  1. My largest expense when I moved in to a dorm my freshman year was on lumber. We build an extremely sturdy frame that lifted the bed off the floor with enough room to put the desk underneath. I don't know if we had to buy bedding, but I know I didn't make my bed the entire first year.
  2. One caveat has to do with the capacity of the one executing the POA. I have seen at least two situations where someone revoked a POA by executing a new one and followed later by a finding that they were not competent to execute a new POA. The kicker is that a person can have sufficient capacity for revoking a POA, but at the same time not sufficient to make a new one - leaving them without a POA at all.
  3. Not sure about the family matter part of it, @hornian deals with wills and estates, IIRC.
  4. Had a fishing buddy this morning on Salado Creek. This Northern Cottonmouth apparently wanted my spot, so I move on after taking the picture.
  5. Spent the morning fishing Salado Creek. Lots of wading in the cool, spring-fed waters. Caught plenty of small largemouth and spotted bass. Only thing worth pulling the camera out for was this beautiful, Northern Cottonmouth. As he was crossing to my side of the creek when I took the picture, I moved on shortly thereafter. Also got to meet @Damor and his son at the local brewery afterwards. Nice way to spend a Sunday.
  6. So ready for college football.
  7. That looks awesome. I bet it would be good with some strawberry preserves, too.
  8. I guess ignorance is bliss - I don't know of any features that I need behind a subscription paywall. I don't even use the free account. Just the app with whatever podcasts I want. I listen to podcasts almost exclusively when driving - probably 4 to 6 hours a week.
  9. When I went to elementary school in VA in the late 70's I have no idea what time we started - get your ass up, eat Captain Crunch, get on the bus, go to school. I do remember the school year going until mid-June - fuck that.
  10. I use Pocket Casts and have for years. I have about 15 podcasts and it shows each time a new episode is dropped. You can toggle on and off auto download for new podcasts.
  11. This thread is not complete without @Nuge's input.
  12. Was that in Taiwan or your Mrs. Brat's hometown of Taylor?
  13. I cracked up each time they identified those guys as "creek people" under their name when talking. And why the hell is anyone talking to anyone, even 20-30 years later. STFU
  14. I still do camera one, camera two every so often
  15. Thanks for the heads up about the show. We'll be going and was able to get the pre-show lounge tickets as well.

    I want our two points. Looking forward to the game tonight. ¡LISTOS!
  17. From TM: "The brisket is consistently smoked to perfection and is seasoned with salt, pepper, garlic, and Lawry's seasoned salt . . . " Yeah, that brisket does not look good.
  18. It was a couple of years before young Jerry started taking bikes off any sweet jumps, and the bike was slightly lighter.
  19. I had that Evel Knievel costume in about 1976. I was such a badass that Halloween with my costume and bike.
  20. I have a cousin who is an equine chiropractor. I can't imagine how much money you could make telling people that the horse is going to need 3 visits for the next 3 weeks, 2 visits for the following 4 weeks, and a once a week maintenance visit for the next few years.
  21. Apparently letting God take the wheel.
  22. Looks like an untrained dog, without a leash that was scared of something.
  23. I was thinking about this the other day. My favorite example:
  24. Good reminder: Long professorial version (worth the time): STFU Short and to the point version: STFU Friday
  25. Looking forward to it. Res Dogs was incredible and Ethan Hawke small role was great.
