  1. Pam said they do not plan to raise dues much going forward, just initiation. I am sure that is probably just a tactic to get us to join but I hope that to be the case. The monthly fits what the club is but if goes up a lot more it would be more than or equal the Hills.
  2. Ya it’s definitely gone up from when we inquired last year. They also told us they plan to go up even more by the end of the year. I can believe it when you compare the cost to anything else in the area. We went ahead and joined yesterday. Probably in the wrong order but I was just trying to get a feel of how the golf community there was. How are tee times right now outside of Saturday and Sunday morning? A lot of my friends in Austin don’t love golf so I was wondering if people are open to me joining their tee time. I am also interested in just playing a round of two per week in the afternoon by myself as I have been working on my swing a lot lately.
  3. Anybody a member out at Lost Creek on here?
  4. Truth. Lumber is through the roof. OSB, brick, pvc, windows and gas pipe as well.
  5. Why would there be no way to protest? Because of what homes are selling for. Although my assessment jumped pretty significantly, it is still not to the level of what homes are selling for in our neighborhood.
  6. These fuckers know there is almost no way to protest this year either.
  7. Ours went up $170k fuck me
  8. I’m sure it will cool at some point but Austin has had 21 corporate headquarters move to town this year. Certain parts of Austin will never have more homes. I do think the prices are a new normal. I don’t think people will be paying $100k over asking on a $450k house but I do think we won’t see much of a decline in prices and if we do it may be a short reset. I can’t remember the exact figures but I believe Austin has had 1 year of decline in prices in like the last 25 years.
  9. Ya the tasting menu is your only option at Barley Swine right now. They aren’t letting you order a la crate. It was $95 a head so $190 for food and and then $120 in drinks and a already included 20% tip got us to $375. Not traditional steak frites but you can get steak frites for $10 during hh at VY Steakhouse.
  10. Out of the major brands that aren’t just ridiculously expensive it’s: I was a rep for Kohler and now I run a very large scale RNC plumbing company. kohler Grohe delta moen In that order.
  11. Chicka Chicka Boom Boom Enchiladas are really good, it is not a regular spot but if I end up there this is the only thing I order. But I agree feeling like shit afterwards. Probably has something to do with the salt and the creamy jalapeño sauce being like 500 calories for a small bowl. That meal has to be 3000 calories.
  12. Around 4:30 had a quick downpour of nickel sized hail in Lost Creek. We have a metal roof it was incredibly loud, now I can’t go back to sleep.
  13. Florida man arrested for beating and throwing chair at child in doughnut dispute: report
  14. Went to Barley Swine Friday night, food was really good. The duck and ribeye were both really good. The cocktails were great as well. My main complaint is the price. It’s a not a $375 meal. We get out every other high end restaurant in Austin for around $200-$250 with cocktails.
  15. Going to Barley Swine tonight for tasting menu. Will report back
  16. Shouldn’t be something like: A hoe you must be if you can’t be the sharpest.
  17. It actually has a spare.
  18. Wife was driving the X5 a couple weeks ago and side swiped a driver side curb. 3400 miles on odometer. It has 22s with rubber-band tires. Both rims are curb rashed pretty good. It then became my fault ...
  19. What’s everyone’s thoughts on decreasing the length on their driver? I currently have a Taylormade that is 46.5. I have been taking lessons at Golftec and he suggested trying a 44.5. I hit a Ping G425 with a 44.5 inch stiff shaft and I was keeping it much straighter.
  20. These 9.95ers are pretty good at rankings but with no fall Cali football season, there are probably a ton of misses on the OL and DL. Until Campbell, Banks, Dewberry commit, they need to be all over OL and DL out west.
  21. Chili’s, Cheesecake Factory and Outback. They all at least have a full bar.
  22. You think Ross ends up top 100 in the country?
  23. Sam did a ton for the program and is a great Longhorn but by the end of the year Casey was probably the better QB. Sams shoulder was wrecked from playing fullback and he could not make any throws with consistency. Another reason to say fuck Herman the Turtle.

    Most Meals With

    I have traveled extensively for work and I would not eat 3 meals a day with someone for a week let alone 6 years. That Accenture lady must have been one real piece of ass. As far as meals probably mom or dad but have been with my wife 15 years now so she might have passed them, actually she probably has with COVID and us eating every fucking meal together
