  1. https://cbsaustin.com/news/local/nw-austin-bar-patrons-tackle-man-after-he-points-gun-at-bartender-crime-family-violence-arrest-anderson-mill-pub

     

    According to an arrest affidavit, 41-year-old Gavin Edward Rush entered the Anderson Mill Pub located at 10401 Anderson Mill Road Unit 121 just after 11:30 a.m. on Saturday, November 26 to confront his ex-girlfriend as she worked her shift. She was not speaking to him at the time.

    There is a growing concern on Tuesday about how a man accused of pulling a gun on his ex-girlfriend in a northwest Austin bar could be released on $40,000 bond in less than two days.

     

    A surveillance video posted on Twitter by Austin Councilmember Mackenzie Kelly shows Rush placing a leather satchel on top of the bar.

     

    The police affidavit states that when she refused to talk to him, Rush pulled out a pistol and pointed it at her with a red dot from a laser sight centered on her chest. That’s when two customers tackled Rush and held him until Austin police arrived.

  2. Verlander's such a choker. He is to the world series what Kirk Cousins is to prime time.

    I understand when teams leave the starter in for a few extra if they don’t have the depth.

    Don’t have a couple starters that haven’t pitched in the playoffs?

    After giving up three already then a couple on in the heart of their lineup should have generated a hook.

    I don’t know if it’s loyalty or the fact that his rough starts hadn’t hurt us till now, but that extra batter or two hurt.
  3. First time in the history of the world someone appreciated a recommendation to BWW.

    It turned out good.

    On a related note the Canelo GGG fight was going on on BWW was not showing the fight. The phone would not stop ringing with people looking for the fight. The waitress was going to hear that phone in her sleep. Guests waiting for their to-go order started answering for a stretch.
  4. Thanks for the responses. It sounds like there aren’t any big cons that would prevent us from moving away from U-verse. I was concerned that if we moved and didn’t like it, we couldn’t get back to UVerse since they aren’t taking new customers.

    The big plus I am really looking forward to is the ability to stream it on the smart TVs in the garage (my gym) and the back porch next to the pool.

    Thanks all. I think we are going to make the move. Gotta call AT&T and cancel the UVerse. This oughta be fun.

  5. My new-ish neighborhood only offers U-verse and Suddenlink.

     

    AT&T isn’t perfect but it has LHN and AT&T SportsNet for Astros games.

     

    I went to change plans and the only way to do that is to call AT&T. Fuck that. Before I call to discuss a damn thing, I want to know what the options are.

     

    It looks like they are shifting to DIRECTV Stream. It still has LHN and ATTSN.

     

    Anyone use it already? Any issues I should know about.

  6. That sounds frustrating. I assume you chose your builder off the rec of someone you know. Did they have the same issue? I don’t have a rec for people that pick up unfinished projects but I can tell you I got very inpatient at times as the weather warmed.

    The communication was largely nonexistent during my install. Prior to the start I might get a communication every 10 days or so as we finalized the design and signed the contract.

    Once the digging started, I didn’t get much communication at all. Some days there would be work. Some days not. The latest example was the stone work for the coping. there would be days without anyone showing up, then three days in a row of good work, then nothing for a few days.

    It felt odd not to get an explanation but I imagine the pool company is working multiple projects and using teams that have busy schedules. Throw in supply deliveries and equipment delivery, I just went with it.

    Good luck.

  7. I was talking about everyone’s pool costs, not sod. This thread would be so much more powerful to price compare. The posting of the pool specs above was great.

    Here was our final quote. Our contract in pflugerville for 15x28’ pool going from 3-6’ deep with spa and adding some deck. Contract total was $83 k

    Our quotes ranged from $83 to $110k for essentially the same pool.
