    We just go for the 1/2 price HH dishes most of the time.
  4. This is my go-to smith…. https://www.blackjackguns.com
  5. My oldest brother is an Eagle Scout - He attained that rank at the age of 13. (Had over 100 merit badges). I didn’t make it past my Cub Scout Wolf badge after we moved back Stateside in 1954. Mom was our Den Mother at Fort Brooke in Puerto Rico. I’m 4th from left:
  6. Smoking that cigarette wasn’t doing his health any good.
  7. My oldest son & 1st wife bought this house on Triton Court in Lakeway 30+ years ago. Lived there for several years before they were divorced. It has been totally renovated in recent times. https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/103-Triton-Ct-Lakeway-TX-78734/29350900_zpid/
  8. Maybe both.
  9. Yep, every once in a while we would see an open bed truck driving around the streets with a bunch of wailing/crying people in back dressed in KKK type robes & hats. A few times a couple dozen “mourners” were packed in the back of big dump trucks. The deceased must’ve been well off contruction types. They raised quite a racket.
  10. Yep, a B12 coach bullshit downvoted Texas enough to make a difference in that poll. Briles?
  11. At the US Military Compound in downtown Taipei during the late 1950s, the Officers’ Club had a windowless room about 25’x25’ with slot machines lined up on all four walls. Minor dependents were not permitted, but I peeked in to see if my Mom was winning anything. The place was packed and the cigarette smoke was almost too thick to see across the room from the door. It was like that every Friday & Saturday evening. At that time Taipei had no television stations, no American movie theaters, and only one US Armed Forces Radio station for entertainment. Most of the US military wives drank heavily.
  12. Who translated for him, Barbara Billingsley ?
  13. Yes, on aisle 12 at Academy Sports….
  14. And specialized training for their future workplace ….

    Whacked - now waiting an hour for the lab report to see if he got it all.
  18. One of those captured German V-1 “buzz bombs” was on static display at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas when when Dad was attending the CGSS there (1949-59). We armybrats used to crawl all over that thing & straddle it like Slim Pickens.
  19. This Cajun joint in Round Rock seems ok, but I just go there for the CFS - but Mrs. Brat likes their shrimp dishes. https://www.thelouisianalonghorncafe.com/menu

    Good lord man! You definitely should get fitted for a nerf suit. You’re a tough old bird, but come on, watch out! This surgeon is gonna carve a basal cell carcinoma spot off my forehead this afternoon. If he’s Sicilian, I hope he doesn’t get too carried away with his knife. http://www.bswhealth.com/physician/dominic-ricci
  21. Some schools have no shame. But Texas had a brief brush with similar stupidity. I recall during the Mack Brown years one time the official Texas football website had added a “South Division championship” to that season’s record. It didn’t take long for that embarassing idiocy to be noticed and ignominiously removed.
  22. Techsters protesting the B12 tortilla ban…. 😄
