  1. From the Houston Food Bank, where I will quick giving a fuck about good deeds in time to FIGHT!
  2. Dr. Kenneth Cooper pretty much invented the field of aerobics.
  3. It is not a lot. Recipe I flagged online would add just 2 Tbsp of mayo to your recipe. Maybe I'll do the same - split your base recipe and add 1 Tbsp mayo to one of the portions.
  4. Many recipes I see on-line include some mayo. Have you tried and eliminated that by choice, or not tried it?
  5. So, (1) chill game thread, or (2) we are doomed?
  6. So, I’m guessing you don’t homegrown $10 tomatoes….
  7. Some channel guides were late to update. Yesterday, the Directv Stream guide showed other programming on Saturday. Today, the games are first round games are listed for all of TBS/TNT/TruTV. Same broadcast on multiple channels. ESPN broadcast "talent." Would not be surprising if also ABC/ESPN camera and production.
  8. Dobie was totally locked down for winter break in my era (76-80).

    Interesting that ticket presale ends Friday - a 10 day base price period, without any seeming limit on the number sold at that price. It was not that long ago that "early bird tickets," at the lowest tier price, sold out within a few hours of going on sale.
  10. My Highland Park mother-in-law was a very knowledgeable collector, who acquired some valuable pieces that appreciated nicely during her lifetime. Unfortunately, they also depreciated not nicely during her closer to death lifetime. The appraiser hired by her executor son during probate bluntly said "nobody under 50 wants brown furniture." We are very happy with the pieces that worked in our respective houses, but the estate pretty much gave away the rest....
  11. I am not concerned that they have not planned their life at age 17. I am interested in consulting with a private counselor to help them choose some good options, based on a variety of factors defined by parents (e.g., budget) and them (e.g., geography, school size).
  12. Probate in Texas is neither expensive nor a pain in the ass. And, with the advent of affidavits in lieu of inventory, the contents of a probated estate are no longer public record. There are not many people in Texas who need revocable living trusts instead of traditional wills. A (pour-over) will that puts everything into your trust upon death can only do so by being probated. But, the revocable living trust you do now (that basically doubles your aggregate estate planning and probate expense) gets you a pretty leatherette binder....
  13. Late to the party, but looking for a college counselor for HS Juniors, who are behind the curve on figuring out where they want to undergraduate party while procrastinating further on what to do with their lives. Mrs. Tonesky has been working on this, but just got a "we're full for this cycle" letter, and has no plan B or C.... Any recommended college counselors based on relatively recent personal experience?

    2025 ACL

    Same; Weekend 1. Price is the same as last year, with exception charging a nominal fee for basic USPS delivery, which has historically been included in the ticket price. Still an incredible deal regardless of the lineup. There are guaranteed to be a handful of bands I know and like, and another handful I discover on Spotify in the weeks leading up to ACL.
  16. I had side stage hospitality wrist bands this year and was surprised/disappointed to find a cash bar. I suspect that is more monetization by Live Nation, which purchased a majority interest in C3 in 2004. ACL Fest is doing just fine, but there is always more money to leech.
  17. I googled and could not find anything published, but it seems to usually be the second Saturday of October.
  18. So, 2025 dates announced: 10/3-10/5 and 10/10-10/12. Is it more likely that TX-OU will be weekend 2 - 10/11?
  19. Too fucking bad swing state assholes - I’m saving my limited empathy resources for Trump’s “innocent” victims.
