  1. Needs to have a cutout for the mouth.
  2. I can remember my grandfather, who lived through the depression in the Panhandle, telling me as a kid about T. Boone Pickens buying up water rights in that part of the state and how we was prescient about predicting the value of a scarce resource.
  3. Do you want a cookie? 🍪
  4. 6-10pm during summer in Texas. The exact hours I want to be sweating my balls off in my house.
  5. Somehow or another Dallas has done it, kept it green and managed to not have it turn into some sort of dystopian homeless encampment so it can be done. It will only get more expensive to complete a generational project like cap and stitch so count on Austin to not have the foresight to do it now and then realize twenty years from now that having a gigantic freeway canyon ripping right through the middle of the central city isn’t great. Yep, a wasted opportunity.
  6. Cap and stitch would be awesome. Look no further than Klyde Warren Park in Dallas for what an incredible community amenity it would be. Imagine reclaiming the space between DKR, Moody, McCombs and the Disch and having a unified athletics district. It would also be incredible through the middle of downtown to reclaim what is currently dead space and a magnet for crime and homelessness. Anyone questioning cap and stitch seriously needs to go visit Dallas and see what they did with Klyde Warren. Unfortunately for Austin, a significant portion of that project was funded through private donations and Austin just doesn’t have that kind of history of philanthropy in the community. The Dells can only be expected to do so much. The only section I could see attracting private money is the section through campus.
  7. This. If Travis County voters wanted something different, they would have voted for it. Take Harris County as an example. Kim Ogg was an ineffective hack who had destroyed the morale in the DA’s office with politically motivated BS. Harris County voters said enough of this bullshit and primaried her. Travis County voters had an opportunity to make a change and they voted for the guy knowing exactly what his track record was.
  8. But +rep for thread title that got me to click.
  9. It’s always funny to watch the morons come out when COVID gets mentioned. Biggest fucking snowflakes in the country.
  10. What the heck was on her computer that the idea of the authorities being alerted was so bad that she let a stranger remotely access her machine?

    It will suck the most for ISU since their fans will show up and find out that they don’t field a baseball team.

    Damn. I’m not saying Arlington is some Mecca of culture, but Surprise is way the fuck out there on the wrong side of the Phoenix metro. It sucks out there so very bad.
  13. Have you heard about their softball team?
  14. We went to Copenhagen in November 2023 and loved it. It’s a great city to just walk around and take it all in. We stayed at the Hotel Sanders and thought it was great.
  15. lol. Traffic not as bad? A major city with no loop, shitty east-west thoroughfares and limited crossings over a river that cuts through the middle of town. Austin’s infrastructure sucks dong.
  16. You need to hit up Stuffed Belly in your hood. It’s also a solid burger.
  17. Houston has a functioning light rail system with >40k daily riders. Just saying.
  18. Person, woman, man, camera, TV
  19. He had a stroke awhile back.
  20. Dabo is a legit redneck. Brian Kelly on the other hand is from Massachusetts so his Cajun schtick is completely fabricated.
  21. How much fentanyl was on board?
  22. Just drunken 18 yo antics on Bourbon Street. Fortunately judges in LA accept bribes, er donations, to make cases disappear off their docket.
