  1. What’s this lime green in NW corner of my St Augustine lawn? Dog piss burn? That brick fence is due west and gets lot of shade. The north picket fence casts some morning shadow, but definitely not in that pattern, as only that far corner is affected. Tips of the blades are starting to die out some and some grey splotches few and far between. I put some 15-5-10 a couple weeks ago did I chemically burn that corner? Broadcaster has an edge guard deal.
  2. Hank! My man! Ca c'est bon! Hitting up Arlen’s finest or Gilbert Fontaine De la Tour D'Haute Rive fry dat up?
  3. Yeah, sad I’m missing ABW mexi lager usually goes down smooth. Just polishing off some JK Provenance over here.
  4. Flatter than a tabletop Makes you wonder why they stopped here Wagon must have lost a wheel Or they lacked ambition one
  5. What you saw in that van was a natural expression of a man's love for his lady
  6. The best early May meme has always been. “Hooray hooray! The first of May. Outdoor fucking starts today!”
  7. It tops out at 20 though.
  8. Things I think about doing while drinking beer in the garage by myself.
  9. When I was a young man About 21 years old y'all All I wanted was a stripper girlfriend And a Gold Top Les Paul Be careful of the things you wish for You might get 'em
  10. Lots of LL are formulaic no doubt, but so are lots of westerns. Due in large part to LL churning out pulp “a stranger rides in town” stories for a generation. I used to grab a couple used titles before going offshore in the years before reliable internet.
  11. The cover sheets are going on BEFORE they go out, now. So if you could, just...yeah. I’ll get you a copy of that memo.
  12. Crawfish pie and boudin roll-up from down the bayou. Served up on translucent brown paper bag.
  13. A few years after graduation when old job was trying to separate the worker bees into project group or engineering group, our client at the time (UT BSME w/ Rice MBA) is called by the new guy (aggy with an industrial design or whatever degree) and we overhear aggy say, “hold up, let me open excel. I have to do some minusing.” ...My eye twitched so hard I still think about it over a decade later, and make comments whenever that aggy is brought up in conversation. (He’s a realtor now)
  14. You’re doing it backwards. Do you know reliably what your current mattress ways? If not you’re going to want to buy a top of the line calibrated mattress scale as step 1.
  15. Damn. That already looks good. If you need volunteers to post up in the shade under that tree line in the fall and protect that poor clearing from being over run by dove or deer, I know some people.
  16. Ruffian was banned from pageants years ago.
  17. CFS + nostalgia for me as well. Better tx mex options, but Matt’s was THE bar for a long long time.
  18. (Maybe more than trivial as it’s happened to my wife and I the last 3 times out.) People that bring their infants/toddler to a nice restaurant on Friday/Saturday night. Then polite society forces us to smile through your teeth and say “we understand. We’re parents too.” It’s not okay. You know damn well it’s not okay. I don’t know what the cutoff is; $100, white table cloth, no kids menu, I don’t know, but there’s a line and you crossed it. Fuck y’all! You can afford the drinks and plates you can afford a fucking sitter like the rest of us.
  19. In to drink beer
  20. Oh hai. See if you can guess who I am tonight, and I’ll do the same. “Elvis from the internet? My bad.” “Elvis you’re looking surly. *wink* ...oh sorry, sorry, I’m drunk”
  21. I’ve been saying it since they announced LHN was official. They should do a limited commercial telecast from 2-3 big time sponsors. “Kansas at Texas brought to you with limited commercial interruption by SWA and HEB.” No tv timeouts just on the qtr and throw some logos up on the broadcast under the box score / ticker. Fans in the stands would appreciate the 3hr game, old school feel, and fewer adzillitron breaks. Fans at home would definitely appreciate only being subject to 4-5 repeat ads instead of every 3 mins of repeats.
  22. Jinx! Buy me a beer
  23. ^ That reminds me of one of my favorites. Bunch of muffins are in the oven. Muffin 1 turns to the group and says “is it me or is it really warm in here?” Muffin 2 says, “HOLY SHIT! A talking muffin!”
