  1. Cochineal extraction, maybe? Don’t take that to the bank……..
  2. Bob Wills is STILL the king-but don’t count out Willie!
  3. My wife’s family lived next to a portion of the Jennings family in Littlefield for years-they have some great Waylon stories. I love his music, too (all except the ill-advised version of “MacArthur Park”) but, damn, somebody should have tuned that Telecaster before he kicked that one off!
  4. “China Grove,” the Doobie Brothers. Triple guitar driven. “Fortunate Son” by CCR. “Satisfaction,” the guitar riff that changed everything in rock music.
  5. Or Wichita Falls, or Lubbock, or Tyler……we could play this game all day. San Angelo is actually a pretty nice place in cowboy West Texas, but water is a continuing problem.
  6. LA NYC-but August can be brutal
  7. Thanks for the info, I’ve now been researching, too. I’m an olive oil/avocado oil/butter cook, and had never looked at cottonseed oil. Oh, and sesame oil and lard in the appropriate dishes.
  8. “Refresh?” Whut? Says who?
  9. You don’t like the taste of cottonseed oil or is there some anti-health reason? Honest question, and I’m gonna look for that brand you show.
  10. New Baytown Seafood Express for the Thai food; I personally avoid Gatesville anywhere near a meal time-good luck with your visit and please report back! I’d love another decent recommendation.

    Getting old sucks

    Don’t blame you a bit for that attitude-I’m on 2 prescriptions, and it’s a pain in the ass. OTOH, i started a regimen of supplements at about 45 and I subjectively feel “better” overall whenI remember to take ‘em.

    Start with vitamin C, vitamin D (5000iu/day), and a chelated magnesium twice a day. I wouldn’t bother taking anything I bought off Amazon. How far down this rabbit hole to go? You’ll figure it out. from your friendly non-local pharmacist
  13. Same. Fuck ‘em. And Blue Bell, too.
  14. The Faces - “Stay With Me.” Glorious cock rock!
  15. Excellent taste you exhibit; Steve Goodman and David Allen Coe to the contrary, this is perhaps the greatest country song ever.
  16. “Satisfaction.” I’ve never owned a stereo rig loud enough to play it like it should be heard. Next question-
  17. Where do you live? College Station?
  18. It’s actually pretty good “American” Chinese, been there several times. I don’t want to see the kitchen, of course. The Chinese place on the courthouse square in Hamilton is quite good, too.
  19. Just back from spending 4 days in Amarillo (family estate finish-up.) Do not recommend-and I grew up there. If you have to eat, look for some local place, like Landshark for old style burgers or Los Braceros on West 6th (only that one-) or Metropolitan down southwest for American bistro-style food. Good luck.
  20. Adolescents about early junior high age
  21. Some of the liberal denominations have taken sex ed into their educational curricula since the schools are pretty much limited to “abstinence, abstinence, abstinence.”
  22. We may need to just go ahead and close the internet now. Or maybe I could get a research grant??
  23. Uh, Ireland is only slightly larger than West Virginia. Smarter? I’m not sure and I’m about as Irish a Texan as can be.
  24. I agree, story is pretty weak even if true. Pharmacists are actually quite well qualified to teach sex ed, being the medical professionals usually best informed about contraception, STD prevention and treatment, and AIDS prevention and treatment. I’ve taught sex ed at a variety of churches over the years and it’s an enlightening experience. Sorry about your education.
  25. Comparing Terry Kath to Sambora and May? I must have missed the sarcasm icon.
