    I'm in the middle of a 15 day off stretch, fly a 4 day, 6 days off, fly a 4 day, 17 days off.*

    You people work too hard.




    * I do have vacation in Nov/Dec.

    4 days?  In a row?!  Fuck that.

  2. I hate camp cooking.  If I want well-cooked food I'll stay home.  If I can't cook it with boiling water in my JetBoil cup, I'm not cooking it.  

    I take my JetBoil, a couple Sea-To-Summit expandable bowls, a spork, some freeze dried backpacker meals, oatmeal, starbucks Via instant coffee packets, tortillas, summer sausage, and trail mix.  Same menu almost every camping trip.  Works for me.

    Our scouts are responsible for cooking their own meals.  It seems like the younger ones show up gung-ho with a big extravagent menu planned and a huge assortment of dishes.  They ask their dad for help and dad smiles and says, "Go see you patrol leader about that." and goes back to his nap.  The older scouts pretty much all have adopted the minimalist approach after dealing with the mess of logistics with a big menu a few times too many.  We have one kid who only shows up with peanut butter and a few apples.  That's literally all he eats for two days, peanut butter by the spoonful and apples.

    Any news yet on when Beto will be ready for a debate?

    You sound as fucking stupid as Cruz. Beto has said he’s ready as soon as Cruz agrees to reasonable terms.  Cruz wants it only on his topics, at the location of his choosing, at the time of his choosing. 

    Only one candidate is running this campaign scared. Scared enough to be calling in the guy who shit all over him and his family to fire up the base.

    Check out the documentary, "The Bandit." Covers Burt and Hal Needham's history together and the making of "Smokey and the Bandit." Good stuff.

    Hal Needham was a stuntman before he was a director and he drove the rocket-assisted Trans Am  himself in the bridge jump scene.

    Cooter and Chuy, I’m fat and have terrible lungs, but ride the fuck out of the Southie Trails if y’all ever want to make a ride call some day. Pre-game this Saturday? With the way Texas is playing, my entire Saturday may be open soon.

    I'd love to but I work an odd schedule and most of my rides are M-F mid-mornings.  The Crank 'N Drank is a fun group ride from ATX Bikes on those same trails every Tuesday night followed by beers at the shop.  You'll need a bright light and maybe at least little experience riding after dark.  I've only done it a couple of times but it was fun and a good workout.  They break up into two groups and based on my experience of working my ass off to stay up with the slow group, the fast group must be a bunch of badasses.  

  8. Definitely.  My girlfriend's dad is a proud Mexican.  Fox News all day in his house.  I don't know if it's because he wants to distance himself and his family from the undocumented immigrants or takers of handouts or what, but the idea that most hispanics in Texas are liberal is wishful thinking.  He's a hard worker and he probably thinks that's what the Republican Party is all about.    And he's not the only one.  

  9. I think sometimes this board lives in a bubble.  Most on here are very well informed and know a fair amount about both candidates.  We talk about how many yard signs we see, but take a minute to think about every yard with no sign.  There's probably a fair amount of the population that recognizes Beto's and Cruz' names but has no idea who they really are or what they're about.  A large number of Texans are going to vote Cruz just because there's an R by his name or a Z at the end of it.  They might have changed their mind if they knew more about the candidates... but they don't and they don't really give a shit.   It's a very small segment of the population that is in tune as this board, or any board for that matter.

  10. Watching the Rewind show right now and Collin Johnson just said "Losing a game doesn't make you a loser."  Uhh... yeah it does.  It's kind of the literal definition of the word.  Now you don't have to be a loser all season, but each time you lose a game you most certainly are a loser that day.   There are winners and losers every week and you are absolutely one or the other with no in-between.

    Maryland schedules us as their cupcake.

    This is the type of game that will serve as fuel for the rest of the season. This year will be special, this team will be special.

    Special. Yes. Like short bus special. 

     

    Look you can love your team and think they suck shit at the same time. I don’t want them to suck shit. I want them to be great. But calling it like it is doesn’t  make someone less of a fan. We are not special. Things are not looking up. There’s nothing to be optimistic about.  We have sucked for a very long time and we still suck until we prove we don’t suck anymore.  And the only way to prove that is winning a bunch of games. Until we win a bunch of games we fucking suck.   Hook em Horns and God Bless Texas.

  13. It’s almost like y’all are surprised. We sucked 5 years ago, 4 years ago, 3 years ago, 2 years ago, and we sucked last year.

    What in the fuck was anyone expecting? And why?

    Because we looked good in the spring game playing against our own shitty selves?  

     

     

     

  14. Beto needs to rent JerryWorld for a massive townhall and put in a call statewide, hell nationwide, to fill that motherfucker up on the same day that orange-faced shitbag comes to Texas for a Cruz rally

  15. It’s at almost every elementary school in Austin now.  It’s an octagon pit with wooden waist-high walls.  The whole class gets in and they slap a kickball at each other and off the walls while jumping over and around the ball.  Free-for-all.  No catching, no kicking. If it hits your legs you’re out.  Last man standing wins.  No idea where the name came from.  It’s serious business for 2nd-4th graders

    The plan is to go into Austin Executive.  That will keep me out of Charlie completely.  All of my x-country solos so far have been into Charlie, so I'm not too intimidated even if I did go into KAUS.  

    I’ve never been into Executive so i don’t know the fuel and FBO situation but Georgetown and San Marcos are also good options.  Good luck on the ride.  If the examiner falls asleep, don’t wake them up.
