September 24Sep 24 If you're looking for a lesson from this story about a Sweetwater man Doordashing his order for bleach, trash bags, zip ties and a hatchet to his motel room, one possible lesson is to split up your order so it doesn't look quite so suspicious. The other, I suppose, is don't do meth. Or take hostages. Door dash driver alerts police to hostage situation after delivering suspicious items to Sweetwater motel https://www.bigcountryhomepage.com/news/sweetwater/door-dash-driver-alerts-police-to-hostage-situation-after-delivering-suspicious-items-to-sweetwater-motel/ SWEETWATER, Texas (KTAB/KRBC) – A door dash driver alerted police to a hostage situation after delivering suspicious items to a Sweetwater motel Monday morning. Neil Cooper has been identified as the suspect involved in the hostage situation at the Sweetwater Inn on Georgia Avenue around 11:30 a.m. A door dash called police to the motel because he was suspicious due to a delivery he made to Cooper’s room, but they did not disclose what items were involved, according to a press release from the Sweetwater Police Department. Witnesses told KTAB and KRBC Cooper ordered items like trash bags, zip ties, bleach, a hatchet, and more. When officers arrived at Cooper’s motel room, he refused to exit and advised he was armed. They also found a hostage being held inside. This hostage was quickly rescued then arrested for an outstanding warrant for Manufacture/Delivery of a Controlled Substance Penalty Group 1 out of Snyder as well. He’s also charged with Failure to Identify. No further information, including the hostage’s identity, has been released.
September 24Sep 24 The cool thing about that is that by using DoorDash, you not only get your tools delivered right to your door but your victim brings them to you. Edited September 24Sep 24 by Pato del Muerto

September 24Sep 24 I was driving back from Colorado and needed to spend the night around Lubbock before making the final drive back to Austin. I was outside Lubbock and thought maybe I could make it to Sweetwater, and we'd spend the night in Sweetwater. But then it occurred to me that no one willingly spends the night in a motel in Sweetwater. Guess I was right.

Hell, I've had a high-profile case in Nolan County. 2) The place just ain't the same since Allen's Family Style Meals shut down.

I banged a chick from there one night, even if they were one of our football rivals. As mature semi-adults matriculating through college, we were able to overcome our differences. See, there *is* hope for humanity!
September 25Sep 25 Sweetwater is where we make our first stop on our annual summer trip from Austin to Crested Butte. There's a place called AM Donuts at the intersection of I20 and whatever the main road is coming north into town. The people running it couldn't be any nicer. We load up on Kolaches, donut holes, and/or breakfast sandwiches to have for the entire trip. They usually throw in several things for free when my kids have a hard time deciding what to get.

Do they sell hatchets and bleach?

September 25Sep 25 Also, stay in Abilene As someone who spent 19 years in Abilene, this is horrible advice.

Meanwhile, we have Doyle Brunson, Tex Robertson, John Layfield, and Slingin' Sammy Baugh. If somehow you find yourself spending a day in Sweetwater, hit up La Cocina on Alabama Ave. Best Mexican food you can eat north of the border.

He quarterbacked the football team. That means he was a Mustang. That means Sweetwater claims him. Simple as. Quote I imagine if someone semi famous ate at a restaurant in Sweetwater, they'd claim that person as a native. Nah. Eminem stopped in to eat at a local BBQ place once. He signed at plate and it's up on the wall.

September 26Sep 26 Sweetwater had a good 4A football team in 1996, lost to Stephenville in the 3rd round in what was at the time considered an upset, believe it or not
September 26Sep 26 Sweetwater makes me want to vomit in terror and depression. Beyond the obvious-- flat, backwards-ass hellscape of nothingness and despair-- they should all burn for the way they treat their rattlesnakes. I'm serious, no living creature should be subjected to that heinous shit. Sick mf'ers

September 26Sep 26 Had to stop there on the way to lubbutt due to the Blizzard of 96. Me, two chicks, and a video camera. No booze which sucked and which I blame for not taping my first sex tape.
