  1. Probably a few more ruffians at UTD vs UT Austin I imagine. I had soccer practice at UTD when i was a kid in mid 80's, Classic League played most of the games there and it was a windy ass patch of grass that place was built on, 3rd and 4th year only college back then. All grown up now, protests and everything
  2. I say let em protest away. When it crosses the line in to impeding others, break it up. Tent city comes back, break it up, stop me from entering the PCL, break it up. I just hope the demonstrators have done their homework on who they are cheering for.
  3. Seemed like a perfect spot to pitch out with 0-1 count and the runner at first with a huge lead. Hmm. Next pitch hit and run and the bunt gets him home.
  4. Finished this last night. Pulitzer finalist from a few years ago. 1800's teens to 20's or so, story about an immigrant from Sweden and his quest to journey from CA to NYC to find his brother. Has elements of Cormac from Blood Meridian in the descriptive way he portrays the West, though not that difficult to read. Not long, pretty quick read, really enjoyed it.
  5. Circles with Claire (sp) Danes is awful. Terrible plot and it has some big actors in it, but they play really stupid characters. Made it through 3 ep and threw in the towel for the Baby Reindeer show. Stay away from Circles or be warned, one. The Reindeer show is pretty interesting so far, but i would have told her to get lost a long fucking time ago, but I suppose I can see & understand why/how he didnt. He makes a lot of brutal mistakes along the way trying to tip toe around things.
  6. Pearl Jam was a solid interview, though they are a little boring. Eddie is great, always enjoy him when he's on and they still sound great.
  7. Just make a Bill in Sinton or Rpongett call out and we'll know you are one of the olds like us from Hornfans
  8. We’re hoping for that. We have a 3 BR, but now we’re thinking to making 3rd BR into an office, catch all room, etc… but we have been told the contract nurses may come in pairs
  9. This is great! Thank you. My wife has great taste so the furnishings will be good/high quality, but we’ll keep ROI in mind too. We won’t skimp. I’ll keep the thread posted as we get closer to going to market with the property…we fell ass backwards into the medial overlay district.
  10. Hell he intimidated me from a safe 20-40" from my monitor.
  11. Anyone have any experience with STR to traveling nurses? We bought a small house recently with intention of a flip, paid $110K cash for a 3/1. Needs a new roof, interior paint, flooring (LVP) and some cosmetic improvements, nothing major, new woodwork on front large front porch. Corner lot, no neighbors next to or behind. We know the owner of those lots. Last week we found out it's in a medical overlay district 2-3 blocks from a growing regional hospital. We had planned on flipping it, but once we found out about the Medical Overlay, we thought about renting it to a medical oriented practice , but after contacting a staffing (for lack of better word) company for nurses, we think it may draw $3K a month. We are in the process of acquiring furniture. Mrs JDHorn is a realtor so we are privy to many people looking to unload furniture. We have acquired a 40" Samsung, 4 beds and we generally have an attic full of stuff she uses for staging. Does anyone have thoughts on renting to nurses? My limited research shows they do extended runs at hospitals, 90 days- 6 mos and sometimes longer if they like the gig. The place is 30 min to the gulf of mexico, couple hours to New Orleans or FL panhandle beaches...not a bad area, a little rural but im thinking $3K would be the number if we got 2 or maybe 3 nurses (would be tight with 1 bathroom), though I imagine there are facilities at the hospital too?
  12. Yeah I watch the US10Y closely as well. Put a chunk of an inheritance in Vanguard Inflation Protected Fund several years ago thinking it would just keep pace with inflation and protect the principle. Deposited the funds and forgot about it. First time in my life to put $$ in a "Bond" fund. Went to look at it recently and i'm down $40K and further research indicates it's all tied to the 10yr. That's what I get for deviating from my Index stock fund strategy. Got to wait it out now, its all in an inherited IRA anyway, but got to start taking money soon.
