  1. Four point deduction for the book.
  2. That's what my agent told me. I have some carpet upstairs and it's pretty worn, but a steam clean made it look pretty good for showing. Also did a deep clean with a professional service and it hasn't looked this pristine since move in.
  3. Ha! Thankfully, no. Moving into my fiance's house.
  4. Maybe. But I know a couple that just sold there house in the Great Hills-ish area at the higher end of that range, and got $100,000 above listing price. My house is south of that, around the $750,000 to $800,000 range. At least I won't lose money. I bought it for $535,000 at the end of 2019, and my loan balance is about $395,000.
  5. It's Brentwood (username hasn't checked out since Hornfans circa 2006), but in any event I hope you're right. Seems like a lot of stuff in the area has been sitting for a while
  6. Listing my house on Thursday. The last two houses I sold in Austin were in a rising market with great rates, so I did pretty well. This time around, probably not so much. Thanks Biden/Trump/Obama/Mack!
  7. Okay, so he didn’t leave the defenders on the ground, but he had two guys on him at the catch, and still absorbed the blow and plowed ahead. Thanks for locating!
  8. Mack isn’t coaching, so no. Talk about setting a city back.
  9. They’re also called gutters.
  10. Yep. My favorite play of Worthy in 2023 was against Alabama, and it wasn’t the long TD. He caught about a 6-yard out on the sideline and immediately absorbed a big hit by the defender. Worthy shook it off, left the defender on the ground, and trucked ahead for another 5 yards or so for a first down.
  11. Nice. I love their pastrami. I live only a few blocks away and don’t go there nearly enough.
  12. Why? Was she fucking one of them too?
  13. This entire episode was a scene filmed in a single shot, and it’s one of the best in the series, up there with Fishes and Forks. So chaotic from beginning to end. It took me a few minutes to unclench.
  14. I was a late adapter to West Wing. When it came out I thought it might be too liberal and preachy (and this is coming from a lib), so I just never watched it. But I binged it a couple years ago at the urging of my fiancé, and I fucking loved it. Such great writing and acting all around, and an all-time fantastic cast.
  15. That was good for a chuckle.
  16. I will be humbly removing myself from the Heisman trophy ceremony until they give Reggie Bush’s trophy to Vince Young.

    Burgers

    No pics, but I got the burger at epicerie last night and it was pretty damn good. I’ve been eating there for years because it’s less than half a mile from my house, but just never got around to trying the burger. I recommend if you’re in the area.
  18. Yep. The only reason those whistleblowers left/got fired is because they started sounding alarms to save their own asses when it looked like Paxton’s bullshit might get them in legal trouble. But for that, each of those MAGA fucksticks would be in the signature blocks in all of these fucking lawsuits.
  19. Did you watch any of the former Assistant Attorney General testimony at the Paxton impeachment trial? There’s a line of ultra-right wing fundamentalist assbags who would gladly take a job at that office.
  20. Ism's in my opinion are not good. A person should not believe in an ism, he should believe in himself. I quote John Lennon, "I don't believe in Beatles, I just believe in me." Good point there. After all, he was the walrus. I could be the walrus. I'd still have to bum rides off people.
  21. You know Paxton is keeping an eye on that.
