  1. My guess is there will be only a certain number of FlightPass seats available on each flight, unless you upgrade to the $199/month plan. Like they limit the number of seats eligible for rewards using a reasonable number of miles.
  2. My 10 year old son has been doing those for about a year now. He sat and watched some YouTubes for a few days learning the algorithms. He'd learn one series of moves in a day and make sure he knew it before learning the next. I've never blindfolded him, but I'd be surprised if he can't do it. Just this weekend he was solving it while having a conversation with me. They sell cubes that are super easy to turn--speed cubes. I'm told they drastically reduce your time. I think his best time was ~1 min. They also sell different shapes besides the classic 3x3 cube. 2x2, 4x4, triangular pyramid, etc. He learned the 4x4 at one point but forgot it because he didn't practice much. It's more involved. And then for the truly sick and twisted minds, there's this bad boy, and others that looks worse. My son claims a kid at school can solve it, but I question if he actually means "has solved it". As in, he watched a video and did it once.
  3. You have to think E Hogan is thinking about who his next partner is. He's too loyal to push Bucky out but has to know the end isn't THAT far away. I think E and Rod B would make a good team, but that's because they are the most prepared at the station. They really have to separate those 2 so they can be the anchor in their respective shows.
  4. When Harge first replaced Sean Adams, he sounded completely disinterested, like radio was a short-term gig. FCB and him together we're unlistenable. Part of that may have been because I liked Sean Adams a lot, and Harge wasn't close. I gave them another shot several months later and he seemed more engaged and had more interesting things to say. I hope he has continued to improve, because I like Rod Babers, and this pairing has potential. Of course, this assumes they aren't just shooting the shit for 3 hours.
  5. No skin off my back. It's my SIL. In her family, joke was on my FIL. Private school for 13 years, then 4 years of WF. That had to have cost >$350k.
  6. SIL is a WF grad with dual French and Art History degrees around 20 years ago. That was an expensive education to get a job doing customer service at a credit card company.
  7. Damn, La Mexicana had some absolutely killer flour tortillas. Used to go by there all the time when I lived closer to town.
  8. That would imply to me that for the 20-30 schools that you suggest, there is basically a level playing field moving forward. Right now you have some schools that are earlier to market with plans, and others that are continuing to pay under the table, but in 2-3 years, most schools should have their shit together and NIL dollars looking pretty simliar between schools. Then it gets back to more traditional recruiting pitches--the school itself, resources, location, development, etc, etc. Or maybe that's just wishful thinking by me because we should do fairly well when NIL is normalized.
  9. That seems like an important detail to remember before you start a shark attack story
  10. I've thought that many times. They just introduce a chokepoint by making people order at the counter. There has to be a reason they did it that way, though. Maybe it's another level of complexity or cost to have the Alamo model? Or worried they wouldn't have the waitstaff to handle ordering, running food, closing tabs, etc. My wife has met several people that were managers at various restaurants in the Dripping area, and they said it's REALLY hard to get good cooks to want to work out in Drip, because they want to live in Austin. The commute is too big of a hassle. The consistency of food in the area suffers because of it.
  11. This article could also be posted in Cloak Room for a different conversation, but I decided to post it here. Just another data point on why I will force all 3 of my sons to hold a job in the service industry. Learn how to treat people as well as how to react when being mistreated. Also, good to learn the lesson of "people generally suck" as early in life as possible. I can think of a few good candidates I've met from my time coaching and volunteering at DSYSA that could be the culprits mentioned in the article. perspective from Dripping Springs EVO bartender
  12. Why? He inherited the worst team in the NFL, which went 3-13 the year before he arrived. 1st year: 5-10-1 2nd year: 8-8 3rd year: 11-6 Why would that warrant a firing?
  13. Great news--I haven't lost money in the market today!
  14. I seem to remember they did a REALLY good carbonara. Not the garbage most places try to pass as carbonara which is spaghetti sitting in a bowl of cream sauce. But the type where the sauce barely coats the noodles and you hardly notice it's there.
  15. Not from my childhood, but when I was first out of college I lived off 2222 close to Mopac. Just south of Northland on either Balcones Dr. or Parkcrest was a really good Italian place. Nothing fancy. Just a neighborhood place without a lot of fuss that reminded me of the place where Michael Corleone shot Sollozzo and McClusky. they did the basics really well. For the life of me I can't remember the name of it. This would have been late 90s-early 2000s. Anyone know what I'm talking about.
  16. Ethan, do I have a mark on my face? No, I thought I hit you in the shoulder.
  17. Felt pretty good about this. Fun game. Thanks for sharing Wordle 201 4/6 ⬜🟨⬜⬜⬜ ⬜⬜⬜🟨⬜ ⬜⬜🟨🟨⬜ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
  18. "Live, local, direct, coming to you free of charge from..." At one point he was a master story teller. I used to think he made stuff up because it seemed unreal that any one person could have so much random shit happen to them. But then I realized his stories weren't THAT crazy...he was just really good and telling them and pulling out the humor.
  19. Dale was an institution, but I found him really difficult to listen to over the past few years. He always had a habit of beating a dead horse or whining, but it became unbearable. Days without him were a breath of fresh air. He always liked to say he didn't care if he got fired and would act like he may not sign a new contract. Maybe it's best that decision was made for him. I do worry about his mental health. The show was a form of therapy for him. Taking that away cold turkey can't be good.
