  1. Unboxed and set up this OnePlus 7 pro and I'm impressed with it so far. It looks and feels VERY similar to my Samsung. I may have found a good midrange option here! I thriew an Alinsea liquid glass cover on it to protect it and it looks sharp.
  2. Got an email that the OnePlus 7 Pro's were in stock today from the manufacturer. I took the plunge and bought one. As well, I ordered a Visible SIM card and I'm going to throw that in it when it arrives and see how the service is. I'm excited to see how the new package works out!!
  3. Will it come out in the USA? I thought I had read no. If it does and it's sub $500, that may be the way to go.
  4. I think I'm going to try and find a oneplus 7 pro and give it a shot. As well, I'm going to move over to Visible to save a few bucks on cell service. I will write back on how it goes.
  5. Thanks for the insight Twice. Any favorites out there right now in that midrange? I have always been the sucker for the newest phone but I'm up for dropping down a level and not wasting that $.
  6. I broke my screen on my Samsung 8plus and I'm trying to decide wether to replace the screen for $250 or bit the bullet and buy a new phone. Anyone have experience with replacing a Samsung screen and were you satisfied? I'm toying with the idea of maybe trying an older Oneplus for $500 or so as well. Thoughts?
  7. Bump. Thinking about trying out Visible to lower our cost a little. Anyone tried it?
  8. I can hear it now, "how about we keep the $ and just apply it to next season?"
  9. That is a really sore subject. We all had a big sit down about 10 years ago to discuss this topic. I planted seeds, watered the seeds, and nothing grew. So we sit her today and they don't have that LTC policy that would really come in handy right now.
  10. Hitting that point in life and we need to start getting educated on possible in home care for the elderly members of our family. Anyone have any do's/dont's/recommendations/experiences that they can share? I'm hoping that we can find someone that will treat our family as we would treat them and we would like to avoid switching care givers every few mos. If we could find that perfect person to stay on the job as long as they are with us, that would be preferred. Location is near Corpus. Need for now is someone to come in 7 days per week, 2 hours in the am and 2 hours in the PM to check in, make sure everyone is taking their meds, arrange meds, make sure everyone is eating, etc.... Anyone have any tips? Precciate ya!
  11. Larry, with your experience I am hoping you can provide some perspective. I have a friend that is looking at enrolling their kids in an online specific homeschool for the next school year vs. staying in her school district online learning. Their thought is that this established homeschool program has decades of experience and has worked out the kinks to help her kids learn well vs. the local district that is just trying to survive and doesn't have any real experience or skill set in online learning. What are your thoughts on this?
  12. I just spoke to a friend that runs one of the largest labs in Central Texas. She said that are pulling their hair out trying to keep up with the COVID testing right now and she said her best advice for me right now was to "STAY at HOME!" . Take this for what it's worth.
  13. If you are going to go to any of those 3 schools, my advice would to be to live near the one you choose to go to. Otherwise, I'm not sure that any of those schools will let your transfer in from an AISD address.
  14. To teach us how to pay refs, teach us how to beat Ok St, teach us how to.... I mean I think this guy would go absolutly bezerk with Texas type talent. No?
  15. I know this is crazy talk, but since that seems to be the soup du jour recently.....would we have any interest in hiring Gundy?
  16. Sounds fun......oops, I mean risky
  17. Any penalties for them paying the refs to fuck us over every year?
  18. So are we supposed to be back to normal yet or what? Asking for a friend.
  19. Amazing! That happens REALLY fast! Thank you for sharing that.
  20. Yeah, one second it seemed like it was a mile up....camera loses signal, and then 5 sec later it's resting peacefully on a drone ship?! WTF?!! That shit seemed fishy as hell. Someone please help me take the tin foil hat off my head here.
  21. Thanks Reagan. You hit the nail on the head like 20 times in this post. Very helpful and chilling to see that the recipe is the same each time over and over.
  22. bump. My MIL is suffering from Alzheimer's and her husband is not much of a help. I feel like I really need to support my wife and her mother the best I can. I'm hoping that some of you Shagsters canhelp shorten the learning curve for me here a bit or point me to a website or an organization that they have vetted. I am starting from square 1 here. Bottom line, she is starting to forget things and is deteriorating at a rapid pace. We worry about her now for all of her daily activities. She started confusing family members names the other day and it was a final straw for me. I asked her husband to get long term care insurance for them years ago but he never acted on my advice. I think we need to get her in home care. From there, I know she may need an assisted living arrangement, and so on...... This ride is really going to suck!
  23. A rack and a steak! Real professionalism here. BRAVO!
  24. Port A looks any other Memorial Day ever. The beach had rows of cars stacked 3 deep! I would estimate that the Stripes was at approx 125% of capacity!
