  1. Good list, agree with OP that Conan's is far more "iconic Austin" than Homeslice.  Swap those out and I'm pretty good with it.

    Texadelphia's Founder's Favorite might also be a legitimate addition, it's certainly iconic and Austin, even if it's not the best cheesesteak in the city.

  2. That was a great show, aside from Dave constantly calling us in the audience a bunch of MFers.

     

    (I'm just kidding Dave, I can't quit you, I'll be your MFer if you insist)

     

    My favorite FF song of all time is Everlong, and then of course it was the final song / encore (non-encore because Dave said)

    Yeah, a small teardrop style camper may be in my future. But I'm talking super small, like just the bed/sleeping area inside, have the kitchen outside. I want something super light.

    Those were relegated to DIY kits or renovating vintage units for a long time, but now there are quite a few new options on the market. It's been a lot of fun seeing some of the vintage styles (and sensibilities) return to the industry in recent years.

    Still have my Atari 400 that I "upgraded" to have the same memory as the Atari 800... I even swapped out the crappy membrane keyboard for a real tactile one.  Hell - still in the original box, with the cassette drive and 5 1/4" floppy drive ... and BOXES of "acquired" software/games on those (at the time) expensive floppies.  My guess is they've all deteriorated/derezzed/otherwise gone bad.  

    Ha!  I do, too.  Exact same upgrades on memory and keyboard.  I have the cassette tape drive but never got a floppy drive because I'd moved on to my Apple IIc at that point.

    My first computer ever was the Timex Sinclair 1000, bought it with lawn-mowing money, and I still have it, too.  

    Also still have the Apple IIc, and a Mac512K that I "inherited" from a computer lab at UT.

    The Timex, Atari 400, and Apple IIc all still worked last I checked them maybe 2-3 years ago?  I have an old 20" Zenith CRT TV that I use as a monitor for that, and for my collection of VHS and Betamax VCRs...

    I need some travel trailer talk.  been looking at little ultra-lite travel trailers that my 4runner could pull.  ~ 3500 lb trailer.  

    I'm cool with blending the RV talk here on the camping thread, if others are? 

    I love the little Casitas and Scamps, those are great trailers.  The new Aistream Nest is in that same family of small fiberglass trailers, but if the Casitas and Scamps are a little pricey, the Airstream is bust-the-bank type stuff.  Very cool, though.

    Well its a very expensive taplist. you should really take a look at it and be as disgusted as I am.

    (look, this website is wonky. i can't post the pics from a 3rd party site. it don't make no sense.)

     

     

    I'm gonna go ahead and assume it's a bunch of IPAs, DIPAs, and hazy IPAs.  Perhaps even a trio of NEIPAs...

    Extra virgin olive oil, house cheese blend, local artisan sausage, poblano peppers, ricotta cheese, and cilantro.

    Yup, I like that one.  Why do you hate Poblano peppers?

    But the one I get the most often is the Banh Mi.  Or, just a pizza roll and a salad, to save room for more beer.

  8. I'm not sure why anyone is mentioning PHP as "overrated" when their pizza has been widely criticized for years.  That said, PHP's pizza has gotten a lot better over the past couple of years.  It's still not going to win any awards, but it's decent.

    The pizza rolls are very good, and the beer is excellent.  But talking food only, I don't think it's ever been "rated" highly enough by anyone, to ever refer to it as "overrated."
