  1. Designed by Aggies, the door is below street level. On a steep hill. That curb was doing its best for 100 years.
  2. This was how my morning started and it didn’t get much better. (Fwd from facilities) “Good morning Everyone, The storm last night caused significant flooding in the PAI 1st and 2nd floors. This is very comparable to the floods a few weeks back. Since the previous flood, the new drainage system has been fully connected, but the rain was too much and too fast for the temporary construction arrangements. The red areas below all took on heavy rain water.” The first flood mentioned was because the construction crew built a ramp over the storm drain and into Painter Hall. Completely sealed off a storm drain AND built a ramp for the water to make it into the building much easier.
  3. I call bs on that last one. None?!? Dooooooooomed.
  4. Their next post was “acres up to 8640 as of 3:28 PM map” I mean they could’ve just used the nasa heat satellite map like I did.
  5. Fredericksburg fire says it is going to get to 1631 soon. Evacuate now. That would double the size from my previous post
  6. Heat map shows substantial growth since initial 400 acre estimate.
  7. Any time a DBU beats Oklahoma it’s a good day.
  8. That starting point is very close to Gary Clark Jr’s 50 acre ranch on 150 and Indian Hills.
  9. There’s a few really nice really affordable Airbnb in Texline called Angela’s place. The cafe downstairs also believes in huge servings for low prices and everything I’ve had has been great. I’ll second the recommendation for staying at Palo Duro. There are some great Airbnb mini cabins right outside the park for a reasonable rate. You’re close to the rim and if the show is running in the park go see it. It’s quite a production for the middle of nowhere. Considering the small crowd when I went there’s no way in hell they made money that night between the production costs and huge fireworks show. It was great.
  10. Sharp and A&M too liberal for Abbott. I have been to the PhD project conference in Chicago and found it to be a great event used to talk to a group of high performing students who otherwise wouldn’t be introduced to careers in academia. No preference is given to these applicants. We didn’t decide to attend this event in place of another. It’s just a place to recruit students.
  11. Just wanted to point out that SMU wants to leave the UMC umbrella because the church is too liberal. Texas Supreme Court to decide 2019 case soon and may approve SMU decision to separate itself from the church’s control.
  12. Setting up nicely for Pablo and Allan (UT Austin) to win the Nobel in 2025. They were predicted to win in 2024 for the magic-angle in twisted graphene but AI decided it didn’t want to wait to take over.
  13. If we’re not sleeping on the far left gotta include the sports fan at really far left. 3,1,4,5,2,6
  14. Does any insurance cover opzelura for non-vitiligo use? It’s $2000/month without insurance. It works for my dishydrotic eczema but I can’t afford it. Just keep begging the doctor for samples until we spend years trying the other lotions the insurance does cover.
  15. I took my fourth doe of the season this evening with my bow; four arrows, four kills. Took me a long time to learn how and where to shoot to actually make a good kill. Was really happy with today’s shot. She went about 30 yards and poured blood the whole way. 110 lb Rocksprings doe. Now only 100 more to go to fix the “doe problem” in our valley. I’m not sure what the problem is because I’d rather fight the crowd of does than the idiots at the store.
  16. The second time this has happened at UT. Luckily nobody was injured either time. The previous incident was the loading dock at RRH just after the building opened. Same thing. And both times the answer will be “we didn’t account for high winds.” UT is now quietly inspecting other similar installations around campus. Including another one at the NHB. We should include wind in future design concerns. Apparently it blows on campus.
  17. Unlimited tamales and chile. #winning
  18. Can we add Bevo’s shit bucket at the bottom of the fall?
  19. He got what he wanted. A Texas win.
  20. 1-9 Aggy. Gameday is not your friend.
  21. His knee left the chat
