    @Assman, what.. you don't want to take the family to the old DoubleTree around the corner from The Dollhouse?

    Dude, you are kicking ass at this dad thing.

    There's some good rafting out of Buena Vista too. We did that last summer. Lots of trout around there too.

    There's some high-tech mumbo jumbo PFM type stuff they do to reduce noise these days. Engineers have made entire careers out of quieting the engines as they get more powerful. Old stuff is loud. New stuff is quieter. Sometimes it's the most random sounding things like scalloped nacelle exhausts, etc...

    Your Mom replied to Tailgate's topic in Football

    I would guess that people arrested immediately for suspicion of DUI/DWI consented to a field sobriety test and/or breathalyzer and failed one or both. I think if you don't consent to that they are stuck with a blood draw as the only way to prove guilt. Admitting to drinking before driving is not necessarily admitting to breaking any laws. I'm not condoning drinking and driving nor suggesting Reid isn't guilty, but so far nothing he has said is prosecutable on its own I would think.

    I could do without Louisiana. Just make sure someone catalogs all the recipes for the rest of us before they all sink into the swamp.

    The positioning of them both probably makes it look like Kobe and Lil Wayne are making out when D’Onta’s laying on the couch.

    What kind of a referee wears gray pants?

    I have Terra Grapplers on my LX and KO2s on my Tacoma. It's hard to tell which performs better, I doubt there's much terrain where one could take you that the other couldn't. The Nittos are quieter, IMO. I'm a fan of them and would buy them again. Ride quality... to many factors to say. My LX with the Nittos drives a lot smoother but it's got that Lexus adjustable height control and the variable suspension damping... It's probably more due to suspension but it rides smoother than the Tacoma on KO2s with Biltstien 5100s.

    I did a couple hours of hiking part of the South Austin trails with a chainsaw and getting some of the bigger stuff out of the way. I was impressed how quickly people out here got to work on them. I rode my main local loop this afternoon and everything was passable.

    I bought 200 paper plates, plastic cups, and utensils. Bought an extra 7 gallon water jug to add the two I already had. Also having a chord of firewood delivered. That completes my apocalypse prep. Some serious fuck-money around here powering up entire houses.

    Serious street cred for this thread.

    Sweet! Make sure to post up some pics. I've tried twice recently to plan trips to Bentonville and both times shit keeps happening to prevent it. Still gonna try to get out there at some point this spring.

    What does that mean? 3 of those guys either had or are in the midst of very solid NFL careers. Maybe not HOF material, but not a damn thing to be ashamed of with those first 3 names.

    Definitely. I own about 5 of these and keep them in various spots where I might need a flashlight. One in each car, at the work bench in the garage, in the camping gear box, etc... I own one small handheld flashlight that I'm required to have for work, other than that one it's been years since I held a flashlight in my hands.

    There's also a variety of camp fridges that are the size of an ice chest and run on way less power than your home fridge. I have one in my vehicle with big battery that keeps it running for 2 days parked in the Texas peak summer heat, 3-4 days in typical fall weather. The battery is charged by the 12 accessory outlet every time I drive but will also stay charged up with a 100w solar panel. If you bought one of these camp fridges without the expensive big battery you'd still need a generator but it wouldn't have to be a huge one. If you would only use it when power is out and not on road trips and campouts then a generator for your home fridge is probably a more practical choice for your money. https://www.theoutdoors.blog/camping/best-camping-fridges/

    This. I drove from Houston to Austin Tuesday night. I was on 45 past downtown and I-10 to Columbus, all 99% dry as a bone, some ice on the shoulders and patches under and on top of bridges. It started deteriorating around Smithville on 71 and was downright shitty with the roads being mostly sheets of ice from Bastrop to Austin. I was driving the speed limit most of the way from Hobby Airport to about Smithville. 20mph max from Bastrop to Austin. The shitty conditions definitely lasted longer here.

    If you guys are in dire straits for water here's an option... My neighbor got a hotel room for the night near the Austin airport. They confirmed they have water. He's filling up water containers for several neighbors when they head up there for hot showers later. It still needs to be boiled, but it's something.

    Did you mean to post this in the Sugar Daddy thread?

    Propane space heater, propane camp stove, extra propane, candles, canned food and an assortment of backpacker meals, stored water (jerry cans, aquatainer jugs, 55 gallon drum...), deck of cards, wine and beer, more firewood, hand held coffee grinder. A generator of any sort would come well behind all that other stuff for me. Couldn't give 2 shits about lights, TV, internet, etc.. The only critical thing a generator would be good for is powering fans or swampcoolers in the heat, and if it's a heat event then the roads are likely passable to GTFO of dodge and head north.

    A lot of my coworkers were in the same hotel I usually stay at in Houston. It lost power. And the restaurant ran out of food. The following night when I was looking for a place to stay the nearest Hilton property with availability was in Lake Charles.

    I’m just north of you. Just north of Davis Ln. Wi-Fi still working best I can tell from 1000 miles away.

    Care to be a little more specific without giving away your address? I’m a 49er too but I’m out of town watching all this from afar.
