  1. Sat next to JR at Randy Johnson’s home debut for the Astros. I had no idea who he was at the time, but Dad handed me a baseball and said go ask that man over there for his autograph.

  2. Ok, just saw it was gone at the Peach Festival.  Darn about Fire Oak, it was on my want to try list.

    It’s next to the funeral home on the southeast corner of the square. The guy running the register at the old AME cigars said they moved after having had some issues with the landlord, either not fixing shit or jacking up the rent.

  3. The Italian restaurant on the square closed so bet that probably might be where it opens.

    It did not close, it moved around the corner from its previous location about two months ago. Douchelove is inhabiting the space previously known as Fire Oak.
  4. It’s nuts.  There have been three rollovers in the Houston area this week, including two in the Cleveland school district.  All 58 kids on that bus were taken to the hospital. 

    Can’t get in touch with guardian, kid goes to hospital to be evaluated. In the state of Texas a minor can’t tell you they’re not hurt/injured; only a responsible adult can make that determination for them. But it has to be a related responsible adult. Not related, you can’t say so, even if it’s a scratch on the finger. Yay for lawyers
  5. Bought a belt squat attachment for my rack that was on sale as I was finding doing barbell squats was starting to twinge my lower back.
    Put it together and used it Saturday (next leg day manana). Have to say, really like the depth of squat I can get, the fact that the weight is on my hips vs back/shoulders etc
    Want to put it through its paces prior to fully recommending but early return is positive.

    The belt squat is a surprisingly versatile machine. You can do multiple leg movements and quite a few rowing variations as well. Dave Tate has a YouTube video somewhere (yes I know, on YouTube) of him working with Louie Simmons and Chuck Vogelpohl on an entire training session centered around the belt squat and reverse hyper. I’ll see if I can find it
