  1. I saw it back in mid-December and enjoyed it. The extra depth with the family and relationship storylines was a nice surprise- good times all the way through.
  2. I went to both one afternoon back in late December (was visiting for a basketball game), the schooner at O Bar was excellent.
  3. This would've been a perfect role for PO1D/Grendel.
  4. Austin switched to 10-digit dialing in 2013.
  5. The downtown library is awesome- I love it. For a few years (up until the Pandemic sent us remote) I worked in one of the buildings right across the creek from it. I live right across the river so would pick up books/DVDs on my walk to and from work. On nice weather days I'd walk over and work on the rooftop (still do occasionally just for a change of scenery and to hit bars/restaurants I like) and every so often I'd get lunch or a beer at the cafe. It's fantastic- beautiful design and great working space. One Saturday during the 2020 election I was doing a Saturday barhopping walkabout through downtown and on the walk home stopped into the library to take a leak before crossing the river. I hadn't voted yet so was able to take care of that at the same time and lit a celebratory joint as I exited the library- easily my favorite voting experience ever. I'd vote for it again, especially just to read all of the mouthbreather/illerati complaints on Surly.

    Getting old sucks

    Similar, I've had progressive lenses for 10 years or so and have never experienced what nnm is describing.
  7. Not to get too sentimental, but your post revived fond memories of the time I took your mom to Pound Town.
  8. A new context for the whole "I thought you'd be bigger" bit.

  10. I experienced this recently for the first time in ages. Driving back from West Texas late December I got the headlight flash so I slowed down a good bit... sure enough ~1/2 mile down the road was a State Trooper parked by the road just waiting. I don't take nearly as many road trips as I did 25-30 years ago, but I feel like I saw it regularly back then vs. rarely these days.
  11. My elementary school had Apple IIs in 1980, and we played Oregon Trail on them. Houston yes, but not NASA.

    Getting old sucks

    A good friend of mine started experiencing this a few years back (in his late 50s) typically after drinking even if not that much. After weighing the pros/cons of meds vs. ablation he went with the ablation surgery. It has been ~3 years now and all good- no issues since the procedure.
