  1. My mom has been in town the last few days and wanted to take me to lunch for my birthday. She lives in deep East Texas and wanted to go somewhere “very tony”, and I know she can’t get good Indian food up there so i suggested Musaafer. It was pretty damn pricey but man, holy shit was all the food awesome and the atmosphere was great. Definitely not your every day type place but IMO the experience was well worth it. Really really cool spot, especially sitting in the mirror room.

    Fuck Kyrie, that fucking douche. My fellow Massholes will welcome that cocksucker back to TD Garden in proper fashion. Ready to hang banner 18. 

    Yeah whatever bro

    Does Pinkerton ever have lunch specials? It’s a haul from my office, but doable as long I’m on the road by 11. 

    When I went yesterday I saw that they had a little sign up for chicken thighs but I’m not sure if that’s a newer regular menu item or just something they had posted up. If I’m going out for bbq it’s usually on the weekend so I may not be the best person to answer that question. Their Instagram may have some info if they do though.

  4. The jalapeno cheese rice at Pinkertons is an A1 side - for me it’s up there with Truth’s tater tot casserole and dare I say the JM cheesy squash (ok probably not THAT good but still…)  I know there are some major Truth fanbois out there but I think I still prefer Pinkertons by a smidge.

    I played and watched just about every sport growing up but never grew up around hockey. My freshman year at Texas (2009-2010), I played a lot of NHL on XBOX with my suite mates at Jester and ever since have wanted to try to get into hockey and have been very intrigued with the game but have just never had the bandwidth to try to get into another sport. Before this current season, a friend of mine expressed the same sentiment and we vowed to be Stars fans and start getting into hockey this season but didn't follow through and didn't watch a single game this season. Never watched a full game before but I've watched the entirety of the last 3 Stars games now and I think im a hockey fan now. Idk how I'm so invested already but I'm pacing around my living room, yelling, stressing, like I've been a fan my whole life already. I still don't know shit, couldn't tell you what a forecheck is or what offsides is but I'm all in on this shit, playoff hockey is so much fun, go Stars!

    NHL playoffs are probably the most exciting, nail biting, everything counts sporting event in existence, IMO.

    Since the May 16 storm, CenterPoint says it has: 
    Replaced more than 800 miles of electrical wires, which is farther than the distance from Houston to El Paso.
    Replaced more than 700 transformers & approx. 2,000 poles
    Restored nearly 900,000 customers as of noon, 5/23

    Lots of the crews that came in are going to be kept around to do maintenance work for the next month. If there was damage assessed that wasn’t necessarily outage related but still needed work, it will be getting taken care of.

    True. But OKC is healthy. So is Minny and Denver.

    Dallas seems to be struggling with it more than any other in the west.

    But yeah, doesn’t matter. It’s the playoffs. They gotta play with who they got

    Denver is healthy? Lol.

    Hurt vs injured applies here - is there anyone important actually missing games? Full disclosure I’m ignorant on the subject but Dallas is actually missing a key rotation player, and one just came back from missing basically the whole first round. 
    If you want to just talk hurt, I don’t see Murray or Jokic  getting the shit beat out of them every night like Luka. Joker’s scratches on his pasty ass arms don’t count.

    Sorry to derail this thread so this will be my last post here and any further ones will be on the Surly kids who didn’t go to UT one…

    Yea, never had been to Fayettenam until last year but the old town by campus is great and reminded me of Austin the the 80’s when I attended UT and will probably buy a house there for the kid to live in next year.  

    @irishtexan - yea, kid does manual labor as a job now and benches 300# at18 (no ‘roids)  But won’t need to swing a shovel as he can use his trust fund to hire someone to dig a ditch for him if needed…

    Cool story bro

    Solid choice in the green accent wall… had the same color in the nursery/baby room for both of my guys. 
     

    I am irrationally proud that my 2.5 year old’s favorite shirt is currently his “go horns” shirt. I taught him how to do the hook em a little while back and he’s finally able to get his fingers to do it right. Multiple times a day he will just throw up a hook em and yell “go hooor-wuns!”. I just missed it in the picture, but he did it while riding his horsie like it was south Austin’s mom.

    I first found it at a farmer's market by my house. Shit's some of the best salsa I've ever tasted. Turns out it's a dad who wanted to teach his girl how to start a small business. It sorta blew up, and now you can get it in select stores in Houston.  He absolutely has videos of him making massive batches of this stuff in his home kitchen. 

    Pretty sure I bought this at that Heights farmers market a while back and can confirm this shit is delicious.
