    Pizza

    lulz, no, it's $7.50 for 3 rolls.
  2. I actually never got that vaccine. I had severe allergies and my pediatrician thought the risk was too high. So, I look forward to the next smallpox outbreak in the US, which should be within the year.
  3. F'n Tories.
  4. Heathrow doesn't have UPS + gensets? No way.
  5. OK, so we're up to one. Some would call it "the exception that proves the rule".
  6. I know he's "only" 62, but that's a rough 62.
  7. Brisket is decent, turkey is better. Ribs are a no-go. As you say, sammiches and whatnot are reliable.
  8. 100%. Better food by a good margin. Alternatively, pick up some 'Q from a great joint before you have to be at the service, put it in coolers, and tailgate afterwards. True Texas.
  9. Whatever happens, pass on Salt Lick at the Diamond.
  10. In general I think Duritz is a putz, but that first CC record is fantastic. I've seen them live a few times and he just can't be bothered to stick to the melodies. Drives me crazy.
  11. No expert, but I've owned a few. As long as you're comparing the same body size, you're basically paying for more expensive wood and decoration as the numbers go up. Price doesn't necessarily correspond to quality of build or sound quality. I played every guitar in the store in the early aughts, was willing to drop up to $3K or so, and walked away with a $1K Taylor 310. Still have it. Plays like a dream, records well, nice balanced sound.
  12. Impossible. No track record building a P4 program. Hard pass. #surly
  13. I bought an acrylic French press, does a good job, much less risk of cracking it.
  14. Texas is a blueblood in just about every minor sport, along with football and baseball. It's a lot easier to land a whale when you're a blueblood. This hire is gonna be tricky.
  15. You apparently missed one of my criteria.
  16. Find me a great head coach who lacks ego. I'll wait.
  17. "You're making fun of him for attending Tulane?"
  18. It's a little early in the day to be THAT drunk, isn't it? #surlyworkfromhome
  19. Wow, you've really solved the puzzle. Please, tell us more about this "compounding" effect you refer to. The high inflation rates were transitory. Period, end of sentence, full stop. Current inflation rates are within historical norms. Period, end of sentence, full stop. Nobody said fuck all about prices.
  20. On multiple occasions I've seen A&M engineers giddily use "tu" in business meetings with visitors who are UT grads. The Aggies all giggle, the UT grads (visitors or in house) are just disgusted. It's completely inappropriate in an office environment, but there you go.
  21. Well, the number of Texas fans who use "aggy" is miniscule. I never do. I think it's fighting stupid with stupid. The number of Aggies who use "tu" is nearly 100%.
  22. Cool, I'll check it out. I miss some of the stations of my growin' years, although they're probably all different now, and I've never been motivated enough to seek out their apps.
  23. *Gulf of America
  24. So before I check it out, it gives me access to local stations on demand, without having to download a bunch of individual apps?
