  1. It was a good spot. because it was in the middle of it all. Rosewood is really nice and bigger, but is also further removed. Could walk to everything at the Belmond.
  2. Such a great place! We stayed here: https://www.belmond.com/hotels/north-america/mexico/san-miguel-de-allende/belmond-casa-de-sierra-nevada/ Ate here: La Pasodita Lavanda The Restaurant Luna Rooftop Tapas Also highly recommend the Casa Dragones tasting: http://casadragones.com/visit-la-casa-dragones/
  3. Dark triangle head I think is a rat snek. Snek is a snek though. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  4. This guy crossed my path this morning while walking the dog: Texas Rat Snek? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  5. Anyone been to Sour Duck yet? Food looks really good and Bryce Gilmore doesn't play around: https://austin.eater.com/2018/5/9/17332012/sour-duck-market-open-photos-bryce-gilmore-austin-restaurant
  6. Plane graveyard and UFO museums, but otherwise skip it. You should absolutely hit up white sands either on your way in or out. Inn of the Mountain Gods is nice for Ruidoso and they a bunch of stuff to do: https://innofthemountaingods.com/outdoor/
  7. We went around that time. I think August and keep in mind that some of the restaurants close anyway since it is low season. We stayed at St. Christopher and rented a car through the hotel. I would suggest renting a car anyway. Allows for trips to the grocery store and you can enjoy all of the beaches. It's fun to drive the island.
  8. We went over the weekend and had a fucking great time. Friday Jazz Fest and meals at: Cochon Shaya Stanley’s Commander’s Palace Doris Cavan All of them were great meals and we did our best to mix up the cuisines some. But passed on these: Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  9. A lot of these questions depend on the time of year you are going. Summer is offseason and Winter is high.
  10. When are you going? Highly recommend Hotel St. Christopher. We booked on JetSetter.com and got a solid deal there.
  11. Exactly why I don't fly Southwest.
  12. Cutler and E. Manning's love child?
  13. I wasn't bitching about paying, just wondering if I can fucking avoid it or pay less.
  14. Details around the SPG and Marriott Program merger: https://thepointsguy.com/news/details-unified-marriott-spg-loyalty-program/ The new program will have one unified loyalty account with Marriott-style points, meaning SPG points will be converted into the new program at a 1-to-3 ratio. You’ll use this one account to earn and redeem across all three chains — Marriott, SPG and Ritz-Carlton. There’ll be a single new 8-category award chart with bands for standard, peak and off-peak times of the year. Elite status will be streamlined into one system, but you’ll still have the option in 2018 of earning toward status under the current SPG elite system. Airline transfers are staying, with all the old airlines available (plus some new ones) and a transfer ratio of 3 points in the new program to 1 airline mile. And yes, there’s still a transfer bonus. New credit cards will be introduced by both Chase and American Express, including a brand new premium card with fee credits and an annual free night.
  15. No, just a remote sales/manager (salary & commission).
  16. Looking for Brunch, which GW Fins doesn't seem to have. Thursday night - Cochon Friday - Jazz Fest and something casual after Saturday Lunch/Brunch - ??? Saturday night - Shaya
  17. 2nd Bar and Kitchen is across the street and a good spot.
  18. Actually looking for the same. Right now I have a reservation at The Court of Two Sisters. A bit touristy, but it is quintessentially NOLA.
  19. La Condesa is easily the most overrated and overpriced.
  20. Top of the lineup, lets go. Takes 1 hit to ruin this mojo
  21. So procrastinated for 4.5 months and sat down to do my taxes today. The outcome was that we have to pay a sizable amount this year (over $15k) and I wondering if I am missing anything. At this point, I think I may file an extension and consult a CPA, but I am not sure how much help they will be after their fee. So I thought I would consult shaggy Surly on what might help lessen the blow here. Details and Deductions: Dependent and Childcare (minimal due to income) Charitable Giving (we gave, but not much) Mortgage Interest Home office HSA Maxed out 401k(s) Property Tax Sales Tax Am I missing anything here? Are we just fucked because of income? Thanks in advance for you help or witty asshole responses.
  22. Some like call it “thread the needle” and some call it “force field”
  23. HEB does it again!
