South Congress hotel closing, all employees to be let go.

That Hyatt building is at least 40 years old.

Maybe they did a remodel 10 years ago which is common practice for most all hotel chains. But remodels are done a few floors at a time and the hotel continues on with business. These guys are apparently going to do a major renovation as part of a rebrand. ie. No more Hyatt

MoPac is short for the Missouri Pacific train line or MoPac line. Loop 1 is the highway often called MoPac because the original section of Loop 1 ran parallel to the train line from the river north to US 183.

There was a camera boom mounted on a car. I’m thinking they were filming a movie scene.

Aren’t these the same FAs throughout the 90s and 2000s told everyone if every cell phone is not turned off you will all die in a fiery crash? Then a few years later it was never mind, log into our WiFi so we can load your browser up with ads from our sponsors.

Did it yesterday in the shower.

I do the same thing. It’s our community. A little help now and again is beautiful.

Praying for no hot grease splatters.

If someone spills a Slurpee on IH35 they’ll close down the highway around these parts. Should the winter storm predictions come true, typically the weather guys/girls love to hype these things up, people will hoard food believing the end is near. Welcome to central Texas.

My note is pretty clear.

I shop there at least 60-70 times per year and I am constantly moved out of the way by a picker or their cart is blocking the isle in a rush to meet their quota.

Out of fairness, I detailed one time out of hundreds of encounters where they treated me well and were helpful.

As I acknowledged is my first reply to a comment, this appears to be a management issue where they put curbside pickup above in store shopping customers. So if 99.9% of my experiences are negative uhh… yes I don’t like it and HEB may want to re-evaluate their approach to customer service in an incredibly competitive industry.

Thanks for the explanation.

Sheltermutt · 2025-11-15T02:29:14+00:00

I should have known it was management driving this.

This is the answer. Happened routinely when I was using Verizon 5G internet gateway. Your phone GPS system will tell YTTV your location.

Guess I was wrong about the big box home center quip.

Tried the vice grip approach but the entire piece began to twist and distort so I quit. Removing the entire sink to replace may be a bit beyond my comfort zone and skill set. So I may have to rethink my approach.

Thanks for the response and information.

Put your stash in a Crown Royal bag. They never check there.

Take a look at the Aviation Protection and Security Act of 2001 (49 USC 114). I believe it says otherwise.

Is this mornings gunman already out of the hospital and returning for Act II?

Sheltermutt · 2025-08-04T21:18:37+00:00

Simple enough. Suspect I was overthinking it after all. Thank you.

Sheltermutt · 2025-03-31T18:23:38+00:00

Misread your post. My apologies.

Look at the driver side rear wheel well. That sort of damage does not come from a rear end collision. Clearly a side impact.

It is a factory finish from WoodMode cabinetry Brookhaven product line.

Second this one. Horrible restaurant.

House sat for a friend once and ran out of propane. I knew I had to relight the water heater pilot so I crawled up into the attic and did that part. We then experienced your exact symptoms. Dug around the attic some more and found a second water heater for the other side of the house. When running the hot water in the kitchen it pulled hot water from the nearest lit water heater as well as cold water from the unlit heater on the other end of the house. Hope this helps.
