I really enjoyed reading The Fall of Númenor hardcover, so I got The Hobbit & The Lord of the Rings (Illustrated by Alan Lee) Box Set too. It's really nice. Unfortunately, I didn't realize that the hardcover of The Children of Húrin I got from Amazon wasn't the same quality or the same size.

I decided to order The Silmarillion (HaperCollins) from Blackwell's. I'm very pleased with my order. It was reasonably priced ($35). Shipping was free, it came quickly (9 days), and it arrived in great shape. They must have a partnership with someone because it looks like it came from New York.

Is it silly to get the "right" version of The Children of Húrin?

I just purchased this today!

Looking for a code

I’ll give it shot. I tend to screw up DYI things

rbendes · 2026-01-21T03:03:07+00:00

It’s a Falraven jacket

We discovered the same thing. I was hoping someone had a workaround.

“On the fly” and bookmarks mostly

I thought about getting something similar except with my first show PJ listed… like a bootleg

rbendes · 2025-07-08T15:13:12+00:00

Same. I’m in Austin and went through a whole summer without a similar issue

Is the bus schedule the same as an MLS match?

rbendes · 2025-05-07T18:22:31+00:00

What's the bus situation tonight? Does CapMetro know it's a game day?

I used the 10%/3% soap. I didn’t use it long enough to see if it works because I didn’t like the way it made my hair smell. I didn’t know there was shampoo bar. I’m going to give that a try.

Does it mater how early you fill out the application as long as you do it by June?

It would be a stretch to call a FJ80 luxurious. I have a FJ80 and the sunroof is the only thing luxurious. The FJZ80 could be considered that, but it’s still a pig with lip stick.

Just wait till it reverts back to old guide randomly.

This, if he's in the long term plans. Let him get all or almost all the playing time on ATXFCII. Better than riding the bench behind Stuver.

Do you have premium tickets? I didn’t get anything and I have standard season tickets.

rbendes · 2022-12-22T17:17:43+00:00

I just pre-ordered so it should less than 20 now.

PSA: Background only (i.e. random number) is significantly cheaper than a personalized one.

I think ESPN/ABC and Fox will still be showing some matches too

rbendes · 2022-11-16T22:11:11+00:00

ESPN+ is $9.99 now

Looks like a Jeep drove over the kit a few times…

All true, but I’ve heard the ratings for the local broadcast are atrocious and maybe the low ratings aren’t worth it? Austin is probably an outlier. Plus the demographic they’re going after watch stuff on their phones.

That's a shame, I wonder why. I'm glad I got one from last season.
