Damn that takes me back. The food cart by RLM that had fajita tacos and fried rice? A beef fajita taco, a chicken fajita taco that would get dumped into the fried rice was a great fucking meal. I think those guys in the cart might've gotten busted for selling stolen goods or something? Their fajita had a distinct flavor that i haven't found since.

Yeah, I think that was while I was at school in the early 2000s. Selling stolen dvd players and the like

Yes, clearly different seats, along with a number of other changes. All renovations post-2015 purchase - you can swap out seats. As said, the bones are the same, including the seat configuration. Not to mention there aren't a ton of F 50s out there flying around (they were also discontinued over 10 years ago), particularly those registered to TX owners.
In fact, there's a single F50 (of any year) registered to an Austin owner. This one. 

Agreed, seats don’t mean shit.

Changing the interior structure would be a nightmare and a non-starter on a refit.

50’s are a pretty rare bird. Just not much sense for a tri-jet with a 3k range. My dads plane partner flew one for MCI then he switched to G4’s to cover Europe and Asia. He much preferred the 50.

If you hit the right plane then congrats, but your rationale in the original post is extraordinarily weak. Your argument was that the set of F50s having medium dark wood paneling, 4 place club seating in the front, a forward cabin galley, F50-shaped windows, F50 exit doors, and gold air vents contains only two planes. (By the way, the seat configuration isn't the same. The old interior has a stowable table, and the new does not.)

Are you fucking kidding me!? Since when is 35-23 one of the best programs in college football?

Maybe CDC and Hartzell aren’t the best people to be handling UT athletics.

You just reminded me of that thread we had, what, 10-15 years ago, about guys in white vans, selling speakers. Damn, I’ve read a lot of shit on these boards. Why I’m an idoit today.

I’ve thought about this since the storm really hit hard this week.

1. No one in the inner circle. UM, wife, agent, Texas team would leak shit...and that Texas team is small.

2. Nothing would come out until Herman is out. This is the big reason for crickets.

3. I’m hoping like others UM not publicly stating he will not coach again is a positive.

4. It’s like a publicly traded company and info gets leaked before earnings...good or bad. This is a no no. And Texas, and UM are pros...it won’t happen until they are ready to say something one way or the other.

Are they the same company? I wish Ft Collins had more Tex Mex options. Really the only thing I miss about living in Texas. 

Yes.  Surprised there isn’t a Chuys somewhere near you.  They franchised the hell outta those but still only one Hula Hut that I know of.  The Florida Chuys aren’t as good as the original but they are the best Tex Mex in the state.  They make cool local T-shirts too.  Gator themed in Gainesville and Disney in Orlando.  I get a lot of comments on my Juan Solo Chuys shirt when I wear it.

He was in my top 3 choices prior to the start of the season. Incredibly disappointed in what they’ve done this season - but if you look at what he built at Vanderbilt and Penn State (prior to the season) - he’s exactly what CDC is looking for

James Franklin is a fucking loser and buying out Herman to hire him is very very very close to almost as bad as retaining Herman.

Sounds like you know more than me about actual planes, I just track them down. Re the stowable table (assume that's the table stored in what runs along the edges of the plane), noticed the same though looked to me like they ripped the table out in favor of wider seats.

As for rationale being weak generally, that wasn't my argument. My argument was that the carl-photographed plane was an F50, the bones lined up and there is only ATX-owned F50 and it's flying to of all places Manhattan, KS and Palm Springs, CA. And in my mind all this is intellectual exercise because the dude who posted the photo confirmed it's the freakin' plane.

When CDC's male secretary is here posting all his secrets, it's hard to get much closer than that.

Warm is relative.  It was low 30s here this morning near Tyler.  And yeah - I never worried about the 30s until today when my furnace fan died and I have to wait until Monday for the part to come in.  Low 30s with no heat sucks ass.


yeah? Well in the summer my wife will turn on the heater to 85 because she feels like it’s too chilly when she gets out of the shower. Then, forget about it so It will be hotter than outside when I walk in the house. After I turn it back to cool, it takes all night for the house temp to come down to lower 70’s making sleep suck. Then rinse and repeat. 
Ive gotten so overheated I’ve had to go outside to my truck at 3am to sit in the AC for 30 mins. Nothing like waking up in your bed in a sticky sweat. Feels like summer camping. 

wives and the stupid shit they do, amirite

It is not hard to see a scenario where Herman hangs on to his job.  Gets blamed on Covid.

I posted it before but I’m too lazy to find it so I’ll reiterate: 

imagine having 14,000 rep from political shitposting on a fan site of a school that isn’t even in your conference let alone the one you attended and posting absolute bitchass takes like this one

Ugggh... Heim's is so overrated. It's a complete gamble whether you get good brisket or shit brisket. If they were consistent, then I'd be a bigger fan. Their BBQ sides are really good; just think they're brisket quality has gone downhill.

Bought a new car and Heim was doing a BBQ class at the dealership a few days later, so I got to attend.  He either really didn't want to share what his secrets are, or doesn't have an F-ing clue.  His tips were like BBQ 101.  In about 3 hours, I maybe learned 1 new thing.  But there was free beer too, so I was ok.  Also learned about Meat Church rubs, which if you haven't tried, you need to.  He gave samples of his BBQ and it wasn't good.  Give me Pecan Lodge over Heim's all day, every day.

Gottdam if we are even considering Franklin, we should take a step back and interview Sonny Dykes.  Pass on Franklin.  Dykes at least has some Texas ties.
