  1. We've been listening to the audiobook as a family, and we all love it.  Made it about 3/4 of the way through on our drive to Colorado a week ago.  Can't wait to finish it, but that's going to wait 2 weeks when we drive home.

    They’ve got some cosmopolitan types who are mighty fine. But otherwise….yeah. As the boy has described them, with a sigh, “they’re all short, round, and orange.” The fake tan makeup they put on to cover up their paleness…it’s not good. Find a pretty and posh one, avoid the orange ones.

  3. I mean, that legacy formula is beyond stupid.

    Lebron win a title with 3 DIFFERENT teams.  One of them being the Cavs.  That is remarkable.

    Tom Brady going to the Bucs and winning a SB knocked him below Terry Bradshaw in the eyes of dipshit Acho.  I'm embarrassed that guy went to Texas.

    Quinn once was a bond villain.

    Mind blown. I've seen FRWL 50 times i bet. Easily a top 2-3 Bond movie for me.  I can't believe I didn't know this. Lol

  5. Longhorn Meat Market in far South Austin.

    Their website isn't kept up to date as far as what's in stock, but if you call they can tell you if they have something or when they'll have more.

    They have lots of styles to choose from--beef, pork, "regular", flavored.  Beef and sage is my favorite around the holidays to have on hand.  Venison and wild boar jalapeno cheese might be my favorite overall.

    Levon WAS Loretty’s papa in Coal Miner’s Daughter. “Don’t do it, Loretty.  Don’t thow yore young laff aweigh.  Girl, you’re my shinin pradd. Stay in Butcher Holler.”  I had no idea that was Levon Helm until I read it somewhere.  Made me feel like a fool! I thought they rounded up a coon hunter from fown the holler somewhere.  He was so beautifully authentic.

    Holy hell, I had no idea that was Levon Helm.  I just googled it, which led me to find out this old guy in Shooter was him as well.

    Ooooh, they landed a booster on the deck of a barge.  NASA put men on the fucking moon, dipshit.

    And got them home. That's always been the most amazing part of the whole thing to me.

    It’s not, I just don’t want them ringing the bell. Amazon doesn’t do it, FedEx doesn’t do it. Just UPS. 

    I bet it has something to do with reducing the rate of stolen packages due to porch pirates.

    Ring the bell, have the people inside come get their package. Transaction complete and everybody's happy.

    If I was a driver, I wouldn't think twice about your sign if that was our policy. I'm alerting you to something I dropped off on your porch---I'm not selling you anything.

    But if I knew it irritated you, I'd ring it 10 times and run:) That's just me going the extra mile

    I had a simple No Soliciting sign that worked probably 95% of the time, but up to 100% since I upgraded to this (a version like it anyway).

    Fucking UPS still knocks or ring the bell though. They’re the only ones. 

    How is UPS dropping off a package soliciting?

  10. Was the $3M what the other candidates were asking for, or that's the Earley buyout that was too high?

    I'm pretty sure firing Earley would cost them $3M + $700k to fire the assistant HC/pitching coach + whatever the incoming coach buyout would be + a big contract to convince a coach at a real school to come to College Station where the Athletic Department is currently a dumpster fire.  They were always going to retain Earley.  This is Trev Alberts we're talking about.

    The funniest part of this may be that Earley just got a raise of $50k for the upcoming season.

    Job well done!

    That is a man with NO clue what he is doing.  "We just need things to settle down a bit".  What the fuck does that mean?

    Dude in the back doesn't seem too impressed, either.

  12. My wife started getting notices from LifeLock about someone applying for a Short Term payroll loan with her SS# about a year ago.  Contacting LifeLock was essentially worthless.  They can't tell you any specifics, but we did put some sort of a lock on her account from anybody using her SS# for short term loans.  She continues to get alerts about every 3 months with the same message of someone applying for a short term loan, but they don't seem to be successful in receiving one.

    We've received credit reports several times over the past 12 months and none of them show any alarming open credit in her name.

    We recently decided to order another level of credit report from DataX, and there is a different address, phone number, bank account, and email address showing up under my wife's name and SS#.  Google search gives no indication of the phone number being valid, and the address isn't real.  There is an employer listed, although it sounds made up and I can't find anything online.  The bank listed IS real, though.

    Anyone have experience or advice on next steps we should follow, besides pics of wife?

    That close to Lubbock they should have gone with tortilla.

    The next few days look wet.

    And like clockwork the "99%" chance of rain in Austin tonight evaporates.
