  1. My goddam fucking back surgery got moved up a week. gotta miss Jack White May 25 and Old Crow Medicine Show May 31 in Austin. Take my tickets, please. Details in For Sale. I did score a ticket to JW in Iriving a couple of days before at least. Been waiting to see him a long time.
  2. Due to unforeseen circumstances I can't attend these concerts. Jack White Sec 113 Row A Seats 15 & 16, Old Crow Medicine Show Mezz 4 Row B Seats 319 & 320. Not interested in making a profit but I would like to recoup what I paid. PM me.
  3. Am I the only one who notices the striking similarity between the language of the propaganda being used currently by the Russkies and the language of the propaganda being used by the supporters of "everyone's favorite president" starting in, say, 2015ish? Surely I'm not.
  4. FML
  5. Whoops wrong 27th for Yola. I'm in the clear beeyotches. Gonna break the bank for this one.
  6. Foo is playing Moody on April 27. I already have tickets to go see Yolo that night. Anyone want to buy some Yolo tickets?
  7. Oh you. Believe me you don't wanna. Surl at its finest tho.
  8. I lived in Austin at the time (still do), knew the stepmother of of the girls. I have never seen a person in such pain. Haunts me to this day. She's not married to the girl's father anymore.
  9. Ted Cruz didn't find it "offensive and insulting" when only white men were considered for appointments. Apparently skin color only matters when it's the wrong color. Fuck him sideways.
  10. First floor, slab. The slab is about 13 years old, poured during a remodel. We had to have the old foundation leveled 6 years ago, don't know if that matters at all.
  11. Nah man, I have nice polite lady shit. Speak to my husband.

    RIP Meat Loaf

    I would do anything for love. But I won't get vaxxed.
  13. OK so I'm hearing a lot of chatter hear about a clogged vent. But all the vents were pouring smoke during the smoke test so seems like it's not the vent. I mean, this handyman has always done good work so I'd be surprised if he fucked up when he redid the seal but I guess it's possible. I just hate to pay to re-replace the seal and then still have the odor. At some point it was decided that they'd run a camera down there to see if they can find a crack or something, guess I should follow up on this. I'm trying to stay in the loop remotely while I'm moving my elderly parents into a new apartment in Houston. Shit never ends. Thanks for y'all's help.
  14. That's pretty much what Plumber the Second said, but it was pay him $500 to redo the wax seal or $1,200 to do the smoke test. Maybe we made the wrong choice. Would the smoke test have shown a leak around the wax seal if there had been one?
  15. Unless there is something up with the toilet where it won't seal to the wax ring, I suspect it has nothing to do with the issue. Where you at so someone can recommend a plumber who knows what he (/she lol) is doing? Austin, Texas baybee. Yeah I'd like a rec for a plumber who knows his ass from a hole in the ground.
  16. OK, a few weeks ago we started smelling sewage in our master bedroom WC. The toilet is just in a little cubby with a door that closes so we know that's where it's coming from. Had the handyman replace the wax seal, fucked around with Roto Rooter who couldn't get their shit together to have the right person come out, then had Reliant Plumbing do a smoke test. Nada. It still smells. IT STILL SMELLS! So, husband is thinking about replacing the whole fucking toilet but I don't want to be throwing good money after bad so I thought I'd come to the repository of all knowledge. Go.
  17. On tap for 2022: Buddy Guy, Haim, Earth Wind Fire/Santana if Carlos doesn't croak first, Boz Skaggs, Jack White, Eagles, Yola. In the last few months I've seen Keb Mo, The Circle, Lindsay Buckingham, Buddy Guy (his guitar player is a friend of mine so I'm permanently guest listed) and The Stones. Just got my $62.50 back from the COTA parking debacle, sometimes going moderate Karen has its perks. Had tickets for Jason Isbell but was sick and didn't make it to the concert, which pisses me off, may take a road trip and see him next year unless he comes back to Austin (ohpleaseohpleaseohplease). Was out of town when Billy Strings rolled through, he's on the short list too as is Brandi Carlile. May have to somehow make Foo happen as well. Happy New Year one and all.
  18. My cousin, age 70 and obese, got his booster about a month ago. Felt like shit the next day, attributed it to the shot, felt shittier and tested positive. He's been in the hospital for the last few weeks with double pneumonia and a collapsed lung. He's on oxygen with a chest tube in and they keep draining fluid. His mother, my aunt, died early this year (non-Covid related) at age 92. Didn't get to go to the funeral of course. His dad, my uncle, age 96 is absolutely frantic about his son. My cousin has been super-careful but the timing of this shit didn't work out for him. If he dies because of the abject stupidity of the anti-vaxxers I'm gonna cut a bitch (yeah yeah I know, he shouldn't be old and fat, fuck off).
  19. Well I'll be goddammed...

  20. For anyone keeping score there was another rash of leaflets disseminated by the neo-Nazis last week in Northwest Austin. So yeah, not unnoticed by everyone.
  21. Sold. Now I'm gonna go buy a Hershey's Bar with my proceeds. If I can find some spare change in my couch cushions I might be able to afford two of them.
  22. Agree on Midnight Rambler, holy shit, and loved the Robert Johnson insert during the middle. Honestly they are at their best playing the blues. Can't believe anyone thought it was low energy. That's where I think you lose a bit being so far from the stage and having to rely on monitor boards that, especially if you are off to the side, are showing you only 1/4 of what's going on.
  23. Fuck that, I want the sixty gotdamn dollars I paid for the parking pass that bought me the privilege of sitting in a three hour traffic jam and that was completely disregarded and therefore useless when I got to actually, you know, park my fucking car. On edit - forgot to mention that we didn't even get to park in a parking lot. Just in a giant fucking featureless field full of potholes and such.
