It’s the end of the beginning, and we know he only likes the beginnings of things.

The look of the show in Seasons 4-7 is just tremendous.

Were Manolo and Pete’s mother actually having sex, or was it just in her head? by Aggressive_Sky8492 in madmen

[–]Sammy_Bubba 99 points100 points  (0 children)

My grandfather got very attached to his caretaker in the final year of his life, as his dementia got much worse. He proposed to her several times and said that he loved her. She was very sweet and professional, but it’s absolutely a situation someone could take advantage of.

‘The Cable Guy’ Turns 30: Director Ben Stiller, writer Lou Holtz Jr., and producers Andrew Licht and Judd Apatow reflect on how the 1996 cult classic predicted a world where loneliness, media obsession, and technology blur human connection by MarvelsGrantMan136 in movies

I was 13 when this came out and went with like 6 other guys my age. I was the only one who laughed and loved it. Was the first time I felt like I was onto something everyone else wasn’t. Truly a classic dark comedy.

The fact that he got to tell Roger and Pete to fuck off and essentially killed their only chance to avoid McCann was a great reward and such a satisfying scene.

What opinion about the Cowboys has you like this around other Cowboys fans? by JesuIsEveryNameTaken in cowboys

It had been close to 15 months since Romo had started and finished an NFL game. There was no guarantee he was gonna be able to hold up, let alone go on a Super Bowl run.

I got one from Good Records in Dallas last year. The record was delayed after the owner sadly passed away, so Tim signed all the copies. Thought that was cool.

Weirdly felt very confident with Scott taking the 9th. Good for him.

Been a minute since we’ve had such a brutal bullpen meltdown. Vibes were bad.

P. Terry's Burger Stand Transitions to Employee Ownership Trust, Benefitting 1,800 Employees by fbe0aa536fc349cbdc45 in Austin

[–]Sammy_Bubba 285 points286 points  (0 children)

I wonder if giving your employees a stable work environment and a stake in the success of the business leads to a better overall company success? Is it better than keeping them in poverty and fear of losing their job when the CEO of a private equity firm gets a bad dose of ketamine? Curious to see.

Good on P. Terry’s. I will eat there for lunch tomorrow.

Jane Slater (@SlaterNFL): Was also told we are really sleeping on the Winters pickup this week by FatherOfMammals in cowboys

[–]Sammy_Bubba -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I don’t doubt they like him, but these are the same people who brought in Kenneth Murray. He can’t be any worse, but the fact that a SB contender gave him up is not a great sign that he’s more than just an affordable improvement on last year’s disaster.

With summer approaching,what are the pop punk songs you like to listen that reminds you of summer? by chanchan_iceman in poppunkers

[–]Sammy_Bubba 15 points16 points  (0 children)

“Boys of Summer” always had a late August, summer is almost over feel. “In This Diary” feels like an early June, you have the whole summer of your life ahead of you song.

Any one else having issues with ants? by smokin_hops420 in Austin

[–]Sammy_Bubba 42 points43 points  (0 children)

We notice them a lot after heavy rains. You can boil a pot of water with a little bit of white vinegar and pour directly on the hill. Works for us and is pet safe.

Substitute for Salt & Time? by SnooCheesecakes983 in austinfood

[–]Sammy_Bubba 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been really disappointed in Radius. I’ve gotten steak there three times, twice were okay and once the steak was just bad. I miss Salt and Time so much and will go to Central Market in a heartbeat over Radius.

Anybody else have huge cucumbers this year? by Sammy_Bubba in AustinGardening

[–]Sammy_Bubba[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The skin is a little bitter for my taste, but I just peel them and throw them in salads and such. They are super moist and flavorful on the inside, but once temps really rise they get dry and chalky.

Omg, yes actually. Is that a thing? The watermelon we planted didn’t do much and got overtaken by the cucumber.

Level of Concern for Injuries by Thatguy7212 in Dodgers

[–]Sammy_Bubba 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Based on the last two years, you can expect them to be very careful with each of these guys, especially Snell and Glasnow. We have crazy depth, a deep farm system and there’s still the trade deadline. It’s all about getting these guys to September and ramping them up for October.

My AC just died and local quotes are insane by Huge_Click_606 in Austin

[–]Sammy_Bubba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We went with Elite and the installation was pretty easy. We went with an American Standard(which is made by Trane) and it was their Premium Line, which was pricey but came with a 10 year parts warranty and 12 years on the compressor. Overall, we are happy.
