  1. I don’t think that’s an unbelievable number for a restaurant at all, even a trailer. Your average Chick-fil-A brings in that much revenue, and a busy Chick-fil-A brings in twice as much. They’re running more people through, but those people aren’t spending 25 bucks a person. Plus the catering, plus the location at the Austin FC stadium, which I never went to because the line was longer than the line to get into the stadium. I used to go to that trailer a lot and try to get there at odd times like 3:00 in the afternoon on a weekday and there would be 10 fucking people in line even then. And another 10 already eating. They had times when the line wasn’t too long, but they almost never had times when there was no line at all. Just ringing up at least $20 per person almost nonstop all day.
  2. Well, those are easy numbers to hit…. If you have fucking pickles!
  3. It’s me. I’m completely exhausted from it.
  4. Turn a close shave into a woohoo. You’re the color of the colored part of the wizard of oz movie.
  5. I ate there yesterday. But not one of the old ones.
  6. I was there a fair amount in the early 80’s. I was a couple neighborhoods over, across Burnet so it was just out of bike range for us. But we went there a bunch.
  7. Following up on the previous post above…. Cody Pools called me today. They are paying for core sample testing on every pool they built with concrete from that specific subcontractor. They built around 200 pools with that company’s concrete and are core testing all of those pools, including mine at $8000 per test. So far they’ve tested 20 pools in that group and all 20 have been found to have ASR. All 20 are being demolished and rebuilt. That particular concrete business has now gone bankrupt and their insurance company has stopped paying for those core samples and pool rebuilds. Cody Pools’ insurance company has now taken over paying for it all, probably while fighting with the concrete company’s insurance. The core sampling is moving slow and they probably won’t get to mine until late this year, unless cracks develop before then. Cody assures me the insurance money is there to rebuild every one of those 200 pools that are likely affected. But I’m worried about policy limits running out before they get to mine. Hopefully they can subrogate some of that from the concrete company’s insurance to decrease the chances of that. Good times ahead. Guess I’ll hold off on building the covered patio next to the pool. Gonna start a list of all the things I’ll do different on the second one.
  8. I got an email from Cody Pools today saying that mine was built with concrete from the subcontractor that built all these ASR affected pools. Mine was built two years ago and I don’t have any evidence of cracking in the shell yet but it’s also covered up and I haven’t been in it since the Fall. I’m going to give it a good visual inspection when the water warms up. Cody didn’t offer up any testing or anything. But reaching out to let me know about it was at least a good gesture. I can’t imagine this will go smoothly though if mine starts cracking.
  9. Not only did you click it, you posted it here for a few thousand other people to click it. Don’t give these wannabe self-proclaimed journalists a voice. The coverage of sports and social media in general would be better off if 3/4 of these dickheads had to go get a real job.
  10. I didn’t say he looked better or worse than Maalik last year. Just presenting a data point that says spring games are not all that indicative of performance in real games. No pressure, no threat of being hit hard or tackled at all, free to take risks since the mistakes come with no consequences, etc… He looked amazing today and I loved every minute of it that I saw. Doesn’t really mean shit though. We are in good hands when his time comes.
  11. Arch looked great today. Of course Maalik Murphy wrecked shop in the same game last year.
  12. You’re getting too much screen time.
  13. I wish y’all would post movie/show names and character descriptions with this shit. Bunch of random faces..
  14. Why is it so expensive to check for this with core samples? And at what point after a build would you consider yourself safe from it if no cracks have developed? Seems like most of the problems have been seen in the first few years.
  15. The only footage I saw was from kind of far away, but it looked like he burned for a while. The first comment I saw… “Break out the marshmallows!” Lol
  16. Over-priced for sure, but not bad tasting. At least TD has some ingredients you might find in Mexico. And Circle C milfs are my jam.
  17. You did it again. Those weren’t his words.
  18. Biden could say that his uncle was the Star Fleet Commander in the Space Force during World War II and wrote the song, She Drives Me Crazy while getting a blowjob from Emily Blunt when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor and it would still be better than calling the fallen veterans suckers and losers.
  19. I watched. He never said his uncle got eaten by cannibals.
  20. Quoting what someone ALMOST said… that’s an interesting take.
  21. Torchys is garbage. Their queso is good but so is the queso at plenty of other places. Everything else on the menu is just cheap dogshit ingredients on cardboard tortillas I’ve only had Velvet Taco a couple times and it isn’t great. It’ll do in a pinch, like when every other restaurant in Hobby Airport is under renovation or between ownership. I guess their gimmick is to put non-taco foods into taco form. Meh. The Indian food one is ok. The brisket one isn’t.
  22. The water can get a little muddy on that since Fed Ex carrys the majority of the US Mail in the air, soon to be UPS though as they were awarded the most recent contract.
