  1. Just clearing out some I-35 expansion ROW.
  2. Any of y'all that live northwest or RR, Cedar Park, etc. and have to fly through DFW anyway, should seriously look at flying from GRK. We've started doing it as our standard and could not be happier. No Austin traffic or AUS security shit show. Parking is much cheaper and way closer in to the terminal. Flights have always been on time in and out of there. Embraer Regional Jet service through American Eagle, EJR 175s, mostly, I think. YMMV.
  3. But this problem has been staring in their face for at least a decade and they chose the political path of least resistance.
  4. Same. I have been giving one person on the inside shit about this for a decade. They say that I just don't understand the politics. OK, but I do understand the numbers. Something needs to change.
  5. I am an AISD and UT product. (Anderson Trojan hollah!) But we decided to home school and private school our kids. We paid the taxes, but didn't partake in their offerings. I very much hope that AISD can get it together.
  6. No disagreement. But I still think that they have not had the political will to deal with the icebergs ahead of them. None of this should be a surprise. Probably going on at least 10 years or more.
  7. And I am not endorsing the nuances of the redistricting changes. Details. What is obvious in the big picture is that the AISD needs less desks and less square footage. And the administration and school board have not had the political will to deal with that reality.
  8. Rip the band aid off. This is no fun, but it is ridic that the administration and schoolboard have not more aggressively dealt with this. Enrollment is way down. Facilities have not followed. Right size.
  9. Crazy. I really miss him. The last video interview of him with Gary Shandling at his home/studio at Malibu is so haunting. Both gone.
  10. That is funny. Truth told, Superbowl halftimes have sucked since the Tom Petty show.
  11. Never, never, none. Better if you don't stand too close to me! (Seriously, I must have had it by now, but no symptoms that I recall.)

    I always enjoy Lavaca Street, though not old school. (They do own LaLa's now, so they have that going for them!)
  13. Bob's and Red Ash both have upstairs areas that might be good for that.
  14. Death spiral happening. Unfortunate.
  15. I have the bride researching that place. Looks fabulous. Shrimp and grits FTW. A lot of good food around there. Interstellar and Stuffed are two that we have patronized before.
  16. Nick and Sam's looks like a strip club inside with what the servers and female patrons are generally wearing.
  17. Kenny & Ziggy's in Houston will give you the same City experience.
  18. That was the day we brought my newborn son back from the hospital and I had to bring some overdue videos back to the Blockbuster on Anderson Lane. I didn't know what all the firetrucks were about. I hope this development brings some peace to the survivors.
  19. Not all hero's wear capes.
  20. That thought has been bouncing around in my head for the last couple of days. Thanks for saying it!
  21. Amen to that! I cook liver and onions on my back porch burner. To be fair, I make my wife grill her salmon or whatever fish she is eating out there too! Nobody has time for those smells.
  22. I'm out of town this weekend, but I'd like to meet the TE room sometime. Thanks.
  23. Didn't know about the Okies taking it over on RRS!
