  1. Brewer is a senior so I reckon it's his ball for the rest of the day. I really expected to see Bohannon more this season, I think he's more of the type of QB that would fit Fedora's O and Charlie hasn't been very effective this year. Whatever, it's been a season of meh.
  2. I didn't say BOTH teams. It's still a low scoring affair. For Baylor. No defense, no offense, bad, bad, bad. At least it's nice out today.
  3. Both squads are at about half strength, I expect a lot of slop in a low scoring affair.
  4. There's only two things I really hate in life. People who are intolerant of other people's beers. And the Dutch.
  5. Damn, somebody just up and abandoned a perfectly good church. Some value in a lot of those furnishings in there. Saw a guy with a truckload of pews years ago that he'd salvaged, he was selling them to the lady that runs the shabby chic store downtown (not Joann Gaines). Got a good bit for each of those. I don't think they were quite as long as the ones in your picture though, more easily adaptable to be repurposed if they're shorter I think. Nice wood either way though.
  6. If your bacteria are eating up 8ppm you're in fine shape. I would dose to roughly 4-5ppm and then check daily until it went to 0. Rinse and repeat until they were eating up that dose in less than a day. Plenty safe at that point to start adding livestock. I've probably got 40 or so of the tiny Endler's guppies in that 20 long now counting fry, juvies and adults. It's pretty chaotic, they are not relaxing to watch haha.
  7. I don't get the hate for privacy fence. Dogs and kids can't climb it, that's a win in my book.
  8. Well, I figured it was time to check in here again. Recap: Started Keto in January of 2018 and weighed 260 at 5'11". Had some hiccups initially as I adapted but stuck with it. Averaged 25 pounds a year loss without doing anything other than the diet. Hit my goal weight of 185 late summer this year and have relaxed on the diet a good bit since then. I knew I wasn't losing weight and so right before Thanksgiving I stepped on the scale for the first time in a while and clocked in at 189. So I'm back on the train and just got off the scale and I'm still at 189. So at least I've halted the upward trajectory I was on. Keto ain't fancy but it works for me as long as I'm persistent. Maybe I'll get really ambitious this next year and mix in some exercise. Keep at it folks!
  9. They were terrible. We were going to win convincingly.
  10. Luggage herpes, those tags the airlines use for checked bags. You rip 'em off but if you keep flying you're just going to have to get used to the fact - you've got the baggage herp. She's Austin's baggage now.
  11. I don't think kids today know what a sonic boom is but I grew up hearing them frequently. Waco had an Air Force base when I was a kid and those bastards loved to rattle the windows from time to time. RIP Mr. Yeager.
  12. I don't disagree and I do not like the man, as much as one can dislike someone I've never met but I do begrudgingly respect the guy. I suspect that if I were to insult his mother he would have no problem throwing down. So while he may be a bitch, he's no pussy. And I respect that. But fuck him.
  13. I'm partial to the white supremacist biker gang money laundering scheme. They find an attention seeking bimbo that nobody could possibly like and trot her out (no disrespect to horses intended). Only they misjudge ATX. Has all the makings of a musical comedy.
  14. Yeah, but we still have Navy pilots, right? Advantage Navy. Go Navy! Beat Army!
  15. What level of ammonia were you dosing it to? I did mine at around 4ppm and with the water from my tap it took right at 5 weeks to fully cycle. But when it was done it was so ready. No issues whatsoever. I'm ready to see some skrimps. I've had a number of Nerites and like a lot of aquatic life you never know how long they'll live. Some have lasted quite a long time, well over a year. And others have done well for months but then suddenly died off. I think with the Nerites all being wild caught you really don't know where they are in their life cycle if they're of a mature size when you get them, other than they're adults. I'm looking at moving in the next few months, I've been here for 7 years now, and I'm already starting to plan and dread. Mostly dread. I may take it as an opportunity to completely downsize to just the 55. I consolidated 6 tanks into 2 and still find that a bit much on busy weekends. We'll see. I have plenty of filtration and everything is compatible so not really too concerned about overstocking or aggression issues but it will definitely be a full house if I go that route.
  16. WACO, Texas (KWTX) - The Baylor men’s basketball game against Nicholls State scheduled for Tuesday night at the Ferrell Center has been canceled. There are COVID-19 problems at Nicholls State. The Bears are working to schedule a new home opener with a different opponent for Tuesday or Wednesday. Copyright 2020 KWTX. All rights reserved.
  17. Quoting the Dalai Lama here, "the path through the rough is never obvious". Does he have a twitter account? Might be a good follow.
  18. 2nd mention of the wet market. We may be onto something.
  19. I should probably start giving out 1 star ratings along with a generous tip. Just to fuck with the system.
  20. I finished "Typee" last night. Ending came up out of nowhere, opportunity presented itself and bam! the guy's adventure was suddenly over. It's a good story, just a narrative really without a lot of action moving the story though there is a storyline. Mostly descriptive of the life and ways of the Marquesan's of the mid1800's. Next up is "Omoo", the tale of the companion who escaped early on in "Typee" and what became of him.
  21. I like the color version. Maybe even a bit more muted though, a bit of a pastel treatment like some faded photo from long ago.
