  1. I have a Primo (BGE equivalent) and it is my go to for low and slow cooking/smoking. For Easter, smoked a store bought spiral sliced ham and there is not a single person in family that wants to have holiday ham any other way.
  2. Was just in Destin over Spring Break....that is actually a nice time to go (though unseasonably cold this year.....lows in the 40s). Prefer staying east of Destin proper (really like Sandestin) and going in to Destin for fishing charters, boat cruises, etc. Pensacola Beach is somewhat underrated. It is a small step down in sand and water quality, but not much. The Blue Angels practice is cool to see (Fun Fact-my wife's uncle was in the Blue Angels) Haven't been to Gulf Shores......folks tell me that was what Destin was 30 years ago
  3. 8th Wonder is about 3/4 of a mile from Minute Maid...brisk 15 min walk. It is 3 or so blocks down from the soccer stadium which is only a few blocks south and east of Minute Maid. Your hotel might be closer to 8th Wonder, depending on where you are staying.
  4. I'll see your NFL jackets and raise you this: Loved the NFL Sheets as a kid.....of course I had a roommate after college that was sporting a more modern version of this on his bed....we were out drinking one night and he was lamenting his lack of action in said sheets.....to which another friends girl goes....."no self respecting woman is getting it on with someone in a bed with NFL sheets".....said sheets disappeared shortly thereafter.
  5. A few that I have been enjoying recently
  6. 8th Wonder Brewery isn't too far from Minute Maid. That is a good spot for some pre-game brews https://8thwonder.com/brews.
  7. Not a huge fan of the "Yacht Rock" genre, but I do have Christopher Cross' "Sailing" on my play list......reminds me of sailing on Lake Travis in my younger days. In college, we used to have watching parties for the back to back Wed night Fox drama powerhouses of Beverly Hills 90210 and Melrose Place. Had a big thing for Tiffani Thiessen during that time
  8. I am going to enjoy contributing to this thread as I absolutely detest the "NextDoor Ninnies" in my neighborhood. Too lazy to dig back on all the past shenanigans, many flavors of which have already been mentioned in this thread, but I am sure there will be many more entries in these categories. Hoping the entitled millennial wife brigade living in the "gated" section of non-custom homes, the HOA conspiracy theorists, or the "OMG we live in such a crime infested neighborhood because my car was broken into even though I left my car outside with the doors unlocked" people start acting up again so I can reveal their shenanigans in all their glory.
  9. Speaking of accounting programs......is this the part of the discussion where we remind everyone that the lead Arthur Andersen partner on the Enron debacle was a proud graduate of....you guessed it.....Texas A&M.
  10. A movie character in a similar profession, though I can't claim to have the certain set of skills that the character in the avatar possesses.
  11. YES! One of my favorite Christmas presents ever....played the crap out of this game when it came out. Too bad it would cost me 300+ to buy on the market today.
