  1. T-Mo language acts like it will be ongoing. They mention that after the first year they may move YTTV to your T-Mo bill to continue get the discount. This was in response to the customer annoyance at the prospect of having to do this process again in a year.

    YTTV language reads like it's just for a year.

    Reads to me that T-Mo and YTTV struck a deal for 1 year, but T-Mo intends to keep doing it...we'll see if that changes in a year.

    Although depending on the promotion, various T-Mo plans currently gives away free Hulu (legacy Sprint program), Netflix, Amazon Prime (older but active promotion), and now YTTV discount to replace their short lived streaming product. I imagine some of this will get consolidated at they continue the merger process.

    The answer is likely buried in this thread, but is LHN available on YTTV?
  2. Giving my guy who runs a small mom and pop by my office a new list of bourbons I'm looking for that are tougher to find.

    Good list, jealous if your guy gets these for you.

  3. If I remember correctly it is because of a federal law that prohibits forced use of a toll road. Interstate Commerce Act, maybe?

    There’s a federal that prevents the conversion of existing interstate lanes to tolled lanes - have to build additional. There’s a state law that prohibits conversion of an existing state facility to tolled. That’s why you see CTRMA tout that the frontage roads were improved on 290, Bergstrom,etc. that’s the equivalent facility for the old highway. On SH 45, the old 620 had a bypass under the railroad and Parmer, so they had to add a free bypass after they had opened.
  4. Brat is right.  You may not like 130 and that's fine but it still serves a big community and will help bring desperately needed development to this part of town as development pops up around it.
    Also, anyone who says trucks don't take 130 don't ever drive on 130. You could ban trucks from 35 but you would have a lot of empathy HEBs, Targets, CVSes and just about every other commercial building considering they all require trucks to service loading docks.

    Also, the rebuild was done by the contractor under warranty. Drove them to bankruptcy but didn’t spend public$

  5. boy there is a lot to digest in this thread and a lot of back and forth emotions for me for sure
    Mack Brown...I like him as a person, he did great things here, hell of a casista salesman, but fuck he just let it all fall apart and after he did he acted like Texas fans should just accept that and give him some time to hang out in one of those casistas and relax and tan while he tried to see if he could find some young hungry guys that wanted to tear a hodge podge of recruits that fit no system at all new assholes and get them in shape......then when he was told that is not how it fucking works at Texas he got kind of pissy.......but yea I still like him and there is enough time between his time here and going to UNC that I really do not have concerns how he does there.....the truth is he needed to go and without casista time he was not going to have what it took to get it back (or to find the young guys to get it back)......fuck anyone that does not understand that and their thinking
    I have said all along I really like Rick Barnes and have a lot of respect for him.....but fucking shit he was just not getting over the hump and yet again as if anyone really needed proof.......well here is the 2021 season to prove it.....I actually feel bad for him in a way he has a hell of a lot of success, but just no real hardware to show for it....at this point either Texas needs to start getting into elite 8s and final 4s consistently while Rick gets in some sweet 16s and I could feel good for him.....or maybe he needs to pull a Joey Freshwater/Shaka (with hair) and dip out on Tennessee and then go have success somewhere like UNLV or Nevada or Fresno.....then people could go with the "it is Tennessee" and will have mostly forgotten about Texas
    Charlie.....fuck I actually was thinking he should get another year.....until that Kansas game and those field goals......then it hit me he really is regarded.......he entered Texas with probably the shittiest setup of any coach in recent history taking over form Mack.......the shit head for an AD......he was like the 6th choice after the worlds shittiest coaching search since the last Tennessee football coaching search......alumni saying dumb shit......but after that Kansas game......and then he goes to a USF program and acts like he is taking over a world beater and the media is all sucking his cock and he runs them right into the fucking ground that will probably take them a decade or more to climb out of if not longer.......he is a career coordinator that got lucky as hell that Texas was desperate and in the shit and I really do not wish him ill will and hope he just treads along as a coordinator somewhere that we never have to hear about ever again, but if he ever gets another head coaching job I will bet against him every time and tune in for the laughs at how to fucking lose games and do stupid shit while standing there looking like a dumb fuck
    Tom....I said when he was hired I was worried about how big of a chode he made out of himself in that interview while he was at UH and he might not be ready for UT and the media at UT.....then I saw that grocery cart of food when he moved to Austin and worried Texas was fucked....then the lack of personal accountability......the stupid backpack shit against a fucking worthless Missouri team......then the "we are back" shit........GTFO Tom you are OUT OF HERE!......if you had even a bit of  accountability, introspective, or humbleness.....or a thought on what to do besides business cards....and oh yea the sledge hammer shit you might have turned it around.....instead you slugged Dasani by the tanker truck load and looked like a dumb fuck as to why the media was asking you simple shit about the simple shit you were fucking up and not straightening out.....don't let the door hit you in your Mensa on the way out Tom and take your business cards and sledge hammer with you dumb ass
    finally Shaka....as someone else pointed out above.....came here and made others players play his system.....then totally abandoned that system....WTF is that shit.....after that it was like a mix of late year Mack and press conference Tom and on the field Charlie......just seemed to have no fire or desire to actually get shit straightened out FUCKING NOW like late year Mack....seemed clueless why people were lighting a fire under his ass like press conference Tom......and just total WTF coaching like on the field Charlie....I do like that he walked the fuck out and took a new job and saved Texas 7 million, but he took enough money already to say fuck you and something tells me as mentioned above that there will be some "baked cake" type shit if anyone ever interviews him and touched on why he left Texas and it will be like USF Charlie.....it will somehow be all about the issues at Texas that a coach is not responsible for and it was the fault of someone else.....so thanks for saving the $7 million, but fuck you and lose a lot to the point everyone forgets about sucking your cock like they did USF Charlie

    Your description if Shaka is a thing of beauty.
  6. How bad is this fucking up small time landlords? Seems like many are gonna be cash strapped soon.

    Somebody said it upthread but I’ll reiterate. My one rent house is up 33%. No HS cap obviously. It will take 6 month’s rent to pay the property taxes, and no, I can’t raise the rent.
  7. How foes the property tax cap that was enacted last session play here? Is the cap on the effective rate or the total bill? In other words will the taxing entities have to reduce their effective rates to account for property values increasing so much beyond the allowable cap?

  8. getting annoyed at the fact my local HEB only has them randomly, never on the weekend.
    stuck with searching the app every day waiting for them to pop up and make a trip...

    Mine rarely has them out but usually has them cryovac’d in the back if you ask.

  9. Haha don’t ask don’t tell. No, I haven’t seen that happen (banning for inquiries). Most I’ve come across are really good about information, questions, and as many picks as you could want if you’ve got the time on the weekends. It’s the other releases that one person posts a comment/question about (usually a newbie whose new hobby is to acquire as many as possible regardless of consumption) that someone then provides the nuclear codes. I do always get a laugh out of the late trucks and mid-afternoon releases like Tilted Bottles’ store yesterday. Not because I personally got anything... but because all the jokers in their trucks or lawn chairs at 9am either left empty-handed 2-3 hours earlier, or they wasted extra time of their day having to wait around or come back.

    This. Picked up an OWA at TW in Austin last week about 4:30 in the afternoon. I’d heard there had been a drop that day and figured I’d be lucky to find a bottle of BT left. The store had obviously been metering bottles out during the day rather than reward the 9:00 line.

  10. We went through this about 6 weeks ago. Was leery of buying sight unseen online. Tried Purple, Casper, Sleep Number, Austin mattress and others at local store fronts, then ended up buying a Ghost Bed from Costco online sight unseen. Figured it was Costco, could tale it back if it sucked, and it was $$ cheaper than those other options. Live this thing. It’s really firm without feeling like a board, sleeps cool and had an adjustable base. Quite happy with the purchase.
