  1. The State of Texas got the place for free for 50 years. Apparently got a notice 2 years ago about the lease termination. Incompetence? FAFO.
  2. Same story, different neighborhoods -- those parties were up on Cat Mountain and around Valburn in my day. Loop 360 was just under construction and Coors beer had only recently come to Austin. Good times, indeed! Edit: And Lanier Vikettes were always welcome! Lovely girls!
  3. IDK about the substance of the posts, but drive-by negging is stupid and reflects that someone has way too much time available to waste.
  4. "I didn’t realize westlake, Bowie, LT, Anderson and vandergrift intermingled that much at parties." Anderson Trojan guy here. Married a Westlake girl. There was lots of interaction between those two schools along with Austin High and McCallum back then (late 70s). Lake Travis and Bowie weren't really a thing yet.
  5. I am very much a 2A advocate, but that is a huge fuck-up. There should be consequences for the Superintendent.
  6. Love Kenny and Ziggys -- haven't been there since they moved their shop to the old Luby's in the Galleria area.
  7. This all seems like a pretty good idea for Austin development (or redevelopment): It’s Time to Brodie Oaksify Austin’s Sprawled-Out Shopping Centers https://austin.towers.net/its-time-to-brodie-oaksify-austins-sprawled-out-shopping-centers/?pro=caitlyn@towers.net
  8. Relevant to thread re: La Cocina de Consuelo on Burnet Road: https://www.statesman.com/obituaries/paco0428643
  9. Thanks, but I think that the Feinstein post has everything to do with Fetterman. Congressional staff control what's happening. Do your think that either of those two have had an original thought in months?
  10. Lot's of talented folks representing us in the US Senate, it seems. Baffled Dianne Feinstein walks out of Senate chamber wondering what just happened: 'Did I vote for that?' https://www.businessinsider.com/feinstein-asked-staff-about-votes-she-cast-on-senate-floor-2023-2
  11. Same thing with I-10 construction status. I-10 is largely a bridge for long stretches. A little bit of road repair can screw things up for hours. Do one of the Gulfport casinos for an overnight party/stay.
  12. Agreed. He should have hired a lawyer and a PR firm before the sun came up that fateful day. There is an apocryphal story about Jerry Jones getting the advice to hire a PR firm the day he bought the Cowboys and fired Tom Landry.
  13. Wow -- quite the plot twist there!
  14. That video of him and Gary Shandling at his house in Malibu is so fucking sad:
  15. I'm old enough to remember a good Super Bowl Halftime show: Fuck the NFL, but just click through.
  16. Living the dream!
  17. ABQ isn't easy duty in the summer when it is hot. Weight and balance is a big deal. I've had more than on flight from ABQ to DAL that had to stop in AMA to take on fuel.

    Fair enough. Time will tell what young "Luna" thinks about all of this.

    Thank you for reminding me! You are correct. I learned a long time ago that in a divorce proceeding, there are really only two people that know the truth about what happened -- and they usually disagree about it!

    I really don't know the answer. Such a wave is going on out there. It would be difficult to be on the other side of that wave. The child custody case in Collin County that got all of the publicity is a really good example. The wife pediatrician seems to be quite the advocate.
  21. That looks like a feast! Good job!

    LBGTQ

    Correct. I've been under the influence of Mr. Rogers for many decades.

    I am a UT grad. We have a family friend who had a daughter that "transitioned" around 14-15. She was a very troubled child. Hard to predict the outcome either way that she went. I have a deep concern that so many kids are essentially being experimented with these days. I truly believe that this is a social contagion being dealt with under the guise of "science"
  24. I think that is why G-d created Lockhart and Seguin. The new Terry Black's in Lockhart and the Burnt Bean in downtown Seguin are worthy as of last report.

    Nope. I just lived through a period where "the experts" shut down our society and economy, killed old people, made us wear stupid masks, take stupid experimental shots, and interrupted the development of our kids. Just three years later, we are finding out that all of that was a farce. I'd like to see the evidence that demonstrates that this trans movement isn't just a function of social media. More importantly, where is the data that supports the concept that a parent needs to accept the zero option of a trans kid or a dead kid? And obviously, there is not going to be much data about the long-term outcome of this recent fad -- but I predict that it will not be good.
