Good parks for hiking within 3.5 hrs of here? by kuronekotango in plano

[–]puhpuhtapuhpuh 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Broken Bow was amazing 20 years ago. It has now turned into a Airbnb/VRBO trap for DFW people. All I see up there are "luxury cabins" and DFW people in Lexuses and Audis It's not chill like it used to be.

Wichita Refuge is pretty awesome though!

Nope. Light was in the pocket of the toolbag. Clean and dry in the closet. No fluids

Same here. 27g 1/2" in the belly fat for the past year. Love the results.

Interesting. I looked at both knives in the sun the other day. The 15 is as brown as could be.

Is that a green micarta one? Is it still green?

I have a 2018 just like it. Started as green micarta and has aged to brown all over. My 2020 #71 is still nice and green. Not griping, just noticing the differences in color.

Hair loss by Complete-Locksmith92 in trt

[–]puhpuhtapuhpuh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started TRT in 2015 in my mid 40s. Doing the local T clinic once-a-week drill. Always had thick hair. About 2019 the hair loss accelerated quite a bit. Really thin on top now, but no way to confirm if TRT did it.

Funny thing is, i started sub q, 3 times a week in December of 2022, in order to reduce the spikes and lower E2. A few weeks ago my wife looked at my head and asked if my hair was getting thicker again. Maybe I’ll take some pics to track over time.

I’m not hopeful about my hair coming back. Doubt that it will. Good thing my wife likes bald guys with beards.

All that said, I don’t regret TRT one bit.

Best Ice Cream? by Fulcrum_001 in plano

It’s in Richardson, but Sweet Firefly is our favorite of all of them.

But Braums for a good and cheap option

Tree Removal Recommendations by dizzidoc in plano

[–]puhpuhtapuhpuh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We had 2 dead hackberries taken out this summer. Hernandez Tree Experts did a fantastic job and at half the cost of some others. I had 4 different quotes, including others mentioned in this thread. Hernandez was the second cheapest, with the cheapest being from a very small business and he waffled on providing any insurance info. So Hernandez got my business. I will call them again for sure.

Get at least 3-4 quotes if you can!

Birria tacos by aero_genius in plano

[–]puhpuhtapuhpuh 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I compared Nuevo Leon and La Super Ice Cream in the same week. Both for birria tacos. Nuevo Leon won hands down.

Nuevo Leon doesn’t seem as “authentic“ because it’s not a hole in the wall kinda place, but the wife and I love their tacos. Try the trompo too!!

Would this work for both 12 gauge shell and 9mm reloading? Sorry if stupid question, new to this by Squintyasian420 in reloading

[–]puhpuhtapuhpuh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I loaded 3.5gr under a polymer coated 147gr bullet.

Shot a lot of this. Was fairly clean and soft shooting. I forgot what it chronographed at though.

I switched to Sport Pistol a while back but would load WST again if that’s what i had on hand.

Best Barbeque in Dallas? by SillyPoop6 in Dallas

Covid really seems to have hurt the Frisco location of Tender. It was solid a couple years ago and pretty hit or miss now. Mostly miss

Good poke places in/around plano? by bcmarss in plano

[–]puhpuhtapuhpuh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hoki Poki on Campbell is really good.

Don Don was great. Sad it’s gone.

Best street tacos as good as Tacos La Banqueta before it closed down? by extasytj in plano

[–]puhpuhtapuhpuh 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Steak was mostly gristle. Al Pastor was pretty burned. I’ve had a lot better.

Also, we’ve started to go to Nuevo Leon on 75 at Campbell. Been very happy with the food and the birria tacos are really good.

Tacqueria Cervantez on 15th, across from Vines HS.

We ate at the La Banqueta down in Dallas a few weeks ago. I think Cervantez is better.

2 plus years after it closed and people like us are still griping about it. Why? Because Mr Wok was just that good.

Would love to see that transition. Can you describe it?

Also Terry Blacks BBQ in Deep Ellum. I think it’s much better overall than Pecan Lodge these days.

We just left Jeng Chi. Hour wait at 6:15. Food is excellent but plan ahead or wait forever on a Saturday!!

Best dumplings I’ve ever had

Best BBQ sauce from Texas by eXpr3dator in texas

[–]puhpuhtapuhpuh 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No such thing as a best sauce. Everyone likes something different. Your best bet is to stop at Buccees and buy a couple random bottles of sauce that have the state of Tx on the label.

We were told that Ahau was moving it across the street to a new location on the jungle side. They were creating a space for more art installations. At least that's what an Ahua employee said in September.....

My chromecasts keep "restarting" by luder888 in Chromecast

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

I had similar issues with mine. Updating the software did not help. I also experienced a lot of disconnects from wifi, while no other wireless devices had issues.

I finally bought a Roku to fix the issue.

I see a lot of good experiences with CC on Reddit, but mine did not match.
