  1. I just bought this one for $19 at Academy last week. Just wanted a simple cooler for a few hours. I have the Polar Bear 12 soft cooler that I got a Texas Exes Houston Chapter fundraiser with their "Come and Hook'em" logo. That one's great for heading to the neighborhood pool for a couple of hours. Big fan of that one.
  2. I switched recently to Spectrum for internet. I had AT&T uverse cable + internet for years but I dropped cable for Directv Now almost a year ago. So I only had AT&T for my internet but based on the distance to the hub, I was maxed out at 50MB which sucked. So I jumped to Spectrum 400MB plan and got it for $10 more than 50MB AT&T. But I noticed on my bill that there was a $10 phone charge. Can I avoid that? Or is it just part of the package?

    Texas BBQ

    I went to Victoria for a funeral yesterday and we stopped at Black's BBQ in Lockhart on the way home. One of my buddies got the beef rib and it was not their best. Disappointed. I got pork ribs, brisket and sausage. The brisket was awesome. I saw it on the cutting table and I said "yeah get me some of that". I was at Louie Muellers 2 weeks ago and I thought that the brisket was better at Blacks but the ribs + sausage were better at Louie Muellers. Of course this all varies visit to visit.
  4. "Body language expert" is my favorite expert.
  5. And man, I really want to eat that taco that he made for Nacho. Looked tasty.
  6. Yep. I think then and there she realized that Jimmy is a sociopath.
  7. I'm wrong. I did some searching on Breaking Bad and I'll just leave it as that.
  8. Like "Native American Joe Pesci" from Kiss Kiss Bang Bang...
  9. Holy sh*t. Lalo Salamanca is "Mexican Randy Quaid"!
  10. Lalo is dead in BB. I imagine that this next season the conflict will be Gus vs Salamanca and Lalo is too strong of a character to not have a role in BB if he lived through this conflict. I wish that Nacho had eaten that taco tho. It looked good.
  11. He did that line when he was running the Rolex scam in the alleys a few seasons ago...
  12. And that's surprising how? Saul Goodman was a prick on BB. Remember when he was telling Walter White to just kill Badger when Walter takes him out to the desert? He's just an entertaining prick.
  13. One year, I bet a buddy a beer that I could get in without handing them my ticket. I had a ticket but that I could just nonchalantly walk in. I did it. Just walked right in, right past them. Mainly by having a conversation with him. I"ve done it another time too. Both times I've had tickets but this isn't the Secret Service running the gates.
  14. This is the correct answer. After 3 really bad beatdowns and 5 in a row, the feeling of winning that game was ultimate relief. And it was over before halftime. Billy Pittman's TD before half sealed it. We were high fiving random strangers in the hallways to the concessions... For the record, I have framed pictures of both the Pittman TD and the '08 Shipley kick return in my gameroom and study... Both were amazing plays and I was at both those games.
  15. I've been to the game every year for the last 24 years and that game I had the best seats I've ever had. Under the underhang, Texas side around the 20 yard line maybe 40 rows up.
  16. Is this a "don't ask, don't tell" deal? I have a 5yo + 7yo boys and I won't take them to a big Texas home game yet alone Texas/OU. They only care about concessions and sh*t like that. Save your money, watch at home. My 9yo, however, is pissed that I'm not taking him... Give it a couple of years save some cash.
  17. Well deserved. I was at the Texas Exes Distinguished Alum award deal the year he won. Watching his video, reading about him, hearing him talk... you knew it was a strong possibility that he would be winning the Nobel. What starts here changes the world.
  18. If you have AT&T for cell service, then you should get HBO free + $15 off per month of DTV Now. I'm pretty happy about that...
  19. I think Sony's big mistake was the name. PS Vue. I have friends that dismiss it as an option because they don't have a Playstation. I have to tell them that they don't need it and then they get confused as to the name...
  20. I have the DTV Now and LHN is included in the "Just Right" package.
  21. We hold onto our cars for a while. Typically 7+ years so I don't go through this process that often. And the last 4 cars we have bought have been from those "one simple price" dealerships. 2 from Gunn Honda, 1 from Gunn Nissan and 1 from First Texas Honda. We are on the market for a GMC Yukon. I have a 2011 Nissan Pathfinder that we bought when we got pregnant with #3. But 7 years later, we need more room. I have a feeling we'll keep this for a while... I'm looking around online at Covert, Covert Bastrop, Gunn GMC, Nyle Maxwell and there is a ton of inventory. Which is good as a buyer. But I have some questions.. How much is worth between 2018 vs 2019 (assuming both are brand new)? They have to be wanting to unload the 2018s but how much of a discount between an identical 2019 should I get? Any websites to use to price shop? If they aren't "one simple price", any tips on negotiating? I have never bought a car that wasn't a fixed price... Any other tips?
  22. Yep, the Roku remote has a button to talk to it and I've found it pretty good when searching. I also like how Roku aggregates the results by what streaming platforms provide it. For example, I was searching for "The Equalizer" and it turns out that it was on say Fox movie app, I was able to get download the app, login via my DTV Now account and watch free.
