That was intense.
Got the weather alert about 6:15, no real time to do anything. Lost power around 7.
We're in Montrose and was able to go to HEB to pick up something to eat, wine, beer and ice...so weird the blocks immediately west of us all had power...we're still in the dark.
Luckily it wasn't blazing hot last night and could sleep with the windows open.
Some of the videos I've seen of downtown are crazy. Wells Fargo building was shredded by what looked like a tornado

Have you looked into J. Hilburn?
They come to you and measure etc and you get to pick your fabric/style/collar/buttons etc..
Some cities have actual stores, but I don't think Austin is one of them. We have a couple here in Houston.

Man, if Goode Co was your best BBQ, your BBQ sucked.
The renaissance is real.
It was a sad state of affairs back in the day, but Goode Co. was better than anything else in town. I grew up on the west side of town and we would occasionally make it out to Dozier;s in Fulshear, but Goode Co was a few notches above the normal spots like Demeris or fucking Luther's
Glad times have changed for all cities. That Austin list is sad too.

So, it's a better-than-average offense that strands too many runners, and therefore is only average at scoring runs, combined with one of the worst pitching staffs in the league.
Yeah, that'll get you 10 games under.
Imagine how they would be if your 3rd baseman could get the ball out of the infield.
He's killing this team hitting in the middle of the lineup.
Remember in little league when there were players that were considered "automatic outs"?
That's Bregman and he should be hitting 9th until he figures it out.

57 year old black male. Convicted felon. Indicted for aggravated assault the day before he murdered Jeff. Out on bond.
Perp has lived all over the country. I just ran his Harris County records. Plenty of hits.
Disgusting. I'll post his name once he is arrested.
Jesus Christ.
Sadly I assumed the bolded above. Anyone that would shoot and kill someone over a fucking McDonald's refund needs to be removed from the planet.

I guess there is something in the air...
Just received/signed an offer as well!
Similar to @DToro I voluntarily left a long time job with a great company in Jan 2021 to explore other opportunities, unaware of just how awful the job search was going to be. I naively thought that someone with 20 years experience in sales/account management would be a cake walk finding a new role. Couldn't even get a sniff.
Over the last 3 years, I've worked 3 contract jobs in 3 different industries, none of which I wanted to be in or have the contract extended. It was brutal. My confidence was shot, my marriage was on the ropes. Getting your teeth kicked in on the reg by computer programs/algorithms or ignored by 23 year old HR folks or recruiters takes it's toll.
My only advice and to be fair I didn't do this as much as I should have....use your friends. Use your connections and your friends connections. I didn't do it as much as I could've out of embarrassment/shame. I wanted to do it "on my own". What a fucking idiot I was.
That being said, there is light at the end of the tunnel. Stay the course. It's going to happen.
I can finally breathe.

After redshirting in his first season with the Hawkeyes and suffering a significant injury, Bostick returned for the 2023 season. Appearing in five games last year for Iowa but recording zero statistics.
It's that type of dynamic player the ags need to bring in to replace Evan Stewart.

I imagine it's only a matter of time before they pick the dude up.
Between the inside of McDonalds, the parking lot, traffic cams etc...there are cameras fucking everywhere.

A guy my wife and I were friends with was shot and killed at a McDonalds 6 p.m. Saturday night. Location was on Katy Freeway near Chimney Rock. I suspect I am not the only one on the board who knows him. He was an attorney, mid 40s, went to Memorial High School where he was a very good QB until he got hurt, and went to Texas undergrad.
Details are sketchy at this point. Apparently the shooter was yelling at the McDonalds cashier about a refund and our friend tried to calm him down. The shooter got mad and shot him before fleeing the scene. One report says the shooting happened inside. And one says outside. Sounds kind of like River Phoenix's character's demise in Stand By Me.
Police are attempting to locate the shooter.
Jeff was a good dude and it really sucks that he's gone...Especially given the circumstances of trying to diffuse the situation. We ran in intersecting friend circles and I'm a couple years older than he was. Sad for his family and close friends.
People have so little regard for human life, it's baffling.

Since @closetojumping mentioned it up thread (It's also one of my faves)
This one never made it on air, but somehow the dress rehearsal leaked.

Right. Just wondering who is here already. Too lazy to look up each name one at a time. And there seems to be no consensus link.

Auburn West is pretty good.
If Texas is playing in the CFP, or playing for the NT, or, God forbid, winning the NT, I agree that they will be absolutely shitting themselves in panic. These guys involved in and around the top over there are trending towards Euro football hoodlum type of fanaticism. Particularly if they have the season I think they're going to have, notwithstanding surprising and crazy shit in this portal window that somehow benefits them.
What's your O/U for wins for them? 6.5/7?

We're still without power in Montrose. We seem to be in a weird little pocket as the only couple of blocks in the area without power.
Slept on couch downstairs last night as upstairs was considerably warmer.
This blows.
