  1. Little league coach out in Katy catches a stray bullet from a nearby shooting range.
  2. Happy first day of Autumn. To mark the occasion, we'll be a featuring a high of 98 in Austin and 70% humidity in Houston!
  3. 2 more unseasonably hot, muggy days ahead, but decent rain chances Wednesday as a weak front moves southward. Should actually start to feel like late September once some drier air settles in late Wednesday. The stretch from Thursday-Sunday is looking good.
  4. We're getting some Sichuan food in the hood. Saw there's a Cooking Girl supposed to open up next month at Stomping Grounds.
  5. Just make it to Wednesday!
  6. Looks like ~6 more days of Extended Summer ahead before hopefully transitioning to somewhat closer to seasonal temps. Gonna be warm and muggy until then, especially to start next week. Outside chance that Monday (ironically the first day of "Autumn") we'll see our highest high and highest low of the rest of the year. Forecast of 98/76 in Austin, 93/78 in Houston.
  7. I came down with something this week. Either a mild cold or some lesser strain of COVID. Severe sinus pressure starting Monday night. Congestion and sinus drainage Tuesday, still present but milder yesterday. Just some residual phlegm left to expel today and feel almost back to normal. Was still able to work out each day as I never really felt "sick," though I didn't feel like I was at 100% so I went less than full effort. No headache, body aches, or fever at any point. Mild fatigue at worst.
  8. King for closer?!?!?!?! 4 batters faced, 4 outs.
  9. Someone please photoshop me a "Ohh you almost had it" meme. Put an Astros hat on the fisherman and a silver boot/playoff spot on the end of his line. TIA.
  10. King got away with a meatball to Moore. All's well that ends well though.
  11. Countdown update: 45 days out from Opening Day!
  12. Haynesville is still pretty busy ATM, but I'd imagine it would pick up a little bit more. Also Utica and the gassier areas of the EF maybe.
  13. Although EIA has been bearish on oil, they're quite bullish on natty in the short-term: Latest average price per MMBtu forecasts: Q3 '25: $3.04 Q4 '25: $3.72 Q1 '26: $4.25 Q2 '26: $3.64 Q3 '26: $4.26 Q4 '26: $4.99
  14. If you feel like the seasons have shifted, you might be on to something.
  15. I was hoping for 4-2 on this homestand and then "not play like bitches" on our final road trip vs. the bottom of our division.
  16. With 2 outs in the 8th, nobody on, 6-1 lead, Eynel and Abreu did the following before getting the final out: BB HR 6-3 1B 2B 6-4 Pitching Change BB 1B 6-5
  17. A classic Redford story, by his buddy, Mike Nichols, talking about how he couldn't consider casting him in The Graduate:
  18. Damn, just looked at Amarillo forecast and I'm jealous. Highs in mid 80's, lows in high 50's coming up Sat-Tue
  19. Yeah, this is what I was getting at. I've developed major envy for parts of the country that have distinct, defined seasons. I'm not even just talking about up north or in the mountain states. It starts getting pretty nice this time of year in places like Atlanta, Charlotte, Nashville.....etc. Pretty much anywhere north of Dallas.
  20. Probably a smarter business model for the neighborhood than just being a traditional lunchtime BBQ spot.
  21. I'm a lot more tolerant of Summer when it's July and August. Less so in the middle of September.
  22. Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle dominated the box office this weekend. $70M in US and Canada, over $400M international so far. I'll wait a few months until its available to stream, but that's pretty cool to see.
  23. Had to step outside for a second before going to bed last night. 81 degrees with a feels like of 87 at 11 pm. This shit getting tedious. Hope everyone enjoyed that nice 60-hour stretch from last Sunday morning until Tuesday night. Looks like it'll be a while 'til we get another dose.
  24. Altuve absolutely pissed on that one. Team has some fire under their ass tonight.
