  1. 2000 South Congress to 2020 SoCo is analogous. It is called the Short North now and not High St.
  2. It was the typical gentrification story. Gays move in to a rundown neighborhood in a good location inmass and fix everything up. Now only top 20% incomes can afford the area. You can sip wine while strolling between art galleries on High St these days.
  3. Wasn’t there in 2005. The job was a decade later so I wasn’t hitting High St in my late 40s while raising kids outside of having dinner at the tiki bar. The Bridge Park area , Clintonville, or Easton was where we went. CBus is tracking Austin’s progress from about 30 years ago. Same liberal magnet in and conservative area and graduates don’t want to leave. Not on navigable water so heavy industry is tied to railway thus mostly white collar service jobs.
  4. Old enough to have pissed off Akers while I was playing racquetball in Bellmont. Old enough to have had an afternoon Statesman paper route. My father was a Silver Spur 75 years ago.
  5. It’s been 20 years. That shit is all gentrified now. This like expecting to walk into 1985 Austin in 2005.
  6. So, the school is part of the Bishop Estate which is worth over 20 billion. We have good friend in leadership there that my wife trained and they are now in the equivalent of my wife’s role there. How good a friend? We took a working vacation to help them fix their parent’s house, that had been a rental for many years, in Pacific Heights when they hired and returning from the mainland. My wife is a Kailua Surfriders grad. The school still has to deal with government oversight from the trustees scandal that was over 20 years ago.
  7. Texas played 97 d snaps against ASU. Whatever it is Texas good.
  8. This is along the lines of what I’ve been kicking around in my head for a few days. Jaylon turns and makes the block for a pick 6 and Texas wins the SEC CCG. That changes the entire media narrative around this game.
  9. Add to this with not doing the time change in summer daybreak is about 5am and it takes around 90 minutes for the sun to clear mountains to roast you. You can get an early morning run in. I really don’t find summer different from Dallas or Houston. Evaporation works here. Took me a while to realize why I wasn’t sweat soaked. Getting in an 80F pool when it is 115F is same body shock as getting into Barton Springs. 7 months out of the year the weather is fantastic.
  10. Kind of concerned it took this long to get to Only Fans ag.
  11. So, Clemson-Ing?
  12. aggy = Dunning-Kroger effect
  13. TEXAS! FIGHT! Chant drowning it out would be good as then it is the fans and not the University.
  14. First week of the snowbirds return for winter everything was crowded.
  15. Noticed too. He going to have a line trying to hire him if he can’t return to football.
  16. TS- table service QS- quick service
  17. Going to DL for the first time in over 40 years. Career has us in Phoenix so we will drive with it being under 6 hours. It will be the 37th anniversary of our first date and with relocating 3 times in the last 4 years our first couple’s vacation in a few years. Reading mdmost it seems like 3 days of park tickets maybe overkill. But it is what I’ve been thinking being used to WDW. Restaurants/meals. At WDW we always did a nice TS at lunch after hitting rope drop and mixed QS and TS for dinner. Seems like TS for dinner is the better way at DL. Likely to stay on property so choosing between the Grand and DL hotel. Evening light-show/fireworks advice? Dinner package?
  18. She takes all of them. I’m in Maricopa they is very little Trump signs. These are McCain Republicans. People really need to think about how many voted Nikki Haley in the GOP primaries.
  19. Nikki Haley primary votes is where I’d start in trying to divine who crosses over or opts out. How many of those return to the fold?
  20. John McCain Republicans aren’t big on Trump. If women over 65 are breaking heavily for Harris keep in mind AZ has a huge retiree population. Harris takes AZ.
  21. I’d also guess ~5% of registered R leave the top of the ticket blank.
  22. Any seen the Selzer poll breakdown? If it is truly 85% of Iowa women over 65 voting for Harris because of Dobbs this is over.
  23. Until his love fest for Maduro/Venezuela. Cubans had front row seats for that experience already.
