Port Aransas
We did that for years. Watched most the football games. When my son had his sailboat, we sailed on New Year's day several years. We also liked to drive down to Little Shell Beach at PINS. Weather is usually mild down there during the holidays. Covid messed that up last year.

Dumbass Shit We See On Facebook
Human centipede? We didn't do that. All heads against the wall. Like it would make a difference in a nuclear strike.

No books on our heads. Bended over, hands on heads, against the hall walls. Life in the '50s was fun.

Hey Hookit - Looks like Nicholas might have been a nothingburger in Port A. Was it? Mustang Island Airport listed very little rain over the past three days. Wind looked a little heavier than normal. How was it IRL? Did Old Town or Whispering Sands have flooding?

Non Netflix/Amazon Streaming Recommendations & Other Random Streaming Shit
I like all you mention. My wife didn't like McD & D. She didn't like how the DI treated the DS. I like just about anything with Jason Watkins. He killed as Roger in Hold the Sunset. Also love Brenda Blythen. Interesting to see her early on, as a young attractive mother in Labors of Erica. Not all that good a comedy and a horrid laugh track, but great to see the change as she aged.

Non Netflix/Amazon Streaming Recommendations & Other Random Streaming Shit
We enjoyed Benidorm, Death in Paradise, and Silent Witness. First was a crazy comedy, second was light mystery/cop show, third was more serious mystery show.

What? In a town where hardly anyone wears a mask or socially distances? I wonder what the vaccination rate is for PA (vs all of Nueces Co).

Who had this hanging in his room?
My son had that on his wall. Years later, after he moved out, I used his old room as my computer room and put his old Queen bicycle race poster up.

Corpus Christi Aquarium?
That is cool, and my four grandchildren really enjoyed it. Kind of a pain to get up at dark thirty to drive from PA to PINS to watch it, but really a great experience. How to See a Sea Turtle Hatchling Release - Padre Island National Seashore (U.S. National Park Service) (nps.gov) They all have enjoyed the Aquarium several times, also.

What do you order at Whataburger?
I've been trying out different combinations with the grilled peppers and onions. I added them to the Avocado Bacon Burger, subbed pepper jack cheese, and subbed creamy pepper sauce for mustard. Messy, but tasty. I also tried the BBQ Chicken Strip Sandwich, subbed creamy pepper sauce for the BBQ sauce, added grilled peppers and onions, and subbed out the cheese for pepper jack. I enjoyed. Lastly (so far) I ordered a regular Patty Melt and added the grilled peppers and onions. I liked better than a regular Patty Melt, but not as good as the other two. I am going to look at other combinations. As you may be able to tell, I was a Monterrey Melt fan.

Great info. If anyone heads over to visit London, you can visit Gilwell after about an hour long train ride. They have a trading post there, too.

The best female singer
Second on the little sparrow being a fine singer. She got a lot of pushback here after that crappy commercial with Non, je ne regrette rien.

¡Snek!
Scared this guy up while weed eating this morning. He scampered under the steps of the deck. Racer? Real pretty snek.

Shit HEB Makes (when its open).
I like the fact that a lot of the HEB/HCF brand salad dressings aren't made with HFCS.
