  1. I still have the XPS and the Samsung TV. Everything else went to goodwill.
  2. All items priced to move. Everything guaranteed not DOA, but other than that all items as-is. These have all been in regular use except the laptop, which has been off for 3 years. I'm cleaning out my office. Dell XPS13 - $100. REALLY solid little machine. Full HD screen. Service tag C7H22Y1 puts it as 2014 model. Base specs 256GB SSD, 8GB DDR3 RAM, 2.0GHz Core i7. Has W7 installed, but I make no guarantees as to what's on there. Does have a valid OEM license for W7, so maybe you can re-install and then upgrade to W10 for free? Dell U2412Mc Full HD monitor - $50. 24". No dead pixels. Been my main monitor for many years. Includes a USB hub which is crazy useful. I'll throw in a DVI cable (probably also have a VGA cable if that's easier). No HDMI or displayport on this one. Vizio E280-B1 - $50. 28" TV, base model. Specs here - https://www.vizio.com/e280b1.html. I have the remote, but I don't have the stand. Great little TV. No dead pixels. Samsung UN32J4000AFXZA - $100. 32" TV, also fairly plain. Been my office TV for two years without a hiccup. I also bought an adapter plate that makes it easier to put on a wall mount. I have the remote, but not the stand. Specs here - https://www.samsung.com/us/video/tvs/UN32J400DAFXZA-specs. Vizio s2121-dO 'sound stand' - $25. Like a sound bar, but bigger and flatter, perfect for setting on a tabletop under a TV. This thing is LOUD. Specs here - https://www.vizio.com/s2121wd0.html Side table from target - $25. Some nicks but nothing major, was a floor model. Mahogany in color. I have pics if you want to see them.
  3. verdad.
  4. Right, because no one ever improves with regular snaps, repetition, and game experience. Which Shane got none of. Wasn't everyone here ready to bench Sam last year?
  5. Never guarded any, but watching Kris Clack play pickup games in Gregory was fucking hilarious.
  6. How's the view from that high horse? (I'm fucking with you .. I mean, I still hate your bets, but I can separate that from the person :)).
  7. Don't be willfully obtuse (I say that with love). 95% of craps players are betting that the point comes before the seven, so they're rooting against the seven. If you are betting that the seven comes first, then you win when 95% of the table loses. I don't know what you consider "rooting", but you're just using semantics to hide behind.
  8. I never get tired of Herman ... "I love you, and I can not wait to watch you play." Dude just gets it.
  9. hahahaha dammit I"m an idiot. Dennis Green at ASU, obviously.
  10. Winning cures everything. 9-7, playoff berth with what he's already got on the roster is VERY attainable. His upside is the Rams this year (also with a young coach). Hire a big-time DC (wade phillips?) and this isn't the craziest thing I"ve ever seen. Better than trying to lure Dungy away from AzSt or giving Hue fucking Jackson another run, for example.
  11. In no particular order ... LJH, Omenihu, Anderson. Been said already upthread that the really cool thing right now is that we have backups to actually fill some of these spots, unlike the last goddamn decade. Coburn fills in neatly for Nelson. There will be a dropoff, but it's not a guy playing out of position. The LB and CB positions are similar. There will be a dropoff, but there are highly-rated guys ready to stand in. LJH and Omenihu are difference-makers, and there's just no way around the fact that when NFL talent leaves, you feel it. So that's my answer. Agree with Beck and Watson as well. Those two guys are cogs in this wheel - Beck made so much of the offense go beyond just his offensive output. He stabilized a position that was a literal black hole for years. Watson didn't fumble. Period, end of story. Kirk Johnson, to the bat phone - this is how you get on the field next year.
  12. Lots of guys break off big runs that aren't considered burners. Angles, second-level blocking, etc all play a part. #statingtheobvious.
  13. seems like that one part should be attached to that other part.
  14. you have a golf bag yet?
  15. The feeling of a good range session can last all day ... feels good man.
  16. wow. I've never seen that report. Just the executive summary is brutal.
  17. Some solid production out of a pretty low-ranked class. D'onta and Armanti. Heard. LJoe and Leonard contributed. Poona is probably the gem of that class behind D'Onta. Beck did WORK this year and last. I'd argue that Elijah Rodriguez and Jason Hall both outplayed their ranking here.
  18. Also, Fireman Dryerman -http://firemandryerman.com/. I can confirm that he's really still a firefighter, and does this on his off days. He now employs several current firefighters to handle the workload. They also do minor dryer appliance repair (fixed a lightbulb for us, and reattached a wonky front panel). I still think vent cleaning is a strange thing to specialize in, but they do it as well as any. I'm sure the georgetown guys do great work - just adding to the list here.
  19. Matt at South Austin Irrigation is your guy - https://www.southaustinirrigation.com/. He's done my tuneups three years running, and added a zone for me last year at a reasonable price (about $1000, but did it without having to run new wires, and squeezed things into weird spaces). His team are top notch, and incredibly easy to work with. The irony is that we're putting in a pool now, which has completely torn up the zone he added for me. That zone never put a drop of water on a piece of grass - lol. Oh well - he's going to get all the repair work in about four months, too :).
  20. ed verdad. muy verdad. Streamsong Red.

  22. Some gold in this thread already. I'll second The Doors and Aerosmith (and I like Aerosmith, but most of it really is quite shitty). I"ll add Nine Inch Nails, although "great" can be debated they got a lot of run in the 90's and 00's, and I never got it.
  23. I can't bear to read this thread anymore ...
  24. Where is this magical place that ER is easy to find and cheap? It's neither, in Austin.
