Hackett was a bigtime Colt collector, as were several other Hollywood actors. That set should fetch the upper end of the estimate.
I'm gonna watch three of the lower end SAA actions.

Yeah but then what? Is Ricky a BMF Texan? Darrel Royal? John Wayne because he played so many Texans?
DKR was born on soil that was stolen from Texas by the federal courts not long before he was born.
Ricky was a temp.

If the folks on that list are not Texans then I don't want to be right. Not Texans? My ass!
They are not Native born Texans, but they certainly are (or were) Texans by right of their contributions and choice. Particularly those who created, fought for, and bled for Texas.

A truly BAMF.... Bigfoot Wallace. He certainly got plenty of revenge for his brother's death at Goliad.

Not all of us are old as dirt and may have grown up in the Twitter age.
I may be forced to buy a newspaper to find out what's going on with spring football & recruiting.

You oughta get out of that basement.
Women are a powerful driving force in the concealed carry licensing expansion. Not to mention purchasing defensive weapons.

Hahaha, look at this bad ass keyboard warrior. You think owning guns makes you a man? Get the fuck out of here and run back to your double wide, kid. Mom's calling.

I posted this on the Conte thread:
QuoteI was still a Mack fan up until the time he said on TV that Earl was "still welcome on our campus" (after Earl had said it might be time for some changes). That was as bad & unforgiveable as Kurt Bohls not voting VY for the Heisman, IMO.
Then he went on his embittered mission to torpedo the recruiting class to "help them if they wanted to go somewhere else". (the complete opposite what he told the Tarheel recruits when he left NC for Texas).
I've never heard him apologize for that unethical & presumptuous bullshit, so I have no desire to ever shake his hand again.
The Benedict Arnold of Texas Football is an apt description.... again, JMHO.

That's a great picture.
Based on the river, this looks like it's before both Mansfield and longhorns dams, right?29 minutes ago, DanRydell said:
Before Longhorn Dam but Mansfield (and Tom Miller) were built before Disch Field.And before the City Auditorium was built in '57 - not to mention 1st Street west of Lamar. Seaholm Power Plant was built in 1951, Longhorn Dam in 1960. So photo was taken sometime between 1951 & 1957.

Went to see the Austin Senators play somebody there. Maybe 50 spectators were in attendance.
My high school (St. Edward's) held our homecoming football game there in the fall of 1962.

Thanks, all.Only other advice would be to start saving up for your next gun purchase.
And buy a big ass safe - at least twice as big as you think you'll ever need.

Nice sneks fellas.
On a tangent: LOL at Colt for making nice guns that guys covet and pay premiums for and still having to file for bankruptcy every year or so.

Colt first went bankrupt in 1842. Their management has sucked starting with Sam himself.

Steve Wynn took delivery of his 301' superyacht Aquarius in 2016. Now that he's been booted out of his business I wonder if he will ever get to sail on her again? Must be nice to have access to a slick ride like this:

I ushered for 2 seasons. That guy would give all of us all the weather report before the gates opened. His report never caught me by surprise.
Well, I just look at the sky or my phone for the weather - not much noisy interruption there.

A lot of the general fan base still likes Mack. The old $$ likes Mack. Hermann likes Mack. May agree with you, but will not be surprised if Mack is back.

Looking at this pic - I think the city and state missed a huge opp to have a national mall style expanse from the tower to the capitol.Too bad the old Kappa Sig house down at 19th next to the Cambridge Tower Condos was torn down. On Texas Independence Day they'd get drunk, put on serapes & sombreros and shoot back at the ROTC cannon salute up on the South Mall. I think they even had a small cannon themselves.
Edited to add picture of said scene - just took it from my 1963 Cactus (page 130):
Note that they caught their own front lawn on fire from their little black powder cannon blast. lol

Spent my high school weekend nights cruising the Pig Stand at Live Oak & Congress and the Holiday House on Barton Springs Road in the late '50s &early '60s.Brat I'm sure you ran into my Dad at some point. Seems like 90% of his stories start at the Pig Stand. He was Travis class of '62.
It's possible. I was St. Edward's HS Class of 1962. We were envious of the Travis High guys who got to go to school with chicks - hence the cruising of those venerable venues.

Me neither really, but was pointing out the hypocrisy of the "sensitive" Austinites who are trying to remove the names of any Confederates/slavers from schools and their plaques from public view. Am wondering when they will take notice of that part of her background.
Guess I could've elaborated more in that post. I could care less if she owned slaves.
