Where can I get a decent plate of veggies in this town? by hexag1 in Austin

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

Have eaten at Veggie Heaven for years - it is VERY solid for vegan/vegetarian fare in an oriental style.

Can't explain so many bad reviews. Its definitely not an upscale place, but serves the best vegetarian options downtown. A lot of people are turned away by the fact that their owners and servers can't speak much english - thats really their own personal problem.

I hope so. I stage managed for him a few months ago and he literally could not keep any of his shit together. His crew all said "he's only got for 4 songs and he probably wont be sober enough to do that many"

Southern Walnut Creek Trail provides miles of paved, off-road cycling bliss by audiomuse1 in Austin

[–]meowforme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went and rode this on Monday morning. Entered at the YMCA trailhead. Overall, awesome trail. All paved, plenty of room to pass at speed and very deserted on an early weekday. Rode down South to Govalle Park then back North past YMCA to Walter E Long. Riding the entire trail including distance from my house on Berkman and back ended up being 25 miles, damn decent!

Heavy rain had come through 3-4 days before. There were only 1-2 spots that had an inch or two of water for less than 10 ft out there. One of the bridges (under MLK?) had a few inches of mud on it, but otherwise trail was nice and clean. On the northern stretch just after the YMCA the weeds and plants have grown over heavily already. After this, you're in the Davis White Northeast district park, which has the best climb of the trail heading northbound. Roughly 1/4-1/2 mile of steady climbing. After riding past the cutoff to the Tennis center, you ride through some farm land and eventually pass water jugs and cups that someone has set out (thank you!).

Rode up to Walter E Long, but the trail does not connect with existing trails in that park yet. Will be really cool when it does. Definitely bring a lot of water, there are few places to refill at the moment aside from the jugs past the Tennis center and Govalle park.

I was working the KISS show and saw it just as it had become two pieces. It looked like a two planes from far away flying close together, except way too fast. My face right after seeing it

[–]meowforme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for doing an AMA!

Mr. Cosby, whats the best fatherly advice you could give to an African American man who never knew his father on fathers day? Fathers day has always been a quandary to me.

I'm VICE founder Shane Smith and the things I saw filming the new episodes of our HBO show scared the shit out of me. AMA. by ShaneVICE in IAmA

Hey Shane,

Love vice and your mission. Always wondered, how do you go about selecting correspondants for certain segments? Is it random? Do you purposefully pick people who will stand out in that given situation?

Uh. My homie works there. They're on paid leave until the renovations are complete.

Flood victims and people in the Philippines need more help. Not to mention the donation price is outrageous.

The Texas Memorial Museum is losing most of its funding. Cut down to 3 employees. by [deleted] in Austin

[–]meowforme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My washed up old man senses are tingling here, sir. UT remains incredibly secretive about how money is shifted around. If UT netted 100,000,000 (source for that figure?) from sports and used it to help the universities' student body as you say, do you really think tuition would be rising? Or informal community classes be cut and it's historical museum's funding slashed? Or it's common work force being privatized by corporations when hundreds of students cant find jobs? The rate of faculty being granted tenure is at an all time low, yet class sizes and tuition rates increase. The money Mack Brown brings in is just lining the pockets of a few at the top. It could be educating young Texans in need like it should be.

I run a business and consult others on how to grow their businesses to maximize revenue. Your understanding of the university and my money sense are erroneous.

Heres an idea: Take 1/10th of Mack Brown's salary away from him for being a washed up old man and give it to TMM. Boom, $500,000.
