  1. Mostly agree with the worst person you know / JPEG. She should keep saying things like this; really plays to the base. While I agree that Vietnam was a horrible waste and tradgedy my Trump voting mother would be livid if she heard this and finally go through the trouble of not voting straight R to vote D against MTG every time. There are things you just don't say in mixed company let alone on the internet with your name on it. The "they" that ran all those narratives is your fucking party
  2. How the fuck have they only sold 50 k of these fuckers, and are all of them in West Austin?. On any typical 8 mile drive to my project in Bee Cave I will see at least 10 of these fucking things. A lot them are wrapped and several are wrapped with business logos. How fucking niave do you have to be to advertise on one of these and think "this will help my business!" Had a good laugh watching one of my clients neighbors get his into his garage. Multi-point turn to approach garage, then all passengers had to get out because the pos barely fits. Never hauls or tows anything. Nice guy; huge dork.
  3. Choripan if you have any info on groups that need this type of construction help, demo, coordination, management and skilled labor please DM. Both remote and in person; donations or shipping supplies or tools. My shoulder is 12 weeks post op so I am a ways out from being a 100% with my hands. But, prior to this setback i had been planning a month over there, helping however I can when I'm between big projects. My kid is 18 so Im not real concerned about risk. I think in the coming economy i could be more useful with my labor vs my wallet and it's easy enough for me to schedule projects in a way where I can be gone for 30 days. Sorry fellas I personally wouldn't be chasing tail. Ukraine is going to need a lot of help for a long time.
  4. Can you still get cows head for Barbacoa there? This bougie Lakeway Heb is all aged prime everything and Wagyu. I don't always want to feed people luxury food. I want old school cheap cuts i need to marinate and prep properly. Adjacent question where is a good Mexican Market these days? Like La Michocana on congress back in the stone ages.
  5. This. I took so much Ibuprofen in my early 30s. Rode my bike 15 miles, dose up. Framers didn't show up and i had to move 300 sheets of OSB solo, dos advils. Wtf. Now I pretty much only take when it's something major like surgery, and a small dose actually works.
  6. 100% agreed. Somehow Augie could selectively use rage to motivate but mostly it's routine and finding calm and having set progressions that get you through high energy moments. The only anagalous football player to a baseball player would be the kicker.
  7. It's all about the kids having a good time at the state fair. Ride some rides, get some fried butter, maybe a cookie. You can't just go get explosive plays so why bother.
  8. If you were God would save a species that elected an Antichrist to the most powerful office on earth? After all we were given, all the bounty and prosperity we chose to throw away? We deserve our punishment.
  9. Jeff Davis Attorney at Law, is that you?
  10. Everyone 60 min out of Austin says "hi". Fucking Valley says "orale!" South Texas: home to entitled fat chicks.
  11. I have all the drugs I was acquirujg for Ypifs and no one to give them to. (Rip.) Not really. But maybe I have a shit load of fireworks.
  12. Fucking Spicewood Split in super slow mo
  13. Maybe, like my kid, he Really likes mountain biking?
  14. You can go to Pagosa and build your own.
  15. I love Tenkara; but time and place. My buddy was fishing in Co and broke off a big ass Brown. Small waters heck yeah. Had a blast in RMNP (western side) with a Tenkara and some dumb hungry trout.
  16. I have a Lamsom 5wt that I love. I fish cheap 8wt reels for bass no problem, but I'm not stepping into saltwater with a cheap reel. Not even once. I'm also trying to fish a mono rig for trout so an upgraded 5 wt is inevitable but I like having cheap backups ready for friends on the Guad and mountain trips. Regarding rods. A guide I fish with often has a bunch of great set-ups for clients-Winston, Sage etc. Banging banks all day I prefer my cheap ass TFO pro 3. I'm more consistent and accurate hitting 2' strike zones for bass but also working dries with my 5 wt. The extra price point is wasted on me. I fish fast and hard though. What makes the most difference for me is line choice for the style of fishing I'm doing and building my own leaders. Getting away from pre-made leaders has greatly increased my ability to turn over big flies, tuck cast nymphs smoothly, hit tight targets, and fish dries with natural slack and gentle presentation.
  17. Mexico should rename the Gulf of California
  18. That and future concerns of finding someone to service it when Tesla is completely cratered.
  19. Scott Sterling!
  20. That cheap as made in China flag will be pretty thread bare with a few days out in the sun.
