  1. My oldest grandson, a graduate of Austin High, is 22 years old and has a substantial college tuition fund that he has not utilized. He’s had two dead-end jobs, starting with making pizzas and now working at Brake Check. He seems to be interested in becoming a “real” automotive mechanic, but hasn’t decided which path to take, whether to get on with a dealership training position or take some courses at ACC first. His great grandfather did very well in that line of work for 4 decades starting a century ago. We are hoping he makes a more positive move sooner rather than later. (his gf just graduated from Texas State, so maybe she’ll be more persuasive than family members)
  2. They don’t want anybody seeing what goes on inside.
  3. My fondest recollection of the Texas Renaissance Fair was the chick walking around in the chain mail bikini.
  4. That would just instigate a sharp decline in the sheep population.
  5. Not to mention Snook has ten state championships in Class A basketball.
  6. Yep, very few get it straight.
  7. Say it ain’t so, Tito. 😉
  8. While staying at a family friend’s ranch in Oklahoma 70 yearsago, the owner rounded up a few of his cows for us to look at. One of the critters had a gory looking hole in it lower gut area filled with screwworms. The rancher figured the cow had scratched itself on some barbed wire, giving the insects a prime spot to lay eggs. It was really nasty looking. He called the local vet to come out to treat it, but I don’t recall the ultimate outcome for that particular bovine. None of the remaining herd of 200+ were infected - after being rounded up for a check.
  9. Gottdam carpetbaggin’ yankee.
  10. 60 years too late for my eardrums. No action on the SBR classification?
  11. Most of the gastric reactions are expelled elsewhere by our family & friends.
