    Dead on balls accurate.

    Swung by Tejas Chocolate + Barbecue on the way home today. In addition to usual barbecue days, they are now open on Mondays and Tuesdays. Most of what I bought was for dinner tonight, so no picks. A pound of moist brisket, two links of chile relleno sausage, and two sides of carrot souffle (my favorite non-traditional barbecue side). Also grabbed a $20 full rack of spare ribs that was vacuum sealed and chilled. For lunch, I got the brisket tacos and bacon slaw. Brisket on homemade tortillas is hard to beat. Bacon slaw was great - something I'll try to reproduce at some point. Grabbed a couple chocolate truffles for my wife. Tejas remains on of my favorites - top ten for me.

    I'd be interested for sure.

    As I got into the heart of Houston I realized that I'd typed the wrong Feges into Waze. Instead of heading the other way, I opted for The Pit Room. Two meat with moist brisket, pork ribs, slaw, and green beans. Overall a pretty good meal, not outstanding. They have probably the most efficient barbecue line, which I really appreciate after spending too much time in inefficient lines. After 10 minutes in line, I was grabbing pickles, red onions, and my drink. Ate outside on the porch bar just following a brief downpour. All in all a good experience. Might try to hit Tejas on my return trip to Austin.

    If you dodged the incessant questioning about installing tankless water heater(s) - consider yourself lucky.

    One benefit to a good spatchcocking over frogging is the ability to add the removed backbone to turkey stock.

    Heading to Houston tomorrow. Staying downtown. Looking at either Feges or J Bar M for early afternoon. These are two that i haven't been to. Thoughts?

    Sounds like a great trip. Where did you go and who were you fishing with?

    These tight camera angles are infuriating. I'd love to see where the pass is going before it hits the player's hands.

    That looks pretty cool. There is nothing I found on their website or socials that mention it at all. We might go down and check it out after the Texas game.

    Nadja was pregnant during the filming of this season.

    I tend to agree. You never really know what was damaged in an accident unless you pull the entire thing apart. If the airbags deployed, it can get quiet expensive to put back together. We bought a vehicle back that was totaled due to hail damage, but that scenario is much different - no change in title, no change in ability to get insurance, etc. Used about $500 to repair the dents on the hood and its still in use.

    Now I have to go back and rewatch 50 movies just to listen to the music. My first movie in the theater was Star Wars - what a way to start (literally).

    Last trip to Santa Fe we didn't turn north at Ft. Sumner, but instead proceeded on to Vaughn and got on 285 to SF. Avoided I-40 all together - I hate that stretch of I-40.

    Aside on the issue of Greek life, etc. My youngest is going to Texas State. In high school she lettered in three sports for all four years, thus had plenty of friends and friend groups. She decided not to continue soccer or running in college - which led to her not having any friends when she got on campus last year. Her fall semester was rough for that reason. She didn't have any interest in a sorority, which is fine by me. I told her to check out one of the spirit organizations - every campus has them, they are social, and the members get involved in the university beyond just academics. She joined a group last spring and no social life issues were resolved. This fall she also tried out for and made the club soccer team. College is not nearly as social as when most of us were there. We kept our dorm room door open and knew everyone on the floor - they don't do that anymore (at least the girls).

    Data is . . . or Data are . . . Go!

    I had every intention of hitting up InterStellar this past Sunday and didn't. I suspect I will regret not going this past weekend.

    I'm contemplating a Jerry Callo rating method. Ratings will likely be: one through five Yutes.

    That's what I remember. I think another season of The Penguin would be disappointing. Maybe the next limited series will be The Catwoman or maybe The Batman II movie as mentioned above.

    I smoke turkeys whole these days. However, one of the reasons for spatchcocking the turkey is to be able to say spatchcocked in mixed company.
  23. Jerry Callo
    Same. Catwoman was mentioned in the final couple minutes. Are we expecting a Season 2?

    I posted somewhere up thread back in August. I thought the meats were pretty good. The sides I had, collards and slaw, weren't great.

    SEC Tournament Champs had a great ring to it. HOOK'EM!
