  1. It's only 8:45 CDT, but I'd slam that AI sandwich right about now.
  2. We got my mom and sister to evacuate Houston ahead of Rita. They sat in traffic for 19 hours to get to Tyler. After that, they were like Quin ("I'll never put on a life jacket again"). She rode out Ike and had no power for 3 weeks. When Harvey flooded Houston, my mom had to be evacuated from her street by fire truck. Their respective philosophies were that it would be too difficult to get back into town to take care of their homes after the storm danger passed. It's dumb, but then again, riding out a hurricane in west Houston isn't like riding one out on the coast. That said, if I still lived there, and having ridden out Alicia as a kid, I wouldn't stick around for any of it. Grab the wife, kids, hard drives with the family photos, the dogs, and a couple of guitars and bug out. It's just stuff.
  3. My first UT game. We got rained on. Then, we tied. Ugh.
  4. I believe you misread. He's going to play a round in Pampers on Wednesday.
  5. Yeah, those shingles vaccines were both beatings for me. Glad that's in the rearview.
  6. This was my reaction the first time I read the book.
  7. We were so focused on can we do it, we didn't consider the question of should we do it.
  8. I got the COVID and Flu shots last month. No side-effects.
  9. We stopped by the Terry Black's location in Waco on our way to Austin a week or so ago for dinner. That place was packed. Unfortunately, for the first time, the food was a little subpar on the brisket front. Big hunk of unrendered fat in the brisket. The ribs still were solid, but the Dallas location has been extremely reliable for decent food with little to no wait. I Hope I just hit them on an off night.
  10. Has anyone checked on our friends in the gambling community?
  11. Best bye week ever. This goes well, we're back to #1.
  12. This could salvage the Bye week aggy win quite well.
  13. I lived at Benchmark Apartments for a couple of years. Great location except for when they tested the sirens early each morning.
  14. Nice little family dinner
  15. Stay away from 2010 unless you like replacing head gaskets and chasing gremlins. Bought one for my older son. He drives an Accord now.
  16. Here you go. Hawkins v. McGee, 84 N.H. 114, 146 (N.H. 1929).
  17. I'm pretty sure that was one of his campaign promises this cycle, except he called it the AIDS.
  18. Brent Venables thinks the games against UofH, Tulane, and LSU also are the Red River Showdown.
  19. RIP, Archie's balls. Vet's assistant said he was being "quite vocal" afterward. Then they gave him some pain meds and all was good. I mean, yeah, I want an aggy vet, but I feel like I'd be a bit vocal too. Maybe assume my boy wants some pain meds for his sack. They sent us home with some free of charge along with some tramadol so he chills the fook out and heals.
  20. He never had the makings of a varsity athlete.
  21. Brent Venables just hopes that both teams have fun.
