2019 Texas HS football
How about a 4p sub-varsity game in Brenham on a Thursday ... Between junior and senior years, trips to Brenham, Waller, Tomball, and Magnolia in Houston rush hour traffic. A beating.

Garbage Gate was just west of Abel’s, hell maybe it was a few blocks away, been a long time, not shining shoes anymore.

Garden (Garbage} Gate anyone? Across the street from Abel’s late 80’s. Also SRD waiter, great great gig.

Hey Oil Barons.......
The most bullish thing about NG at this point is positioning, CTAs are almost max short at this point. 3 out of 4 really loose misses on storage in the last month. It’s a pig. We’ll bounce, sure, but it will be of the dead cat variety.

Music Festivals Love em or hate em
Have gone to Bonnaroo the past 2 years with my daughter, heading back this year. They handle the logistics pretty well and have great food options and real restroom facilities on site. Not interested in camping there, they provide hourly shuttle service to Murfreesboro or Nashville. Music has run the entire spectrum, there is something for everyone. U2 did their first US festival there 2 years ago. Phish headlines this year. Tons of unknown and up and coming talent. Great bonding for an old and his 17 yr old daughter.

2018 Cotton Bowl - Clemson vs. Notre Dame
My son goes there, so I've watched most of their games and will weigh in...ND is solid across the board and has no glaring weaknesses. I was sold after they went to NYC after a tough travel schedule and dismantled a good Syracuse team. They will give Clemson a great game, I won't be surprised if they win.

MIA's thread of crock pot dominance
Carnitas: get the meat from HEB, if they are open. 4 ish pounds oregano, chili powder, cumin, salt, pepper. More is better. quarter an onion. Put half on the bottom of the crockpot. throw garlic cloves in. 5-37, no more. juice of 2 navel oranges, 7 small limes. place meat in, cover with rest of onion and another 5-37 garlic cloves. 8 hours on low. after 8 hours, shred meat with 2 or more forks, leave in juice for another 30 minutes, have 1-3 drinks. Set oven to broil. after 30 minutes, put meat on a pan and broil for 3-5 minutes to finish. Pour drink. serve with tortillas, rice, beans, etc... These are delicious.

Your favorite local acts while at UT
Ha! I mostly lurk, but was on the verge of having to post Bob Popular, right in the wheelhouse. JD was a good dude.

2018 Texas HS Football
My son played for Coach Allen at Stratford. Good guy, solid football coach. He had Stratford playing competitive football for the last few years even though the talent level dropped off and they were barely above the 6a cut line. I think he'll do well at Brenham.
