  1. Jim Schusler had a good run with the Hideaway, Blues Bar, and Oyster Bar. The Hideaway and Blues Bar were always part of the annual White Trash Pub Crawl that began at the Hi Hat in the mid 80's.

    Beef Prices

    Had the grilled steak sandwich last week for lunch. Am going to be going back for other choices as this one was top shelf.
  3. Good times back in the day when Johnny Day Whitten was running Caro's. One stop shopping while getting your drink on at the Oui and having him bring you an order of puffy tacos to eat at the bar.
  4. Back in the 90's I heard Joe Ely sing this at Caravan of Dreams multiple times-always greatness. Jason does a good turn here as well.
  5. Endorsed by moi and cardiac doctors throughout the state!
  6. Congratulations on your two years. Stay with it-the miracles yet to come are well worth it, to say nothing of the feeling of peace and serenity you will experience as each day without alcohol passes.
  7. Their Northside location has been a go to for 21 years now. The owner and I lived on the same street in Berkeley and played poker every Tuesday. His brother in law used to manage the Willow Park location until he had a stroke.
  8. 22 years yesterday, 21 years at the same job on Sunday. Coincidence, we think not.
  9. Ray C., Jerry T. and Sam were all role models.
  10. Does he go the The Gift in Irving? Several members there were influential in my staying sober early on and I have always been grateful.
  11. Just finished telling my story online for the first time. There were 68 people who joined and I was grateful to tell what God has continued to do for me that I could not do for myself. The app on my phone tells me I have not had a drink in 7999 days-think I'll keep coming back, it works!
  12. Went in there yesterday, the dude behind the butcher counter said a few people have inquired about buying it but they need to completely redo the butcher/deli/kitchen which won't be cheap. My mother in law lived around the corner from this grocery in the 80's and they would deliver to her home. Always appreciated the wonderful customer service provided by this FW classic.
  13. Thanks for this link. My 7am home group has been doing online meetings since Monday. Our connection to each other and the solution continues to be a bright spot in my life. When I consider how many lives have been lost or destroyed by alcohol, this current virus pales in comparison. God bless each of you as this too shall pass.
  14. What a waste.https://collegefootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2020/02/27/tcu-football-trevone-boykin-sentenced-to-three-years-in-prison/
  15. Did an ATV tour at Red Rocks NP and highly recommend spending the day there. Drove from Grand Junction to Zion last summer and would spend a couple of days there next time.
  16. PSA-Andy's frozen custard opened on Wednesday in SW Ft. Worth, 5328 McPherson. Triple chocolate concrete futures are a buy I predict. Still will frequent Curly's on Camp Bowie, but will be on a first name basis with the employees at this location in my backyard.
  17. Well, all things considered with the "c"word being used quite extensively, we were both entertained and laughed heartily at this movie. Saw a few leave early but I suspect it might have been their first time to see a Guy Richie movie and not appreciate the story without being offended by the cockney dialogue. I was most impressed with Hugh Grant's performance not having seen him in anything in several years. All in all, Guy Richie is still one of my favorite directors and this effort was worth the price of admission. Like Snatch, I will likely watch it regularly when it hits cable.
  18. Got that feeling early on as well.
  19. Well, that should make the wife happy.
  20. Guess that coupon will expire before they reopen, huh?
  21. Vive la résistance! and fvck Tim Love and his Food Network prices.
  22. Having lived in a small town for a year (Nocona) I can honestly say that moving there permanently would be equal to going to Greenwood Cemetery and requesting an eternal reservation.
  23. I'm with Troy Aikman-the old grey wolf will be missed. Having listened to Dallas rock stations KZEW and KTXQ, the names Rhyner and Redbeard were synonymous with greatness. When KTCK became a reality, no one could have ever guessed that 25 years later, it would rule the ratings in DFW drive or have a nationwide following thanks to streaming. There will never be another Mike Rhyner and I will miss his input with the Hardline during afternoon drive.
  24. Saw it opening night at the Granada in Dallas. It was during a massive thunderstorm which added to the sense of evil being depicted on the screen. I saw a lady run screaming out of the theatre when Ragan's head turned around while in bed only to return fifteen minutes later wearing a different outfit. One of the few times I can remember actually having a nightmare after seeing a movie-this one had me up several nights in a row.
