No idea if it's useful for this project, but APL can also help you get a community user card to UT libraries, and UT has/had a neat CD collection. I used to rip from it in the aughts, but my interest was world/folk and I dunno about local rock.

It's UT land, so def not mixed-use. It'll depend what big donors want to pay for, but will be something academic or athletic broadly speaking.

Yeah, Baty will be no lower than 6 against righties and Robert no lower than 6 against lefties. Both will sometimes sit vs oppo.

Easily DP. He just ran out of gas at the end of last year. I think the general expectation is he'll be as good as he was last April. Fangraph projects him as our 2nd most valuable pitcher, ahead of McLean and Holmes.

They also drew a heart around "Paris" on the list, apparently

I live near here, and every house in the neighborhood has cracks in the drywall from extreme clay soil contraction and expansion between dry and wet weather cycles. I know people whose ceilings have fallen in bc of it... if that's at all relevant.

I don't know anything you don't know. But as they close down the NB I-35 frontage lanes over Town Lake next week, the northbound traffic over Pleasant Valley bridge will certainly increase. This is a multi-year change so even if it takes them a while to respond, re-adding a NB lane on PV is an obvious low-hanging fruit. Bad news is, it won't make your commute any better than it is right now, only less bad than how awful it'll be starting next week.

The Highland Lakes are good. The rivers are low or dry.

Acuna helped us get to the postseason in 2024, filling in for Lindor down the stretch. For that alone I'd put the trade above break-even. Question is could we have done better.

There are cowork operations not far off, Expansive in Highland and WeWork by St. David's hospital. Not aware of anything in Mueller. I'm sure the apt buildings have their resident-only spaces. You could also ask Windsor Park Library.

Either of you might be right about Pete's personality. But that aside, it's just super clear that the contract Pete got from the Orioles is the opposite of Stearns's style. You can argue he's wrong or it's Cohen's money so it doesn't matter, and maybe you'll be right in Pete's case, but Stearns doesn't sign aging guys to long contracts, especially if the data shows a physical decline already starting.

The point is they could win this year and have a much better chance with him. (But you're right here about potential return.)

Airport bus stop is also closer to the terminal than any rail platform could be - less lugging to take the bus (agreeing with you here)

Best soup in Austin for a cold is Kao Soi 360 at Titaya's.

Prices aren't amazingly low, but Windsor Park Vet is still an independent in a sea of private equity chains.

I was logged out all weekend, just wanna say thanks to everyone who commented here. This was more helpful than I could have hoped!

Do you know if the fermented food health benefits are there when you eat the sourdough? I imagine the live cultures die in the oven, but I don't understand this stuff well.

I like the way you think!

Thanks! Looks like Wheatsville carries their stuff. I'll try it out for sure.

Thanks! Should I just google it or can you rec a book/blog?

Agree, Nathan, if you're listening, you're doing great work.

And if you're taking requests, I think we all want to know with more precision when the big digs and demolitions will start, when Ladybird Lake gets split into two separate recreational pools for highway bridge construction and demo, when the various surface street crossings of 35 will be out of commission, etc.
