  1. Bellingham should have got a yellow and be suspended for the 2nd leg.
  2. I just drank lonestar light that someone left in my beer fridge, so thread hits close to home.
  3. I assume that’s why she had to have the transfusion.

    As much as Dani has faults I’m pretty sure he won the ball back for and/or sprung most of our breaks. And I’m not sure that sitting in a low block and playing counter is really a great fit for what he’s good at.
  5. Same. Seems to be pea sized for the most part.

    Well, they dominated possession, dictated the game, and were pretty unlucky not to score more. Maybe I should’ve said we were lucky to get 3 out of the game. We definitely should have score more, but so should they.

    His work rate was fantastic all game but very evident the last 15.

    That was not 3 points that were deserved but I’ll take it.
  9. Not to be a dick, but rural America doesn’t have shit for economic opportunity compared to urban. Which means significantly lower quality of life. I have enough cousins in rural Arkansas to know this.
  10. Hate to be Debbie downer, but we are actually running out of the type of sand we need.

    Is that why I smell smoke in south Austin, or are the neighbors just having a good time?
  12. To be fair, you have to designate those zones as high risk to force people to build lower risk housing via building codes. Housing stock that is already there is actually higher risk and should pay more. Besides reducing fuel in proximity, not much else you can do until people decide to do work on the individual houses. Also have to hope they pull permits so shit gets done correctly. Maybe fund some grants or rebate programs for people to do that work? Goddamn I can’t believe I just defended insurance companies. I’m going to go take a shower.
  13. Yeah I had my 9 month old in the other day. Pediatrician said while they do the shot at 6mo to a year for kids that travel, the immunity doesn’t stick when they’re that young, so the kiddo would get the 1 year shot per normal. In addition sometimes insurance covers the early shot, sometimes not. I’m still waffling on taking the kid back to get the shot for 2.5 months of coverage. People are the worst.
  14. The bluebonnets in our neighborhood have 1 or 2 blooms. I also think the last freeze confused the shit out of the plants.
  15. Seeing as the CDC only releases data on Thursday's, where did you see this? I’m trying to decide on getting a baby vaccinated ahead of schedule, would appreciate more info.
  16. I always had a hard time empathizing with the environmental terrorism of previous years. I get it now.
  17. In practice I don’t recommend the manifolds, especially for the hot side. Adds a ton of water volume before you get hot to the fixture.
  18. My wife got tested for immunity during her last pregnancy. She has to go get a booster, as her immunity had waned. Apparently that’s a thing.
  19. Ok. I didn’t know Ross but knew a few that did. I also don’t claim to know the full story, but as I understand it Silk Road was a marketplace for everything from mail order weed (IDGAF) to hard drugs, criminal acts for hire and worse. Meaning it’s almost a certainty normal folks were directly affected in a negative way by his facilitation of this marketplace. And he was convicted by a jury of his peers, appealed and lost. Meaning he gets a get of jail free card, and those of us who live their lives by the rules of our social construct probably wouldn’t get that “do over with 650 million in an offshore bank” if we did the same things he did. I’m genuinely asking, why is that cool, because to me it seems a bit the opposite?
  20. Can you expand on this?
  21. I’m guessing most of the ones that survived were sealed attics. I’d put money building code is changed within two code cycles (6 years…which is fast for the industry) to heavily discourage vented attics in wildfire prone areas.
  22. Dewpoint in Austin is 10. Don’t know I’ve ever seen it that low.
  23. For carp? Sure. Bass, they’re assholes.
