  1. I went up to Duncanville for the game last night. Ja’Quinden Jackson was fun to watch in person. That kid knows how to win. Can’t wait to have him on campus.
  2. I saw Nitzer Ebb open up for Depeche Mode at the Woodlands on the Violator tour in the summer of 1990. I was 14 and about to be a freshman in high school.
  3. In true aggy fashion, the drop will be spectacular.
  4. Like Texifornia said, they’re still really good. But they don’t quite dominate in basketball like they used to. Gonzaga has won the Washington Catholic Athletic Conference three out of the past five years.
  5. Here’s a preview of the Duncanville vs. St. John’s game happening tomorrow. I’m driving up for the game. If any of you assholes are gonna be there, shoot me a PM.
  6. Duncanville is playing nationally ranked St. John’s (Washington, DC) this Saturday in Duncanville. I’m considering driving up for this game.
  7. Chris Parson might be one to watch. Freshman QB at Duncanville. JQJ’s backup. He got to play a little bit in the second half last night against South Oak Cliff and threw this TD.
  8. He’s lived in Austin for a while. Big UT fan. Came out and talked to the team in 2017. https://www.hookem.com/2017/03/24/wwe-star-undertaker-visits-longhorns-practice-shares-life-story/
  9. Dat baw sounds like an assheaux.
  10. We were supposed to fly to Orlando this morning and back on Tuesday for Disney World and the opening of Star Wars Galaxy’s Edge at Hollywood Studios. We had to cancel. Orlando airport is scheduled to shut down on Monday at 2am.
  11. I’ll be watching this thread closely over the next 24 hours. Supposed to fly to Orlando Friday morning to take the kids to Disney World Saturday, Sunday and Monday.
  12. If I’m not mistaken, the gold Jazz Bass is the 60s version with dot markers. The silver is the 70s version with block markers. Go for the gold.
  13. I spent months considering this same question before I lucked out and found a period-correct Oxford for my 64 DR. I almost bought the George Alessandro/Eminence GA-SC64, and I still might pick one up down the road. It gets rave reviews, specifically when used in the Deluxe Reverb. https://www.eminence.com/pdf/GA_SC64.pdf
  14. Here’s the original tweet and video from a few weeks ago.
  15. Someone who gets a lot of Twitter traffic, like Longhorn Frenzy, needs to tweet this. Maybe tag Carrington in the tweet. It’ll get around.
  16. I believe that is a Bruno Royal Artist, and like DougO said, it was a Japanese import. Do you know what year that photo was taken? From what I can tell, the model SRV is playing came out in 1970. It looks like the earlier models from around 1967 had the input jack on the front of the guitar.
  17. JQJ seems to be ok with it...
  18. jlitt started following CTJr recently.
  19. Yup, it was Insomnia, later Metro. I lived at the Woo my first year at UT (94-95) and spent many late nights there. There was an Eckerd Drugs next door back then. The kid who played Hirschfelder in Dazed and Confused worked there for a while.
  20. Kizer’s concoction was a double shot of Starbucks espresso poured into a 24 oz Steel Reserve High Gravity Malt Liquor in a Styrofoam cup full of ice. Called it ‘beer coffee’.
  21. Haven’t seen this posted on Surly, but this is getting some views on Twitter today.
  22. Dershowitz is feeling the heat. Here is an op-ed he wrote trying to discredit The New Yorker which is about to publish an article on him and underage girls. Dershowitz claims that the upcoming hit-piece is a leftist attempt to silence him because of his defense of Trump, Netanyahu and the state of Israel. https://www.newsmax.com/t/newsmax/article/924825
  23. The 2003 Vanity Fair profile on Epstein was in a Twitter post a couple pages back, but I’m linking here in case anyone missed it. It goes into a bit of detail on Epstein’s financial dealings in the 80s and 90s including his business deals with Hoffenberg. https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2003/03/jeffrey-epstein-200303 The article mentions his penchant for young women which was known at the time, but the reporter has since come out and said that a part of the article that mentioned the allegations with underage girls was cut by her editor.
