    I have to admit, I'm very curious about what it's like now. I'm sure the music isn't close any of those eras (not even the early 2000s when I was there and we got to see acts like the Murder City Devils, the Toadies, Metric, Polyphonic Spree, Reggie and the Full Effect, Belle & Sebastian, Against Me!, etc. pretty regularly for pretty cheap). And we made it a point see George Clinton annually plus Snoop, Weezer/Jimmy Eat World, the Foo Fighters, and the Smashing Pumpkins when they came (I think that list sounds right? I may have the years mixed up. I too was filled with drugs). My nearing college-age kids still wear shirts for those bands (plus folks like Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Radiohead, the National), so I'm sure there's at least some good music floating around here in Austin that the olds like me just aren't aware of. 

    The massive uptick in corporatization sucks complete ass but it is interesting to me that there are still a lot of great local food options, including some that are still somehow affordable. Plus, while we're on the subject of drugs, any idiot with a credit card (physical or digital), an internet connection, and a mailing address (even a dorm based one) can get pretty much whatever they want shipped them overnight these days - and you don't even have to use the Dark Web because there are a LOT of "research chemicals" sitting in a legal gray zone that are every bit as fun and interesting as the ones they can actually arrest you for - and did I mention that that they're inexpensive? Sometimes very much so.

    Forget Delta 8, 9, whatever - put 65 mg of 4-HO-MET under your tongue or snort 175 mg of 2-Fluorodeschloroketamine some time and tell me you didn't have a completely (mostly) legal religious experience that was just as good as anything you ever got from the very illegal parent chemicals. Throw in some methallylescaline with that 4-HO-MET and... whoa. WAY better than any illegal candy flip you've ever had. There's a HUGE blind spot in federal law for this stuff and the lone attempt to actually sort of fix it was, in my professional legal opinion, very, very much unconstitutionally vague. And it wound up not even applying to the vast majority of these chemicals.

    TV and movies? ¡No problemo! Again, with an internet connection and a password from mom and dad or a buddy and you've got access to whatever you want. Sure, the actual cinema blows. But there are still occasional bright spots. And with respect to TV, there's probably more good shows out there right now, old and new, than even the laziest, most couch-attached college kid could actually sit and binge.   

    Anyway, like I said, I think things here are still interesting and "weird" in ways that olds like me probably haven't anticipated. And in ways that are still very Austin and very UT. So if you'll excuse me, my Fluorexetamine appears to be wearing off and now I'm confused and possibly lost. 

    What’s your favorite era of the dead?

    I respect it. It doesn’t bother me that he uses psychedelics. They have a lot of benefits if done correctly. It’s not like Rogers is going to a dead show eating a 10 strip every week. The NFL gives players Percocets which are highly addictive & overall bad for your health. if players are using them week after week to deal with injuries.  Just my opinion though… to each their own.

    I only saw them once on a larger bill with Metallica headlining, at the old Turner Field. Fred Durst walked by right in front of me on top of the Braves dugout and I remember thinking “One good shove and I could rid the world of a massive douchebag.”

    That’s hilarious.🤣🤣

    So can you tell us how to structure Rodgers and Dak’s monstrous contracts and worse cap hits?

    Not my line of work buddy. for shits and giggles though @Dak (zeke too, you’re fired!)

    Rogers always produces though.. I wish Dallas would try to go after him.. Dak isn't it in Dallas.

    Produces what exactly? He's a regular reason QB who becomes worse when it counts in the playoffs. Dak can't beat SF in the playoffs and neither can Rodgers.

    Rogers keeps GB relevant. GB doesn’t rely on the run game to win games. On top of that they haven’t had a true No. 1, since Cobb? (I could be mistaken) IMO Rogers does produce year after year in GB. As well Rogers won the MVP in 21. You don’t win the MVP  by poking your butt all season😹

    Honestly, Rodgers is old and Allen turns the ball over a lot.
