  1. My off the cuff adds would be Something from Little Feat, I think with the aged whiskey background, Old Folks Boogie would be good, But I could also see Rocket in my Pocket perhaps on the more consumption end of the play list. Both could fit! Allman Brothers - Sweet Melissa Stephen Stills - Treetop Flyer You desperately need some Herb Alpert for any breezy water anything in my mind. The Lonely Bull and Rise would be my choices. This is an odd ball one, but Junior Brown's Surf Medley, I think fits within your "on the boat" feeling parameters, but I bet it will bring back good memories. Otis Redding - Sitting on the Dock of the Bay Elvis Costello - You can go with Allison or Veronica Charlie Robison - My Hometown And Robert Earl Keen - Corpus Christi Bay My go to early AM fishing music for the longest time has been Pandora Herb Alpert station. For you age Brisket I think you would also enjoy that. I had to do a little culling, but for me it's an anthem to both water and the 1960's
  2. Yeah well!!!!! Thanks Obama!!! you mother fuckers!!! Don't post her at all anymore. But we currently have the most loyal, and least qualified Cabinet in American history. But what is truly mind boggling to me... Nope that's a fucking lie, not mind boggling at all. Is that the people who so proclaim their principles, religious piety, and flag waving allegaince. Have proven that they don;t have any principles at all... But that's not really a surprise.
  3. Hell with no zoning in Houston you have two 2600 square foot houses on that lot with smaller back yards.
  4. In a galaxy far far away...
  5. I have never understood this long term. I understand having a lock wear out, but I will never understand needing two keys to open one door. But probably most of the time they only use the dead bolt. Still stupid though. Not as dumb as the agent who walked off with the key. I might just make a second set and stash it in a personal lock box as a safety? Good luck on selling the house!
  6. Rekey to match and send him the bill. I actually used to know how to rekey the tumblers to match. Pretty simple actually if you have the different pin sizes. Honestly having two keys for entry is sloppy and makes a bad first impression. But of course the seller doesn't see that as a negative... I guess you have a great example going forward. And yes the agent is a fucking moron. I wonder how many other two key houses he showed that day that he could not figure out the most likely fuck up of his own.
  7. Plan for the worst, hope for the best. Sorry about the wife, and you never know. Health issues change everything. Luckily (fingers triple crossed) we are both fairly healthy, but as we age that can change quickly. There is probably some actuarial chart linking healthcare/morbidity and SS timing. Maybe I should ask ChatGPT? It did help me make $630 off $100 in Kentucky Derby bets.
  8. I have one of those zero years. I honestly don't know with my house flooding a few years back if I have any documentation. But I have some bricks of paperwork in storage that may help me. But we won't take until probably 70+, unless something changes drastically.
  9. Making dinner AND cleaning up is one of the sexiest things a man can do for his wife! You have a good base and have had some major rough spots. But focus on that base, and the positives. Your trauma was mostly mental and hers was mostly physical. As I tell folks all the time, marriage is not easy. And honestly despite your and her frustrations you have survived some pretty rough shit already. My suggestion is keep doing the little unexpected things. Like cooking dinner with the clean up!!! Take some small burden off of her not because you want sex but because you want to make her happy. Appreciate that she stayed with you during your rough spot, and that you supported her through hers. That in and of itself truly is a victory. If you both choose to view it as such. For women (from a dumbass man's perspective) little actions seem to carry a fair degree of weight. Extra cleaning, just a card saying you appreciate her, cleaning her car, doing some chore you have been putting off that you know she would appreciate. Marriage is WORK, to survive. Because marriage is not a linear upward graph of joy and prosperity, it is up and down with all sort of pressure points for failure. Money and health are some of the most usual stressors. In fact I think you should cook a meal of thanks for you both, for just surviving to this point. As a lot of folks might now be together right now. Just cooks a nice meal and tnak her for being your wife. Thanks for the kids, the support through you problems, and the grace to not allow your unkind words to subside. We ALL have our warts. Sometimes, celebrating just fucking surviving to this point, is truly something worth celebrating. Just let her know how much you can appreciate her and your relationship though fragile, surviving to this point. I bet it's something she would like to hear. The "It's us against the world" reality and unity to survive whats ahead.
  10. Ok - Dang. With that Barn, you do have the makings of a potential wedding/event venue, using the ferry parking as your event parking! Though I am having a tough time linking "war games" with a wedding venue... That actually was one of my first thoughts. Have you looked into 30 day plus rentals? I could see the place as a retreat for folks who would want to chill out, like writers or folks just looking for a recharge. The idea of dealing with so many transactions via STR has never been appealing to me. But 30 day plus rentals tend to go more than a single month in most instances. Not the same return, but a shit ton less hassle.
  11. Almost ran into a guy on an E-bike riding the wrong way on the sidewalk entering a business of burnet. The guy was fucking lucky I saw him at the last minute, and had room to let him b making a left hand turn, without getting hit by the oncoming traffic. Dipshit had on the noise canceling headphones as a dumbass bonus. Just fucking oblivious.
  12. Yeah, that experience probably did yield some wisdom. As a player you are a cog in the GM's machine, no matter what your talent level. Might higher character players have netted him a better NFL record of achievement? I bet he would answer yes, if asked. But interesting for Miami to start having a Longhorn pipeline. I would say from a player weather perspective, Miami is preferable to a lot of places to live and play as an athlete.
  13. That's what I was thinking also, regarding the ability to maybe have electric bikes or some other onsite transportation other than a car. It's a bummer you girls aren't interested. But I also understand that. Wonder if it would do well as a 30 day plus rental? But that's a hassle and probably only something that would worthwhile, if your daughters had some longer term interest in the place. Good luck selling it, the view is amazing!
  14. House looks great. Only neg I would guess would be the Ferry parking lot? But I love the clean look and the views obviously! And I am not a strong color cabinet guy usually, but I like the blue.
  15. Just pay for the full package at Chess.com. He can endlessly challenge himself with bots, puzzles, openings, tutorials, and games with different speeds etc. I play short 3 minute a side games, just for some stimulation. But you can improve if you want to fairly quickly. However, it may not be appropriate for a 6 year old, unless they know never to chat with anyone online. ever, ever, ever! But I could see rolling through the lessons and puzzles endlessly when I was an elementary school kid. Hardest part about chess is usually finding a partner to play with.
