  1. Still managing to rack up W's with basically 1/3 of our lineup occupied by replacements of replacements.
  2. Sprained ankle. Almost certainly an IL stint.
  3. It was gross earlier before the rain though. Temp only hit 91 or so, but all that rain from earlier in the week started evaporating and "oppressively humid" is still not sufficient to describe it.
  4. After '23, it's not likely you'll ever hear me say anything about too much rain, but I think we're good here in Houston for a few days. Wasn't expecting it to rain today, but it just started raining sideways in the middle of lunch and looks like another big cell is heading this way around 3.
  5. I mean, it'd be great if they could re-use the water in additional frac'ing operations.
  6. Cool drone video of flooding at the Comal tube chute. River looking like a couple million gallons of Yoohoo.
  7. Like she's 62.
  8. Big ol' glob of storms forming from Rocksprings to Llano on the radar right now. Looks to slowly creep east and drop a bunch of rain over the lakes and Greater Austin area between 9 pm and 2 am.
  9. $68 at market close today.
  10. Update? Did y'all end up selling?
  11. On the topic of morning vs. evening workouts, I'm probably a bit weird in that I do both during an average week. MON-TUE: cardio and lifting at office gym in the evening. WED: cardio and lifting at neighborhood YMCA in the morning. Usually hardest work out of the week. THU: rest day from lifting but evening cardio session at office FRI-SAT: morning cardio and lifting at YMCA SUN: Nothing.
  12. What's the point of being the richest man in the world if you're still going to be a groveling pussy? What is it about Donald Trump that turns the people in his orbit into craven, spineless jellyfish?
  13. Made a short trip up to my lease on Friday. Main point of the trip was to load up my buddy's UTV on Saturday morning and take it in to finally get serviced, but decided I would try to get in a pig hunt on Friday evening since we have 1 feeder running at the moment. Let's just say that did not go as planned. Was miserably hot, but I grabbed my little portable fan, stuck 2 ice cold beers in my backpack and headed down to the stand. Opened the door and saw 2 active wasp nests, at least 2 dozen daddy longlegs crawling around and a small scorpion on the inside of the door. Needless to say I decided to pass and headed back to the cabin. Set off a few bug bombs in that stand and another nearby before leaving.
  14. WTI up to $64.60 this morning. If it holds, would be the highest close since 4/17.
  15. ^^Posted multiple times in both this thread and the LOL thread.
  16. Roughly 12 years ago, when my wife and I were still just dating, we were on a long drive back home after spending the week at her family's timeshare in PCB. Somewhere in fucking Alabama, my wife says we should stop for lunch and try this BBQ place her family always stopped at on their drive back to Baton Rouge. We get there and the first thing I notice after stepping out of the car is the complete absence of the smell of smoke. The above would likely have been a vast improvement. Blandest, most laughable excuse for BBQ I've ever had the displeasure of eating. I swear to god, the sausage was just store-bought party links stewing in generic BBQ sauce in a crock pot. I've never been so angry at a meal in my life.
  17. i get by fine with a $25 rechargeable battery off Amazon. Goes 3+ months on a full charge.
  18. FYI, Academy has a bunch of cellular game cameras on sale this week. Would recommend this deal if you're in the market: 2-pack of Flex G-36 for $99. The SpyPoint app is easy to use and cheap (of free if you only want 100 pics/month). https://www.academy.com/p/spypoint-flex-g36-360-mp-cellular-game-cameras-2-pack
  19. A&D market has come back to life with several multi-billion$ deals announced in the past few days. EOG making a big bet in the Utica, buying Encino and 675K acres for $5.6B Viper (Diamondback's mineral-owning subsidiary) is buying Sitio Royalties for $4.1B.
  20. Final season release dates announced with a couple shots of teaser footage. 4 episodes the day before Thanksgiving. 3 episodes on Xmas Day. Finale on New Years Eve.
  21. Mariners have been outscored 13-1 in the 10th inning in the last 24 hours!!!
  22. Long time no post in this thread. Couple things I've been enjoying lately: New solo track from Fugitive. Sidenote: As a huge Power Trip fan, I wish they'd finally go ahead and decide what they're doing. Either be a new iteration of Power Trip, or move forward as Fugitive. Don't just release an occasional single as one band and play legacy shows as the other. Put out a goddamn album as one or the other! New single out from overdue upcoming album form Byzantine. Always have a hard time defining this band. Proggy technical metal-adjacent? Whatever they are, I dig it. Anyway, I love the intro riff and the bridge + solo at 3:17 is killer. And finally Urne, another proggy metal band I can't really describe. After I heard this song I had to dig deeper and most of their older stuff is pretty much just straight Helmet knock-offs. Then they hooked up with Joe Duplantier form Gojira to produce their most recent album and found a new gear.
  23. Anyone else feel like thus far this team is the Bizzarro World version of the '23 Astros? 2023: The worst good (on paper) team. Plus offense, mediocre pitching. Elite on the road, below mediocre at home. Extremely un-clutch. If it's late in the game and we don't already have a lead, we ain't winning. 2025: The best bad (on paper) team. Mediocre offense, plus pitching. Kings of Daikin Park, peasants on the road. Comebacks and walk-offs galore.
  24. Darryl Kile, 1993 no-hitter (almost PG) vs. NYM. 9 IP, 83 pitches, 1 BB, 0 H, 1 unearned run.
  25. Yainer just had the game of a Catcher's lifetime. 9 innings of your starter tying the franchise record for fewest pitches in a CG. Gun down the likely go-ahead run in the 9th with a laser throw to 3B, then come up in the bottom and hit a walk-off HR.
