    Clay is a solid guy who is great at hospitality. 5280 is a great place.
  2. That sounds like a huge waste of time and money for all involved.
  3. Continuing Legal Education
  4. I think that is an RRISD Police/Emergency phone number
  5. I heard a story at a CLE event today about a CPA firm that had their invoicing system hacked. The hackers sent out past-due notices demanding immediate ACH payments for current invoices (The narrator: the CPA firm was not set up to accept ACH payments). One client was so pissed about it that he sent the ACH payment (to the hackers) and promptly fired the CPA firm for being such dicks about payment terms! Bad situation all around!
  6. The North Loop store (RIP) was my jam as a kid. The Airport store was more of my late night drunk college guy jam. I've heard mixed reviews lately. Hope that they get their shit together.
  7. I'm really having a hard time working up anything cloudy for the demise of The Pig Stand. Fine for it's time, but there is lots of better food out there these days.
  8. There is some really sophisticated stuff going on out there (Brat's wasn't all that sophisticated) -- but I've seen cites that something like 90%+ of it relates to organized crime. They don't fuck around. If it wasn't immensely profitable, they wouldn't do it.
  9. Yikes. Nowhere else but up for the Horns!
  10. Funny Norm MacDonald joke! Sorry about you losing your buddy. Dogs going away always makes this guy a bit misty.
  11. Which is apparently generational land held since 1909. Very hard to make the numbers work with modern-day land costs. https://44farms.com/our-story/
  12. It ain't happening in Texas these days. Recreational use (hunting) far outweighs any ag use in most of the state. I am fortunate that our family owns some East Texas timberland that can be used for multiple purposes that can be profitable sometimes.
  13. Good to know that you have planned for contingencies!
  14. IDK, but these guys may sneak up on your power usage.
  15. I made the Julia Child beef bourguignon right after Christmas. Couldn't believe that it needed more wine!
  16. Did @next2naus ever get to meet or party with Frank?
  17. Us old guys get that. It's the bottom of the fifth, Frank!
  18. As I was saying: Joe's Bakery in Austin wins James Beard Foundation 'America's Classics' award The foundation said one of the reasons that cemented Joe's as an Austin staple is its firm sense of community. https://www.kvue.com/article/life/food/joes-bakery-austin-james-beard-award/269-e48074f0-a7aa-4ca5-985e-c5eeea9da6d8
  19. Speed all you want, but there is no fucking excuse for running red lights. Just stupid and deadly.
  20. Consequences have happened: https://thehill.com/homenews/3869266-texas-school-superintendent-resigns-after-leaving-firearm-unattended-in-bathroom-for-3rd-grader-to-find/?utm_campaign=TheHill-trending-stories&utm_source=kxan.com&utm_medium=thehill-cross-brand
  21. I made a joke about how dangerous it was to get between Art and a TV camera on a FB thread of a friend (who is a somewhat public figure) -- Art was most displeased and let me know about it. He is a tool.
  22. Twin Liquors now owns Sigel's stores in DFW area -- they celebrate Dollar Days, as well.
  23. The Startlegram article about the Mexican Inn closing also included the tidbit that Bailey's on Taylor Street downtown is one of the two oldest barbecue restaurants (along with Black's in Lockhart) still owned and operated by the original families. Who knew? Another one gone: Fort Worth’s oldest Mexican restaurant lost location, will move https://www.aol.com/another-one-gone-fort-worth-222552440.html
