  1. I snuck into the bathroom to take a shit while my kids were eating lunch. The 3 year-old barges in with a mouthful of alfredo and says "Squeeze it out, dada."

    One of the reddit posts said the body is still there. They just "sealed" the cave hole in the ground. 

    I just read the Nutty Putty Cave wiki. I understand basically every other form of thrill-seeking more than spelunking. That is fucking nightmare fuel.

  3. Mind-blowing report from here in Williamson County. A possible whinchat, which would be the 1st ever anywhere in the Americas, was photographed near Granger this morning. It hasn't been refound yet, but I may give it a shot tomorrow. 

    Pretty unassuming little guy, but he is very lost. Next closest record is the Azores.

  4. Had a Vermillion flycatcher today at Old Settlers in Round Rock. Poor photo and just a juvenile male, but a nice surprise. The adult males are truly spectacular.

    BYU is ass. But whoever loses this game should drop out of the playoff picture no matter what 

    BYU has another loss in them with TCU and Cincy upcoming. Hopefully Tech is the sole Big 12 rep.

  6. It has been a slooooow autumn, but my 3 year-old pointed out a flock of sandhill cranes flying over the playground at dusk. Great birds. I need to visit the Platte River one day to see the enormous flocks gathering during migration.

  7. I think we tried to keep our kid in the house for a weekend, keeping him in underwear and taking him to the toilet every half hour or so. Tried once not too long after he turned 2 with no luck, but it seemed to work a few months later.

    Getting him to shit in the toilet instead of asking for a diaper was a far greater challenge for us.

    Well timed bye week.

    The next game is the biggest game of the season. We should lose but...that is why we play the games.

    I hate having to look at Kirby Smart though. I have an irrational hatred of that motherfucker I am not even sure why. He brings up Barry Switzer levels of rage in me.

    Because he's fucking obnoxious and has an elementary school haircut.

  9. My 3 year-old successfully participated in his daycare's Halloween parade today. He was a cowboy. This is a big step, as last year he would not even get in his Mickey Mouse costume.

    I don't know if I've ever seen anything more adorable than one hundred 2-4 year-olds proudly parading around in their costumes.

  10. The good thing about these elections is they force you to put some degree of thought into them. 

    Pre-2016, I always at least made sure there weren't any glaring red flags to the D candidates, or some exceptional R. For candidates nowadays, all I have to do is see who Abbott and Co. are endorsing for "non-partisan" positions, pick anyone else, and my research is done.

    It’s not going to get better. Once Orange dies people aren’t just going to wake up to not being stupid racist and selfish fucks. They are going to keep on and probably get much worse.

    True, but they also didn't wake up and become that way in 2016. 

    I honestly have a very grim outlook on the future, but I am curious what a post-Trump America looks like.
