  1. A lot of great input. Thanks guys. I'll pick up a bottle of liquid smoke this weekend. * P.S. I'd rep all of you guys, but I'm out all ready.
  2. Hey guys, I'm wanting to smoke a brisket the Saturday before the Super Bowl to serve on Sunday at my family's watch party. I'm wondering what the best process is in both packaging it up after it's cooked and what is the best way to reheat it. I'm planning on also smoking some baby back ribs and fresh sausage on Sunday, so I was wondering if it would be a good idea to reheat it in the smoker at the same time? Also, what temp should I reheat it to? Anybody have experience doing this? Any advice or tips? Thanks!
  3. Carmakers might be able to sell more electrics to a broader audience if they didn't make them all look so stupid. Tesla, who makes the most visually appealing electrics, started out great with the Lotus body, but then even they started making them look fucked up with their screwed up lack of symmetry on their current models. I'd never even consider buying a Volt, or a Prius or any of the others, because the all look goofy and cheap as hell.
  4. No. He was actually about a yard behind it if you look close. I thought so too at first, but when you go back and look, he was behind it.
  5. That was a great game with an amazing, unforgettable finish. Gotta feel sorry for the Duncanville team though. That's a horrible way to lose, especially in a championship game.
  6. I remember when this all played out because I had a very small hand in it. At the time I worked for a video & film production company that was hired by the advertising agency Fox used to design and execute the pitch to the league. We produced an exciting, flashy video, probably 20 minutes long, going over how Fox would cover each game and the new features they would introduce to the game broadcast. They covered every little detail in a very fast paced, high energy way. MTV style I guess you could say. Back then, not many folks were using those sort or tactics for that kind of proposal, so it definitely helped to make it stand out. I was sworn to secrecy and actually paid extra for it. Honestly, I didn't think that Fox had a chance because CBS & NBC had the contracts for so long, and I never imagined that Fox would bid so much for the rights. At the time Fox didn't really use big Fox for sports broadcasting, so everybody assumed that they were bidding for the rights for their regional networks, which only covered certain markets. It was a huge surprise to everyone when they dropped that bomb.
  7. This Brenham team is in serious rebuilding mode. If they were still in Region III, I'm not sure that they would have even made the playoffs this year. I'd love to see them go compete, but I fear that they're in over their heads next weekend. I'm still very impressed with how this year's team picked themselves up after an ugly 1-3 start.
  8. Hey guys, I'm going to be adding some cafe/globe string lights to my backyard and wanted some advice/help with some electrical wiring. I have a plan in place for where and how I'm going to hang everything, but I need to get some power to the light strings. My plan was to use an existing exterior outlet, and add a switch that leads to a new additional outlet that I plan to install on the underside of the underhang of my house. My question is 1) can I use the power running from the existing exterior outlet ganged to the new one and 2) how do I wire it so that the original outlet remains hot and the new one is switched? Basically I want to be able to keep my existing outlet and add another one that the lights will plug into, that is switchable so I can easy turn the lights on and off without plugging and unplugging extension cords. Can anyone help me with this?
  9. http://www.kbtx.com/content/news/Texas-AMs-Sully-statue-vandalized-with-accusation-of-racism-491395901.html So, anyway . . . looks like aggy isn't having a good Bird Eating Day.
  10. They're definitely the later, but it could still also be on purpose.
  11. They also climb trees like cats too.
  12. Looks like snek like baseball all over Texas. This happened in Brenham during a playoff game this weekend.
  13. The Beach Boys at the Summit when I was a kid. Went with my older bothers and a friend of theirs. It was the first time I smelled weed. The opening acts were The Fabulous Thunderbirds and some guy named John Cougar. Or John Mellencamp. Or maybe Cougar Mellencamp.
  14. I hope so, but a bunch of first round playoff exits ain't gonna cut it. My disappointment stems from the fact that I know they had better candidates and chose to go in this direction. I'd love to eat some crow, but I don't see this one being a very successful hire.
  15. Not real happy with this hire. Seems like a pretty big miss. They had better candidates apply. No idea why they would go this route.
