  1. I bought a 3-day GA+ for $400 off nextdoor today.
  2. Anyone selling? i'm in Tarrytown.
  3. interesting that Erik Maund isn't listed as an officer for any of the Maund businesses: https://www.corporationwiki.com/Texas/Austin/erik-maund/107991273.aspx#companies
  4. Zilker Park doesn't need to become Zilker Parking. the park needs higher parking prices and parking enforcement. It's frustrating to see Zilker swarming with wrong way drivers, fucktards parking on the grass by the rugby field and volleyball courts, and the boondockers dumping their human shit in the bushes next to the trail.
  5. Another hobo tent fire on town lake: https://twitter.com/JamesLafferty/status/1393172491644854276?s=20
  6. UPS and LPS in Moab are great trails. I've never ridden up Sand Flats, just had the wife drop me off to ride down.
  7. for club rugby, you'd do a Zulu Warrior after you scored your first try. back in the day, you'd stand on one of the rickety tables at Nasty's while your teammates tossed beer at you singing "take it off zulu warrior!"
  8. I heard it from the 2nd floor of my house just off Enfield. sounded like distant fireworks going off.
  9. We got a quarantine email from AISD Saturday for our 15 year old kid who attends Austin High. he has no symptoms and is pissed about being on lockdown. wife took him to ARC for COVID test yesterday Waiting for test results.
  10. Gleason looked like an idiot on one of the local stations last night talking about arresting the County Judge and firing deputies that had talked shit about him. Williamson County is going to have to budget more funds for payouts for wrongful termination and false arrest.
  11. Shoal Creek homeowners say city still hasn't cleared encampments near homes Last week, people living near Shoal Creek told CBS Austin their concerns about homeless encampments on the greenbelt bordering their homes. Neighbors say the encampments, located in the area of W. 29th Street and N. Lamar Boulevard, have gotten larger and increasingly dangerous in the past several months. Homeowners Holly Lanham and Misty Reid say people in the encampments frequently yell profanities, pile trash near the river and start fires in the heavily wooded area near their homes. When our story aired, Council Member Alison Alter posted a statement saying the camps would be cleared at the end of the week. However, neighbors say that still hasn't happened -- one week later. "We haven't seen cleanup crews at all. The camps are still there," says Holly Lanham. "This is not the first time they've made a promise and nothing happens," says Misty Reid. CBS Austin reached out to the Parks and Recreation Department, a spokesperson said they're currently working to resolve the issues with the encampments and sent this statement:
  12. Maudie's at the Triangle on Guadalupe has been locked out by their landlord: https://www.austin360.com/entertainment/20200824/maudiersquos-tex-mex-at-triangle-likely-closed-permanently A sign on the door of one Maudie’s Tex-Mex location is also a sign of the times. A lock-out notice posted on the popular restaurant’s door states that Maudie’s landlord at 4600 Guadalupe St. has changed the locks, though the “lease remains in full force and effect.” That likely means those looking for Strait Plates from the location that opened in 2014 are going to have to visit one of the other six Maudie’s locations around town. “The closure of Maudie’s Triangle location is likely permanent, although the door is still open if the landlord decides to re-enter negotiations,” a representative for the 25-year-old restaurant said. The remaining Maudie’s dining rooms and patios are open 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. Sunday-Thursday and 9 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday, and the restaurants are also offering curbside service and online ordering.
  13. Powers Tools Show I went to once had two SM girls whipping a mule behind a silhouetted sheet.
  14. 12 seconds in the first video, Peaceful Protesters, attempt to communicate with the truck driver using morse code and a crow bar on his windshield.
  15. Homeowner should take possession of the greenbelt behind his house and line the perimeter with Concertina Wire. $91.58 for a 492' roll on Amazon.
  16. Marquise Goodwin going down with Stephen Jackson and DeSean Jackson
  17. can’t wait for season 3. Just rewatched s1 & s2. love the storyline complexity, the dark cinematography, and brooding audio. Watching with subtitles is the best way to go.
  18. I'm confounded by the absurdist symmetry of a race series promoter promoting race issues to rednecks.
  19. Will Mike Leach motivate my kids to do house chores for $100? Well fuck, his price has gone up to $150: https://www.cameo.com/mikeleach
  20. https://austin.eater.com/2020/6/5/21281623/pluckers-trump-donations-twitter-viral People are not very happy with Austin-based chicken wing restaurant chain Pluckers after finding out that one of its co-founders donated to the Trump presidential campaign in 2016. A Twitter user posted a screenshot of one of co-founder Mark Greenberg’s donations to Trump in 2016, alongside text that read: “In case y’all are wondering why @pluckers is so quiet,” referring to the fact that, at that point on the evening of Wednesday, June 3, the chicken wing company hadn’t shared any messages of solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement or the protests, which began late last week, unlike other restaurants and companies. In response to the tweet, people have been expressing their disappointment and dismay to the point where Pluckers was trending on Twitter locally. Many have vowed to go to get chicken wings from other restaurants instead, and others offered restaurant recommendations, especially of black-owned restaurants such as The Rolling Rooster and Gossip Shack. A day after the tweet, Pluckers posted a message to its social media accounts on the afternoon of Thursday, June 4. It wrote that George Floyd’s death in police custody was “painful to watch” and “an unnecessary example of excessive force and the cruel nature of abusive police officers.” The company noted that it tries “to be a safe haven” for everyone and that it treats its employees “with blindness to color, religion, gender, or sexual preference.”
  21. thanks for posting your video. i haven't made my way out to spider mountain yet. i had always imaged a bunch of jumps with air at spider mountain. i'm fine with 1-3 foot drops. otherwise i keep my wheels on the ground.
  22. Smith's corner, the referee, and the ring side doctor all fucking sucks donkey dicks for not stopping that fight. When Smith got hit by Glover and turtled up clutching his eye, the fight should have been stopped immediately.
  23. last couple of times we hit Hyde Park Bar & Grill pre-covid, their business seemed way off. we got seated immediately on either a Fri or Sat night. servers were shitty, but that's normal in austin.
