  1. This is a beautiful dish that exemplifies the spirit of this thread. It says, “I have nothing else to live for.”
  2. We got an 11-month-old hound/husky just before Thanksgiving, and busting 10,000 steps since then has been a breeze.
  3. ISIS has no answer for those rubber curbs. Well, done Austin.
  4. He’s going to tell Sark the best hotels in San Antonio for the Alamo Bowl. You can’t put a value on that kind of wisdom.
  5. Why do we get the feeling you've been waiting for quite some time to post about that fantasy?
  6. For those undergrads in the 1990’s who knew of him, Prof. Alan Sager taught some constitutional pre-law-type courses, and he was polarizing to put it mildly; many considered him an flat-out asshole. But his courses worked my ass off, he was generous enough to pay me as a pseudo-TA my last semester, and I credit him for better preparing me for law school. As it relates to Trudy’s, despite his asshole reputation, Sager would hold office hours there, where any students were invited to talk about the coursework and exam prep, and often other trivial matters such as sports and Blazing Saddles (one of his favorite movies), over several margaritas. That’s how I was introduced to Trudy’s, and that’s how I’ll remember it.
  7. Tell me more about this concept of verification.
  8. What if - and believe me this is hypothetical - but what if he was offered some kind of a stock option equity sharing program. Would that do anything for him?
  9. Wishing him the best in the league. He's been our best receiver all year, and performed so much better than Isaiah Bond, whom many thought would be our No. 1 WR.
  10. Nice looking weiner. #nohomo,#nttawwt
  11. Maybe the exception is something like cranberry juice, which my wife and I try to consume on a regular basis. It has a lot of nutritional benefits, and I imagine it's harder to get those and not as pleasant if you try to consume the whole berries. And I'm talking 100% cranberry juice, not the Ocean Spray-type crap with added sugars and fillers.
  12. Same for me. It's become ritual to start my afternoon of gumbo cooking with a spatula in one hand stirring the roux and a beer in the other.
  13. I’ve been meaning to branch out and explore German cooking, but have never gotten around to doing it. That looks damn tasty.
  14. Maiden voyage for gluten-free gumbo. The recipe I used for the roux called for tomato paste right as the roux turns to peanut butter color. It’s weird, and you need to work through the odd consistency before you add the trinity. But it was a hit in my household.
  15. Colt McCoy and Jerrod Heard weren’t at UT at the same time.
  16. In less playing time Manning seemed to throw a lot more to Wingo. I don’t think there’s a flight risk there.
