  1. Of course, Wally's was just the Dairy Queen back in my early Fine Trojan days. We had a friend that worked there who convinced us to never order one of those frosty's! Made of pretty nasty stuff.
  2. Top Notch and Conan's are still haunts that I go to with my now ancient HS friends. Go Trojans!
  3. I have a hunch that you are on to something there. Crazy that Buda EDC did that when there is already a pretty vibrant food and drink culture on Main Street.
  4. I get the whole idea of perfecting your craft and all that stuff. The truth is that there is likely way more money to be made from full bars than smoked brisket.
  5. I have some pretty close ties to a restaurant that for years only did 5-10 pm service 7 days a week. Then their demographics changed and they decided to add lunch service M-F and do full service 11-10 on Saturday and Sunday. It really changed their operations a bunch. Additional managers and employees. Not always easy to find people that can wave the flag as well the originals.
  6. Craft BBQ, full hours, and a full bar operation seems to be a difficult puzzle to solve. Valentina's has a great physical layout. Perhaps they need to add other foods to round things out?
  7. Postal Inspectors and (remarkably) Secret Service are very responsive to matters involving bank fraud. Way more interested than local District Attorneys.
  8. I drank free bourbon there one afternoon because they were short-staffed and didn't have anyone capable of operating the POS system. Not that I am complaining about that afternoon!
  9. Of course that is better than the la Barbecue employees losing their fingers.
  10. I had no inside knowledge, but knew that things were not working. It could be a really cool place.
  11. Valentina's in Buda is a work in progress. Great building and a full bar. Hope that they get their shit together.
  12. Nate's in Buda is a pretty cool bar. Inside and outside seating. Food delivery is available.
  13. Stay away from the US postal service for any payments by check. I handle business affairs for my church and we ended up moving our mail delivery from our physical address to a P.O. Box due to all of the mail theft and check-washing that we experienced.
  14. One of my frat brothers came in for a football game and ordered the habanero chili. It was a near-death experience.
  15. Bold move. Most of us just tried that to get a six-pack!
  16. https:// The Battle of Big Taco www.texasmonthly.com/food/torchys-velvet-taco-national-expansion/
  17. Don't forget that After Irth is moving from Lufkin! Downtown Dallas will seem absolutely buzzy in comparison.
  18. Coyotes started howling during the totality out in the country near Liberty Hill.
  19. Before I read this thread, I had no real idea of how important/significant this little sliver of the interwebs is. Carry on.
  20. This thread sent me down a memory hole. Letterman used to be funny. Candy and Flaherty were both great comedic actors. RIP.
  21. Well, it is a joke in the broader sense.
  22. Texas Archive of the Moving Image is always a good place to find history. Here is the link to what they have indexed to Hays County: https://texasarchive.org/taxonomy/term/115720?&page=3
