  1. Headed to Greece in the morning for a bit over two weeks for job. Have work stuff in the mornings but done everyday by noon. First week in Athens. Staying in Plaka. I am sure it will be mega crowded--and that aint my bag. Any recs on places to eat/drink that might not be so touristy? I have dropped some pins on a google map for Tapfield and The Clumsies. Still looking for restaurants. And if I hit up a beach in Athens, which one (or two) should it be? Thanks for any help.
  2. The grapes or the pops? I'll save you the trouble futureman. Cue >whynotboth.gif
  3. Just got checked as I was waiting in line. The person behind me got nabbed. Costco Employee: "Ma'am can I see your membership card with photo?" Shopper: "Here it is. It's my son's card, but I use it." CE: "Do you have a card with your photo and membership info." S: " It's my son's card, but I use it." CE: "Not no mo. Go put back that pallet of post-it notes and that 50lb sack of organic cheese puffs. Then GTFO." Squib inching toward the self checkout.
  4. Bier Haus in Lubbock has damn good burgers. And they haves some pink margarita-type drink that is damn good if you can hide the shame of drinking it. But, yes you would hope for something other than another burger place in Port A.
  5. Leave July 7 for 16 days in Greece. Have an hour or two of work stuff each morning for the first week in Athens but then taking off to a couple of islands. Have never been. I assume this Texas heat wave is prepping me for what is to come.

    San Diego

    I enjoyed walking around the USS Midway last time I was there
  7. I agree. It's pretty good. "It's 7:34 somewhere"
  8. Damn good steak-and-eggs breakfast there too.
  9. Yes, I know. Just surprised that the audience for watching cars practice going in circles gets mainstream coverage while you have to pay to watch college baseball on your phone. I'll pay the $10 today
  10. Meanwhile, NASCAR practice laps showing on FS1. We talking 'bout practice. Is college baseball so non-consequential that the damn tournament can't get coverage? (I guess I know the answer to this.) Yesterday, I ended up listening on the radio.
  11. Greece for two weeks--Athens then some islands. Then stopping in London on the way back for 4 days because I promised oldest daughter I would take her some day. Technically, work trip but only have a few hours of work stuff here and there. Wife joining me for part of the trip then oldest daughter flying over for the rest.
  12. Yep always add other stuff to new orders but those two standbys get ordered every.damned.time.
  13. There is a pretty danged good craft beer place about 75 yards from the stadium in Coral Gables. Nice area around there. From Coral Gables over to Coconut Grove is my favorite part of Miami. https://titanicbrewery.com/
  14. Midcook Finished and pulled Resulting sammic
  15. Alright let's track progress of celebrating through fire and flesh the contributions made to our freedom. I am running a bit behind but have my fire settling in and will put on these butts in about 20 minutes. Bought them to make tamales at Christmas but then didn't. Tired of them taking up freezer real estate. Will throw on a chicken or two later. Before rubbed and then after the rubbening.
  16. Saw his last standup show the night before he died. He was out of his mind. Very funny...but blitzed. He had no idea where he was. Funny guy that had his own style.
  17. Ha. I have already laid the ground work for that. "Damn wife, I am tired of this junk laying around all the time." Thanks for all the info. I would have just thrown the amp in for free if someone bought the steel guitar. Father-in-law was an interesting guy--I have two pairs of boots that were gifted to him from the Texas Rangers (not the baseball team) with the TR badging. Maybe he hung out with Waylon too.
