  1. How did the portal not “work” for Ole Miss? In the last 60 years Ole Miss has finished with 10 wins ranked in the top 15 a total of 6 times but half of those (3) have come in the last 4 years under Kiffin. Ole Miss under Kiffin is clearly “working” and they are over preforming per their historical expectations.
  2. And when that fails… Assuming AISD isn’t 100% incompetent and packed full of low performing teachers, achieving performance metrics on a shoe string budget seems unlikely. There was an idea a few years ago to break up the AISD into the surrounding districts. But haven’t heard about that in a while.
  3. Cheap”er” seats for new grads
  4. Was listening to a teacher talk about this last night. If AISD gets taken over by the state and doesn’t improve (because why would it) then what happens? I know right now we’re talking about preventing the takeover, but this honestly seems like a losing battle with the current funding mechanisms.
  5. Yeah we used those years to move around until we found the area/price we liked best. Section 11, above the concourse on the aisle.
  6. My neighbors told me both are better. The lady’s family posted a picture on Facebook yesterday. Haven’t heard about the guy in a few days but last I heard he was also improving.
  7. Yeah they basically sent out the A team and told me they knew they fucked up and would make it right…
  8. Fuck you asshole lol I was trying to knock down a piece of debris with nails sticking out from a tree. They asked if they could interview me and I said no but they still fucking filmed me…
  9. Does any have an Austin newspaper from Monday that I could have with the story on the explosion?
  10. There’s plenty I can see. Which makes me paranoid about what I can’t see. I have a feeling we’ll be going down to studs but holding out hope otherwise. Yeah right now trying to find a 6 month rental that feed to Laurel Mountain Elementary. We have 2 we’re going to look at later today but both want 12 months and insurance won’t cover that…yet (until they know how extensive the damage is). We’re doing as well as can be expected. Wife is handling the kids, they went to school on Monday. We are doing stupid shit like sorting through piles of glass trying to find Legos pieces in my son’s room and trying to repair a broken light saber he just got at Disneyland last month because that what he was most upset about in his 8yo brain. I know it’s dumb but it gave us something to do until insurance finally showed up.
  11. Yeah I’m not a structural engineer but this seems…not good, especially for a 2 story.
  12. I feel so bad for him. Thank goodness he was at church when it happened. Probably the 4 houses around ground zero are all going to be proper fucked.
  13. Sounds like the neighbor I talked to yesterday. From what I’m told, his son basically save the life of the guy that was in the house that blew up. I am super impressed by the young man and am very grateful to them for helping out our neighbor. Apparently he yelled for me while I was pulling out my kids and wife and I told them who I thought was in each house and brought out my fire extinguishers…but I honestly have no memory of that.
  14. Wife and kids are at a hotel where multiple other neighbors are also staying. Men are taking turns posting watch. Got my house boarded up best we can. Insurance adjuster comes by tomorrow and hope to get movers out by end of the week. Still looking for a rental in the area.
  15. Ha, I wish, I can’t drink anymore (reoccurring acute idiopathic pancreatitis) last beer I had was the night of the Texas Bowl when Tom Herman mocked the Mizzou QB backpack dance. That’s a Costco sized Lime Topo Chico bottle.
