  1. Don't get me started on this shit. I look at my son with disgust when he pulls that shit. He's only almost 10, so hopefully his generation grows out of it. Anyway, screw the Baxter news. Sounds like Georgia may try to make a push, but doesn't mean he's stumbling...fingerscrossedandshit
  2. Went to lunch and threw some plastic for a minute. Caught a decent sized gafftop on about the fourth cast. Didn't even take it off of the hook, just threw it back with my rod and reel and everything. It's Slimer Szn!
  3. Forgot the Lone Star Shootout was this past weekend. I miss the old POCO days, hanging out drinking in the hot ass sun, waiting for that rumored 1K pounder that'd never come in.
  4. Jugo Maggi is in my michelada recipe
  5. Threw down on some gumbo yesterday. Smoked/BBQd some chicken thighs over pecan and used Pollok's pork sausage. Turned out nice. Also, a +1 on shaking some W-sauce into it. Literally, this was the first time I tried doing gumbo without it, and toward the end my taste-test was kinda "ehhhhh ok?" Shook some W-sauce in and it was $$$$$.
  6. Not a fly guy but was using a small presentation via small spinning setup on the Nueces and the larger guys were just so much more finicky. Finally had one shoot out of nowhere and bite on a lure I kinda made on the go. I had rigged up a small 3/4"-1" pink shrimp from a sabiki rig. Popped a small split shot weight ahead of it just to get some distance on my cast. that pulled him out of the underbankage.
  7. It's because everyone kept telling them and anyone else who would listen that A&M was at the forefront of the NIL game. There was a whole damn Houston Chronicle article about it, where the claim is made with absolutely no examples of how they were dominating NIL. It was a propaganda campaign, and of course dumb aggy fan bought it.
  8. A lot of good knives out there, but sticking with my Case tribal lock stainless for now. Has been a good knife.

    Can't wait for Lonesome Dove. Decided to read things in chronological order, so that's up next. behind Lonesome Dove, I'm assuming? What's your ranking?
  11. Have any of you seen any Orval (trappist ale) on the shelves at your local places recently? The only two places near me that used to sell it don't seem to be selling it anymore. Sad.

    I'm currently on "Comanche Moon," the second book in Larry McMurtry's "Lonesome Dove" series. It's not bad.
  13. FFS, are you that gotdamn dense? *EDIT: Wait, don't have to answer that. The density. Aaron Judge. Gunna go ahead and iggy this one out. You have a good one.
  14. Yah but the ones who came over in 1731 may be where our chili originates from, so let's cut them a slight amount of slack. Overall, though, point taken CLOAK ROOM
  15. BREAKING: English speaking country anglicizes words. Ask a Miller/Mueller about their name situations. As for San Antone it serves more than one purpose. Obviously it kinda anglicizes it, but more importantly it keeps to the Texas (And probably other places) tradition of making words less syllables than they really need to be. If you can get your point off using less breaths and effort to do so, then by all means. Saying "San Antone" cuts the syllable count down from five to three, and honestly you can probably say two, as most people who use it probably only say "San 'Tone.' Anyway. Hope to see you in San 'Tone some day, bud!
  16. Or: "While you're all alone in San Antone, give me back the key to my heart"
  17. Get your pata ready then, buddy! Me. You. Downtown San Antone.
  18. I'm just now comfortable saying "chile toreado." But most of the time, if my wife's ordering one (with her asada taco), I'll tell her to get two. She be mexicana and doesn't speak spanish to them either unless she has to. Funny story. New young mexican lady started working at this gas station next to work years ago. White fella ahead of me tells her he's getting the beer and counts his change, all in spanish to this lady. He walks off, I step up with my beer and she looks down and says, "uhmm, I like, uh, speak perfect english?"
  19. I feel terrible for having forgotten that.
  20. *4. If you're white and legit speak spanish fluently, go ahead. If you don't, trust me: they know the numbers. They know what "please" means. "Thank you." "Yes." "No." "Water." "Tea." "THAT SPECIAL SALS'R Y'ALLS KEEP IN THE BACK OV'THERE!"
