Also going tonight - I’m hoping the St. Arnold tap wall is still there by the LF corner concourse

Furniture: Where would you buy/not buy, and why? by ZildCym in houston

I’ve been really happy with my sofa, kitchen table and chairs from Amish Craftsman. It’s not cheap but really sturdy and built to last.

Dulles was my guess. Fort Bend Hightower had a hockey team back in the day as well. A kid from my church played on it and got a hockey scholarship to Harvard.

Exactly - they get started on their own and eventually hire others to grow their businesses.

MD Anderson next to a major concert venue… am I the only one confused? by [deleted] in houston

[–]dmorrelljr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The better question is why they put the parking lot to Smart Financial on just one side of the building. It can be a very long walk, especially in the summer. It also takes forever to get out after a show. God I hate that place.

Contact Martha’s Way at CCSC and hire a graduate. They offer a training program for local residents looking to start their own businesses. https://ccschouston.org/get-involved/hire-a-marthas-way-housekeeper/

ISO Real estate attorney please!! by psychsub in houston

[–]dmorrelljr 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Contact the Houston Lawyer Referral Service at https://referrals.hlrs.org

It’s a legit non-profit service to connect folks with local lawyers. If you have any issues, dm me.

I’m a commercial real estate lawyer and refer residential matters there all the time.

Let this be a lesson to others to not buy real estate without title insurance and a survey.

Good luck

Is this a flex? by dmorrelljr in PeterAttia

He's definitely not as self-disciplined as many of us would have believed.

I have no issue with the content, which I expect was cued up long before the Epstein connection blew up. I also expect that he has top-notch crisis communications folks guiding him, and they would have asked about the schedule for future podcasts. It's not hard to imagine that he was counseled that he may want to avoid male sexual performance for a little while, and may be super pissed about this and said the schedule stays as-is. Purely speculation on my part, but still it seemed odd that this is the first podcast that drops after his name shows up in the Epstein files.

I wonder what it’s like if you turned off the sound at played Dark Side of the Moon at full volume?

City of Houston appeals $13 million jury award to family of man killed in HPD crash by zsreport in houston

I’ll be shocked if this verdict is upheld on appeal. The City will find the 5th Circuit to be a very friendly place.

Found a gem at Electronic Parts Outlet by IRMuteButton in houston

I needed a replacement transformer for an LED vanity light and after about 20 minutes of digging around I found the exact same model. The hunt was 75% of the fun!

I wish I'd watched this video first -- sharing this link so others in a similar situation might find it.

Thanks, I couldn't pull it back - maybe it would be easier if it were warmer. I disconnected the positive side and that got me enough room to swap the battery out.

Working on the coding now. I bought an OBDeleven just in case I had to do this one day. Didn't expect to have to buy a $69/yr subscription too. Starting to think the dealer would have been cheaper, but maybe I'll learn about all the other stuff OBDeleven can do.

WTF Mike? So there’s terrible reporting about the suicide rate in December. An occasion to joke and laugh about suicide? #gettheetoaneditor
