  1. It was Christmas in prison And the food was real good We had turkey and pistols Carved out of wood And I dream of her always Even when I don't dream Her name's on my tongue And her blood's in my stream
  2. Max hoe capacity is 16. 6 Vic hoes.
  3. What's a good FFL to use in South Austin? Thanks to Mac's post above I'm ordering a 1911 from Palmetto.
  4. Here's a pic of the interior (with the lights on). 10% Surly discount of course.
  5. I'm selling my 40' Cruisers Yacht 3870 if anyone is interested. Asking $75k. It's in the water now at Sail-n-Ski Lakeway, ready to be used. It's a beautiful boat and in great working order. Slip can be transferred.
  6. I was born in Anchorage months after that big '64 earthquake. Nothing shakes me. 9.2 just like South Austin's mom likes. Ash me about it.
  7. The view from my brother’s porch near Willow City
  8. Glad that you are home now and wishing you a full and speedy recovery.

  10. FIFY I'm sure that they will find out which party to blame soon enough.
  11. What's Love got to do with it?
  12. A more likely scenario is that the russian stole the nork's provisions and the nork laughed at him and told him that he was eating dog food.
  13. Kinda fucked up that some of y’all are joking about a local special needs kid getting stabbed to death. And yes, I know where I am.
  14. https://www.amazon.com/Mutual-Industries-500-0-0-Standard-Backer/dp/B00XNQRKX8/ref=asc_df_B00XNQRKX8/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=693386685331&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=17810941024835926743&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9189186&hvtargid=pla-311820750871&mcid=1417fb4ccbe0308a921553a6d1133712&th=1 Backer Rod comes in different diameters. 1/4" - 2"
  15. Cantilever it over Town Lake.... water taxis and gondolas.
  16. Ah yes... the iPhone 5 tower.
  17. I agree with this. If @Jiggy-Z is willing to work for someone else, I can guarantee that a large GC that self-performs their concrete work would hire you in an instant and pay you well. That would be for estimating and/or PM work. I'm thinking of companies like Hensel-Phelps, DPR, Spaw-Glass, Austin Commercial. I know you've worked in this arena before and you may have some contacts already. This is in addition to big forming companies like United Forming, CapForm, and your bigger concrete companies like Ceco. Experienced people with your background are hard to find. You would be a great hire. Best of luck and well wishes for you and your wife. I hope it all works out. edit to add: You may think that working for another company might be a step backwards for your career. But you may like sliding into retirement working for someone else and not having to pay the bills, run HR, logistics, contracting, and all of the other 'stuff' you do when running your own business. You might find it to be so easy that you actually enjoy yourself.
  18. Good. Fuck him. I lost a good friend to that bombing in Beirut. RIP PFC Billy Stephlug.
  19. $79k and it can be yours. Beautiful boat. Docked on Lake Travis.
  20. Looking for some advice here. I'm selling our 2002 Crusers Yacht 3870 (40' cabin cruiser) that's on Lake Travis. What would be the easiest way to a quick sell? Asking price will be about 20% less than Boat Trader for same make/model. It's mechanically sound but not 'updated' with modern lighting, flooring, electronics. I've been told that boat brokers wont deal with older boats. So is Boat Trader my best route? Anything else? The marina wont let me 'For Sale' it on the dock.
