  1. I've used Air Worth (817) 685-0042, for a number of years. If you go with them, ask for Tony to come to your house as he's a reliable, trustworthy and very competent tech.
  2. King's X (connected to Lucy's) on N. Mesa for day drinking. Classic dive bar that's been there at least as long as when I was in school, 79-83.
  3. Sad to hear that Brix is closing. Last day will be August 17.
  4. In the past 10 years of visiting The City, I've never felt unsafe walking the streets or taking BART/Muni, but Market Street is definitely more sketch than before so we're on higher alert walking up Powell to our hotel at night. The really sad part and most noticeable to me, are the number of closed businesses, and the ghost town that is the Westfield Mall. However, during my last trip in December, I was pleased to see that Union Square was packed with people during the evening, giving me hope that The City is on the rebound. By the way, love that new T Line from Chinatown to the Chase Center!
  5. My ex worked for Bob at Lone Star @ 30 years ago, and I've never heard anything bad about him. I didn't know if you had some specific run in with him other than his sorry ass son being a murderer.
  6. I know John Birdwell is a POS, but what's the deal with his dad?
  7. Rent bikes in Santa Monica and ride the trail to Venice Beach and back. Upon return, eat lunch outside by the pier at Big Dean's Ocean Front Cafe. Great SoCal beach vibe. Have fun on your trip.
  8. $21 for a burger and fries. I'll let a few more people try it before I decide to take the plunge. I does look good though.
  9. Both can be true.
  10. Arvada would be a good location to retire. My Texas Ex son and his wife have lived there for the past 2 years and love it. It's less expensive than Golden or Boulder, and basically halfway between Golden and downtown Denver. There are lots of parks and trails, and Olde Town Arvada is a really cool place for drinks and dinner. It has a couple of light-rail (RTD) stations with a short ride to downtown, and it's just north of I-70 making it an easy drive to the mountains for the weekend.
  11. I agree. No issues with DIA at all, and quite frankly, Pre Check is quicker there than at most airports. Not to mention the very convenient RTD train to downtown and beyond.
  12. As of last Tuesday, that's been fixed. At least at the River Oaks location.
  13. Rent a couple of beach cruisers (one with a child seat) and ride up and down the Ocean Front Walk between Pac Beach and Mission Beach, but go in the morning before the crowds. Great beach vibe and views along the route. The Mission Beach section is quieter, and the basketball court at the south end of Mission Beach is one of the places where Bill Walton played growing up. The Spot in La Jolla would be a child friendly restaurant, along with Baked Bear in PB for ice cream/cookies, while Old Town is a cool area with decent Mexican food. Oh, and the Birch Aquarium in La Jolla would be a nice place for a quick family activity while up in that area. Have a great vacation!
  14. I know tots are tots, but theirs seem to better than than others.
