Dallas - Even Shittier than Normal
A lot of the elementary school are having under-enrollment problems as well because people aren't moving. They're sitting on low rates and tons of equity, but where are you going to move to unless it's out of state (which we are eyeing) The whole rumor about a holy man in India "blessing" Frisco may or may not be true. If so, it seems a marketing ploy to generate momentum. In reality, it's all the corporate buildings and HQ's up here. Tons of land, subsidies from Plano & Frisco to build, and a massive demand for skilled white-collar labor. Are there shenanigans with Visa's.....probably, but that isn't localized to just Frisco. People are social creatures and like gravitates toward like. I'd do the same if there was a pocket of hillbilly crackers in Mumbai and I moved there. Not sure if curry and Schlitz go together, but I'd find out.

Probably fine. If you're not entrusting your life to it or taking it on some back-country excursion, who cares. If it works, it works. Go stab some shit and post pics.

Dallas - Even Shittier than Normal
Meh. Live in Frisco. Kid a senior in HS. The beforementioned claim of shittier athletics and difficulty making the top 10% is true. Again, meh. I did see that Frisco had 17 perfect SAT scores, which is a statistical improbability, but we'll see. Academic cheating is rampant up here, but that's everyone. Not saying that is the case, but there are lots of questions. One elementary school is almost 90% Indian, so the numbers are rising. The Costco off Eldorado sucks saggy tits when the temple lets out or they park their cart in the middle of the isle to talk to others. That should be a justifiable homicide ruling, but that isn't race specific. Talking to you Dolores and Francis gabbing about g-children and knitting styles. Move your shit or I will beat you to death and shove your crusty old body under a 50lb bag of rice. I don't give two shits except for the fact that many of the drivers are 1st gen and can't drive for shit (one old Indian bitch hit my son in a double turn lane, claimed "no english" and just drove away), and the gym hygiene is a little spicy. Other than that, come buy my overinflated house as I fade into Bolivian...

My little Chinese Civivi Praxis folder is still going strong. D2 steel. Murdered an ungodly amount of delivery boxes and still haven't needed to sharpen. $30 on Amazon.

Texas BBQ
I live in Frisco. There is a Market Street up here (grocery store) with a bar in it, so I can grab a beer while getting my wife a box of q-tips. Their wine selection is stellar, and recently I've seen RLV Cabernet. Rancho Loma Vista. It's not bad. I usually keep a few bottles for when family of friends that have been through Coleman come over. So glad they are doing well. I've never stayed at the B&B, but I have visited it and met with the owners. Former Texas Monthly people that moved out there decades ago. Good friends with the Goree family that own the T-Bone ranch outside of Valera. As in the Goree expo center at the rodeo grounds. Massive Odessa O&G family with obvious deep pockets. Between those two families they've revitalized the town. Car show last year they have downtown Uploading Attachment...Uploading Attachment...Uploading Attachment...Uploading Attachment...

The Gun Owner’s thread
Made the pew-pew with the new AR. Tried to fire standing at 50 yds. Ooooofff. That was, um, humbling. I was as shaky as an old barn door. Reticle just bounced back and forth over the target. Managed to keep them all around basketball-sized group, but damn. I'm old....

Sadly, Big O's is no more. Lynn closed the doors and I haven't been by there in a while. Not a surprise Smokesmith closed, as I never saw anyone in there over the years. Rancho was so spectacularly successful because it gave small town patrons pizza and appetizers that rival anything in the big city. Black Cur is amazing as well. There is a BBQ place on the north side of town, on the same strip as Allsups called Bella's. Might be worth checking out, but I've never been there. Our usual rotation is Cattle Drive (try the Kylee Special with steak) or Owl's for lunch. Pizza or Steaks for dinner if the kids are with us. The olive oil store next to Cattle Drive has a great assortment of stuff, so I'd grab a few bottles if you can. Where are you staying? At Rancholoma?
