Texas @ Texas Tech 11am on CBS
Watching Mike Boynton coach against Lon Kruger heading into OT right now. Makes me wonder what a real game day coach could do with the Longhorn roster this year.

Exterior Faucets- Did you wrap or drip? Damage or no damage?
Team wrap. Both froze. Both thawed without damage. Might do something different next time, thinking Freeze-Miser.

VY steakhouse
Vince sold name and likeness a long time ago. That said, was a go-to place when I worked downtown. Never had a bad steak here, and Pappy at the bar. Miss that expense account...

Texas deep freeze carnage thread
My WCID advising leaving street gate open and having fixtures open in house for pressure relief as they bring system back online in areas that lost service. Suspect this protects their equipment more than your house.

Wind generation very small impact. Mostly natural gas plants that weren’t ready for cold weather and froze up combined with just in time delivery of feed supply that couldn’t be supplied because well heads and pipelines froze.

Apparently dripping the hose bibs was the correct answer. My neighbors and I all covered. All frozen.

Texas deep freeze carnage thread
This is my theory and I’m sticking to it. All my interior fixtures working and dripping. 2 hose bibs wrapped, protected and hopefully unfrozen. I’m not touching them until we get past this. if they are frozen I figure I’ve got a better chance unfreezing them once.

Texas deep freeze carnage thread
I’ve never dripped an outside faucet, including growing up north of the Red River where we regularly got freezes like this. Always just put a hose bib cover on and didn’t worry about it. Today I see multiple sources saying to drip the hose bib. I’m confused. What says Surly?

coffee / coffee makers
If you want to support local go to Trianon in Westlake and let them hook you up with beans that match your taste. Or just buy Ruta Maya.

coffee / coffee makers
We’ve got an older version of this, bought at Costco a long time ago. When it started giving us problems after about 5 years I took it back and they gave us another one. Have a French press but prefer the no mess simplicity of a drip. The key to me is to get a burr grinder, find beans you like and grind fresh every time.

This. Squandered resource. I’ve never understood why we didn’t use the LHN to program and broadcast every single event on campus, athletic and nonathletic, that wasn’t otherwise licensed. We could also highlight major research projects to attract students and donors. They did that recently with one project on noise research, then played it every 20 minutes like every other thing on the network. Why not a couple of hundred of those? Coach profiles, professor profiles, student athlete profiles? Promo videos for the programs on campus? More shows like the Augie cooking show - literally the best thing ever programmed on the channel that wasn’t a replay of an Aggy or OU loss. I’ll stop there because it ain’t gonna happen and I don’t really know why.
