And then we could all write letters to the aggies for being such gracious and wonderful hosts.

3 people arrested for attempted murder and plot to kill Williamson County judge
And somehow this is going to the back to the Chody case.

So this is why Garza got special security protection.

I thought that same thing about a week and a half ago. It is too thick.

What the fuck is wrong with you, Austin?
I did not take from that article that the decision to put 130 where it is was driven by land speculators. That actually seemed like the least discussed issue in the location. It sounded to me that the other local governments that would be affected by the alignment, rightfully, chose what was best for their communities, and that there was far more emphasis and discussion based on how many existing residents would be displaced and surrounding existing residents would be affected by the route. Throw in a little bit of "Smart Growth" restrictions and a few environmental concerns and I think that is how the route was chosen. A City of Austin planner was quoted in the article saying that the surrounding communities (Lockhart, RR, Georgetown) should be annexing the areas. So it still sounds like it wasn't an Austin decision of where 130 got dropped.

130 is a toll road built by private enterprise and none of was in the city limits when it was constructed. It was also a portion of the Trans Texas Corridor project being pushed by Perry(?) and the State. I’m not sure “we” had a say in it, did we?

Arch Manning: Scores every way possible
“He’s just an overrated 2 star from a private school and if his name wasn’t Manning no one would want him.” So I’ve been told.

Couple of billion for a train set that still hasn't broken ground and is already 3x over budget and half of the proposed size. Now add in another $billy for an airport expansion. Typical Austin Voter: "WHY IS IT SO EXPENSIVE TO LIVE HERE???"

What did those numbers look like before the first games were played? It's not Texas' fault that the aggies cannot keep themselves ranked.

He see's that Billy Luicci gravy train and he wants a taste! The formula is simple: cover up any negativity, trash the Longhorns, tell them exactly what they want to hear. Profit!

If you have a car that gets 30 mpg, you'd be burning 3.8 gallons a fuel every day to get to/from work. At $3/gallon, that is $11.40/day or $57/week. Multiply that by 50 weeks and it comes to $2,850 per year. And that doesn't account for tires/oil/wear and tear on your vehicle. I get that you are on 54 acres and individual lifestyle matters the most, but you seemed to be implying that it was financially driven by property taxes. *

Yeah, I think they suck as much as the next guy, but getting budget increases that don't even match inflation is probably the last thing to be bitching about.

But they bring in $1.8B. Then the city takes an extra $150M off the top and puts it into the General Fund. http://budget.austintexas.gov/#!/year/2025/revenue/0/fund_nm

That's just it; everyone in Austin bitches incessantly about how much everything sucks but they continue to re-elect the same people over and over and over.

Are there details on that Austin Energy number? Electric Utilities typically have a big line item in the budget to purchase power but it comes out in the wash when they actually sell it. You'd need to see the revenue chart to know for sure. If it costs $1.7B a year to run a revenue generating electric utility, then everyone involved needs to be fired immediately.
