  1. Correct and the city is full of amazing sites and gems that are completely ignored by the masses... and that's where we spend our time. As someone who has been to Rome over a dozen times to visit family, etc., I still haven't been to the Vatican Museums. I'll live. I still haven't been to Franklin, either.
  2. It is ball shriveling cold here... It will only last a couple of days so I'll allow it
  3. Maybe my eyes were scorched or I was squinting to not look
  4. Fat black guy? Last time was a fat white guy. Equal opportunity.
  5. I'm taking a short walk through the neighborhood so I can feel this come through and enjoy every minute of it.
  6. To be honest, they both are terrible. You can hate one and the other.
  7. Black Angels DJing earlier today at the Levitation Lounge on E 6th
  8. Was at an event in East Austin around 5 PM and a cell absolutely poured on us... and then it just wrapped up and the sun came out. Felt like a summer pop-up
  9. I would totally buy one. Its like having a pair of farted on Astrodome seats.
  10. Can confirm from first-hand reports of a friend of mine that went to visit family. Said it was really crowded. I think Rome is stuck in that mode now, as well. Used to be you could go in the spring or winter months and it was "relatively" chill. Sorry for my family in Rome but we just don't go back there. They may be celebrating that, though.
  11. How did this turn out? “One of the first bills I intend to file would require every member of Congress and their families to receive their healthcare only at VA hospitals,” he said. “The debate would highlight an important point that our veterans are not treated with the respect and dignity they deserve, and are not receiving the proper benefits they’ve earned. Yet, members of Congress live relatively like kings. It’s upside down and needs to change. https://www.baptistmessage.com/mike-johnson-faith-family-freedom-motivate-run-seat-u-s-congress/
  12. Back to the topic, I have to wonder who was yelling at the pilot to "just take off!!! Do you know who I am!?" https://www.cnn.com/2023/10/24/us/houston-hobby-airport-grounded-flights-jets-collision/index.html
  13. Man, I love this especially since I know that area well. What's funny is I read it and envisioned Briagrove Park and then realized he was talking about Briagrove which is four miles closer to town. Reminds me of a conversation I had with someone about our old neighborhood in Houston... when they bought a house there in the 50s, people thought they were crazy because it was past what was then called Camp Hudson... a boy scout camp which is where areas like Hudson Oaks and Hudson Bend are now located. This is before my time but https://www.hudsonoakstownhomessection2.com/remembering-camp-hudson/
  14. His beliefs are 100% compatible with what every Southern Baptist preacher especially the bigger churches like Second Baptist in Houston. He's perfectly aligned with what is preached there today.
  15. Is there a link to this meltdown? I don't have a Twitter account anymore and can't see if there is a link in the comments.
  16. Yeah, these people drive me crazy... sorry... especially in Austin which is a relatively safe city, particularly if you're not hanging out on 6th street past midnight or over by 183 on the north side of town. I think you can make a case to some extent in Houston but the people who coooonstantly complain about how bad Austin is really need to just stay home, cower while ignoring the lawn or move out to Llano or somewhere deep in the hill country. Enough whining from these people...
  17. The Far Out shows that I wanted for tonight sold out. Wife hemmed and hawed too long. Was thinking of the Bully show at Parish tonight but decided against it. So, I was going to buy tickets to the Beach Fossils lineup with Turnover and Being Dead at Stubb's and then realized... Sunday night + Stubb's outside + temps in the 40s = my wife will kill me. So... opted for what should be an eclectic but very cool lineup at Empire...
  18. Told my wife the story. She was not amused.
  19. Honestly, my parents are older but I must give you trouble about this. But I'm sorry.
  20. You're thinking of Mosque's Fried Chicken. Mmmm... chicken...
