  1. I recently switched to Geico and it was 1/3rd the price of our prior carrier Liberty. I've never made a claim so I can't speak to the quality of the coverage.
  2. I just switched my parents' car from Liberty to Geico. Went from $3,000/yr to $500/yr. I've personally had Geico for 12 years on multiple cars. Only one claim for a broken window from a parking lot hit and run. Super easy process getting it fixed and paid for.
  3. I saw these weirdos multiple times as a kid. Shudder.
  4. Um, we homos would have nothing to do with those delusional dorks thank you very much.
  5. I reduced my sugar intake pretty dramatically a year ago after high glucose blood work, then quit alcohol in January. Went from 177 to 155 pounds this year. I've been doing a basic dumbbell workout along with pushups 3x a week along with running/walking/elliptical cardio 6 days a week. I have decent muscle tone, but I feel the gains have plateaued. Come January I want to revamp my workout to increase muscle gain.

  7. I feel like the last few times I've gone to La Fonda, the food quality was way below what it was when I was growing up. They used to have the fajitas, for example, come out nice and charred on the searing hot skillet. The most recent time I ordered it, it came out on a plate and the fajias looked so sad. I haven't been back since.
  8. Rosarios. Sol Luna. Mirasol. Los Barrios. Guajillos.
  9. What's a reasonable commission for the listing/buyer brokers for a commercial property sale in the $5 to $7 million range? I've seen 5% total commission suggested for deals up to $5 million then dropping a percent or so for the $5 to $10 million range. If the buyer doesn't use a broker, is it reasonable to limit the listing broker's commission in the listing agreement to what it would be with a buyer's broker involved (say 2 or 2.5%)? It's a 7,000 sf medical building on a half acre lot in a desirable location in central SA.
  10. I came across a hole-in-the-wall Mexican restaurant called Susanas in Southtown today. It had 5 stars with 40+ reviews so I gave it a shot. I had the enchiladas verdes and they were legit. The family that runs it were really friendly. It was $8.99 for the lunch plate.
  11. I have the 40L Eagle Creek bag and it's definitely high quality and durable. The only downside to it is that it's a bit too large to fit under a seat as a "personal item" which is becoming more of a thing as airlines more frequently charge for the overhead carry-on. I flew United domestically a few weeks ago and the gate staff were enforcing the small-personal-item-only rule and charging those of us poors in the super economy section for larger bags. I'd say 35L is the sweet spot for avoiding that.
  12. I got the flu shot and pfizer booster yesterday around 8 a.m..and then passed out around 8 p.m. A little arm soreness, but otherwise I feel back to normal.
  13. I appreciate the advice. The fastest I've gotten to a gig on speed tests is 600ish mb. Is there a particular modem you'd suggest?
  14. That's nearly exactly the setup I'm looking at. There's an outdoor patio area so I'm planning to have an exterior AP as well. I checked with Google Fiber and unfortunately they're not in my part of downtown (San Antone) just yet. I'll be looking at other providers as well, but I may be stuck with Spectrum.
  15. It's for a cowork space, so the data type will probably mostly be piddly. But it will probably be a mix of types depending on users on any given day. I'm going to look into other internet providers. Spectrum is already in the building and bringing in a new provider may be costly, but also maybe worth the expense.
