  1. Billy Strings was great too. EmmyLou talked about her rescue dogs the whole time and even sang a song about one.
  2. park in the garage across from clay pit and pedicab to DKR and back
  3. Went to beach road weekend in martha's vineyard last weekend and had a great time -- Beck, Wilco, Isbell, Khruangbin, Caamp, Lettuce, Emylou, Billy Stings. Loved that it was over at 8 each night -- let us get back to the house and have a few more beers but still get to bed relatively early. Beck killed it. Hadn't seen Wilco in a long time and could not believe how fat Jeff Tweedy has gotten -- sounded pretty good, though.
  4. Any suggestions for a shop in Austin that will (1) service a late 90's era submariner (it runs when you pick it up and start moving it but the dial won't turn the hands to set it) and (2) replace the face (i guess that's the crystal?) on a vintage (60s i think) Air-King (cracked when it got dropped on a hard floor). thank you
  5. Finally heading home from a great trip and loved all of our stops (especially all of the small towns way south in the heel of the boot) but I think Rome is my favorite.
  6. in puglia now and had the absolute best pizza we've ever had at a place called borgo egnazia close to fasano. we've also really enjoyed the little towns in the area. Ostuni and Lecce have been two of our favorites.
  7. We were there last week. Great place. Kids loved going back and forth from pool to lake. Fun little town to walk around. High dive into the lake blew kids’ minds.
  8. What’s going on? I’m over here now and haven’t noticed anything different. Hopefully stays that way til we head back to Rome and fly out next week.
  9. We did Austin to dc to Frankfurt to Milan then driver to como driver to ballagio driver to Venice train to Rome rented a car and got to puglia 3 days ago. Me wife and 2 kids. Lufthansa lost all of our luggage. Wife and kids got theirs in Venice but they fucking sent mine to the wrong place. It got to Venice the day after we left. I’m still waiting for it in puglia. I’m big and fat and have had hell finding any clothes that fit. Great trip but sucks dick not having any of my shit. I fucking hate Lufthansa and their baggage delivery company more.
  10. one more question -- we're talking about driving up Saturday and staying somewhere Saturday night. any suggestions on somewhere fun to spend the night bw here and there? we'll have a 8 and 10 year old with us so things like the worlds largest ball of twine or (second) biggest hole are in our wheelhouse.
  11. I'm sure it's been covered but a couple of quick questions for anyone that can help. We're talking about trying to go to the Sunday night game if everything goes our way. We haven't made any plans but are fine with driving. What are the chances of getting tickets and a place to stay? What is the best way to get tickets?

  13. Yes I was thinking that while writing the above. What a mess. It’s all broken.
  14. Does your store have any procedure that provides notice to the other employees in case he comes back in when you’re not there? What about any reporting to authorities in those types of cases? Seems like if you felt something was off enough to deny a sale it would merit telling others.
  15. Watts is going to team up with the CT plaintiffs' lawyers from Sandy Hook that got that big settlement from Remington and go after the manufacturer. The Sandy Hook plaintiffs focused on CT state law (sounds kind of like DTPA) to circumvent the federal statutes that shield gun manufacturers from liability. They're going to focus on the manufacturer's targeting of children in their marketing (apparently Daniel Defense has ads for their guns in call of duty and this asshole was really into that). Long story short -- Watts and the CT lawyers know what they're doing and are going to fuck up Daniel Defense. Issue (of course) will likely be Daniel Defense doesn't have Remington level assets (I'd guess -- I don't know shit about that world so maybe I'm wrong).
  16. Have the covid and have been quarantined so I’ve watched a lot of this the last few days. I watch a lot of pga but not much college golf at all. I’ve been surprised at how bad the putting is compared to the tour. I know that’s a huge gap but I feel like I’ve seen maybe 2 or 3 made over 15 foot and a ton of missed 4 to 8 footers. Probably more missed 4 to 5 putts than made. That said their tee to green games are really good. They all seem very consistent off the tee and on approach. Great to see Texas win and do so well in so many sports.
  17. His defamation case in TX was remanded to state court with a green light to move forward last Friday and the one in CT should be remanded by the end of the week.

    Facing Nolan

    They have a whole segment on that part

    Facing Nolan

    I saw it a month or so ago at a screening they had here in Austin and loved it. Brought back a lot of memories. There are a ton of great interviews with old players. Dave Winfield, George Brett, a bunch of old astros. Nolan’s my all time favorite.
  20. I have carved out a niche representing injured plaintiffs in (typically large energy related) bankruptcies and it's rewarding but often frustrating work. We've had good luck protecting our clients' claims from the traps in the big reorg plans debtors are filing but it takes a ton of back and forth with biglaw br sections to reach an agreement (and, often times, just when you think you have a deal the carrier or PI club's lawyer will throw a wrench in the process with some crazy redline that guts the protection you've worked so hard to craft) but for the reasons discussed above it is risky to take it to the mat in br court. Throw in a springing maritime lien and you get a lot of funny looks from the adverse parties and the Court.
  21. At la cantera today and would like to get good puffy tacos / cheese enchiladas. Any suggestions for something relatively close?
  22. is today's game sold out? i'd think there were GA tickets left but i'm not seeing any on the website?
  23. what a great movie
  24. thank you!
