  1. No one is going to New Orleans to eat creole pepper steak - even in 1992.
  2. Sorry for your loss. If there isn't a rush, I'd wait a bit and let things settle out. The last SS deposit will removed from the account and there is a chance that you'll have to pay back the last pension payment. My mother had POD on her accounts, but BOA froze the accounts. Depending on whether or not you mother had taxes withheld from her SS and pension payments, the estate might be entitled to a refund. My mom would get a refund check every year for about $3k and when I did her final taxes, she got a refund of $1900. Once you have a complete handle on the assets and liabilities, I would recommend talking with a probate lawyer to at least figure out the easiest way to wrap it up.
  3. Watched all four episodes today. A great story that I knew nothing about, although I knew and appreciated the artists my whole life.

    I bet Seba won't be slow walking around the mid-field while playing for River.
  5. I highly recommend getting on this Chevy truck board - its called 67-72 Chevy Trucks, but they have specific forums for 1947 forward. I have been on there for the past 20+ years and there always someone there to answer your question. I use the search function on there which enables google searches specific to the website. Here is a link to the 1947-1959 forum. The Hook'em username is already taken.

    First game will consist of me telling my wife who all the players are, over and over. That and getting to hear about replacing the entire team and still having Cascante. Listo!
  7. The Hawaiian state bird is the nēnē otherwise referred to as the Hawaiian goose. It's the rarest of gooses and I saw one in 1987 on the way down Haleakalā crater. I wonder what OP thinks about that.
  8. Interestingly, the flat iron eats more like brisket and the chuck eats more like steak. I'd like to find a couple of the full flat irons or top blade roasts and attempt to smoke. However, the butcher usually cuts them in half to remove the inedible (unless slow cooked, apparently) facia that runs across the meat (seen in the cross section cuts from L&L).
  9. What time did you get in line to be eating at 11:30 on Saturday?

    It's official - Driussi to River Plate.

    To your point - I'm fine with Driussi leaving so long as Rodo has an acceptable replacement. If somehow Rodo convinced River to pay $10m for Driussi, I'm ecstatic. Driussi really dropped once the club transferred Diego and again when the club cut ties with Rigoni. The former wasn't surprising since Diego was a key player in our offense and he wasn't immediately replaced. The later, on the other hand, was just Driussi pouting about losing his Argentinian buddy. This new team is in large part Rodo's creation. A few of the players are from the old days, but the big time players are all new. It's probably best that Rodo and Nico work with a team that doesn't have much by the way of baggage from the past. Estoy Listo!

    I am going to approach the wife with going to an away game this year. I don't see going to Houston or Frisco and probably not any of the Canada games as my passport is expired. Thinking about 5/31 San Diego, 6/7 Colorado, 6/28 Seattle, or 10/18 San Jose.
  13. You can probably guess what I blurt out when I hear someone mention Heineken.
  14. Agreed with adding hot water to the cooler before, but I would recommend less than boiling - 170- 180 degrees. Boiling water might warp the inside.
  15. Corkscrew has one of the most efficient lines in barbecue. At many other places, that line would have taken an hour. That plate is gorgeous.
  16. One serving of Oreos is equal to the number of Oreos that can fit between your thumb and your middle finger.
  17. Definitely Eaker over Coopers.
  18. I'd know the Four O 77th anywhere.
  19. I'll match your suspicious person and raise you with suspicious clouds (last Wednesday in my ND).
  20. Dallas Buyer's Club. Don't know why I waited so long to see it - it was really good.
  21. Just as I've always envisioned him.
  22. Check with his insurance. My mother's insurance covered one of those monitored bracelets 100%. ETA: check out
  23. L&L call it a Bacon Rib.
  24. My youngest lettered in three sports all four years in high school and ended in the top 12%. That was good enough to get a CAP offer from Texas. No idea how much weight was given to sports, but I suspect some. Knowing what is required to play varsity and club sports while maintaining a good academic record, I would give the nod to someone with sports (band, drama, etc) on the resume over some one without having the same or similar academics. Just the time management that is learned should be enough to make it a positive factor in decision making.
