  1. Kid that used to work for me just got hired by Apple here in Austin doing GIS work. Pay is 30k. He can't afford to live here. Drives 90 minutes to and from work. 


    He’s most likely a temp making $16/hr. They lay them off after 4 months and then hire them back after being off the books for 2 months. I’m sure they haven’t told him that part of it. We have a lot of contractors that have come from that Apple sweatshop during that layoff period.
  2. I should get my 23&me results in early JAN.

    It’ll be interesting to see if there’s anything in my dad’s paternal side. From my, admittedly shallow, research, there are no relatives at all. Everyone either had 1 kid or no kids even though all were married going back to the guy that got off the boat from Alsace. I would think there’s some unknown births in there somewhere.

    On my mom’s side, I’m sure something will pop up. Probably from her brothers. I know of at least two women that claim a kid is one of theirs but they don’t know which brother since they tag teamed both of those chicks.

  3. Vietnamese sausage is easy to make.  You don't stuff it, unlike your mom.  Just mix it together and form patties or links and then grill.  There are tons of recipes on the intertubes. 

     

  4. The GOP Senators are turning on this. 
    Yesterday I said "1 more thing" and the Senate abandons him. 
    If he sticks to this, he's being impeached. For both criminal and de facto national security reasons.


    Those bitches will do as they’re told. They know who their daddy is.
  5. Carne Guisada

    Ingredients:

    • HEB preseasoned Carne Guisada pack
    • container of HEB hot pico
    • 1 1/2 cups water
    • Tortillas

    1. Saute meat.

    2. Dump in water and pico.

    3. Set pressure for 25 minutes.

    4. Quick release, check for tenderness. Feel free to add time if you need to.

    5. When done, put on saute and dump in a corn starch slurry to thicken.

    6. Make a taco. Eat taco.

  6. Wild Child - Expectations...Such a great album. Easily a half dozen quality singles without a bad track on it.  Wild Child should be huge but they won't be. 
    Curtis Roush - Cosmic Campfire Music...I didn't have high expectations for Curtis Roush's solo offering but it's a spacey yacht rock album that I love. Very easy listening. 
    Nine Inch Nails - Bad Witch...I still don't think I like Atticus Ross' influence on NIN that much but this album is brutal.
    Fuzz Club Records - The Reverb Conspiracy Volume Five...Compilations shouldn't be this good but this is a great psych album.
    Amigo the Devil - Everything is Fine...Evil fucking singer-songwriter tunes from the depths of hell.
    Erika Wennerstrom - Sweet Unknown...I love the Heartless Bastards and this album is pretty much in the same vein. 
    The Sword - Used Future...They caught some shit for this album being "dad rock" but fuck it, it's awesome and grooves like a mother fucker.
    Dream Wife - Dream Wife...Feminist guitar driven rock. Good stuff. They will probably break big soon.
    Turbowolf - The Free Life...They were going to open for the cancelled Royal Blood show at Stubb's and ended up playing a free show indoors. I'm glad I stayed for it. Love this album.
    All Them Witches - ATW...It's been said above but ATW is the shit. So fucking awesome.

  7. Probably posted this before but it’s so good.

    I’m home alone tonight so it’s my favorite poor meal. Can of HEB charro beans, hot link, jalapeño, onion, and tomato. Add a packet of Sazon.

    Mrs Brown may getting a Dutch oven tonight.

    At least you recognize the stupidity.  I have range bags.  I have a travel backpack.  They never, ever, mix.  Nothing I have ever used as a range or hunting bag will ever go to an airport.  And vice-versa.  It's just too easy to miss a stray round or magazine hanging out in an inner pocket.

    Just the powder residue will cause you heartache if you get selected for extra screening.
