  1. Loved that place. It’s what led me to here.
  2. yup, that was me and your answer was helpful. I will end up doing 4 WetSounds because of it. That doesn't mean I will blast it when I am right next to people but I want it to be there in the event I am in the time/place/mood to blast it. Similar to having a car that can't do anything near what it's capable of doing on the streets. There are still times and places where you can use it for what it was designed to do.
  3. I play A LOT of golf at what most would consider a pretty nice place here and just about everyone has a bluetooth speaker. Doesn't matter young, old, low handicap, high handicap, tournament, money game, just for fun play. We do have the rule of all the players in the group have to be ok with it and I have never seen that be a problem.
  4. It’s crazy but nowadays all you do is press a button and the entire thing shifts from one side to the other in no time at all. Then you press another button if you want it larger or smaller. So far from the days of throwing people, fat sacs, weight and all that around. On a lighter note, finally getting back to the boat tomorrow for the first time since I took delivery. Have all the toys in (besides the stereo) and gonna hang on the boat with little man and the wife (no pics) with a couple friends for the first time in forever. Really excited.
  5. Looks like 2 pairs of them, a new amp and a new sub is the way to go. Thanks for the input.
  6. That is a reasonable bill for that many line items. Maiden voyage is done and looks like one of the two best days of boat ownership is behind me. But, I do miss being on the lake. Have all the boat toys coming and will spend as much time on there while I can this fall. In re the thruster, I have driven these quite a bit so can live without it. But, it would be very nice when maneuvering in the channels of the marina where there is not a ton of room on either side when rotating it. Now, if any of you all know speakers, it has 2 Klipsch's on the tower and would like more up there. The Klipsch's don't seem that loud. Any idea if I should get two more of them (which are ridiculously expensive for what they are) or remove the two I have and put four wet sounds up there?
  7. That’s right, you mentioned your cousin managed there. Really, really cool guy.
  8. That's what it is. Totally not needed and an overkill but fun.
  9. Will be joining you fellow boat crew members after a 20 year break from these floating money drainers. Priced out a new X24 and realized how crazy they were so found a 2021 with very low hours and the right color scheme for quite a bit less. It should be dropped off tomorrow or early next week after service. It's missing a thruster which I would have added but I can live without that. Will get up more pics once it's "home".

    Yeah, I am thinking this is a dumb idea. I like doing 2 things while clothed, driving cars and playing golf. Both of them require my hands not be broken from eating shit.
  11. I am. I am sure it is about as ugly as a shit from a baby that ate too much sugar.

    One Wheel

    Does anyone over 15 have one on here? My brother, who is 50, has one and raves about it and now kinda has me wanting one. He came to visit this weekend and likes the thing so much he brought it with him and took several rides around the hood. Is this part of a mid-life crisis for him, and possibly me, or are they actually fun after the initial newness wears off?
  13. This is the truth. I have a law license and insurance license. It took 3 years and a shitty test for the law license, it took 3 days and a test a high school dropout could pass for the insurance license. I could do WAY more damage to others with the insurance license than I could the law license.
  14. That looks pretty solid. But, I would still take James Coney Island. One of the few things I miss from living in Houston.
  15. Damn this thread. These are now on their way.
  16. I leave the TV on in my office for background noise. Just looked up to some Torrid commercial that was for 10-30 size women....in bikinis. Fuck you TV.
  17. These ones about being smashed and get to live long enough to say goodbye to your family and then die after they pull you apart sound like the worst.
  18. After about a year of getting tired of hearing “I am so close”, something finally clicked the day before yesterday about taking the club away a little slower and getting my hips out of the way. Went from shooting 90-95 consistently to an 83 on my course with a triple and a double (cockiness took over and I got a little aggressive on a couple shots). My course is stupidly hard so really pumped with the 83. Might be more hooked than I already was and moving more toward the love of this love/hate relationship.
  19. Where do you learn when/where these things are? Would love to take the kid there to check them out sometime.
  20. lol, haven't done the boat yet. I guess that's another question. Do they haggle on a boat you order or on a slightly used boat? It will either be the X24 or X26.
  21. Nm, the above. Thanks for the advice. Pretty sure I decided on the place and lake which kinda dictates the boat. Now just need to decide on the size of boat but will drive them both Friday. I am impulsive.
  22. Now the question has popped up on which lake since I am not that committed. I intend to keep the boat where I am going no matter what and just go meet it for the day or rent or buy a place to stay. What I am after is a place with either a waterfront or water view town house or small house to rent randomly or buy, a marina with slips, a kids area at that marina would be nice, decent restaurants and constant level would be nice that is less than an hour from Bee Cave. The HSB resort checks all those boxes but are there other places in that distance as well? So far, we have Canyon Lake, LBJ and Travis but I don't know if Travis and Canyon have those options.
