  1. I gave it the ole college try today. Spread 3 bags of mulch and about 60 pounds of fertilizer on the yard. I have to put 5 gallons of water on some new live oaks for the next 10 months, so hopefully brief, daily waterings will get my yard through the summer.
  2. Any tips on the bluebonnets? We planted a some a few years back and they never bloomed.
  3. Anybody have the cliff notes on Stone traded Jarrett Allen for a rack of basketballs?
  4. Somebody better Indy they’re not supposed to win this game.
  5. Brunson just isn’t my cup of tea. She’s probably not in the top 5 funniest actors on her own show. Janelle James or Lisa Ann Walter would both make more interesting hosts.
  6. I like Locked On Rockets, but he was discussing this with this a straight face just mere weeks ago.!
  7. Well done on the least likable 5 in the NBA. Embid and George were probably asked not to play for the Flagg Hail Mary. Harden is the worst playoff superstar in NBA history. Draymond is so limited on offense. If he doesn’t injure the best player on the other team, he has zero value. Thank goodness he defrauded the Warriors out of hundreds of millions. Luka can play.
  8. This should kill off any remaining sentiment about bringing Harden back to Houston. Good riddance you regards.
  9. Was Mike working? He has to be fucking hyped about the Rockets.
  10. I love this bottle. Classic OF tasting notes.
  11. Another Simple Favor is the worst movie I’ve seen in 20 years. Blake Lively is legitimately fucking crazy. Stay strong out there dudes with wives/girlfriends. Mow the yard, take a nap, go for a run, walk the dogs, run an errand. Don’t watch this movie.

    TexMex

    I had a good meal at Pacific Coast Tacos on Shepherd today. If you can get over the California implications, it’s a darned good taco. The Ultimate Beef taco reminded me of a place in Acapulco from decades ago.
  13. Great series on the Canadian Hells Angels called Kingdom Come. They don’t mess around north of the border.
  14. The guys on The Mismatch absolutely parrot Simmons. So does Zach Lowe. So Lowe + Mismatch + Russillo in the Conspiracy Bill Echo Chamber. That’s a sizable chunk of The Ringer’s NBA coverage. If you’d like to suggest some new podcasts to listen to, I’m all ears.
  15. They need to go full Tech + Matt Rhule Baylor. Spend most of their money in the portal, and load up high ceiling/long curve developmental high school recruits. The portal part is easy. The high school part is hard. They’d have to evaluate really well, develop really well, and then retain their upperclassmen when they’re ready to play. Venables and his dumb ass “GM” don’t have the tools to any of that shit, so they’ll wander in the desert until they’re humbled and hire a guy like Dillingham.
  16. Again need a miracle + another bad Curry night, but an early local tip could help. A lot of fans are going to be getting off work/in traffic at 6pm Pacific.
  17. Unfortunately I started listening to a lot of The Ringer and The Athletic NBA podcasts. They now run my Spotify feed. Some truly stunning horrific recent takes: - Leaving the Nuggets for dead after Game 3. If I hear one anecdote about the Clippers’ defender depth I’m going to vomit. James Harden plays 35+ minutes a night for them. Unless Bill Russell is playing center, they’re going to have problems on defense. Simmons started the Clippers hype train because he’s a season ticket holder and of course his staff just parrots it. - Penciling the Lakers into the Western Conference Finals after Game 2. LeBron is their only plus defender/rim protector, 40 years old, and you need him desperately on offense too. Terrible matchup against Ant.
  18. Need a miracle to win Game 6, but they’re still kicking.Things could be much worse, we could be the Lakers.
  19. The no heat jalapeños is probably the worst thing they’ve ever done.
  20. Are the individual bottles all spoken for?
