  1. Here's how AISD is announcing early release Wednesdays in today's email from the district: You'll have to click on the first link to see the "37 Early Release Wednesdays" down at the bottom. Seems like that's a little more important than telling everyone that Juneteenth is a staff holiday. "Early Release" has not been defined. Maybe it's just 30 minutes. Maybe it's two hours. But this is the kind of bullshit PR that's going to get parents riled up.
  2. I have an 8th grader there. Lamar is our neighborhood middle school and my 5th grader will likely go there next year, but that's more of a result of my kids personalities than the schools. Feel free to ask me about kealing. I get the sense that kealing doesn't do a lot of the normal middle school community building stuff, like kids going to sporting events or have dances. They did pre-covid, but haven't brought any of that "rah rah go hornets" stuff back.
  3. yup, it's every single Wednesday. More Teacher planning time. I think there will still be more educational minutes in the year if they adopt this, which means either the calendar or the other four school days get extended.
  4. Proposed AISD calendar for 2022-2023 has 37 Early Release Wednesdays.
  5. Solid double horns down from the crowd followed by a fumble. Good job pokes
  6. Paul Cauthen & Vincent Neil Emerson doing the final longhorn City limits on Friday Guaranteed to be better then the game.
  7. What's funny about blaming Waze is that when I went to F1 last month, printed on the back of my parking pass said "Use Waze to get to your lot"
  8. Didn't something like this happen at a pride parade in Florida recently?
  9. I think no one really knows yet. My understanding is that boosters increase antibodies, which prevents illness from ever happening. Those wane over time, but your body still has immune memory should you get infected. When that occurs, it still takes a while (3-5 days) for your body to remember how to make the antibodies. You can still get sick, but your body will know how to fight it and prevent the serious hospitalizations. If you're somebody who can't ever even get sick, boosters are probably the correct course of action. But if you don't have any co-morbidities, you should be okay with the normal dosage. Of course, time will tell on that. I got a lot of that from the following Atlantic article, and it was retweeted from a lot of vaccine equity docs and scientists, so there's likely some of that slant to it. https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2021/08/americans-are-losing-sight-endgame/619916/
  10. Yes, they do. They're in the upcoming section and not sitting in my expired part of my digital wallet with all my airfares and old events ..
  11. I bought stones tickets for the original COTA show last year. Got a refund, but the tickets are still in my digital wallet and look like every other digital ticket I've ever used. Any one else had this situation and tried to use the ticket? Did it work? I'm thinking of it's still in my wallet on Saturday, I'm going to try it. Worst case is I drive out to COTA with their shit traffic and parking and I get turned away when it scans. Best case is I see them for free.
  12. Well, aside from AISD's mask mandate, what else would've expired at Official Stage 2?
  13. Official Stage 2 would've nullified the mask mandate for AISD. So...
  14. That wr has better touch than both our QBs
  15. This is Surly, do you think we're chock full of lawyers of neighborhood? Because we are.
  16. Is this the biggest win for Rice Basketball?
  17. Here's what I've learned this week from Surly: - Don't mow other people's lawns. - When you get to the back gate, turn around for candy or a monkey might bite you.
  18. Does that monkey have any eligibility left? That's the kind of nastiness we've been missing on the o-line.
  19. We got an email from our pediatrician saying they expect it to be approved and they're taking appointments for Nov 6th, but would do it earlier if it gets approved earlier.
  20. Everything about this story is awful and heart wrenching Tattoo the boyfriend with "I beat an 8 year old till he died" across his chest before sending him to prison forever.
  21. That would be impressive. Our (Austin) backslide from the peak of Wave 2 hospitalizations to the start of Wave 3 was 7 months long. The downward trend for Wave 3 started around 8/25. If there's a wave 4, I doubt it'll start in 2021.
  22. How early does the Waco Pappadeauxs open?
