  1. Well, the slop continues
  2. I've disagreed with some of your opinions in this thread Bozo but that is not one. IMO the city shot themselves in the foot by going off half cocked on this and pushing through the first facility so quickly. If they would have had some comprehensive plan that had facilities scattered throughout the city like you've advocated for from the beginning they might have been able to sidestep some of the future push back from NIMBY, and actually address other issues like zoning, funding, etc. But ducks in a row is not how Austin gov't operates.
  3. Isn't the saying never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity? I'd eat my hat if Adler actually did that. I really think it's a moot point though, unless the South Austin shelter is hit out of the park every other neighborhood is going to fight like hell to keep this from happening in their district. Given the city's track record running homeless facilities what would you expect the chances of it getting off the ground without some bumps actually is? RE: Kitchen, most recently she ran unopposed IIRC. Much of her district is old (Austin) and thus love her, and probably the majority of the rest of her constituents are young and either a) don't vote at very high rates or b) aren't very informed and went by name recognition.
  4. Oh indeed.
  5. Ya his finishing was just not good but I was hoping as a young player that could be improved. He offered quite a bit elsewhere and really improved his defensive work rate. Good luck to the guy.

  7. Almost to single digit days from the season kickoff.
  8. Anyone ever used Hershey’s shell as a mix in their ice cream maker? Thinking about trying it but also have hard chocolate I could shave and mix in as mentioned up thread.
  9. It's equifax. They already have all your info.
  10. Semi related question: does “sales” count as same industry or does it need to be same as in “medical sales”
  11. This is an interesting subject and not just in Texas. I've spent a bit of time traveling to places like Davenport IA, Columbus IN, Peoria IL. All of which have both white collar jobs in a small/medium size town (as well as blue collar), and all of the folks at those companies lament being able to attract talent for the white collar jobs. The towns all have decent downtowns, with night life and restaurants that are better than average. I grew up in a small town north of Plano so I could make it work in one of those towns, but after living in Austin I'd prefer a real city or the middle of nowhere. Obviously I'm not unique, and would have to go through a divorce before my wife would let me take a job someplace like that.
  12. Thanks for the reminder. Had one last night, can confirm deliciousness
  13. For some reason I thought his was rumpleminze
  14. it's wonderful for furniture, as well as other uses and like the article said, grows relatively quickly. hoping this actually brings them back to being widespread again in my lifetime.
  15. Maybe this has been covered, but it looks like some of those 2x4s are treated. Is that for any reason? Seems unnecessary and added weight compared to standard lumber.

    Omar Gonzales coming on says so much about the state of the team.

    4 guys lined up across the front just standing. Pretty sure that isn’t going to do much

    At least we actually shoot now.
  19. I’m generally more likely to attribute to stupidity if possible, rather than malice.
  20. Can't believe they took off campbell. dude has been torching the guy marking him all game
  21. Arguably? I mean, I'm a homer and all but...

    All these guys are MLS specials. Good enough at something to be above average at that level, but not well rounded enough that they’re not exposed against good opposition

    Milhalovic has better touch than most everyone else out there, but damn he plays dumb.
