  1. I don’t know where else to post this, but I want to echo what a fucking shit show this vaccine distribution is.  The dshs site list all the locations(but of course no phone numbers).  You call them and they say they don’t have it, don’t know when they are getting it, etc.

     

    How is it that one of these major systems(hell HEB pharmacy when it’s open) can’t do what Tarrytown pharmacy did and put together a simple Google doc to put your info for them to contact you?

     

    We are going to needlessly kill more people because we have incompetent fucks running this country.  

  2. I’m a Duncanville guy.  Played there in the early 90’s.  Always talented, but we had a mediocre head coach - Doug Mccutchen.  He of the famed coin flip when he coached in Midland I believe.

    Anyways, hoping Desoto beats Spring on Saturday, as Duncanville and Desoto had their regular season game cancelled.  From what I hear, Westfield came out ready to fight today and it backfired on them badly.  Multiple personal fouls, etc...

  3. Where are you guys finding ammo right now?  Since the summer, it’s been impossible to get my hands on decently priced non-shit ammo.  Federal website has been the only one, and they are down to 2 box limit at $22.99/box + shipping.  Looking for 9mm

    I’m hoping to hear Academy is getting their supply chain figured out, but I think I’m being wishful.

    Hits close to home.  There is actually a Four Seasons Landscaping that services a condo building down the block from me, right on my normal dog walking route.  They make me think about Trump a lot. The workers are dark skinned, Spanish speaking dudes who bust their ass cleaning this place up and probably get paid dirt.  Oh, and they're the nicest, politest guys, always quick to shut off their leaf blower if my dog and I happen to walk by when it's running.  Always quick with an hola or buenos dias or bonito perro.  Not quite the immigrants Trump described.

    Did anyone else read this in “Visiting fan to aggy” prose that texags spews after home games??

    He’s probably up there on his annual baby seal clubbing retreat he does with his buds.  

    So I may have missed people discussing this but is anybody else getting blown up on Facebook about the CDC saying only a few thousand people have died from COVID and most of the people have other conditions that they died from.  I looked at the article real quick and it showed stuff like pneumonia but these right wing idiots are now saying that pneumonia doesn’t count as a COVID death even though the person got Covid WHICH LED to pneumonia.  I guess they are reading the data incorrectly or being fed the wrong conclusions and this is the idiot argument of the day?

    Yup.  Literally had one of my good friends post this on Instagram(I deleted FB in June).  I’m made the costly error of trying to point out the why(what goes on the official death certificate).  They blocked me from seeing their stuff and i didnt even remark publicly.  
     

    it’s slam my head against the wall shit.  I don’t fucking get how we have this many idiots in our country. 
     

    Someone in another thread posted about a car wreck and someone dying of blunt force trauma.  The cause of death is going to be blunt force trauma and not car wreck, but the car wreck led to it.  It’s maddening.

  6. So i binged watched this and found it incredibly well done.  A comment and a question:

    - I’m guessing the reason the shitty detective still has his job is because of a police union, which also makes me think that’s the reason the bad apples bounce from place to place.

    ques - I’m generally curious why the Brydon dude took such a big interest.  Was he footing legal bills and whatnot?  Just didn’t really understand what his motive is/was if any(other than Kelley getting exonerated)

  7. Thanks for all of the replies - Trotters office hasn't called me back and I had a buddy help me get into his guy(Freidman at Urology Austin in RR).  Good dude and they were well organized.  Doesn't look like anything major or worrisome.  So crisis averted.

    I wonder which regular poster made a new account because he was too embarrassed.  

    Derka?

    Shit, I’m def not Derka, I’d have written an essay on here.  I don’t post often here but I read damn near everything.  I’m not embarrassed to have one nut, I just tell the ladies it’s more aerodynamic.  
     

    now if I lose my other one then holy hell.  That just can’t happen. Fml

     

    thanks everyone for the recs.  I do mean it   It’s a weird thing to be able to come to a board that I frequent daily and ask for help, but I knew this would be the place.

    Here is what my sources said in no particular order:

    Brian Mazzarella - Dell

    Dr Shaw with Austin urology

    Michael trotter with mid-town urology. 

    Thanks for the names.  I’ll be reaching out to them.  As always, the surly is good people and also assholes who make me laugh. 

  10. Searched and didn't find anything specific.  I'm a Dallas transplant that has been in Austin for last 4 years but haven't had the need for a Urologist.  Long story short, I've had testicular cancer 10 years ago.  I've got a new issue that's popped up and need to get into one soon.  Don't think it's anything cancer related, but when you're already down a soldier, everything stresses you out more.

    Who here on Surly has a Urologist they like and trust?  I'm in North Austin/RR area, but I'm willing to drive to see a reputable one.

    Thanks in advance!

  11. Only 1 Texas Fight done and that was before the game.  Numerous chances to do it in 3rd and 4th quarters, especially with all of the long TV timeouts.

    Also - Can we changeup the sing along song from Journey?  That’s two weeks in a row and it loses its fun and impact too!  Last bitch - the stupid fucking Kendra Scott thing.  It’s god awful

    Overall a fun atmosphere, but not on par with ND game.  The first half play dictated some of that.

  12. Buddy got tickets next to his seats for this same amount so just trying to make this an even trade off.  

    These are my season tickets.  I love the seats - they are actual chairbacks.  I am in Pflugerville, but can meet and hand off hard tickets or do electronic.  Must be sold to a Longhorn fan.

    $600 firm for the pair

    Edit to the PSVUE post above. 

    Apparently you can’t record select live events on local broadcast TV. It says it will record but after the broadcast the program is no longer available. Horseshit. 

    I was reading on the ps vue faqs and it looks like this applies to ABC and NBC locally(assuming you’re in Austin)

  14. So I'm at the point of cutting the cord on U-verse(no NBC or NFL + stupidly high cost) but I will keep them as my internet provider(only other option is Suddenlink).  If I keep them as my provider, does that give me access to LHN via ESPN Watch or do I have to have a tv package through U-verse?

    I'm going between Vue and YTTV and this might make the choice for me.
