locally, but no gravy or jalapenos makes it hard to frequent.
  10. Holiday cooking and fractions.... "How much is two 3/4 sticks of butter?"
  11. This. Bought them by mistake, didn't know such a thing existed. No more double wrapping in foil and hoping for the best in the freezer.
  12. I'm now a card carrying capitalist, I will never separate before slicing again. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Easier and better.
  13. Wait, I'm not supposed to separate before slicing?
  14. Foodsaver v3460. Several years old. These bags. Bought by mistake some time ago. They work better than I expected.
  15. I won't have time Wednesday so Saturday was smoking day. Start with this Do a little of this End up with this
  16. How have I never heard of this?
  17. I prefer Eilenberger to Collin Street. https://www.eilenbergerbakery.com/
  18. Last week driving, phone rings. Have you been in a wreck? Not yet, why? We heard at work there was a bad wreck on 35 South. Oh, thanks. Whereabouts? I told you. 35 South. Ummmm, can you narrow it down a little? 35 runs from Canada to Mexico. 35 South, I told you. I don't know what else you want. Ok, thanks. I'll be on the lookout.
  19. Opens the front door so the cat can look outside. Never mind it's 110 and the cat is in the bedroom.
  20. I don't suppose I've ever paid any attention to the name of the shop, I've always called it "Sam's". I think you're right, "Diamond Point" as opposed to "Diamondpoint". I'm guessing he doesn't return ☹️. Took lots of HS dates to the theater there back in the day.
  21. Sam claims to be the first tenant at Diamondpoint. He cut my hair twice in one day back in the 70's when I was trying to register for the next school year at Midway. Only charged me the first time.
  22. I miss Flores too. Have you tried Helberg? The day we went, the brisket was exceptional. Haven't tried Guess, afraid of the silo crowd. Have to try it after seeing the post above. Never heard of Red Wagon, have to try that one as well. Is there any seating or is it to go only?
  23. I recently installed the Arlo Pro 2 system. Four cameras for about $700, tax included. Stupid simple to install. 1080 video is excellent, the cloud saves everything for 7 days for no charge. I did have to replace one camera that quit working, but that was about as painless as dealing with customer service could be. My only complaint is sensitivity, the lowest sensitivity still picks up the wind blowing trees. After getting 70 plus notifications per day for that and a bird on my porch I turned off email and push notifications. That's ok with me, I bought it more to be able to review what happened if and when the time comes. With more patience and better placement I could probably fix the sensitivity issue. I'd give it a strong 8 out of 10.
