  1. I’m with you Swayze. The chase stories are bullshit. Now, I have had the experience of a wade fishing at the coast and while slowly working a top water, catch movement in my periphery.  Healthy rattlesnake bee lining in my direction. I’m like what the fuck? Gators, sting rays sharks, ok, but now I gotta add fucking rattlesnakes to that list? He went for my dough net and climbed on. Seems he was just tired and needed a rest.  I started to nudge him with my rod tip and he slowly slithered off and swam towards shore.
     

    Maybe somebody would embellish such an experience and eventually someone ends up telling stories about a guy they know got chased by a rattlesnake while wade fishing.

    That’s just crazy. Glad he is finally telling his story.  It’s clear both Penn State and Michigan enabled and created a culture of rape and abuse.
     

    As far as I’m concerned, Bo Schembechler and Joe Paterno are two peas in a pod. Both are absolutely disgusting human beings.  It’s a damn shame they aren’t still living and could be held accountable for their atrocities.

  3. Actually it’s the neighborhood / list creek limited district that charges, not the city of austin. The hill of life greenbelt access in the nearby Woods of Westlake neighborhood is a bunch of bullshit. Hundreds upon hundreds of cars and greenbelters flood that neighborhood. It’s absolutely crazy over the weekends. Like a fucking festival going on. City of austin put that trail head in years ago and was supposed to temporary. From what I have heard, long game plan was to open major trailhead with parking at the property across from Barton creek mall but obviously, that’s never happened. So now the homeless get that tract all to themselves and the neighborhood has to deal with all the greenbelt traffic. It’s beyond ridiculous.  And it’s easy for someone unfamiliar with the situation to just say, oh those rich people in multi million dollar homes complaining etc, too bad.  But like I said, it’s beyond ridiculous.

    Thread derail. Back to sneks.

    Watch out! When they have that solid black color pattern, they just seem so much more menacing  /no rascist. 
     

    A long time ago, one my high school summer jobs was land surveying. Lot of ranch lands, creeks, drainage areas, etc.  Can confirm definitely water moccasins in Travis county and surrounding areas.

    That idiot Brian Davis was on Bucky and Erin this morning. I was only half-listening to part of it, but he predicted 8-4, mentioned uncertainty about RB depth as a concern, and predicted Casey will start at QB. "If he was good enough to back up Sam for two years, then he's good enough to start". 

    That sentence also makes no sense.

    have a couple of em in my wife's family.

    They easy.

    Best recent one was a reunion pic in which we had like 75-80 people. They had been talkin shit all day... in the photo there's about a dozen of us giving the guns up.  Has to go in the family album.  Fuck you, Gomers.

    Well, that actually sounds, uh, pretty aggy.

    A friend was joking that we aren't far off from ERCOT coming out and saying that rolling blackouts/brownouts are going to become the norm as more and more people move in, and construction of new homes/buildings/etc. keeps booming.

    Is that you, friend? Had this exact conversation with my brother yesterday. 

  8. Sorry to hear y’all have this issue. My mom has been suffering from the ringing in one ear. She is basically deaf in that ear.  Constant ringing. Also suffering from moderate to severe vertigo spells. It really is an issue, quality of life deal and it sucks because nothing seems to work. She has recently gone through a regiment of shots in her inner ear but unfortunately they have not been the magic bullet we were all hoping for.  
     

    As far as a doctor referral, she has seen several specialist, including a neurologist. She is currently seeing Dr. Patrick Slater. Of all the specialist she has seen, she is most impressed and happy with her care and treatment from Dr . Slater’s outfit.  
     

    Good luck fellas. I can see how much this condition effects my mom. It sucks. I hope y’all can get some treatment that helps alleviate the ringing and related issues.

    I'd rather have that snake than the rats he is eating.  Once the food source is depleted, he'll move on.  

    Spraying snakes with a water hose usually moves them along, but it this case it might just move him farther under the hot tub.

    Exactly. Rat snakes seem to always be on the prowl, looking for food. He’s probably depleting the rat nest buffet as I type.  He might laze around with a full belly digesting but I bet you don’t see him again.  He looks like a healthy specimen.

    Texas fans overrate Patterson and TCU so much because he was able to beat our last two shitty coaches. TCU has had 7 wins or less 4 of the last 5 years and they’re 12-15 in the Big 12 over the last three years. They have not been good and Patterson isn’t showing signs of fixing it. On top of that, their recruting has been falling off and Patterson’s getting desperate and taking guys with huge red flags. 
     

     

    Oh sure, I agree. But there’s no denying Patterson and his poor recruiting have straight up owned Texas lately.  Appropriate this discussion is happening in the aggy thread because it sure seems like something they would spout off.

    Lol what are you talking about bout? They’re already fading into irrelevancy with Patterson still at the helm. Their recruiting has been horrible. They will have to get Patterson out for their before he tanks their program and absolutely nail the next coaching hire, otherwise they’re in for a very gloom future. 

    Perhaps. But that’s a bold statement considering Patterson has used Texas as his sweat rag lately, going 6-1 over last 7 matchups. But sure, go ahead, shit all over Patterson, he’s fading into irrelevancy.

    Life long michigan fan here. I grew up being taken to games and tailgating. My uncle raised me on old ten year war videos. Bo was a god to him and I. With that being said I collect memorabilia and as far as my michigan stuff is concerned I had a michigan mini helmet signed by bo before he died. It’s like the holy grail michigan auto. After news of this broke a few weeks ago (have been waiting to see if it would get more national coverage) I immediately sold the helmet. I got $300 for it which was $100 less then what others were asking. I feel sick about the fact I was going to use that money for something like a guitar or what ever so I’m going to donate it to a fund for sexually abused people. This story has completely shaken me and is on the verge of breaking me from being a michigan fan. I didn’t go there but love the campus and all the surrounding areas. How could a man that claims to have stood for so much integrity do this? Burn it down burn it all fucking down! Statues buildings all of it. Not rename BURN IT DOWN! Also all that failed to report this and knew need to be locked up forever. If they are not I’m done. I’m not sure that there is a right way this can be handled to make me return to the fandom I once had for this university it’s administration or anyone involved. Sorry if this didn’t make sense but I’m just fucking sick right now and this university has been such a big part of my life I don’t even know what to say

    I wonder how much that helmet would have been worth had you gotten him to sign it after he died?

    Looks like a yellow belly nerodia (water snek). Can be bitey, but they’re harmless.

    Yeah, looks like a plain-bellied water snake.
