ABC -KVUE contract dispute
I just installed the ABC app on my Roku. The schedule shows games tonight and tomorrow. It looks like this is an option for me.

Longhorn Network
Disappointed they didn't televise Sark's after game press conference last night. Sometimes they cut it off early. I watched it this AM on Youtube, however. Always liked to watch the post game show.

Getting old sucks
I know a couple of guys from the class of '63 (one recently dec'd), but don't recognize either from that photo. Most St. Ed's guys I know graduated in class of '65.

Turbo Tax can EABOD
I filed when I was in jr. high and high schools but didn't need to taxwise. All my employers back then withheld from my pay, so I had to file to get that witholding refunded.

Sunday Break -- any old Austinites got stories?
A little off topic, but I didn't want to start another. Sometime in the '70s, there were some smaller, progressive country music concerts at Steiner Ranch. Not sure if before or after the Sunday Break concerts, as I don't remember them. Wish I had seen the Band live, though. One of these had Willie, Billy Joe, Alex Harvey (wrote Delta Dawn, played LA swamp rock), and the Wheel. The other had Waylon, Jimmy Buffett, and Rusty Wier. I know Tommy Steiner performed at one of them. Other performers were there, but I can't remember who or recognize in what photos I had. All I have are contact sheets, as I lost any original photos and the original negatives in a flood in 2015. Only stories I have are that some hippies went skinny dipping in Bull Creek, but we stayed away as we had our young kids (under 10 yo) with us. I also missed what could have been the best photo I could have taken. Willie had come out and sat in the audience, apparently chatting up some cutie. One of our party told my 5-6 year old daughter to go give Willie a kiss, which she did. All of us thought it was great, but sitting there with a camera in my lap, I didn't even think to capture the moment. Lotsa beer that day. I do have some old scans, however.

Currently enjoying The Sixth Commandment on Britbox. Limited series based on real events concerning a young "religious" man preying on old folks. How it was done pre internet.

I might consider it. Seems to be a better view than in Austin or Bastrop.

Bo Diddley with a San Francisco '60s twist. Loved this song from when it first came out.

Christianity is the faith that slaveholders used to justify maintaining slavery. He should read his history of the times.

Hey, @justhookit, Was Shell's bought by the same guy who owns the Holiday Inn Express property and the old Rock Cottages and Laughing Horse properties? Or is someone going to put a new restaurant there? Gonna be a lot of units up at Eleventh and G. Did the guy from Shell's retire?- A story about a pathetic man's downfall [34 Felony Convictions]
So, if an Executive Order can modify/reverse a constitutional amendment (fourteenth), why doesn't Biden modify/reverse the 2nd to clearly state a limitation on gun ownership?- How Fox News works
