  1. That stuff was all done in an official capacity as future president. So immunity
  2. Is there a cool down expected after the next week? Please? I would settle for unseasonably warm, but shy of nonstop record-breaking heat.
  3. I just read the Nutty Putty Cave wiki. I understand basically every other form of thrill-seeking more than spelunking. That is fucking nightmare fuel.
  4. Mind-blowing report from here in Williamson County. A possible whinchat, which would be the 1st ever anywhere in the Americas, was photographed near Granger this morning. It hasn't been refound yet, but I may give it a shot tomorrow. Pretty unassuming little guy, but he is very lost. Next closest record is the Azores.
  5. I also stopped there recently on our trip out west. Pretty solid.
  6. Had a Vermillion flycatcher today at Old Settlers in Round Rock. Poor photo and just a juvenile male, but a nice surprise. The adult males are truly spectacular.
  7. BYU has another loss in them with TCU and Cincy upcoming. Hopefully Tech is the sole Big 12 rep.
  8. It has been a slooooow autumn, but my 3 year-old pointed out a flock of sandhill cranes flying over the playground at dusk. Great birds. I need to visit the Platte River one day to see the enormous flocks gathering during migration.
  9. This gave me my biggest laugh in the last decade.
  10. I think we tried to keep our kid in the house for a weekend, keeping him in underwear and taking him to the toilet every half hour or so. Tried once not too long after he turned 2 with no luck, but it seemed to work a few months later. Getting him to shit in the toilet instead of asking for a diaper was a far greater challenge for us.
  11. I would like to go to Cape May.
  12. We could really use Teddy 2.0 right about now.
  13. Because he's fucking obnoxious and has an elementary school haircut.
  14. The aquarium is superb.
  15. And you call yourself a doctor?
  16. Lol, no hold on Simmons?
  17. ...until next week. 80s are coming back, baby!
  18. My 3 year-old successfully participated in his daycare's Halloween parade today. He was a cowboy. This is a big step, as last year he would not even get in his Mickey Mouse costume. I don't know if I've ever seen anything more adorable than one hundred 2-4 year-olds proudly parading around in their costumes.
  19. The good thing about these elections is they force you to put some degree of thought into them. Pre-2016, I always at least made sure there weren't any glaring red flags to the D candidates, or some exceptional R. For candidates nowadays, all I have to do is see who Abbott and Co. are endorsing for "non-partisan" positions, pick anyone else, and my research is done.
  20. I used to love going to the grocery store. Now, with the combination of prices, especially for a cheapass like me, and dragging a 3 and 1 year-old through HEB, I'm just fighting for my life every goddamn trip.
  21. True, but they also didn't wake up and become that way in 2016. I honestly have a very grim outlook on the future, but I am curious what a post-Trump America looks like.
  22. I don't know either, but I'm ready to find out and see if this nation can be salvaged in any way.
  23. I said this exact thing when the play happened. Way too late. But I'll take Manning's performance tonight. I thought this game was over at least 3 different times. I don't have high hopes for the season but this was an enjoyable comeback.
