  1. I’ve got some curiosities too but I really don’t think I need to see whatever foul creature is willing to fuck that old lazy-eyed ogre.
  2. Fuck that test. One of my kids, who is graduating from an AISD public high school in 3 days, failed the Math STAAR in 4th grade (long story short… nothing happened) and then a year later he aced the 5th grade STAAR to the tune of testing himself into advanced math for middle school. I’d love to give him all the credit and say that he worked his ass off to get a lot better at math over that year, but he really didn’t. It’s just a fucked ineffective test. We also know a family whose children, also here in AISD Public schools, have never taken a single STAAR test. Their kid will be walking across the same stage as mine on Tuesday. I don’t know what kind of hoops they had to jump through or red tape they had to cut to pull that off, but their two kids have absolutely never taken a single STAAR. They simply keep them home from school those days.
  3. 104.9 is listenable to me every morning and then about half the time in the late afternoons. Hogan and Rod would be the best match up and I hope he takes over in the mornings when Bucky retires. Harge is bad but not nearly as bad as Chad and Zay. Hearing them play promos with Zay blubbering about sexually explicit things makes me want to jump out of my car on Mopac. Just stop dude, there’s a time and place for racy jokes, but sports talk isn't it and you’re not funny enough to pull it off anyway. And then Chad tries to make himself sound like some music guy waxing on about the shittiest music ever. They are terrible. Haven’t heard Jeff in years but I always thought his whole schtick is to take one side of the story and fucking run with it when there is a completely logical other side that he just ignores as it’s presented to him over and over again and steamrolls on even after someone proves him to be misinformed. There. My semi annual radio bitchfest is done.
  4. I keep mine right there next to my sharpie.
  5. Seems like it just opened 12 parsecs ago.
  6. The shark fins are trailer cameras. I think the blindspot alert extends back to your trailer if you have one on. And yeah, all the scoops and shit are pretty douchey but the Pro has had high douche factor for a while.
  7. The new Tacoma was shown yesterday. Highlights include a hybrid engine with 326hp and 465lb-ft torque. Available Old Man Emu suspension on the Trailhunter rig, reservoir shocks on models as low as the Off Road, an electronically disconnectable sway bar, rear lockers, 2400 watt inverter in the bed, air compressor built into the bed walls, console safe, 360° camera views, lane keep assist and all the other modern safety features they’d been lagging on, and a whole host of ARB bumpers and gizmos for the bros. Interior is highly updated, exterior not too different. A bit jagged and anglely for my taste but I’ll take it. Lots of YouTube’s out there with the finer details. Long bed still available on most models, manual transmission still available on a few. Most models available late this year, hybrids available early 2024. No prices or mpg estimates yet. I’ll probably be in on a mid-tier long bed Off Road model. Timing should work out well for when my youngest starts driving and takes my current ride.
  8. I’m sure there’s some sort of validity to that, but I’m a rebel. I live on the edge.
  9. Lots of hotels still only have one or two usb ports near the bed and the pass-thru charging lets you charge an ipad, a phone, and the battery all at once without a multiport charger plug box thingy.
  10. I’ve been running the same 3 port Mophie 2000mAh charger with pass-thru charging for at least 7 or 8 years. I keep waiting for it to die or for a port or the pass-thru function to quit working but it just keeps on keeping on.
  11. I was wondering that too. That wasn’t the Window view I’m used to. I’ve probably hiked to the Window 5 or 6 times and have never taken the overlook trail. Probably should.
  12. I knew AISD was getting fucked with Robin Hood but I didn’t realize we were bussing kids in VW Buses now.
  13. Silver is short on crews. It’s the last airline anybody wants to work for and even the better paying jobs can’t hire enough to meet demand right now.
  14. Well, I for one am shocked that the principal told the parents what they wanted to hear, and then essentially swept it under the rug. Allowing the district to decide whether or not law-enforcement should be involved is just crazy. They should’ve been involved immediately and prior to alerting the principal. Even if they don’t have enough evidence to arrest him, let the cops decide that, not the district.
  15. Is that a lot?
  16. Typical Chad taking 2 minutes just to say nothing.
  17. Military aircraft don’t show up on FlightAware and they have plenty of equipment that looks like an airliner. Could’ve just been some guy who is from that area and wanted to buzz mom and dad’s house on a training flight or something. In an area like that 1000 feet above the ground wouldn’t be illegal. With all the weather it came through Texas yesterday there were tons of airline diversions. Houston got rocked pretty hard and I heard ATC tell some guys they couldn’t send any more aircraft to San Antonio or Austin because both were full of other diversions. On a day like that with people avoiding weather, you get all kinds of weird flight paths out of the ordinary.
  18. What’s going on with 104.9 this morning? Some syndicated DraftKings was playing.
  19. The irony is we aren’t even remotely close to the free-est country in the world. The hillbillies that jerk off to “Freedom!” must have never been to most of the western countries that have more freedom than us outside of one very specific issue.
  20. If an unsecured bike is still there after a week it’s a piece of crap that nobody wanted anyway.
  21. Only if you can buy a 6ft tall couch.
  22. His username in perpetuity.
  23. I know it’s a year old… but what a weird thing to say after a guy’s 5th year in the league.
