  1. Spent a few days in Silverton, CO and had a few feet of snow up around 10k ft. Put a new set of Michelins on about a month ago to finally replace the OEM Dunlops. Performed wonderfully. Nice little trip and the 4 and 6 yo got to experience more snow than I think they were ready for, ha.
  2. 6 yo goes this Saturday. Texas Children's has their stuff together. Sent from my moto g power using Tapatalk
  3. Tuned into the game after having a nice morning/early afternoon and the first thing I see is that 4th and 11 attempt. Nope. I'm out. Not subjecting myself to that. Sent from my moto g power using Tapatalk
  4. Holy crap. Do you have a newsletter? Sent from my moto g power using Tapatalk
  5. A scientologist in a leadership position during a pandemic will have terrible judgement. Water is wet. Auburn took a chance on Xenu and this is what happens. Sent from my moto g power using Tapatalk
  6. At this point...Kevin Porter Jr but that's the Rockets homeboy/rose tinted glasses in me.
  7. On the jazz side, Roy Hargrove hit me pretty hard back in 2018. Dude was a genius and he was a Texan. Clifford Brown back in the day.
  8. Might as well post a pic while I'm at it...
  9. Well you all just made me check the KBB for my 2015 Double Cab 4x4 TRD Sport, 70k miles and I'm shocked the value is that high. I knew it'd hold decent value, but damn that's nuts. It's not that much less than what I bought it for. I bought a 2015 with one of the main reasons being to get the 4.0L V6 before they stopped selling it in the Taco. Love the truck and plan on keeping it for as long as she'll allow.
  10. Just want to go on the record saying Hanna was a terrible leader even before the Eyes fiasco. Glad he's gone.

    You have Shuey anywhere?
  12. Seems like Tri-fuel generator that runs on gasoline, LNG propane, and natural gas is a good alternative. Researching those right now since we have a NG hookup line outside and would be a nice, portable alternative to a Generac-type setup that can run on more than one fuel.
  13. Based on all the plumbing repairs we've been doing, I'm buying a few of CPVC 1/2 inch elbows. Damn that's where a lot of failures have been. There have been a few new builds in our neighborhood using CPVC instead of PEX. WTF?? Why do that? Just use pex. It's not a huge incremental cost.
  14. Echo@davidg and picking up spare couplings for pipes
  15. For those like myself with busted pipes, those SharkBite couplings were a god send because they work on copper, pvc, and pex. Apparently I've been under a rock because I was unfamiliar with them until today. Very easy to work with and able to patch a couple leaks to get water back on-line.
  16. Same. Water went out this afternoon in Houston. Pressure had been dropping all afternoon..
  17. One of the ball valves froze on our tankless unit. Can turn off the heater (unplug, turn off gas line) and cycle water through it after thawing the lines out with a hair dryer or something. The inside of those units have electric heaters that keep it the elements warm enough when not in use, but it's just the intake lines that need to be kept thawed if possible. But yeah had a crash course last night and this morning in proper tankless maintenance in crazy cold weather.
  18. Been around since hornfans, posted from time to time since, and immamac definitely runs a different ship that is trending towards more restrictive, but whatevs. Blacklab for life. Don't agree with everything Beeper says but this is all regular disagreement and makes for fun banter (and actually tend to agree with him in this case). Why ruin a good thing, imma? Let it be, dude. And what's with all the GD stickeys? Let Sam play it out. He's proven folks wrong before. Is his arm different now? Yeah. Could it be better in the near future? Maybe. Should he be switched to TE? Prob not. Coin flip.
  19. Got damn I hate Mulkey...so happy for ISU
  20. Ok...so why listen to Coltrane when you can listen to...idk...JayZ? Both are giants in their periods and have their due. But provoking OP question and... bourbon?
  21. Just realized@atomheartbevo was talking about the same episode, The Drumhead.
  22. I echo many of the others on this thread after a few bourbons... But when Picard says, "she, or someone like us will always be waiting for the right time to flourish. Spreading fear in the name of righteousness" at the end of S4 E21. That is so precient right now especially given that TNG focuses on how the good of humanity has the ability to transcend our almost primal urges. It's solid TV that I enjoy pondering about after a long day. And I think it competes with the many great contemporary shows out right now, but maybe that's my optimistic/naive side showing.
  23. Dude, yes. You can't just turn your back on Htown sound. That is a perfect song to adapt.
