  1. While I think I’d be pretty good at the ownership/management of a restaurant , my parents always told my brother and me to never get in the restaurant business and I appreciate them for that. My dad was the chef and my mom ran the front of house/books for all those years so that was fortuitous for them, but even if you are a chef/owner (and a good chef, cook, whatever at that), there are just way too many variables to stake your livelihood in that business, imo. On a related note, if sunbird can manage quality, which I think they should be able to, I bet Longview will welcome that level of bbq with open arms now that they’re in town. That place was a good wasteland when I lived there for s few years.
  2. I grew up in a restaurant that my parents ran for 43 years before retiring last December. Worked almost every job in that place as a child through adulthood… washed dishes, bussed tables, waited tables, almost every role in the kitchen… I say all that to say on a certain level I know what’s involved and how fucking hard it is to run a restaurant, much less a successful one. I worked at Sysco East Texas for a couple years after college to pay for going back for more school, and the amount of customers I had that had no fucking clue what they were doing and wouldn’t listen to some fresh faced college kid was probably 50%+. Not every fucking idiot that can cook a good burger or good bbq needs to open a restaurant, especially the small family business variety that is most bbq. That shit is hard as hell to be successful in.
  3. I can’t bring myself to even listen to anything he has to say, so I’m unsure if the content. My opinion is just that he’s a pompous, self-aggrandizing douchebag. Doesn’t surprise at all that he “gifted” them all his book lol
  4. What an insufferable douchebag
  5. Egg, canadian bacon, american cheese sammy. Probably my favorite simple breakfast - reminds me of my dad taking my brother and me to school in the mornings when we were younger. We would stop at sonic for breakfast once a week for ham/egg/cheese toasters. The tastes and smells put me right back in his jeep in 8th grade.
  6. Recipe, por favor? I love shrimp creole, but have never found a recipe that turns out better than just pretty good. That looks great.
  7. yeah I was two rows up from that dude and he tried to talk shit to me at one point and I just told him to look at the scoreboard. I hope he took the worst of whatever happened. Was it an older guy that threw punches, or the big group of Hispanic longhorns right behind him? Old guy a few rows up offered my cousins 5 year old son $20 to punch him 😂
  8. Doing whatever it takes to be in contention for a conference championship and playoffs?
  9. Yeah… told several UH fans I appreciated that their game experience wasn’t over produced to hell, except the annoying stadium dj guy but that was pretty negligible.
  10. LOL I was there early before we moved at half time. Was the UH guy the one in the white shirt talking MAD shit? That was mostly a UT crowd and I overheard lots of people saying they were going to hit that dude in the face. Like row 6 seat 25 or so?
  11. And Mack beat stoops, stoops beat Mack, Herman beat Riley… shit we shut them out last year. What’s your point?
  12. Anyway, anyone want to see some shit you’d never see in DKR? Couple girls in front of us were ripping blunts and rather than clapping/yelling for big downs, took to twerking. IMG_3430.mov IMG_0996.mov
  13. My wife pulled out a new toy for our 2 year old this morning and I can’t help but laugh at this shit. This was only a small part of it (the beef Franks had legit wrapping/label too) but the indoctrination is strong with HEB and I’m here for it. We just so happen to have several of these items in our fridge/pantry
  14. Who would some of y’all rather have? You are acting like we don’t have an all star coaching staff (save maybe 2-3 spots we could upgrade?) look at OU today, look at UW tonight, USC, etc. Everyone was “mother fucking” Harbaugh for his Michigan disaster til all the sudden his culture and recruiting and coaches clicked. We won the fucking game, Jesus lord.
  15. Lotta sandy vaginas in here
  16. Well, the game is at 3, not 11:59, I do know that much. The ones I bought from stub hub were 100% digital and had to be added to my Apple wallet basically.
  17. Point me to where this conversation has been has if I’ve missed it, but what’s the best way to get to the stadium tomorrow, fellow houstonians? I live in town so can drive if that’s best but if there’s an easy spot to hop on the metro/or uber is better i am not opposed.
  18. can you explain this to where it makes sense? I’m as avid a CFB nerd as there is, and maybe I’m a few drinks in, but this is gobbledegook to me.
  19. A) no shit, could’ve told whoever OccupyLF that before this game even started B) where would that stupid idea even come from? Conference record tie still goes to higher ranking anyway, yes?
  20. I saw this on Occupy LF Twitter post but this doesn’t make any sense… why would they need to lose 2 b12 games? Assuming we both win out we will be ranked higher.
  21. Chicken fly lice
  22. I think they were just the HEB “submarine” buns. They held up really well.
  23. If you listen to most of the talking heads and their podcasts (Klatt, for example) it’s already being talked about with us and Michigan jumping them, if not more.
