I'll admit to being easily confusible, but isn't that pretty much what Barrow has done? -
I have the Nest x Yale, and I've been pleased with it.
You can assign individual codes of your choosing, and set restrictions as to what time of day access is allowed, as well as set an expiration date for each. It can notify you when each code is used if you'd like.
I don't think you can unlock with voice via Google Assistant (you can lock), but it's easy enough to give your old man access on a phone or tablet if you'd like. -
Yeah, that was meant in jest. I think any public-facing parody of his openness and earnestness to the common clay of social media (you know, morons) would be counterproductive to what's turning out to be a pretty special thing.
It's enough to excoriate the twatwaffles on Surly. -

Love this thread. I'm missing Colorado today:
Gunnison, CO:
High Alpine Brewing: Kölsch, IMO. It's exceptionally well done. Other beers are good, too. Pizzas are excellent, and not just a lazy brewery add-on.
Back Country Cafe: Awesome breakfast spot. Anything with green chile is good, the San Juan Eggs Benedict are the proverbial shiz.
Sherpa Cafe: Displaced refugees stuck around and opened a Nepalese/Indian joint. Great.
Crested Butte, CO:
The Secret Stash: Very good pizza, good atmosphere, Meat Candy appetizer is awesome.
Tincup, CO (glorious middle of nowhere):
Frenchy's Cafe: Great lunch stop if you're doing any of the surrounding trails/passes or fishing the area. Beautiful setting in an old mining town. Kids can fish in the stocked pond out front. Great burgers, incredibly good desserts.
Salida, CO:
Patio Pancake Place: Excellent unpretentious breakfast joint in a great town. Again, anything with green chile is good.
Buena Vista, CO:
The Buena Viking: Good if pricey burgers from a trailer in the outdoor seating area of Deerhammer Distillery. -

We bought Speed Queens about a year ago, and they have lived up to their shaggy/surly billing. We have been much happier than we were with our prior fancy Electrolux front loaders.
Bought from Country Mile Appliance in Florence and was very impressed with them, if you're north of Austin.

We actually watched it for the first time a few months ago. They liked it, but a lot of the Coen stuff was lost on them, so I was actually a bit disappointed in their reaction.
True to Coen humor, though, it grows on you and they both insisted on watching it last night (when they both usually take every opportunity to disagree) -- we all laughed our asses off, and they even picked up some things I'd never noticed. It does help that it's one of their wackier and more accessible movies.
As far as appropriateness goes, nothing worse than some reproductive anatomy, a little l'amour/wife swappin' propositioning, and language no worse they hear a hundred times a day from their mom.-

My 11yo and 13yo both begged to watch Raising Arizona last night. O-kay, then.
Although few and fleeting, there are moments when I feel like I'm doing a good job as Dad.-

Not sure, I'll have to see if that's under your mom's user profile.

Got one of these for Christmas, and don't have any real experience with a pressure cooker, so subscribed.
Any recommendations on black-eyed pea recipes? I have a ham bone left from Christmas, so I thought that might be a good first attempt with this thing. -

I also confess to an inexplicable weakness for all of the pizza flavored Goldfish.

I’ll take back all my suggestions to put Green Day on the list.
Green Day is an automatic channel changer for me, unless I'm having a shitty day and want to groom and give focus to my state of offended surliness.
On a similar but more recent note, critic darlings the War on Drugs. It's like a modern recycling of the cheesiest over-produced 80s phases of several of the above mentioned (Dead, Springsteen, whatever.). Quit with the glockenspiel already. -

Peter Jackson fucking sucks, and I hate him.
I wish they would make a mini-series out of The Talisman by Stephen King. That would be cool, if they can pull it off. They could also do Wolves of the Calla. That’d be cool, too.
Just reread The Talisman recently and had the same thought. The advent of the longer-form series brings a lot of great books into play -- I wish they would go back and give World War Z the proper treatment, it's perfect for that.
I say I'd love Blood Meridian too, but like A Confederacy of Dunces, the only thing it could do would be to disappoint.
It would be fun to see someone creative with a take on The Phantom Tollbooth these days. Just not Tim Burton. -
Ordered the Meade as well as the HA Rey book, we'll see how it goes.
Decided against the wifi adapter to connect to the phone/tablet. I may add it in the future, but it occurred to me that paying another $200 for another screen to distract him kinda undermines the point of this whole thing.
Thanks, y'all.-

My 11yo is asking for a telescope for Christmas, and this stuff is outside of my experience. Do the Celestron that Thujone linked or the Meade from Armybrat seem like reasonable places to start?
Thujone, does the control app you were talking about require the wifi module? Is there anything like that for the Meade which would make the initial learning curve less steep?
Also, it looks like the Meade uses GPS to align automatically, correct? I suppose that would be one less step than the Celestron, but is it that big a deal?
Anyone ever try the Celestron smartphone adapter, and would that work for either of these? It would be fun for him to snap some basic pictures without the complexity of full-on astrophotography.
Just trying to figure out if one of these is better than the other for a kid starting out, and which will reward his curiosity rather than crush it. Or if there are any other recommendations, I'd love to hear them.

LOL. I like Barrow pretty well, but realize it's definitely not the world class stuff you get on the reg in Austin. That said, it is a pleasant place to visit away from the big city, and I think they've done a pretty good job following that hyperlocal model as you described (and I agree with you completely on that). I will say that they do some strong seasonals and things that don't make it to cans, but I'm cool with that, and again it gets back to fitting into your locale rather than trying to be something you're not. We hobbits have to have a place to drink, after all.
But Kyler can't come.
