    Subpar Parks

    Fort Zach in Key West, Dry Tortugas, and Bahia-Honda State Park - end of Seven Mile bridge heading east are worth the time. I hiked all levels of Fort Jefferson when I was there. Maybe heard a whisper or two when no one was near by. Did the Everglades on the same trip as Dry Tortugas. Wasn't a big excursion but we did the guided tour at Shark Valley. The guys doing the tour did a fantastic job explaining how that area was built for touring, the history of the Seminoles,etc... They also discussed the threat of the Burmese Python in the Everglades. Made me want to do some wrangling. But Alligators and native venomous snakes make that a no go.
  2. Hehehe... I am missing about a 1/4 inch of the tip of my right index finger. The doctors who did surgery on my hand left the finger nail matrix in tact. Basically, I have finger nail growing over the top of my finger. It always brings a little smile to my face when I meet someone for the first time or hell after years of acquaintance. Maybe after a handshake or a hand gesture on my part... and they pick up on something that is just a little off about my hand.
  3. Getting an A&W at an A&W with the glass mug when I was a kid was nirvana for me. Liked Frosty's growing up. IBC is what I am likely to buy these days. I might have to give Maine Root Beer shot though. BJ's has a dang good root beer offering IMO. It has a nice little cream soda after taste. They offer a Cream soda as well.
  4. Or PS Vue? I think this was the best service out there until Sony shut it down. I recall it checked all the necessary boxes for me especially for LHN and FSSW.
  5. Necro quote... I grew up and learned how to drive in Waco. I can't remember the circumstances or the occasion I had that allowed me to ask police officers about the right of way in the Circle. This was well before they threw up Yield signs all over... All I remember is that 1 officer said people IN the circle had the ROW and another officer said the people COMING IN TO the circle had the ROW. It was always an adventure driving through there.
  6. In general, how long to you have to protest the new value? Bought a house over a year ago... gone up 15K since purchase. Not a shocker given the area and neighborhood but... if I can possible get it down a few thousand, why not.
  7. It's blinker... then brake. Blinker... then Brake... JESUS MAN... BLINKERS THEN BRAKE!!!!!!&*(*()!))_&%$## 3 times the other day, 3 different people, each coming to a near stop and then hitting their blinker or not in one instance.
  8. First car... 69 Buick Wildcat ...Grandma gave it to me. Gas hog. 430 with a 4 barrel. First car I bought... 77 Plymouth Trailduster It was white with white wheels. Rear lift window would squeak like a mofo.
  9. It's ok. I have to watch it dubbed (I can't break myself from read subtitles). The writing leaves a bit to be desired at times. Carolina Miranda and Ana Lucia Dominguez have me powering through it though.
  10. Snickers. Not much of a candy bar eater these days but this has been and always be my go to... 3 Musketeers not far behind. Fireballs and Butterscotch candies have given way to Wurther's.
  11. Agree with Carolina pulled pork... not too bad. Company I worked for a few years back flew us from Austin to HQ in Raleigh. Half the Austin office headed to a place called 'The Pit'. Guy working behind the counter got wind we were from Texas and basically said, "You will not like our brisket... might I suggest the following...". Had some great fried chicken that night.
  12. The end of the game on Maryland's last possession reminded me of the movie 'Miracle' in the context of Brooks(Kurt Russell) calling out the fact the Russian coach didn't know how to handle the situation with 5 seconds left. Here's to getting some more gravy to go with the dump truck full of gravy we have already got.
  13. Rage inducing... especially when cruising at 83 mph and the asshole waits until you are less than 100 yards behind to change lanes when he is pegged at 65 and going up a hill.
  14. Wow! Hell of an effort. Holy Crap! Great game!!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  15. Good lord.. those parking lots... the horror... the horror....
  16. Yessss!!!!! Maybe I can get on the basketball band wagon again for more than a week next season... Hopefully we are getting back to the days where we are competitive across the board making the wait between football seasons more bearable.

    Aliens play college football? They looking to schedule some home planet and home planet series?
  18. Bummer. Enjoyed her work. RIP.
  19. I hope the powers that be way his NCAA tournament showings more heavily than the first BigXII championship. This was Shaka ball in all its glory tonight. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  20. I do know it was a thing around that time. Youngest daughter was in high school around that time. The thing was that it was a friend of hers and her friend's 2 aggie siblings that did it. So, I thought it was another aggie tradition that I was not aware of...like 'Fork t.u.' or similar
  21. She needs to lighten up... he did include "With all due respect..."
  22. This. Homicide:LOTS, Alien, Midnight Run... One of my favorite roles of his was in 'Brubaker'. Father of the "slow clap" perhaps? Anyway, RIP Mr. Kotto.
  23. That would have been great.
  24. I hope he gets the nod eventually. I was on campus the same time he was. He never struck me as 'athletic' when I saw him walking around but he was dominant on the field.
