  1. Three Corpus favorites I grew up with in the 60's-Snapka's drive in has great hamburgers, Panjo's pizza does great pie, and Chicken Shack has the best fried chicken on the coast.
  2. Today I would have celebrated my son's 38th birthday but he didn't live to see it. Instead, I did a zoom meeting at 7am, took my wife for her doctor's appointment, then had a CT myself. It has been a real struggle to not think about all of the things we had planned to do after my retirement in January. Was asked to do the steps in September for a group and know I will get more out of the opportunity than those present-like always. My 69 year old heart aches today but I am doing the best I can to focus on the times we shared together in sobriety and be grateful. Until I pass, there will be a longing to see him, speak to him, hug him, that will not be satisfied, but I will find peace through the program and service that brought him back into my life in the first place.
  3. Still in business on Camp Bowie here in Cowtown. Cheese enchilada dinner special on Wednesday gets me twice a month, but many other excellent options in FW.
  4. We were under consideration six times before we got the two that were meant for us on January 23. Persistence, patience, and prayer worked in this situation as it does in other areas of life where applied. You're due and the next one is coming soon I'm sure.
  5. It was the .15 hamburgers at Burger Chef for moi in Corpus Christi. I met the owner of that restaurant later in Fort Worth who became a Miller distributor.
  6. In the 90's the BK on Camp Bowie here in Cowtown used to have Whoppers with cheese for $1 on Sunday nights. The price was what I used to pay when in high school, so it made the burger taste better. Haven't eaten at BK this century and the one I frequented back then is no longer there.
  7. Married my wife at the San Luis in Galveston in 2004, which is next door to the Rainforest Cafe. Previous comments like yours kept us from going to that carnival atmosphere vomitorium. We were lucky during the outdoor ceremony that the volcano didn't erupt like our digestive systems would have if we had eaten there.🤮
  8. TRE is a good ride-but DART can sometimes screw this idea all to hell. We missed nearly all of the first quarter of 2006 due to a DART breakdown.
  9. Nice to know I won't necessarily have to wade through a group of information seeking operations who don't have what I want in the first place.
  10. Thanks for this helpful review. We are scheduled to travel by train from Montreal to Halifax in July next year and will be looking into this insurance company.
  11. Without help it is too much for us. Anything I can do to help here, let me know.
  12. Doppleganger to my Bailey-in my profile pic and in heaven today.
  13. It's one step below double secret probation as mentioned in Animal House. Obviously, the rapes and sexual assaults were caused by Jezebels paid by Sodom and Gomorrah in Austin to lead their sanctified athletes down to the gates of sheol and bring the wrath of the NCAA down on this God fearing institution.😁
  14. All great places from my past as well. The Miller brewery used to give hospitality tours with samples at the end. It was not unusual for several of us young men to skip the tour and end up in the serving area to knock back a few free beers and then go to Bill Martin's and pound the hush puppies and seafood. Believe the steakhouse you referred to was the Red Rooster according to the wife who grew up here.
  15. Thanks for sharing these pics of heaven on earth-you are one fortunate man to have had this experience. Gotta live vicariously through these unless I win the lottery or an inheritance which I am not aware of that could happen.
  16. Yeah, it's hard to count the drunks in the closets in those states.
  17. Good doggo Bruno. Glad your face was the one he will remember Gatorubet because you made it over to the vet in time. Damn it's getting dusty in here.😓
  18. Reading this gives me the sad. My son died on January 23 of this year from a fentanyl overdose.
  19. Or a squeeze chute with pelota removal, though this douche has no balls to begin with.
  20. Spirit flight was cancelled so Frontier sufficed.
  21. 😄Southwest wins the have fun with announcements award every year. Kelleher's little airline is my choice whenever flying to a location they service.
  22. Gimme a dog's life if it's anything like the last three posted!!😁
  23. Man I miss the Carriage House restaurant in Cowtown. Wonder if the development outfit is related in any way to that fine establishment.
  24. Reminded me of the customer service rep for American who told the irate Karen that she would not be flying American and should fly Spirit instead. Couldn't help but lol.
