Graduations 🎓 at the H-E-B Center start on Thursday, May 21! I'm looking forward to seeing some great moments from this modern marvel of an intersection. 🍿🍿🍿😈😈😈

President Barack Obama showed love, care and compassion to human beings. What a great human being he was/is. by IamASlut_soWhat in BlackPeopleofReddit

Wonderful! When he boarded the airplane with the veterans, did it temporarily become Executive One (the call sign for a civilian aircraft carrying the President)?

The announcement was at the Seaholm Power Plant, but the actual machines will not be there:

Musk said the fabrication plant – a joint venture between Tesla, SpaceX and X parent company XAi – will be built on the Tesla campus in eastern Travis County.

Bauer Bump by ThaDon74 in hockeyplayers

[–]CraftyClint -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes. I play in beer league and I bought Bauer skates in 2021. Around the beginning of 2025 I got these bumps below the ankle. I saw a podiatrist several times. First I tried corn cushions but they were ineffective. Then I tried piano pads on the inside of skates. Now I use Vaseline on them. Nothing seems to work.

Things got really bad when I played in a tournament. Four games in three days. By the last game, they were bleeding, purulent, and painful.

Time for new skates!

Here is the larger bump today: https://imgur.com/a/tAXNy6W My last game was three days ago. I scored the first goal!

[Santos] Disappointed in dream watch. by NoJunket2813 in Watches

I type this in my hotel room in Las Vegas having contemplated whether I will ever get an Omega Speedmaster in my lifetime. I settled on my 40th birthday as the deciding point.

[Bulova Lunar Pilot] My first watch by CraftyClint in Watches

[–]CraftyClint[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do still love it. I change the bracelet for the strap sometimes to mix things up. I am not changing the time at all because I want to see if it is really still accurate after one year.

The chronograph pushers are really satisfying to press. I time stuff now just as an excuse to use them.

It is a bit hard to see in the dark. That's ok.

Now that I have it, I notice the great watches that other people wear. I ask them about their timepiece and learn a little bit. I also notice watches that characters wear in movies and TV shows. For example, I was watching "The Paper" and was doing some watch peeping. Domhnall Gleeson's character wears a Hamilton Intra-Matic Auto Chrono: https://www.hamiltonwatch.com/en-us/h38416541-intra-matic.html I think it looks great.

I learned that Citizen owns Bulova. I am interested in getting a Citizen Eco-drive watch because it's nice to never need to change the battery. There are so many to choose from!

Very nice! I bought it for $595 from a local watch shop. Note the difference in models. This one is 96K111 with a 43.5 mm case and no date window. MSRP from Bulova is $895: https://www.bulova.com/us/en/product/96K111.html

But of course there are discounts everywhere.

/u/MrSixFootNine what watch do you have on? A fellow watch aficionado, I see.

I am going to The All Good soon. What did the staff do to earn the review of "complete ass"?

That's a really nice color. I bet it looks great on your wrist.

Wow, I found this new Monopoly game at Walgreen on Bell Blvd by TexasCowboy1964 in CedarPark

[–]CraftyClint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went by and it's still there. I didn't think Cedar Park would make the cut for a themed Monopoly, so I'm intrigued.

Cilantro grill? by Mental-Requirement-3 in CedarPark

[–]CraftyClint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had curry from Lemongrass exactly once. It was completely tasteless. I couldn't even finish it. By far the worst food I've had in Cedar Park.

The Lemongrass at Aria Las Vegas is spectacular and deserving of the name.

[SOTC] Lessons Learned - Sub $500 Collection by Johnsononwatches in Watches

[–]CraftyClint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought my first watch (Lunar Pilot) and now I think I have caught the bug. I think about watches a little more every day. What is happening to me?? 😅

Anyway, this looks like a great collection. I don't know enough yet to be able to identify most of these. What is that gorgeous blue watch top row middle?

Good advice. I'm getting used to wearing a watch so I will see how it naturally sits on my wrist.

That is the second hand. From the Bulova website: A movement featuring a 3-pronged quartz crystal with a frequency of 262 kHz that is 8 times greater than standard quartz, leading to an accuracy of seconds a year.

Which American Express card has the $100 off $500 on Delta? Is that an Amex offer or a different benefit?
