  1. Most popular kid in school, got drunk in the High School parking lot, then proceeded to take his jacked-up truck and do donuts in the front lawn of the school, taking out several new trees that had been planted. Jumped out of his truck, pulled a pistol, and blew his brains out in front of everyone. Kinda fucked up the rest of the weekend.
  2. That's a good call. Botulism ain't a good time.
  3. It's practically mandatory attire at the Lufkin Walmart. And don't get me started about all the weddings that take place down by the Wrangler Jeans.
  4. Timely.
  5. McDonalds from a Cuisinart? When you start slumming, you REALLY start slumming...! No middle ground, huh?
  6. You are right next door to Acenar, which is usually quite friendly. The food isn't bad, plus a nice view of the River. You are also in walking distance of Domingo and the Otro bar. Check out Domingo online and consider a reservation. When/if you're wandering the Riverwalk, pop in at Boudro's. Their food is great, but...at bare minimum...order a round of Prickly Pear Margs and get the table-side prepared Guacamole. Watch the world walk by. Just sayin. If you want SA old-school, however, you're gonna need to get in the car and go to: Blanco Cafe on 1720 Blanco. Taco House on San Pedro. Teka Molino on San Pedro. You should dig all of those.
  7. Buncha lightweights in here. Checking in at 52 here, and we don't do NOLA or Vegas unless we're staying AT LEAST 4 nights. You guys need to bust out the Geritol.
  8. My wife relates stories of her upbringing. How a family of 5 moved into the clergy apt of their local church for a while. Neighbors bringing grocery bags of food, etc. Her not being able to afford the heat bill when she was in medical school, etc. A few years ago, she wandered into the kitchen, then came back and asked, "Where's the tea bag I left on the counter?" "It cooled off, so I pitched it." "Well...I was gonna reuse it." "Jesus Christ, baby...you are a fucking successful doctor. I think that we will be financially solvent if you grab another tea bag." Gotta give her credit...she doesn't really spend...some things just stay with you, I guess.
  9. We've hit Nonna Osteria the past few times in town. Fun little place, great menu. Fancy but not pretentious.
  10. Still waiting...
  11. I bet she spent a good part of Sunday on the shitter after the day she had...
  12. After dicking around with substandard stainless pans for a few go-rounds, I ended up trying the Sur La Table branded 5-ply, and they have been awesome. For those that may be in need...
  13. Shit. Guess I'm heading to Tulsa this weekend.
  14. Based on your finished product, I’d say you did well. Looks great!
  15. I was looking at the author info. Seems like An Accidental Death is the place to start.
  16. That is a serious feat!
  17. I would return the wife at that point. My turkey…my rules! csb time: Our first holiday together, my wife had the nerve to balk at the 28# I brought home to our apartment. “Why so big? Such a waste.” I successfully brined it in a meat bucket packed with ice in the bathtub, and then roasted it beautifully for the holiday. She never complained about the Turkey Tetrazzini later that weekend, or the Gumbo a few weeks later, or the quarts of stock I put up. She, too, wanted me to return it. She, too, was wrong.
  18. That sounds terrible. You gonna abstain? Or triple-fisting to make up for their end?
  19. I’m not your bro, pal! Dammit…Gil beat me to it by 9 hours. Shit.
  20. Saw this today. Kinda accurate.
  21. You are THE MAN! Thank you for reviving it. It was wonderful last year when I made it, and I plan on making it twice this holiday season. Cheers to you, my Surly brother!
  22. I know you made improvements over the Z Tejas version, and that I made your version last year. Like a dumbass, I didn't write it down, and it's vanished along with Shaggy. Care to grace us once again with your culinary vision?

    London

    Any specific places they regularly hang?
  24. You are welcome to tinker with mine, if you wish. East Texas solidarity, brother! Creole Recipe.doc
